Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Tower Fan-Black, HYF290B

Súper practico y o ocupa espacio

I was skeptical when I bought it because I didn’t think it would cool all as quickly as it does and it’s quiet unless you crank it up. Right now I. Sitting probably 10-12 feet away and I can feel the cool breeze. Just bought another one for the bedroom which is upstairs and as most two floor homes it’s always hotter on the second floor. Hope it works as well.

Bought this fan based on the amazon recommendation and reviews. I want to point out a few things to those buying this as well as the manufacturer: Yes, this is a fan that works and operates like most fans. It comes in black and white. The black version has more speeds than the white version (Why?). It has various speeds, a power button, the ability to shut off the LEDs, it oscilates, and it comes with a remote. Right out of the box you will notice the poor quality and lack of thought that went into this fan. It feels like plastic junk from China. The base of the fan is detached from the fan and it requires some assembly. The base is plastic and feels very flimsy; like you might break it snapping it and screwing it together. One might think that they did this to shorten the height of the box, but it still takes up the full vertical height of the fully assembled fan. It was a poorly executed out of box experience and the product manager and packaging team are to blame here. The remote, which resembles a garage door opener from the 1980s is a great example as to why Honeywell is not top of mind when it comes to products you want in your home. The remote is silver, and should be black to match the fan. It is flat out ugly and serves zero purpose from an ergonomic standpoint and is limited to 3 functions. Why not add the ability to shut off the lights or change the sleep timer? This is a missed opportunity. Also, my remote did not come with batteries. This part really got me fired up to write this review. The LEDs that are on board are low-powered and not that bright. To shut the LEDs off, it requires you to physically get up and walk over to the fan and press the light button FOUR times in order for the lights to be turned off. Im not sure if upper management got involved in the process here and insisted on this feature or if the research team heard that customers demanded four levels of brightness, but its a fact that most users humans are used to interacting with light in two states; on and off. Tip to Honeywell: Build your products with love, thought, and higher-quality materials. People will pay a higher price and want them in their homes forever.

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.

This remote has poor range and the buttoms are hard to use. You have to press them exactly right or they dont work. The fan was quiet at first but after about 4 months it started to get noisy.

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

I love this fan…. Had one just like it and still using it so found another one and bought it. It’s better built than newer fans and is quieter than them. Seems to last longer also as the old one is still going.

I may have just gotten a defective product, since I own another one of these fans in my workout room and it has been fine. But this one ran constantly for the summer months like a dream. Then we had a hot spell a month or so ago, and when I turned on the fan it was making a god-awful noise. I am really disappointed because the other one has been perfect. Of course I didnt keep the box and as I read the instructions for invoking the warranty I have to pay to have it returned? Thats kind of BS....

This fan is extremely simple to use. I set it up with no issue and started using it immediately. I like how clean the design is and that it doesn’t take up to much space. It is fairly quiet but I almost wish it was louder. I like to use louder fans as white noise when I sleep. The remote works very well so you don’t have to get up and walk directly to the fan every time you want to change a setting. Overall, this is a really nice fan and I think it’s well designed. The display on the top is top notch quality as well as everything else that comes along with the fan itself. Definitely a good buy!

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