Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Oscillating Tower Fan (5 Speed Settings, Oscillating 80°, Timer Function, Auto-Off Lights, Remote Control) HYF260

When I go to bed it has to be very, very quiet as the slightest noise alerts me.. This, (and I haven't gone to bed yet is absolutely FANtastic..(see what I did there?) I took 3 or 4 minutes to clip base together and fit unit to that, tested it and felt a breeze but no noise!! Thought it was a draught blowing through and it wasn't working but it was, so quiet it sounds like a gentle breeze you would hear outside from your bed (in sleep mode) only a little louder on setting 2 and progressively louder in step 3, 4 and 5 but nothing so bad.Remote control, timer and oscilates too. Totally recommend this. I will have it relatively close to the bed, at the foot, for maximum cooling in almost total silent sleep mode. Barely any weight to it so very easy to move around though I will now buy a couple more.Thoroughly recommended.

The media could not be loaded. I ordered the HYF260. This was not via Amazon direct ( you need to click other sellers) but a via a reseller ( cheapest and default option when buying new). After a 3 nights, the unit developed a rattle. Annoying when trying to sleep. Then I noticed a review on here where someone else had a similar issue and ordered another unit direct from Amazon which did not have an issue . I've just done the same. I've set it up and no rattle *so far*. Then on closer inspection, I note that the model dispatched from Amazon direct is Hyf260e. Type EFN260 MGH, with a white plug. The model via reseller is HYF260BE/ WE, Type EFN260DC with a black plug. Not only that but the Amazon direct model on its lowest, sleep mode setting is less powerful than the the reseller model. You have to crank it up to 2 to get same airflow. Another important difference is that the Amazon direct model light does not totally turn off after 10 seconds but dims by 50% which is just pointless and too bright. . The reseller model goes off. This is an important difference as having a light shining up does not aid a good sleep if the unit is placed in the bedroom. I am going to keep testing the Amazon direct one for a week to see if any rattles start, then decide whether to return either model.The plus side is the fans look good, are cheap and relatively quiet assuming no rattle. It has a small remote you can tuck behind the recess ' handle' at back. Airflow is just OK for a small bedroom, but sleep mode, the lowest, quietset setting is too feeble on the Amazon model. The tower rotates which can be done via remote. Note the remote does not control the 1,2,4 & 8 hour sleep modes, you need to select these on the unit

The air is cool and the fan is silent, working hard without making a racket! This product is great value for money! Light, easy to assemble, and looks pretty stylish with its multiple digital settings! The question is will it stand the test of time and be performing the same in a year? My personal guess, yes, judging from its sturdy exterior! And the fact that it’s been around in our office for about 2!!

This is the most amazing fan ever! I wanted a white fan and as this fan was always out of stock, I bought and returned two other white fans before I decided to watch this listing until it was in stock. Sure enough, Amazon came up trumps and I was so lucky to get one... I've had Honeywell fans before and have always been delighted with them. But always in black. The build is solid, its pure white yet unobtrusive, looks very stylish and that's before we even get on to its abilities. Its perfect. No less than five levels of fan, timer allows a choice of four specific shut off times and a remote control which can be kept on the fan in its own special place - no chance of losing it! Rotates in silence and the fan itself works whisper quietly. Unnoticeable noise at night but fills the room, even on the lowest setting, with a soft cool breeze. Yes, its expensive if compared to other fans but with a three year guarantee, it really is worth every penny. So glad I waited for this one and I cannot recommend highly enough.

The Honeywell tower fan is really quiet on lowest speed, ideal for hot summer nights. 5 speed settings. Oscillator. Timer runs 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours. Remote control included. Works manually or remotely.Quietest fan I've owned.I'm a light sleeper, it doesn't keep me awake on the lowest speed. It keeps my hayfever at bay and doesn't take long to cool a room. There's also no vibration noises from the tower fan. Bit expensive, but seems well worth the money, especially as it has a 3 year guarantee. Only time will tell if it's going to last.Easy assembly: remove metal screw bolts from the two sections of the base, clip base together and refit screw bolts. Next remove red screw collar from fan base. Place mains lead through red screw collar. Place fan onto base and slide red screw collar up to base, and fully tighten. I assembled it in approximately 5 mins and had it working.

The quiet setting Just means the fan is on its lowest setting so is quiet and not very Noisy like all fans. And just like any other fan, you turn the power up and the fan gets noisier. That's the bad side. And now for the good side. It is a very good fan, very powerful and works well. Comes with the all essential remote control so you can turn it off and on.
