Normal fan
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The highest setting isn’t the best and the first two settings are practically the same. Works well but nothing special.

Not the best advertising
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A/C went down this summer and needed a quick and easy way to cool down whichever room we were in temporarily while we waited for a repairman to come. Due to the advertisement of "cooling options" and "temperature settings", we purchased two fans. Figured out pretty fast in a 90 degree household that it really didn't have any kind of cooling options or temperature settings. It just blew hot air everywhere and we were absolutely miserable. Needless to say, very misleading advertisement. I'm sure they would be great if the room was already cold.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from ManufacturerTechSupport
Posted .We appreciate you sharing your feedback. 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. We have made note of you comments and passed it along. If you have any questions, please contact us by emailing SocialSupport@kaz.com. Thank you.
Average room fan
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Blows decent but not great, doesn’t swivel far, lightweight , isn’t cold at all
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from ManufacturerTechSupport
Posted .Thank you for your feedback. Please note, this fan will circulate the air that is already in your room which will help you feel cooler, but it will not generate cooler air to lower the room's temperature.

Oscillating fan
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quiet but far too small, not powerful enough to boost air in an average size bedroom.

Not great...doesn’t cool
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fan is OK. There are much better options. It doesn’t really make a difference in terms of cooling a room. I would’ve returned but I got rid of the box.

Faulty unit... great Best Buy experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Best Buy experience was great. Unfortunately I got a faulty product. When you turn on the fan, there are strong smells of plastic. I thought that this was just because it was new but things never got better. It is under warranty. I signed up on the Honeywell website and they are sending me a replacement. Unfortunately Fed Ex has delayed the delivery by a week already. Maybe I can give the new fan a better rating.

It rattles more than it moves air.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's only ok at moving, but my god is it noisey. Not like a fan noise either, you can hear all of the plastic in this thing rattling while it's one, like all of the screws need to be tightened. If I push in on the sides to push the plastic pieces together it sounds like a normal fan.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from ManufacturerTechSupport
Posted .We would not expect this fan to make a rattling noise like you have described. We would like to make this right. Please reach out to us by emailing SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com, and we'd be happy to help.
Go Bladeless or Buy A Box Fan
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didnt even last 24hrs before it started to behave abnormally... when I went to sleep I had the unit set to "Calm", and at 3 in the morning it awoke me making a very loud distressing fan noise. I recommend you save your self some money and buy an old reliable box fan. Words fail to describe how disappointed I am with this product...
