It was mostly a white noise machine, but I did appreciate the air movement during hotter months.

Literally only ever turned it off when it needed to be unplugged to move it/clean it, which happened maybe... oh, 5 or 6 times? Had been running constantly otherwise.

Now it's dead. RIP, buddy.

... if anyone has good box fan recs, I'm all ears

When I discovered I sleep significantly better with my tower fan on, Ive kept it on almost nonstop since then save for power outages and moving.

I might try running a white noise app on my phone tonight but idk if it'll be the same.

I don't have anything on hand that can readily replace it.

Back in 2018 my box fan died and I couldn't get a replacement for it for a while, so I found this video which helped me sleep well every night for over a month or more.

RIP

I always liked the sound box and desktop fans make while sleeping.

I literally can't sleep if there's not a fan running in my room.

I got a box fan on the discount rack, 75 or 50 percent off. Had a small crack on the front. Didn't affect the fan at all.
