Price is a bargain, too. Easy to assemble and very quiet, at the ‘Relax’ setting (there are 3 speeds higher than that). Fan creates a breeze that goes 16 feet plus in non-oscillation mode (i.e. a fixed position). Metered the sound levels for you ... my room with fan off is 34 decibels and with fan on highest ‘Power Cool’ level measured at 10 feet away the noise was 48 decibels. Super quiet fan. This fan only adds 5 decibels of sound at my favorite setting which is the ‘Relax’ setting.
Slightly higher noise level in oscillating mode. Easily works in all indoor applications from bedroom to family room. Built in timer for 2, 4, 6 or 8 hours and the control are simple to use. Remote works well with three buttons ... On/Off, Speed and Oscillate. Remote is Infrared so it needs to "see" the fan's control panel to be used. Overall, very nice fan. I would recommend it.

This fan is easy to set up and very easy to use. With eight speed settings (sleep, whisper, calm, white noise, relax, refresh, cool, and power cool) there is plenty of fan speed adjustability and the oscillating feature has a wide enough arc to hit the entire room when placed in a corner. The remote is convenient, and I wouldn't buy a room fan without one (nice to be able to adjust from the couch or bed). The remote is a simple three button setup - power, fan speed, and oscillating on/off. Two AAA batteries are required for the remote, but are not included. The "light" mentioned on the box is just an indicator for fan speed level on the top of the fan unit, and is not a room light or spotlight, just fyi. They're mostly plastic so they don't look or feel premium, but the price is right and in black, they're decent looking. I have two of these tower fans and so far so good.

Nice fan. Has a 'Power Cool' setting that cools well, rotates and is quiet. Use it for the laundry room. For years of using fans, this is the best one I have found.

Disregarding the reviews about lemon products and overly high expectations of this product, I decided to get one for me and my father. Where I live, it gets hot, especially this summer. This fan did and still does a great job at cooling a midsize room. Even for a large open room it gets the air moving. It doesn’t have cooling but has a cooling list of fan speeds. It gets me cool and keeps me cold at night. The oscillation is a wide range, more than I thought, and does a superb job at keep the air flow going. Easy assembly, light weight base, and sturdy item build. Definitely worth the buy for a small to medium room, office or dorm. If you’re looking for heavy air flow, the high setting is perfect. Plus the noise level on high is barely noticeable. Also, the little remote it comes with totally cool.

My AC was broken from 3 June to 3 July. I am mostly homebound due to chronic illnesses which are made much worse by summer's heat. The AC could be babied for a halfhour a couple times a day. Having this fan with its multi positions and its oscilating features made my bedroom tolerable. It has a great nighttime sleep feature and the backlighting can be dimmed several ways. It is indeed very quiet. Its tall thin profile allows it to be placed anywhere in any room, even in the doorway from the first to second floors to bring down air. I would indeed recommend this fan.

Works really well. Quiet. Lightweight. Wide range of speeds. From light breeze on up and it oscillates. Easy to put together. Love the remote! They had one in stock so I could pick it up and use it that night.

I love love LOVE this fan!! Got it to replace a noisy oscillating fan in our large open plan dining/family room, I'm just sad I didn't do it sooner. This thing moves a surprising amount of air and is legitimately whisper quiet so it doesn't interfere with hearing the TV...I'd all but given up on having both of those things at once. The remote is a nice little bonus I didn't realize I'd appreciate as much as I do.

I bought five of these fans from Best Buy. They are very quiet. I love the remote that allows you to turn the fan on and off, select speed and oscillation on and off. I had trouble with two. One was very loud from the get go and Best Buy exchanged it. Another developed an electronics problem with the display and speed selection. I called Honeywell support thinking I needed to do some kind of reset and they shipped me off a new one. Also, these fans are very attractive, easy to assemble (and I've had lots of practice) and take up little space.

Has good cooling effect. Lights illuminate and a remote is given with the unit. Would be nice to have a temperature gage on it. Slim and ergonomic so it fits in nicely in any room. Works better in combination with other fans, particularly a window fan so there is a cross breeze present. Also with poor air quality does not sufficiently clear the air so an air purifier is helpful to use at the same time. Overall, very good fan, reasonable price but works best complimenting other fans/devices as opposed to use as one overall unit.

8 settings might seem like, oh, maybe 5 too many, but it’s helpful to have more settings than “high”, “low”, and “off”. The remote is nice; you don’t even have to get up to change settings. The low speeds are useful for keeping bugs away in the evening without having to endure getting blown on. Oscillation ensures it covers a wider range. This fan is tall! Only a few bucks more than similar tower fans available at other retailers and those fans have fewer settings (speeds). Considering buying another one so we can have our “own” fans when relaxing outdoors.

I got this one and tried a couple of days. It really cools down the room and it wont occupy much space and setup is super easy. But coming to the cons, you wont feel much breeze if it is little far from your bed even at high speed setting. Also, the height is a problem for me since my bed little high wont worked out for me. This one is for who wants less airflow with lower bed height with good cooling options and some good white noise.

There is a lot to like about this tower fan: There are a bunch of different air output settings, a lot more than the usual 3 you see on other models. It has a wide range when swiveling. The illuminated indicators on the controls can be dimmed or turned off. The noise level is quiet on the lower settings, but if you want white noise, the higher airflow settings are noisy enough. The fan comes with a remote that can be used to adjust the air settings and turn the fan on or off. This fan is also lightweight, which is nice if you need to move it around frequently.
A few cons I have noticed: the size of the air stream coming out of the fan is a little small, it is not a wide coverage area when the fan is stationary. Any time you adjust the air settings, the blue light on the controls goes back to full brightness, regardless of it was off or dimmed. This includes when you use the remote, so if you are lying in the bed at night and adjust the airflow, the bright blue light is going to come back on, and there unfortunately is not a button on the remote to adjust the control light brightness.
Overall, I like this fan! It was easy to assemble and is a good value.

This fam is everything. Perfect height. Very quite but still that good fan noise to sleep! Fan rotates and has several fan speeds. A remote is attached for convenience. Bought my mom one as well
