Not worth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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.

Not 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.

Ok 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.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have only been using this fan for 3-4 months and just today it started making a constant loud noise while it’s on, no matter what speed. From the beginning I was not super impressed with this tower fan. Even though there are 5 different speeds, the highest speed does not produce enough air flow. I have two other cheaper tower fans in my home for years now that are different brands and are much better! I’m very disappointed in this fan considering the amount of positive reviews and higher cost on this item compared to how it actually performed.

Trash
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Read some reviews before buying, and was disappointed. Doesn’t do any justice. It is quiet but, I used it for my kids room and it doesn’t feel any cooler with it on and on full blast oscillating. Keep your money and spend a lil more for something better.

Posted .We're sorry to hear you feel this way. Please note, this unit is a fan; it is not an air conditioner. This unit will not push cooler air into the room to lower the temperature; it will circulate the air that is already in your room. If you require assistance, please reach out to us directly. Our email and phone number can be found in your Owner’s Manual or on our website.

Not quiet at all
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
