Great for personnel use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm writing this review after 1 year of use. It's super quiet and I used this last summer. It won't disturb sleep.
I would recommend this to a friendIt decent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would recommend buying if your looking for a quite fan but for a maximum air flow I would go for something else
I would recommend this to a friendAir conditioner
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s okay it not cold or cool but it better then not having one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendQuiet
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love that it's quiet but it's not as strong as I had hoped for. Good for a warm stuffy day but not much against 80+ degree weather
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBought a dud
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fans is quiet and airflow is not the best. I would turn the fan on and it would randomly turn off and then turn back on. Or I would set it to highest fan setting and turn on oscillation and it will stop oscillating and go to lowest air setting, all without touching the remote or buttons on the fan. Only had the fan for 2 days and will definitely return.

Great fan
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great fan for distributing airflow. Highly recommend having an AC hear it from behind to spread out cold air.
I would recommend this to a friendQuite but can’t expect much air with this
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quite but not much air. I tried all the options to increase the wind but no use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAverage fan.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Average. One gets what he pays for, I guess. This unit is OK.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendHorrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t blow out a lot of air. I have a Lasko Tower Fan that is perfect and less expensive. I chose this because it was in stock at my local store but wish I returned it to get my money back. I’m very disappointed.

Squeaky fan, with twice the squeak!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely awful experience. The first one I got the remote was broken and had squeaky fan bearings. So it was replaced by Honeywell (or Helen of Troy, the company that actually manufactured this pile of words I can’t say). And the replacement I got had a horrid electrical whine, making it unusable for sleeping, which is what I got it for (because the name quietset kind of implies it will be, you know, *quiet*?) While I’ve heard many sing the praises of this fan, and I do admit that I may just have a serious case of bad luck. From my own personal experience, I cannot recommend this fan. And I suggest that Honeywell find a new business partner to manufacture their consumer fans. With a commercial pedigree as successful as Honeywells, this is a travesty.

Not that quite
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice fan. It says quite. Not that quite at high speeds
I would recommend this to a friendReally?
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed...nope. Wanted a tower fan. Not impressed with the air output so far.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt's ok
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No big deal! Nothing to really brag about! Just a fan.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot Bad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product works well, although the air output isn't the best I have ever had. It also makes a whistling sound which often wakes me up at night. My husband likes this though, and it isn't bad overall just isn't the best fan I've ever had. We do like that it has a remote, and has many settings. As I mentioned though the high setting doesn't seem all that "high" to me.
I would recommend this to a friendVery Noisy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is the loudest fan I have ever owned especially in oscillation mode. And I am just realizing Best Buys return policy is only 15 days

Not Worth It
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a good fan at all save your money, you will be disappointed!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendfan was a little to short for the bedroom
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The fan seemed okay but where I wanted to put it in our bedroom it was a little short our beds a little tall
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOk but not that great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Air flow on high speed also is not great as it is for fans with blades. On quite mode u barely feel air pressure.
