Lasko Misto Outdoor Misting Blower Fan, Ideal for Sports, Camping, Decks & Patios, 3 Speeds, 15", Black, 7050

I purchased the Lasko Misto Outdoor Misting Blower Fan about five years ago for use on construction projects in the desert, and it is still running strong. It has been a lifesaver during the hottest months, helping keep the general work area at least 10 degrees cooler and making outdoor conditions much more tolerable. The three fan speeds provide good airflow, and the misting feature makes a noticeable difference in dry desert heat. It has proven to be durable, reliable, and well worth the investment. I highly recommend it for construction sites, patios, camping, sporting events, or anywhere you need relief from extreme heat.

I live in one of the hottest areas of the US, Phoenix. Lots of 115+ degree days this summer. I bought the Misto about two weeks ago, and quite simply, this thing is an absolutely amazing BEAST!!!! I use a stationary recumbent exercise bike on my patio 7 days a week....30-60 min per workout. Even in the early morning hours, temps are hovering around 85-90 degrees, which usually makes for a miserable workout. Impossible at mid-day. The Lasko Misto performs like a champ!! This is not a toy. Positioned about 7-8 ft. from the bike, it immediately drops temps at least 25 degrees, plus the powerful blower makes you feel like you're in a windstorm of mist. Out of the 3 levels of power, I usually run on a 2......more than enough. Now I can go out virtually any time of day, workout hard, and ignore the heat. (The first time that I turned it on, it was 85 outside, and I felt way too cold, since the Misto was only 5 ft. from my bike.) I finally tweaked the distance and angle to perfection. Everything is adjustable, mist output, blower speed, and blower angle. And since the unit is weatherproof, I leave it outside without worry. While I do agree with other posters that you wind up getting somewhat wet, especially after 30 minutes, I am 110% thrilled with this purchase. Kudos to Lasko. And Amazon's price is a real bargain.

I was impressed with all 3 fan speeds as it even does a pretty good job against Chicago area winds. The misting element surprised me, however. I expected it to be a very light mist, not actually soaking everything within half hour to hour or so. Umbrellas, cushions, clothes all set wet and dripping. I even lowered the water pressure but still kicks out same amount of wetness. Would be nice if there was a low, medium & high setting on the misting portion of machine as well. My female friends won't sit on patio when it's on because it ruins their hair. I'm bald so no biggie but I can only use my waterproof cell and not tablet while it's on, even set on "1" and pretty far from sitting area. Very well made and sturdy yet light enough to easily carry. DEFINITELY buy the filter cartridge sold separately!! I'm sure this is perfect for those just sunbathing in backyard.

It works very well. In fact you can get pretty wet on the low setting. It keeps me really cool when I’m working in my flowerbeds in 100 degrees weather. I heartily recommend it.

***NOTE others have said they were disappointed at not being able to adjust the height of the misting nozzles. Well I was scrolling through this listing and underneath the item in the "From the Manufacturer" section where they talk about all the features and have a bunch of pictures, you can clearly see it pivots. :) I just got this yesterday and opened up the box, brought it inside to check it out, and plugged in the fan. I could not believe how quiet this is. Others have said that but until you have it next to you it's hard to believe it sounds about the same as a regular household fan, and smooth sounding. I also tested out the pivot feature and yep, the whole middle part that houses the fan and misting nozzles can easily be moved up or down. I tested it and it can be aimed at the floor (not sure why you'd want to do that) and then upwards from there. You can have the nozzles themselves pointing straight up. I was SO happy to have read about this feature that it seems many are not aware of. You just grab ahold of that middle section, one hand on each end, and you can easily move it to whatever position you want it. The fan is amazing and like others have said definitely blows air a long way out. I cannot believe this small unit can move air that far, and as quietly as it does. I'll update this review in a few months after having used it for some time. The bag with the manual even came with 3 extra misting nozzles! Pretty nice bonus there. And manual says you can order more nozzles as well as the filter that is in the hose adapter nozzle.

This is how the kids and I survive summers in Arizona! Great power! Great coverage! Bought it after borrowing our friends! It's a must have for summers! Airflow is strong makes it across our patio! Super quiet compared to our other large fan we have! Just hear the misters!

This machine really is wonderful. I live in Arizona and is very dry and hot so having the misting fan is super helpful, it truly does lower the temperature by about 30° if you’re in the direct spray. If you’re standing too close, you will get wet, obviously it’s spraying water. I use this in my aviary to keep my birds cool and they love it. I really do wish there was a way to control the flow of water though, make the mist finer or Be able to control how many nozzles are missing water at a time, currently it’s just on or off no ability to control the volume of water coming through it, if you try to turn the hose down It’s simply stoppes mistng and starts dripping. I let this run constantly and for the heat of the day, 6 to 8 hours. In the evening everything in there is pretty drenched. I don’t need as much water as air movement, so adjustable sprays would be super helpful, But otherwise, really fantastic.

I really like the concept of this misting fan. It puts out a great deal of missed even on the lowest setting. What I don’t like is how short the cords are both the electrical cord and the waterline are insanely short. You have to have the Ideal set up with your electricity and your water source in order to make this work. I wish I had known this before I bought it.

Me gusto mucho el ventilador Buena calidad de aire frío Aún no intento de ponerle el agua pero imagino que es súper bueno

Just not working, worked only once.

Bought this to help for those super humid days - have used it - blows well and mist is nice feature to keep cool on deck when it is so humid - my husband says he feels like he is sailing - wind and mist combo!

I’ve had this for two years now and it’s made hot summer days on the deck much more enjoyable in cool when the sun is blazing. I use my deck much more while it’s blistering hot out, and the dog loves it too! Would highly recommend this mister.

Es muy bueno para estar en el jardín pero ya en la terraza deja todo mojado despues de pocos minutos. Le daría 5 estrellas si tuviera repuestos de menor flujo o tapones para cancelar 1 o 2 de los 3 que tiene para poder bajar la intensidad de rocío.
