Have had good performance and reliability from the following brands:

Hanabishi
3D
KDK
Asahi

I also have a Vornado 660 circulator... gets a breeze and the A/C airflow going around my irregularly-shaped living room.

Just know and understand what you need.... a traditional fan vs circulator. They have very different use cases, granted with some operational overlap.

One safety feature to look for is thermal protection. Motors can spontaneously fail (locked rotor, shorted windings, etc.), overheat, and start a house fire. Those equipped with a thermal fuse will trip before the motor gets too hot.
