Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Tower Fan-Black, Oscillating Tower Fan with Remote, HYF290B

To begin with, no fan is a substitute of an AC system, those that use one need to understand thermodynamics, AC units remove the heat from the room and have super-cooling methods that wouldn't be used in a fan. To get air OUT of a room, you need an exit, an open door, window, etc. I use mine in support of our AC unit, which is all the way in the living room (and struggles to reach my room). Fans are mainly intended to keep the air circulating, but by doing so also slightly (but noticeably in enclosed environments, far more than in open) increase the temperature as a byproduct. However, fans do make it more bearable, and make a significant difference when centered onto the person in question. It's a rather quiet, and tall fan, as opposed to the arguably much stronger, less efficient, and louder box fan that I used to have. This fan does rotate, has multiple settings including ones (that at the lower levels) are little more than white noise, meaning it can be used to give a slight cooling sensation, without being overwhelming, while also staying just loud enough to drown out the disturbances of the night, an owl hooting at an odd hour, birds flying around, etc. Is it perfect, no, in my case my bed happens to be too tall (which I had just set up a day prior to receiving the fan) to make the full use of the fan at night, however the white noise helps with sleeping, and it still does keep a good deal of the heat off at night. I would recommend it to someone who understood what they were looking for in a fan, and what they would be getting. If you are looking for a fan, not an AC unit, this is something that I would recommend.

This fan has lasted for ~5+ years (since Oct. 2020) running nearly non-stop at varying speeds and has been through several moves. No weird noises, no bad bearings. Just dust it outside every so often using a high powered duster, avoiding making the blades spin too fast while doing so. Then you're good to go. Cooling effect is nice and the variable speeds help with the right amount of noise/cooling ratio. It's pretty quiet on most of the lower speeds.

I own a couple of these! If you're looking for a quiet and effective tower fan, I highly recommend these. Keeps me cool.

It spins a cylindrical tower style rotary fan blade. A lot of different speed settings but I've ran this on high with the oscillate feature on for the past, 3-4 years. I planned on performing a full disassembly and cleaning but after my air purifier taking a lot longer than intended I wasn't in the mood. So I pointed my window A/C unit, a window fan and laid out a towel, I went to work with a vacuum with a brush attachment, then a light mist of 99% alcohol, then a light mist of 2 parts Dawn dish soap: 3 parts very very hot distilled water in a pressurized sprayer, followed by a rinse of cool pure distilled water while it was running and on oscillate. Turned it upside down and shook it out. smacked it a few times then a few more sprays of alcohol and scrubbing the vents with an old toothbrush, I could have used some automotive grease or silicone lubricant on the moving parts, but this thing will probably outlive most of my appliances already LOL... Then I let the fans blow on it for about 10 minutes and unplugged it and now i use it for my basement. Blows too hard now, lol. Hell of a fan. Compared to those big blade stand up fans, window fans, or a box fan, this thing is 1000x better, let me tell ya. I usually have the window fan blowing in, horizontally at the top of my window and this thing blowing toward the window. Seems weird but it works... get this, super quiet, efficient, powerful, fairly tall but doesn't take up much space, very durable (tipped over about 50 dozen times, could probably weigh it down with a thick piece of steel or a steel ring the same size as the one attached, ooh i am going to search that up or make one right now), remote (? I think i lost mine if it has one), overall a super amazing fan.

My husband loves to sleep with the fan on, but I don’t - uh oh! We got this fan as a compromise & I’m very happy with it. It’s effective for airflow but has a quiet setting- which I love & can sleep in peace! The look is sleek and high end. The size fits easily in small spaces with big power. We also love how the light on the fan can be turned off and that it comes with a remote!

So I just received the fan and literally just plugged it in and this thing is quiet as can possibly be. This unit is outstanding. I needed it right next to my office desk where I do vidieo recordings and was concerned that any fan I bought would be too loud and picked up on the recordings but this is awesome. This fan is amazingly quiet on the lower settings and more than acceptible on higher settings.

Der Honeywell Turmventilator verfügte weder über einen deutschen Netzstecker, noch war ein CE-Kennzeichen zu finden. Erstaunlich, dass so etwas in der EU überhaupt verkauft wird.

Looks very stylish in a room, cools well and is super quiet compared to a normal fan. Can easily watch tv at normal volume and it doesn't distract from the tv.

This was my 1st purchase of the newer style fan (older style being the caged, rotating 3-plastic-blades with base controls). I wasn't disappointed, & subsequently bought a 2nd one. The fan does its job very well & because of the height, provides a wider area of coverage than the older style. It also lives up very well to its claim for being quiet. The Sleep mode is extremely quiet, but at a price -- the airflow is so minimal that it doesn't help much unless it's almost right in your face. The remote is a nice addition & works well. My only real beef is with the base. It's awkward & clunky & there's just a TINY space at the very bottom to run the cord through. Whenever I move the unit, the base just doesn't feel stable (it's never come off though), & the cord seems to hate being confined to that tiny hole. That aside, though, generally I'm very happy with this fan & have no regrets for "changing over" to this style. Very good product which I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
