Customers value the Tower Fan's cooling capabilities and quiet operation, with many appreciating its ability to effectively cool rooms and operate at a low noise level. However, some customers were disappointed that the product did not include a remote control as advertised, and a few found the fan's height to be insufficient for their needs. Positive feedback focused on the fan's strong airflow and overall performance. The lack of a remote and the fan's height were the main drawbacks reported.

It is slimmer and shorter than many of the best tower fans, but it can still cool a small or midsize room efficiently like the basement. It is least expensive fan and it’s not the most powerful fan.

Oscillates well
Prety decent air blowing even on lowest level it's not crazy loud it's great reason for low rating instead of 5 starts (fan gets 5 starrs) but says it comes with remote never did just the fan so 2 stars off for that.

This fan was just ok. Not worth the money.
It had a limited amount of air flow and sits low to the ground so it's difficult to feel anything higher than 3' up.
It was supposed to come with a remote but did not include it.
It only had a limited number of functions.
I ended up returning this one and getting a different desktop model that works much better.

I bought this item by seeing the other reviews. I noticed the remote control is not included in the package. The fan doesn't have the control to start and stop. The only option i am able to see is the timer. I thought, i am missing something or i might have understand the controls wrong. So, i took it to BestBuy customer care and explained the reason for returning it. He also checked and didn't find the start option. So, i returned this item because of no remote control in the package and no option for start/stop control. The quality of the fan is decent and i don't have complaints over it. But the fan is very small size and doesn't cover long distance.

The fan was pretty loud and ended up returning it for a different one. Also said it came with a remote and that it would be white. It was black and had no remote....

I actually got the black one. WE use it at the foot of our bed. It does not move the air as much as we thought it would by the description on the box.
It is good for in the bed room.
