Absolute beast | 70s Electrohome 652-2C (Lakewood P23) box fan | Initial review

EDIT: It turns out the rattle on startup was just the grill. I did give it an oiling but unfortunetly, it didn't really help with the spindown time. Yet again. Another fan that I still can't believe I own. (Apologies for the lack of videos again) This is another one of those "childhood fans" (mainly thanks to youtube all those years ago hehe) and man, this thing used to put me in awe as a kid. The shiny blades, the startup sound and the awesome low pitch hum that the blades produced. I just knew that I had to have one but of course, bringing one back to the UK was no easy task back then and it still isn't today either. However, after all these years. Im finally able to experiance one for myself! Acquiring this fan was a bit of a story too. We were looking for a way to keep the ground floor cool in a rented house and while I was looking for some box fans to stick in the windows. This slightly-battered beauty showed up on FB marketplace for $100 CAD. After a bit of convincing and 2 hrs worth of driving, we got it home and my oh my, it sure does live up to the reputation of being a very solid and strong fan. Even though this example isn't in the best of condition, I still do appreciate its quirks such as the venturi/shroud (useful for window use) and some of the smaller details such as the wider handle and 4-riveted blades (thanks to my fellow fan collectors in the states for informing me on that). An oiling and cleaning will be in order at some point as this fan will be seeing a lot of use until I return next year God willing. Feel free to let me know what you guys think of this behemoth.
