2 Hampton Bay branded high velocity floor fans, 20" and 12" in size.
The 20" model is an SMC product, model SVF 20. It is dated April 2002, and was likely stocked at The Home Depot for the summer of 2002. It is an unbelievably powerful fan, quite possibly the most powerful 20" high velocity fan I've tested. There is still a descendant of this model in production, the iLiving ILG8F21 "Turbo High Velocity Fan", and while it is an excellent product by today's standards, it's definitely not as robust as this one in the video.
The 12" model is a Patton product, model HBF 12. It is dated April 2001, and was likely stocked at The Home Depot for the summer of 2001. There exists a Patton branded equivalent in a different color scheme. This unit has among the best startup sounds I've ever heard, especially for a small fan.
It's odd to me that Hampton Bay chose two different manufactures to make 2 models of fans that quite possibly sold side by side on the same shelf the same year. I am unsure of how long each was in production. I recall seeing the 20" model at the The Home Depot many years ago in the 2000s, but not the smaller 12". Patton did produce a similar 14" model, I am unsure if it ever surfaced under the Hampton Bay brand or not. The Hampton Bay brand is the The Home Depot's store brand and is sold there exclusively.
