    This fan is quiet, slender, and beautiful! Works so very efficiently. Cool and VERY quiet. Was hesitant to buy this because I wanted it to be taller but, I am so happy I bought it! It is awesome! Am going to buy another one!!

    Works good but I’m a little confused as to why it is turning on and off by itself with not touching the auto off setting and changing speeds by itself..

    Basic fan

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Its an okay basic fan to me, I wish it blew a little harder. Its pretty quiet for the most part but super sensitive! Dont ever drop it the whole base will break easy! I would probably buy a different one next time.

    Easy and quick to put together. Almost completely quiet on lower levels. Can circulate air well around a mid-size room.

    I bought one of these from the closest best buy, and I made it home and put it together only to find it was not spinning on the inside. I returned it but they didn't have others so I got my refund, and then found a fan on Amazon. After receiving another fan broken from presumably shipping, I had to open RMA with Amazon and send it back and got the Honeywell Quietset again. I received it, it worked, but it had a loud humming noise up till level 5 and then it had a loud slight thumping noise. I gave up and got a refund for it as well, but was told to keep it rather than sending it back. So I contacted Honeywell to give them feedback on this fan as I found out someone else had the same issue with this fan, with the intention of just giving them feedback, nothing else. They actually sent me a new fan! I thought wow they are really trying to be helpful, and true to their word I got it a few days later. So I put it together, and the base wouldn't completely fit together as it should but I was able to get it on and turned on the unit, to be met with the same motor and horrible vibration noise that the other one did! So, disappointed, I admitted defeat and just decided to see if I can get used to the nerve-wracking noise. I turned it on to sleep, went to bed, and was able to fall asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night with a weird light "thumpthumpthumpthump" noise and i found out it only does it when it's set straight up and on the floor. This noise was way too much and I can't sleep with it on. So now, I have two new Honeywell tower fans, AND NEITHER OF THEM IS USEFUL. Needless to say, I'm gonna have a hard time trusting Honeywell products for a while. Their customer service, however, has been top-notch. It takes a while to get an answer from them (I used email) but when you do, they sincerely try to help. I just wish this product was as good as their willingness to help was. I Recommend steering clear from this one and getting the comparable Lasko which I hear is quiet in a mode or two, or the Dreo. You are taking quite the gamble if you purchase this fan. Either that, Or the Tower fan gods are against me, and I'm extremely unlucky when it comes to this fan. I'm not willing to spend any more money to find out.

    the only reason I'm giving a 4 stare review is because the bottom mount isn't flush with the actual fan

    The fan has a Many settings but ironically the sleep and calm setting seems to be the noisiest with a clicking sound.

    Not Good

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Not nearly as strong as you'd think. For as large as the front of it is, only about 40% of it actually pushes anything out. And the little amount of air it does produce only extends a few feet so unless it's RIGHT next to you, you might as well not have anything at all.

    Honeywell sucks

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This fan SUCKS. Its good when it works but after about 6 months the dust is INSANE. It literally has dust sticking out of the little vents. You want to take it apart and clean it?? Too bad you cant because theres no video on how to take it apart and clean it and theres no way to undo the sides without actually banging something against it. Threw it in the trash, save your money, buy a different brand.
