WANTED: Sears/Kenmore 20" Window Fan, NOW FOUND!

[Colin]

I've wanted this fan ever since I was a little kid. The picture I have was from an empty box in my friend's basement I think from a long time ago. It's 3 speeds and electrically reversible with a thermostat. I was able to come up with a model number which is: 4539020100. If anyone has seen one of these or knows someone who has it, please let me know. Thanks!

that's a dayton,not sears kenmore,if it's a sears kenmore,it would said it on the box like the one in pic colin posted but the one seller has says dayton on it but i believe sears kenmore and dayton are same but just the store's own label(which it's sears/kenmore)...

40 bucks is not that bad of price but IMO i perfer to pay less than that if it was up to me.

It's a Lasko/Galaxy made window fan. I don't think brand name really matters in this case. They're quite powerful on exhaust but intake, they're awful, unfortunately. The blade was only designed for one direction.

i agree on the brand name comment.. to me it doesn't matter either,i just pointing out the truth(or towards the truth) what i saw in the pic(s) seller posted on the dayton fan and pic colin posted

IMO i like both of them,they both beat todays garbage(the small twin crap)

Hm! I was just in Plymouth for a ceiling fan when I was down there. Sorry I wouldn't be able to grab that for you now in the case that they're not interested in shipping and such.

Yea the brand doesn't matter to me much, I was just going by what was on the box and what I found here: www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-model/Kenmore-Parts/Fan-Parts/Model-4539020100/0582/0909400/00040516/00001
And thanks anyway Cole, I'm just glad to see that this thing isn't extinct because I can never find them, but now that I know they still exist, I'll just have to look harder locally.

I found one on eBay too, but this guy is nuts if he thinks someone is going to pay 83 bucks for a 20 year-old window fan over-sprayed with green paint.

Okay so I actually got this thing a few months back, but I never had a chance to post it until now since I just wrapped up my spring semester. It's taken me double digits in years to find this thing and now I FINALLY found one in great condition in the original box. I don't have a pic of the box because it's in storage, but here's the fan in all its plastic glory. This thing is awesome and moves great air on exhaust. It also doesn't rattle or make nearly as much noise as my 9166. This thing is EXTREMELY smooth and very quiet running. I'll try to get a video when I have more time.

very nice,there is a connection between your fan and my robinson box fan i got at the goodwill a month ago,both got the same plastic 4 bladed fan blade

[Colin]

Thanks Jeremy, the blade does look to be the same shape as your fan. Interesting.

[Jean Lemieux]

Awesome. I love those four blades. It's rare to see a window fan with four blades. Especially a plastic one.
