How wide is the base? If it is put on a carpet is it going to wobble and lean?

The base is a little over 19" and it doesn't wobble at all on carpet..I have two of these so far on two different types of carpet and neither one of them wobbles. There doesn't seem to be any vibration in the fan to cause any type of movement, just a steady smooth airflow and no sound. If it wasn't for the indicator light on the front and the breeze, I wouldn't even know it was running.

no. It's very stable. Not at all impressed with the air movement though. We love our laskos!! It's quiet for a reason...

There are five "arms" on the base. If you drew a circle, the diameter would be roughly 20". Mine is sitting on carpet and seems stable.

The base is not wide at all (19" diameter) but it is very well designed and does not wobble. I replaced an old fan with this one and the old fan had a huge 4 legged base that extended out to the walking path. This one fits nicely!

It's greatest fan I had so far , would highly recommended I have kept it on the wood floor like also on the rug and it did not wobble at all . For this price product is great !

The base is 20" wide with a five leg pattern. I use on it carpeting, no wobble issues at all. Nice and quiet.

Got the same measurement, go figure. :) Yeah, same thing: it's really stable, whether you have the head stationary or oscillating. We have pretty standard apartment carpeting (you know, low-pile, not "fuzzy" but thicker than office carpeting). And we have an Ikea area rug on top of that. The fan sits on that rug-on-carpet and is perfectly stable. It's really the best fan we've ever had. It's quiet enough that I sometimes actually have to look to see if it's moving. The head can be angled up or down as needed, there are five output settings, various auto shut-off settings, you can raise and lower the head. It's pretty outta control, seriously. AND there's a freakin' remote, for Pete's sake. Can't recommend it highly enough, really.

Most fans have a crisscrossed, 4-footed metal base, but this Honeywell QuietSet has a molded plastic, 5-footed star shape base. It is lightweight but kind of attractive and normally works well so I liked this cool fan enough to buy a second one...but, surprisingly, the second fan base DID have one warped foot that made it slightly unstable. No way to correct a plastic molding error so I just stuck something under it.

Depends on the kind of carpet I think I just put this on our semi-shag for a test, it is wobbly. But with heavy equipment it might work. Good luck

It's got a fairly long base and the weigh is balanced pretty evenly throughout l. As such, I believe that it would be stable on carpet (mine's in hardwood so I can't be sure). That said, I recommend heading to your local hardware store and getting one of their heavy weight anchor systems to affix it to a wall stud (particularly if it's being used in a child's room).

It seems very stable on the carpet flooring. Might slide on Harwood or vinyl

Yes. I believe the specs day larger. I put up a 42" flat screen. The base is quite heavy, so there's no bowing, leaning, or movement even on carpet. Stability is superb.

It has a lazy Susan type base. As for how much space for swiveling I usually leave about a 3-inch clearance on any one side.

Yes it is sturdy, although if placed on carpeting it may wobble a bit if you have padding under the carpet.

It rests on a small round very thick oriental carpet and it is very stable. I sometimes use a paper cutter on it without any fear of tipping.

I always use two hands, so no, it does not wobble. I can't imagine setting the base down. Would be very slow.

I have the mat on carpet and it does not wobble. My carpet is of normal thickness.

It stands on its own on hard wood. I'm not sure about carpet but would assume the same. I personally like to put one or two strips of rubber on the front, underneath, to prevent any possible tipping forward.

I returned it - it was wobbly and very narrow . Not too far off ground tho.

It's a bit wobbly on carpet, but I think it should be fine. I absolutely love this bookcase. It's very nice looking and was easy to put together.

I bought two of them and I have them on carpet. It doesn't wobble, tilt, or anything. Stands firm and is one of the best speakers I have bought. I highly recommend these.

I do not recommend this item on wood floors. I have carpet, and I still have to have this lean a little bit against a wall due to the poorly designed/made 3rd leg.

We placed this stand on medium pile carpet and it sits very securely. The stand is quite heavy and we believe it would sit securely on just about any surface, including thicker carpet.

It probably depends on the carpet but it really shouldn't be a problem on carpet. It's pretty sturdy.
