Ok! But while not buy the same brand
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its better than a fan, but i dont like the green light that stays while working, remote not easy to use!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendVery WEAK fan
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this fan for a bedroom in an RV. The room is very small and only has a queen bed with a foot or so of moving room around the bed. This fan is not even powerful enough to keep this small room cool even on the higgest settings. Im surprised by the previius reviews. Im a person that tends to be cold a lot and dont need much from a fan but this fan is very weak. If you are 12 feet away and its on its highest setting you can barely tell its even on.

Meh
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Eh. Isn't super cold and doesn't blow hard. For the price decent
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat Fan but remote is not good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the fan itself, but the remote that comes with it doesn't work. Other than the remote an excellent fan and would recommend to anyone.
I would recommend this to a friendGets the job done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not the best, better alternatives that work much better. Does the job however.
I would recommend this to a friendLoud 'n Creaky
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a fan entitled "Quietset" it is dang loud (faint buzzing from fan) and makes creaky sounds when oscillating. At a few of the speeds, it also vibrates on wooden floors. I have an older model of this fan than is WAYYY more quiet and since I needed a couple more fans for my kids rooms, I thought I'd give this one a try. Bought two and both are loud, so I know it's not just a manufacturing defect on one fan.

- Pros mentioned:Noise level
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 friend It 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 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 friend- Pros mentioned:Cooling
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 friend Bought 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.

Horrible
||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.
