    Not quiet at all

    In very short order after I bought this fan it started making an annoying squeaking noise when it oscillates. Even when not oscillating it will make squeaking noises, sometimes on the lowest settings. Not worth the money, would not recommend.

    Too Quiet! Not Enough Air!

    I recently purchased this fan because it appeared to be large enough to circulate the air in my living room. Wrong. My living room space isn't large, so for this fan not to be able to circulate the air in it was disappointing. Plus, it was kind of eerie that I couldn't really hear the fan. As weird as that sounds. I returned it immediately.

    As quiet as expected when first purchased but by early-Oct started this singing/whistling sound that was present on every setting and not resolved by moving it. Called customer service and a new one is on the way - no argument. Hopefully the next one will perform as expected.

    Quiet Is A Lie

    When the word “quiet” is in your product name, you should be able to deliver on that. On the lowest setting, oscillating or not, this thing is a noisy mess. I took a video to show what I am talking about but can’t post it.

    This fan is not good for what it’s worth. If you need one to cool you off a small room it’s not it. I left out of town, and I couldn’t return it.

      Thank you for your feedback. This fan is designed to provide gentle, quiet airflow ideal for personal use rather than strong cooling for larger spaces.

    The fan turns on and off on its own. I always have it set without a timer, so there is no reason for it to turn off. Also, the fan changes settings on its own as well. Not as I expected and am very disappointed because I bought two of them and both have the same problems.
