    Mediocre Buy Ships Open Box Product As New

    |

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

    I purchased the product new, but received an open box product at the new price. It specifically says in the Overview that the product includes 2 x AAA batteries for the remote on the product page, but upon taking the remote out I noticed the "open box" tape they use to specify that batteries are not included. If I pay full price for a new product, I expect all parts of that new product at a minimum. Other than this review, my only recourse is to return the whole product for being sent the wrong product (in the sense that it is technically open box and not new), thereby wasting the gas of the shipping vehicle in a time when we need the cooling capabilities and gas prices are at an all time high; sitting on the phone with their incompetent phone support for who knows how long; or, not doing anything about it and just sitting with the fact that I cannot expect Best Buy to actually be Best Buy, but only Mediocre Buy.

    4.5 Stars. Works great! The Sleep speed is so quiet you can barely hear it. Many desirable features - oscillates, 8 speeds gives so many options depending on where it is placed and how much cooling you desire. Very easy to put together - I did it alone in about 5 minutes. The housing could be sturdier. Very happy with this purchase!

    Don’t be fooled by by the gimmicks of advertising of this fan! I been using this fan on 78* weather & actually Walmarts fans are stronger. This fan makes slightly sound but not an issue. The only one issue is that one it’s power nor cold. Yes you do need an AC to make cold air though, they’re advertising of power cool, white noise & etc all sales gimmicks that made me buy it and 4 days in regret it. I mean don’t believe me Try it yourself for 14 days be sure to save your receipt, you’ll see. I will surely be returning this product & be searching for another.

      We're sorry to hear this fan did not meet your expectations. Please note, this fan will not lower the air temperature, but has a cooling effect known as the wind chill effect. Moving air feels cooler than air that is not moving. If you would like some help finding the right fan for you, please contact us at [email protected]. HoneywellSupportTechnician

    Assembly was not as easy as it led on, does not rotate for some reason but I didn’t need it to so I did not return it. However as soon as 30 days were up it started making this unbearable loud clicking noise and now I’m stuck with something that does not work.

    Purchased this June 17, 2020 and it stopped working around July 6th. My mother was placed to work from home because of covid so I purchased this as her room tends to get hot. It worked semi-well but after 3 weeks no longer turned on. We tried every outlet and still the same results. Best Buy won’t return the item or trade it in. Would not buy, zero stars!

    Works great. Keeps my small room cool and is quiet. Looks good and is narrow so it fits well anywhere in the room. Would like to have a little taller.

    Loved this fan do much, I bought two! Very quiet, powerful, and cool! The only issue for me is the height, it's pretty tall and doesn't really impact anything below 10" or 12". So, if it's really hot, I have to use a second fan for the floor where my dog often lays. Despite that, its wonderful in front of the couch and my bed. Since getting this fan, I haven't needed to use an air conditioner! Highly recommend!

    Quiet & Effective, Minor Hassles with Cleaning

    This fan does a great job at cooling and runs quietly, making it perfect for bedrooms or offices. The airflow is strong and consistent. My only complaints are that cord storage is awkward and cleaning the dust buildup can be a hassle due to the grille design. Otherwise, very solid fan for the price.

    My husband and I love this fan. It keeps us cool during the night in our bedroom without having to lower the AC temp. It's powerful enough for a midsize bedroom, but it's not too loud.
