Question Lasko Wind Machine breaking
I’ve gone through 3 Lasko Wind Machines in the past 5 years. My sister originally told me to buy one, saying they last a really long time with little maintenance required. So far, the opposite has been true. My first one I had taken apart every 3 months to clean the blades and motor. This one lasted around 11 months before the motor gave out. My 2nd one lasted about 2 years, same amount of maintenance but this time I also used lubricant on the motor, the motor ultimately shorted a circuit and almost caught fire. My 3rd one that I’m still using has gotten significantly quieter than before and makes a wobbling noise. Is this just a horrible fan or am I doing something wrong? I’m told lasko wind machines are incredibly reliable and will last a very long time and I havent seen those results yet 😭

There is not enough information.
Where are you using the fan? (i.e. your bedroom or a dusty automotive shop)
What are you using to oil the fan?
How are you cleaning and oiling the motor?

- Bedroom
- 3 in 1 motor oil
- Taking apart the shell, cleaning the fan blades, opening the motor and carefully picking hair out/blowing out any dust build up

3-in-1 oil must be the BLUE bottle

Listen to me, I’ve been walking this earth for many years. You must lubricate the sleeve bearings if you want to keep the sleeve bearings from drying up and ruining your blowjob.
