Quiet? No!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t be swayed by the marketing aspects of this fan. The color bar and eight Quiet Settings are deceptive, they really refer to fan speed or power vs. providing any differentiating feature ex. “Calm”, “Whitenoise”, “Refresh” etc.;there is nothing related to those terms. The fan is effectively provides cool air - so no regrets on meeting the purpose of buying it. The fan however is NOT quiet. It has a persistent rattle and when on oscillation creaks/whines so definitely is lacking in meeting a key promoted feature. Whether sleeping or using in an office etc. that’s not an outcome I want at any price. Traditional upright oscillating fans are superior to this model.

My favorite fan!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fan is better than I could have imagined. Different cooling settings, oscillating, and a remote. It’s so quiet that I hardly hear is while sleeping.

Favorite fan ever!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this fan, great gentle breezes cool effectively with five possible settings. The fan gives me a lovely cool sleep on hot nights (with a window fan also). Lightweight and portable, attractive design, space saver. Quality product, I recommend and will likely buy more for several other rooms.

The quiet part is the only flaw
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to love this. It has everything going for it. Nice design, good controls(on the fan), 8 speed settings. It’s really only the quiet part where it falls short. You get an irritating buzzing sound from the motor that intensifies as you go up the fan speed ladder and is even more annoying on the lowest setting because you can now clearly hear it. To make things worse is when the thing oscillates it stutters and creaks occasionally creating an audible plastic click sound like it’s hung up something. This did eventually go away though. Overall it’s a decent fan that will cool you down but for something that is supposed to be quiet it doesn’t live up to the hype.

A great device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the dim setting for the blue light. It’s quite. Delayed setting always turns off. Blows perfectly. Also it’s like a champ I did have a time with the base. Took ten minutes to long up and tightened. Does knock over even by my small dog not the large cat and a busy morning rushing out the door Great product

Great for kids room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this fan to place in my children’s room so they could have a cool room at night. This fan is great. It’s pretty quiet and you there are different fan speed which is great. So if they want to use it in the day at a higher speed, they can change it to a different speed as well

Great fan, if not using it on a regular basis
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It starts out work a lot of power for how quiet it is. I love that it has 8 different power settings and can oscillate. However within 10 days the first one I bought had the lower fans for the lowest settings stop working. I exchanged it for another one, and again within 17 days half the little fans are not working as well. It started making noise when on lower settings, and when it oscillates. If it didn't stop working properly within a couple weeks it would be a 5 star review.

COOL AND QUIET.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THIS IS GREAT COOLING FAN. WITHOUT A LOT OF EXTRA NOISE. I USE IN KITCHEN TO HELP MOVE AIR IN SUMMER. THE FAN HAS 8 LEVELS AND TOP 2 ADD EXTRA COOLING POWER WITHOUT ADDED NOISE LEVEL. MY KITCHEN HAS A HARDWOOD FLOOR SO NOISE IS AT LOUNDER LEVEL THAN OTHER ROOMS. THE ADDED COOLING LEVELS IMMEDIATLY COOL DOWN THE ROOM EVEN WHILE COOKING.

Great budget fan
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fan does everything you need it to: Change intensity, oscillate, has remote, lights turn off after so long. I'm not sure why they call it QuietSet though because it's not that quiet, but then again, it's a fan so there has to be noise. Either way, I recommend.

Good fan
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fan is fairly quiet but it is a fan so it does make a noise. I like the oscillation and the fan speed. Glad to have it to move air around in a few areas where I don't have ceiling fans.

Does the Job
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this to help improve air circulation and cooling in our den, and it does the job. The remote is handy. That being said, compared to tower units we have seen in other homes, this one is super clunky.
