    The fan is effective when it's on. The remote has a very limited range, it's useless to me since the fan is in the corner of the bedroom and apparently that's too far away to operate from my bed. There is a rattling noise inside that just won't go, it's especially noticeable when the fan is on low. I would exchange it for another one if not for the very small return/exchange window of Best Buy. Overall not satisfied with this product.

      We apologize for any confusion. This unit is a fan; it is not an air conditioner. This unit will not push cooler air into the room to lower the temperature; it will circulate the air that is already in your room. If you require assistance, please reach out to us directly.

    If you're looking for a fan that simulates the feeling of a cat breathing on you, then this is your fan. If you're looking for something that actually puts air out, skip this one.

    It's not as quiet as some fans are. It was hard to assemble and put together. When moving the fan from one spot to a different spot the base bottom seemed to want to fall apart, and I would have to snap the pieces back together again. I didn't like it
