Thank you for reaching out to Lasko Products. We're sorry to hear that the fan is not performing as expected. We understand how disappointing it can be when the unit is set to the highest speed and the airflow still feels very weak. We also appreciate you sharing the issue you're experiencing with the remote, where the batteries need to be removed and reinserted each time for it to function. Your feedback is important to us, and we'd like the opportunity to assist you further.
