Honeywell - Advanced QuietSet 16" Pedestal Fan - Black

I bought this fan to help move around central air-conditioning air in our bedroom and hallway. We've been running it on low which works well because of the large fan size (16 inches) and is so quiet it is difficult to tell if it's on. Obviously, at higher settings there will be more sound, but at the low setting it's remarkable. The fan has some very nice features. Different shades of blue soft lighting on the control panel indicates fan speed, there's a remote to control speed and power, and, my favorite, the fan comes apart easily for cleaning . By that, I mean both the front and back of the fan screen easily come off the motor, the fan blade itself completely separates from the shaft with just a plastic screw-on cap (reverse thread) and can be dusted or washed as needed. Some minor complaints: The fan can be raised and lowered on its support shaft by lifting the upper part and and locking it in place by rotating the upper shaft about a half turn to the right. Unfortunately, if you want to move the fan head to the left, you can easily unlock that setting and the fan will sink down the shaft. This is just a short distance from full height (42 inches) to its lowest height (32 inches) and it slides down slowly. By just lifting the fan to rotate it, this problem can be solved. One other point: the fan cage can have a slight rattle when its operating. I put a small clip on the top and bottom edge of the fan cage which stopped the vibration completely. Overall a great fan.

This fan is not as strong to move air. However, that is not my issue with this fan. Within less than 5 days of use, this fan is quiet alright when it is set to the fixed mode; but when it is in rotating mode it makes rustling or crackling noise when the plastic of the head rubs on the plastic of the support mechanism during rotation. For people who get bothered by a dripping faucet or loud clock ticking, this sound falls into that category. Imagine the crackling noise at 20~30 seconds interval, for me that was irritating. The sturdiness of the structural design is good; it is heavy and solid. But the rotating design and technology fall short of being good. Other alternative is the Honeywell 1655, which is much quieter. That could be coupled by the strong Honeywell Double Blade Pedestal Fan to move a large quantity of air.

The fan works great and is very quite. The wireless controls are a nice convenience too. I have only two issues the first being that the fan stand is a little shorter than it looks in the picture. Yes its adjustable but it does not go up that high. Second, the pivot on the actual fan is really weak meaning it always falls down and the fan aims low, you tilt it up and its okay as long as you don't bump the fan otherwise it will drop down. Other than that I really like the fan. :-). The only thing keeping this from 4 stars is that Pivot. It would be nice is it would lock into place. I ended up having to place the fan on a box to get the appropriate height needed.

Purchased this fan back in June 2017 and I'm now filing my 2ND warranty claim with Honeywell (Kaz.com) as the first fan stop working and now the replacement fan they sent alsp stop working 2days ago. Fortunately for me the replacement fan is just 3day OVER the extended warranty and will send me a courtesy replacement fan BUT w/o further warranty. So if the 3rd fan stops working, I'm on my own. I would suggest to get the BestBuy protection plan/warranty, getting a replacement...should the fan stop working will make the exchange much easier.

First the positives: it is very quiet on high and it was relatively inexpensive when I bought it on deal of the day. Now the negatives: it is relatively quiet because it doesn't push that much air, even on high. The fan head only tilts down and not up, that's bad because the vertical stand adjustment is only about six inches. Therefore, overall the fan is simply too short. I'm sure the remote control would come in handy for many people but I don't use it very often. I will probably buy another fan with a larger fan blade that tilts upward.

This fan does exactly what the advertisement says it does; it cools with a press of a button from either a couch, a bed or a lounging chair and is very quiet. Assembly is super easy and quality appears long lasting. My only disappointment would be that the remote doesn’t come with batteries and the steel foot is huge and heavy. So when you move around the fan, you need strength and balance as to not fall or trip while transporting it places.

I bought this fan for supplement to A/C. It works great and is very quiet. I use it a night in the bedroom. The timer feature is fantastic. I can select a one-hour or two-hour, three-hour or four-hour time period and the fan auto shuts off. On the lowest setting, when the fan is at the end of the bed, I can barely hear it and it does not interrupt sleep at all. It is just what I wanted to move the humid air that settles during the night hours.

Purchased this little over a month ago and it stop working already. I can hear it humming when the power is on but the fan is not spinning unless I remove the cover and manually spin the fan. Called Kaz the warranty company for Honeywell and advised me that it may take up to 4 weeks before I get my "repaired" fan back. Try returning it back to BestBuy but they won't take it since it passed the 30day return period.
