HoneywellAdvanced QuietSet 16" Stand Fan with Noise Reduction Technology & Remote Control-Black, 18.8 x 58.8 x 55 cm

This fan is expensive for the fan. I bought a couple in March to be ready for the summer heat. Tried it a few times before with some of the heat we had in May.The fan is a bit of an awkward thing to put together but follow the instructions and the job is easy.The fan is quiet and I didn't know the fan had a remote so score there.The amount of air this thing passes through will cool a few people in a large room. I have it on setting 3 and it produces more push than the Honeywell tower fans. Its a worthy fan and a good one to have in a bedroom or somewhere you need quiet.The fan looks smart in a contemporary setting. There is a light that people complain of. For me it's a none issue unless you do get kept awake by the slightest of lights such as the time on a digital alarm clock. Another good touch is the sleep settings. I don't use this but I'd imagine some people may find it useful.The controller seems to work fine although I haven't put it through its paces. I can't remember if it came with batteries or not. One of the models does. If not no biggy.For this price point I think it is a good fan. You could go cheaper and not be confident in how long it will last. Honeywell are a respected brand and known brand which is why I bought 2 of them.It has solid plastic fans and not the film plastic that some cheaper brands opt for.I would recommend to anyone that has the budget.

Firstly, I've been through a number of stand fans, most are largely the same design with a different logo printed on, this is not one of those fans.Build quality and assembly is exceptional, and if you've ever built a stand fan up before, this one is just as straight-forward. Only downside is that it didn't come with a paper instruction booklet. This fan looks great, very modern with simple gloss black aesthetics, only downside is the red plastic retaining nut for the fan blade, but this can't be seen from most angles anyway.The controls on the fan are great, 1. A simple power button 2. A timer function button (1,2,4,8 hour selection) 3. Speed control (5 settings) with a dimming blue gradient indicator light.The noise levels of this fan are amazingly low when compared to the alternative fans available on amazon. This fan did get slightly louder after a few months of usage, but is still super quiet. Airflow is good too, it creates a quiet gentle breeze on the lowest setting and a strong gust on the highest setting, perfect for most climates.The remote isn't great, it feels cheap but does make it far more convenient to change the fan settings without having to get up and go to the fan, the range is good enough to reach across a standard living room or bedroom. It uses 2 AAA batteries, and allows you to turn the fan on, set the timer, and adjust the speed.

I was obviously sent a reject / second item - this Honeywell fan is rubbish which really surprised me - the motor rattles and makes odd scraping noises, the speeds don’t work at all it’s just 3 speeds instead of 5 the electronics in it are totally malfunctioning. I am more than disappointed and being disabled I cannot easily at all repack it into its box and get it to an Amazon collection point (Post Office) for return / refund. I will never buy anything Honeywell brand again and certainly not on Amazon, no quality control - sellers use the platform to shift on their dodgy stock, simple as that !!

It says it is quietset and it truly is. Both myself and children are autistic with hyperacusis (noise sensitivity) and we have tried other fans that say they are quiet but they are not. This fan even at the highest setting does not bother us; saying that the fan is so powerful that it does the job on the 1st setting for most of the time. It is sturdy and doesn't look cheap. I did struggle with the instructions a bit but if I'd turned the page I would have found they were written out on that page, so totally my fault. Saying that it took me 10minutes top to put it all together. Having a remote is good and the timer function so you can fall asleep and it will turn itself off. Will be buying others for other rooms.

Quite fan, a bit tricky to assemble given poor instructions.

This is the second Quietset fan I’ve bought, the first one I bought was back in 2016 and I’ve noted some improvements to this new one from that. They’ve improved the mechanism that holds up the head, it’s definitely stronger. The first fan can no longer hold its head up and ended up breaking, hence the reason for this purchase. I’ve also noted that the lighting on the front is also dimmer. Otherwise it’s the same fan and whilst not silent, is one of the quietest on the market whilst still moving a fair amount of air. I’ve tried other fans and none have the same amount of performance being as quiet as these are and for the money, they last a long time. Although I broke the mechanism on the first fan, it still works. Other fans I’ve had, the motors just end up dying and seizing up. So, I would recommend this just for pure value for money.

If you want to buy this fan because it is quiet, don’t expect it to be that quiet. It most certainly has a humming noise even at the lowest setting and the first fan I received got noisier by the minute and developed clicking noises too, which became unbearable at night. Thankfully Direct Online Warehouse arranged for a replacement that at the moment seems slightly better. Still humming, but no clicking clacking. It still not as quiet as the price mark suggests. However, sturdier than many others and good quality. The power of air it produces is good too. Really not sure it deserves such a high price tag for a fan to be honest. Let’s hope it lasts!
