Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Tower Fan-Black, HYF290B

I bought this fan because it has 8 speeds. The 2 lowest settings on this fan are even lower than the low setting on other fans of this size. Think of them as extra low settings. The lowest setting is like a very slight gentle breeze and I mean very slight. The 2nd setting is just ever so slightly more powerful than the first. I love it. As it goes up by about the 5th setting youre at medium. Its so much better than just low, medium, & high on other fans. It solved a problem I was having because Im super picky about temperature and air flow. I live in So Cal so during winter I like to sleep with the window open to make my room cold to where I can sleep comfortably with a blanket. The problem I have in spring and fall is that Im too warm even with the window open so I put a fan by the window to blow the cool outside air on me. The problem is some nights its too cold with the fan even on low. At times Im too warm or to cold I just cant get right. But now having these extra low settings on this new fan is perfect. I have a couple problems with it. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could but it gets 5 because of the extra low settings that I love. Reasons for 4.5 stars is the price. This fan is kind of light in weight and seems a little cheaply made. Dont get me wrong its not that cheaply made, I just expected a little more for the price. I would say this fan should be more like $45- $50 instead of $67 which is what I paid. Not a huge difference but still. Maybe its the different settings and the control panel that lights up thats driving the price up a little. I also wished the high setting was a little more powerful. This fan is definitely for a small to medium room. Otherwise keep it somewhat close to you. If you have a large room and the fan is at the furthest possible point away from you this fan wont be powerful enough.

Overall a great product. A large variety of speeds and runs relatively quiet at all of them; oscillates with a wide range and fits great in a corner to provide airflow to a medium sized room when you want to cool down but dont need to turn on the a/c. My only gripe is that the base feels cheap and flimsy. The fan itself will outlast its mount for sure.

purchased this tower fan on June 28th 2020, honey well being a trusted brand I felt confident. initially the fan worked great, quiet, powerful, very nice. by the 2nd or 3rd day it started to function oddly. would turn off by itself, oscillate on its own, speed settings would change without touch the controls. I believe the remote for my tv was the cause of the issue, perhaps a cross of frequencies. would work ok if I didnt point the tv remote towards the fan. I can live with that. by the 5th or 6th day the fan itself just stopped working. the control panel and remote were still live and you could see the settings being changed however the actual fan blades would not spin therefore the unit would produce no air flow. quite disappointed to say the least. In light of this inconvenience amazon took care of the issue quite well. sent me a replacement model the following business day at no charge pending the return of the defective model. I have sent back the original order and now have the replacement. so far it is working great and I hope to not have an problems 2nd time around. despite that first fan being defective I am willing to try another one and amazon has provided excellent customer service.

good not great

Very loud after 6 months. Started off fine and quiet but now is very loud and seems like it’s not oscillating correctly. Don’t recommend

Great fan , works very well

After less than a year of minimal usage the fan is no longer quiet. It rattles and makes a ticking sound, even on the lowest speed setting, and yes the base connection is tight. We really liked how quiet it was in the beginning, since this feature was why it was purchased. Cant recommend it if you are looking for a quiet fan.

I bought this for a large 4 seasons room that is all windows facing south and west. This (in addition to mini split AC) has kept the room quite comfortable and cool. Very quiet as well. Thank you

The fan is good but the base is terribly weak, made of cheap plastic

The product is ok, the RPM is low that makes air flow less effective, design and looks are great, little costly compare to other brands available
