    Looks nice but performance-wise very bad.

    Sleek, lightweight, looks nice. But performance is too bad. It says it is a whole room fan but we won't feel it even if we put it 3 feet next to you. I have used it at the max speed but pathetic performance

    Not Worth the Hype

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

    It's a weak fan that is fairly quiet, but ultimately ineffective. No way this cools an entire room. You'd be better off buying 3 normal fans for this amount of money.

      Thank you for sharing this feedback. This Honeywell fan will not push cooler air into the room to lower the temperature; it will circulate the air that is already in your room.

    Terrible !

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

    I got this fan instead of their reg blade quietset fan and they are terrible on the lowest settings, I have 2 new ones and they both make a racket on the lowest settings that I need on at night to sleep. It isn’t until you get to white noise that it settles down . Not quiet for a supposed quiet fan! Where’s the video option on here to show the problem?

    Super low air pressure

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

    Just got this last night , I had to place it right next to my bed in my face just to feel anything. My room gets so hot and this did not help at all. There’s hardly any air pressure on the highest setting. Returning today.

    LOUD!!!

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

    It’s called “quiet” set . It was loud and buzzy and hesitated and oscillation mode maybe it was just this particular fan that had issues, but I do have a friend that has the same one and it does make noise as well. He just deals with it.

    Not worth it

    This is a bad fan. It barely blows any air. Go ahead and splurge on a Dyson.

    I bought this yesterday because it had such great ratings. When I got home and assembled it and got it going it literally recycled all the hot air already in my room. Going back today. Disappointed.

    Its a very quiet fan but doesnt have any power even in 'POWER COOL'. It throws very little air, could barely feel it. For the price not worth it at all, will return.
