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.

Quiet fan but gives enough white noise to help coverup any outside sounds. Sleek so it doesnt take up a lot of space

4.5 Stars. Works great! The Sleep speed is so quiet you can barely hear it. Many desirable features - oscillates, 8 speeds gives so many options depending on where it is placed and how much cooling you desire. Very easy to put together - I did it alone in about 5 minutes. The housing could be sturdier. Very happy with this purchase!

Best slim, quiet and effective fan. We picked this up at the same time we picked up a portable AC unit during a major heat wave in Portland (105 to 116 degrees). The super slim design makes it a great space saver in smaller rooms. It has multiple settings that range from inaudible to a low hum, perfect for white noise and sleeping at night. It is a great buy, easy to use, and ready to go right out of the box. I highly recommend this fan and will be buying additional ones for our bedrooms. It works exceptionally well to keep indoor air circulated and creates a nice cooling breeze for comfort. We have been running it 24 hours a day since purchase.

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.

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.

This tower with multiple fan speeds is very quiet in the slow setting, and moves air well in a medium-sized bedroom. Set up is only a matter of putting the unit on its stand. Price is competitive with all other in its class, plus BB protection.

This fan does a great job at cooling and runs quietly, making it perfect for bedrooms or offices. The airflow is strong and consistent. My only complaints are that cord storage is awkward and cleaning the dust buildup can be a hassle due to the grille design. Otherwise, very solid fan for the price.

Easy to assemble out of the carton, operation is simple and straightforward. Fan pushes a good amount of air to get the room circulated well and is pretty quite operationally. Works great in our large bedroom, especially with the convenient remote. Good purchase and overall value.

Great product. The Honeywell - QuietSet Oscillating Whole Room Tower Fan HYF290B has lots of features including oscillation, remote control, takes minimal floor space, and cools effectively. Looking to purchase a 2nd one for guest bedroom.

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.

My sister loves this! Small, quiet but works well!

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.

Overall good fan. Bit noisy on top setting. Other setting are quiet, efficient, and cool off the space. Compact space makes it easy to fit in spaces.

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.
