It has 8 settings, rotates and the best part.. it has a remote you can conveniently use and put away in the back. The set up was super easy! Must have in every home

    Best Fan Ever
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I Love this Fan! It is Super Quiet and Cools My Big Bedroom down. I have turned My Air Conditioner Up and use this Fan at Night and it feels so Comfortable . You can Barely hear it running, I like that because I am not a Fan of Noise while trying to Sleep. It is tall and Stylish and doesn't take up much Room like a Box Fan. It has alot of different settings in it, although I do not use them because it runs all the Time since I have had it! Great Fan and Definitely Recommended!

      Sleeping buddy
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very amazed the way the fan is extremely quiet. My children have been using it while they sleep and they can’t even hear it when it’s on. The fan has 7 different functions. It’s super light weight and easy to set up. I enjoyed the fact that it has an area for the remote to be able to be placed and not get lost. It also has a set time that you can have it at with one hour 2 hour and so on. I’m really enjoying it.

        Fresh Air
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The perfect fan to help cool any room. We use it in our living room and in the evenings, we put it in the bedroom to help circulate the air making it cooler. It also has several different settings for your needs. It’s easy to set up and saves space due to the tower style fan. It’s definitely a must if your in the market for a fan.

          High performing fan
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honeywell brand in category of tower fans, is the best in line product which is impressive in its functionality. Decent look with a modern pattern looking stand , long standing tower fan covers wide range in a room , mostly covering whole room with air. There are 8 cooling settings that we can use, less noise compared to other fans, And this fan came with remote, which slides on back of the fan for storing it. And handle to carry this tower fan to any place you wish to in you house. Easy to assemble with no hassles.

              Love this!
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not only is this sleek and compact compared to other oscillating fans and the old fashioned box fan, this pushes out cool air and doesn't just move the air around the room. The remote is convenient and easy to use to change the fan settings and even though this is closer to his side of the bed, I can drop feel it across to my side point cool air my way, we already bought another one for the living room top.

                Great little tower fan!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review is for the Honeywell QuietSet Oscillating Whole Room Tower Fan which I received about 2 weeks ago. I was waiting for a little bit warmer weather to write this review to be really able to tell how well the tower fan works. It is very easy to put this fan together, it takes just 5 minutes and it is ready to go. I really like that the fan has 8 different speed control options. My favorite one is the white noise option which I use for the night but even the other speed options are not very loud and can easily be ignored. My husband is very sensitive to lights in the bedroom and this fan is perfect due to the nighttime light dimming feature. The output on level 8 is very strong for such a small little tower and if put on oscillation it cools down a room quickly. It also comes with a little remote control that requires 2 “AAA” batteries. The design is sleek and simple and you don’t even notice the tower fan sitting in his corner. We really like this Honeywell QuietSet Oscillating Whole Room Tower Fan and I am sure we will appreciate it even more during summer heat waves.

                  2 in 1 White Noise + Cool Air
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tower fan was very easy to set up. Just assemble the base, unscrew the bottom of the fan, thread the fan through the base and secure the screw back on. I liked that the power cord can be clipped to the inside of the base to partially hide the cord. This fan includes a remote that needs AAA batteries (not included) and has a nook on the back of the fan so you don’t lose it. My husband and I sleep with a white noise machine at night, so I loved that this fan has a white noise function and cools our room at the same time. Our master room is always the hottest room in the house, so instead of lowering the AC we can use this fan. The light that indicates the power level of the fan, can also be dimmed or turned off which is considerate of sleepers who need a dark room. In terms of noise, the fan does get louder with higher the power but you can always use the lowest setting for minimal noise. Overall, I would recommend.

                    Ajustable speed.
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this beautiful Honeywell Quiet Set Oscillating Whole Room Tower Fan from try it sampling. I love how it doesn’t take that much place and it fits anywhere in my room. It very quiet and, has adjustable speed. It can be set in time control and it rotates. Best fan I’ve had.

                      Great fan.
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan came already assembled except for the 2 piece base which you have to align and snap together, then screw onto the bottom of the fan. The fan has 8 cooling levels and is really silent on the calm, whisper and sleep levels. On the other 5 levels there is sound but still it is a quiet sound and the further away you are the less you hear. I like that it took less than 5 mins to assemble, has a timer that you can set, oscillates and has a remote control to save time having to manually change the settings. Please note the remote control needs 2 AAA batteries which are not included.

                        Quiet and powerful
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan is the quietest tower fan I have ever owned. It has different modes although my favorites are power cool and white noise. Is very light and small but yet very powerful. The design is very modern and slick.

                          Quiet and cool!
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a traditional fan for so long. I’m so glad to finally upgrade to this tower. It’s sleek and quiet. It’s something to get use to ,especially, when I typically sleep Because of the noise the fan makes. It has different settings to help personalize your sleeping experience. I’ve tried the “white noise” setting but it wasn’t as great as the “power cool” setting. Leaving the room cooler and the sound I’m use to! I love that it comes with a remote. The remote also attaches to the back of the fan for easy storage.

                            Best fan I have ever owned!
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an excellent fan! We use a fan all year long and this one is by far our favorite! It is powerful and definitely cools the whole room (We have ours in our bedroom) but is very quiet at the same time, which is great at night while we are trying to sleep. The settings are easy to understand and I also loves that it does oscillate. It also has a little remote (also easy to use and understand) and when not in use it has a place to store the remote behind the fan which I found very clever! Definitely recommended!

I love having a fan on at night and this surpassed all expectations!! It’s quiet but powerful! The height is perfect for the air too reach you! I love it comes with a remote so you don’t have to adjust!! This should be a must have for anyone !! A great product overall and definitely a 10/10

                                Nice Fan with Remote
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use a fan in the bedroom all year and this is a great. It has 8 different settings so you can get the perfect air flow for your needs. It has a timer and the lights on the top can be dimmed if they start to bother you. It can also be set to oscillate or stay still which is really nice. My favorite part though is that there is a remote to control this fan so you don't have to get up everytime you want to change the setting or turn it off. There is even a spot on the back of the fan that holds the remote when you aren't using. I love it!

                                  Honeywell whole room tower fan is awesome
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really luv this fan, especially being in Mississippi. The weather hear is so humid, no matter what time of year. It so quiet, and works better than fans. I luv it. Never even know its on. It has so many settings, plus timers also. Can just use my remote to turn it on or off, or change settings. Really great quality. Easy to put together too. Everyone needs one of these. Check out all the settings. Even has white noise. I hate sound when I sleep, so perfect for me. Worth every penny. Will cool a whole room, plus I don't use my AC as much. That says alot coming from Mississippi.

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've been using our Honeywell QuietSet Oscillating Whole Room Tower Fan for a couple of weeks and it's perfect. It is very quiet compared to our last one. It has many settings to meet all your needs. It is very strong. I can put it on low and you can feel the breeze anywhere in the room. I love that it has a sleep setting and I also love the remote for those moments when I'm just too tired to get up. Too perfect, love it!

                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this fan because it is so quiet! I like that it has different speeds and a timer. I’m surprised by how much air it pushes around. It was bigger than I expected but it is tall and slim so it fits perfectly in our room.

                                        Really great fan with lots of settings
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan was super easy to assemble. It came with printed directions, but it also had instructions attached to the cord in case the printed instructions were damaged or missing (I assume). There were lots of settings for fan speeds, and my favorite feature of all was that you can turn the lights off. I am really sensitive to lights, and I really hate having blue lights on appliances especially at night, they're so bright and distracting. The one issue I have is that the buttons aren't lighted, they just have a print on them so you can't see them well at night or in low light. I do really like that you can tuck the cord into the base so it's not all over the floor. The fan itself is really powerful but also really quiet.

                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so obsessed with this fan! It has 8 different “quiet” modes and fan speed modes. Not only does it rotate for full room breeze but there is a remote you can control it with from the comfort of your couch or bed! Insane! I will never use a different fan again, absolutely love it and recommend. Perfect for keeping the room temp cool on a summer night without all the noise to wake the baby, or the hubby!

                                            Great options
                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan was simple and easy to put together you just had to snap the base together and then put the tower on the base and then lock it in and you are good to go. The height is a good size and the slim size really sells me, this will be something I keep in the living room I can slide it into a corner with no problems when not in use but can also just as easily pull it out to use it. It has a remote that fits right into the back so when you're not using it you don't lose it. This fan has 8 options on it which is great and on top of the speeds you can have it occolate or be still, you can dim the lights or have none at all, you can put it on a timer or just use it like a regular fan. Nothing to fancy but I love the simplicity of it. It definitely gets the job done and I think it'll look nice with any decor.

It really does such a great job with windows open and cools down my entire home without ever having to touch my AC. And it comes with a remote for when I'm feeling really lazy and don't want to get up to change the settings.

                                                Powerful stream of smooth cool air
                                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I typically use a box fan, but my room has been rather hot since the landlord always keep my room hot during winter times, so I decided to replace it with an oscillating fan for improved circulation. There are eight alternative options, for users to  experience strong - natural or sleep speed adjustments of airflow with a single tap to meet our chosen cooling demands. The user-friendly top-mounted control panel with vivid LED light indications has several speed settings, fan modes, toggles oscillation on/off, and a simple programmed automated timer that allows you to sleep well and saves energy. It's nice and robust, and it's extremely simple to put together, thus ( I put them together myself in under 5 minutes)

                                                  Fan with so many different options!
                                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who NEEDS a loud fan to fall asleep at night, I have always had difficulty buying a fan that isn't super soft sounding and will fit my sleeping needs. I have bought many fans to test out, and always end up returning them because they don't provide the sound I am looking for. This fan however has so many different options, it is perfect for my needs! It was super easy to put together, and I will admit when I first took it out of the box and started putting it together I was skeptical because the base seemed really flimsy, but once it was all put together it is actually really sturdy! There are so many different settings and the remote that comes with it so you can adjust it from across the room is a great feature for any room. What an awesome fan!

Super easy to set up and i love that it oscillates! Great for a bonus room, or to sit on a stair landing in between spaces that doesnt have a direct line for air.

                                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am excited to try this fan out. I really like the different speeds this fan has. It is very quiet which is great for me because I am a very light sleeper. I like the remote so I can change the speed when I am relaxing in my bed. I can change the speed faster or slower depending on how hot I am. I like that this fan doesn't take up a lot of room since our apartment isn't very big. I like that it won't take up a lot of room when I put it away in the winter months. I like how easy it was for my teen son and I to put together. I like this product so much that I plan to buy 3 more of them because we need some new fans for our apartment. I recommend this product.

                                                        Not great for this original price point here
                                                        I've had this fan for a little over a year and the it works well. The fan works great. I've had a few issues though. The bottom 2 fan setting lights have quit working and the fan motor has started to make an irritating scraping type of sound on the lower settings. I usually use this about 8 hours a day on the 3rd setting for use reference. I did get this on sale for around $40 and it's completely worth it at that price point. At the original price its a 2/5 star device from my experience.

This cools a large room because it's powerful. This has various speed mode and features quite mode which I love because basically there is no noise but your room is still getting cooled. Overall it's a great product and I highly recommend.
