Honeywell QuietSet Tower Fan (5 Speed Settings, Oscillating 75°, Timer Function, Remote Control) HY254

Product Information

The Dyson AM07 is a very quiet tower fan with an unusual design that is both very safe and highly effective. The high-end technology makes it the most expensive fan that we have reviewed, but if you want a state-of-the-art tower fan then this could be the choice for you. Tower fans: Tower fans are narrow, and save a lot of space. Although they are not as strong as pedestal fans, they still create a strong air-flow in the room and are very quiet. These fans usually come with a wide range of features that increase functionality. They offer a wide range of coverage, often providing a whole room with a circulation of air. Tower fans are more decorative than pedestal fans, and they often give a room a nice piece of flair or a talking point. They are usually a lot quieter than pedestal fans as well. As we touched on above, this Honeywell tower fan is a great budget option for cooling your home, it also comes with a good range of features considering its low price. The fan itself performed decently, but it was far from the most powerful fan we tested. Still, it will do a good job of circulating air in a small to medium-sized room. Holmes has good support options if you have problems or questions and the three-year warranty is one of the best we saw.

Oscillation is the other key feature. Nearly all tower fans oscillate, turning slowly from side to side to cover a larger area, but they differ in how wide the angle of oscillation is. Again, the bigger the space you want to cool, the wider you want it – and you can always turn oscillation off if you just want to keep yourself comfortable. How we test tower fans It has an attractive slimlin design too, so it won't take up too much time or throw off a modern or minimalistic looking home. We found it was easy to move this lightweight (8 pounds) fan. We also appreciate that it automatically shuts off if it's tipped over (which can be especially useful if you have dogs or kids running around). Other handy features include a magnetic remote control, bladeless design, an easy-to-change filter, and a sleep timer. It's worth noting that this fan was not as powerful as others we tested in the lab, and we felt the same way while testing at home. However, all of the other features, quiet operation, and beautiful, compact design still make it a splurge-worthy option. The best bit? This tower fan isn’t just a fan: it’s also an air purifier. The TP04 will remove 99.95% of ultra-fine particles, such as allergens and pollutants from the air around you – so you’ll be breathing in cleaner air, as well as feeling cooler. We've rounded up some of the best tower fans you can buy in 2023 with different features and price points.Honeywell Comfort Control Fans will spread a steady amount of cool air in a wide area due to their oscillation. Ranging from personal to whole room cooling, these oscillating fans come with multiple cooling speeds for increased comfort. The Honeywell Double Bladed Pedestal Fan comes with the added bonus of delivering 15% more air volume. What is the difference between white noise and pink noise? A tower fan's cooling power doesn't just rely on its size—its array of speed settings makes a major difference. Most often, a wider range of speeds makes for a more versatile machine. You can use a tower fan simply to create white noise, add a gentle breeze, or noticeably cool an entire room. Our best for large rooms option, the Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Fan has 10 settings, and even functions as an air purifier. A fan with fewer speeds might not provide you with the same options but offers simple air circulation, like the Lasko Wind Curve Tower Fan, which has three settings. The design is also said to shake a lot when it oscillates and the model does not come with any wind modes to adjust breeze or purification functions to filter the air, but this is expected for the lower price. It's best to refer to the individual fan's user instructions but in general, you can remove dust and debris from a tower fan's blades using a can of compressed air.

There are a few things you need to keep in mind when choosing the best tower fan for you: its size, price, features, noise level, and design. You want to think about what you use the fan for (to cool the whole room or to cool your face while you work at your desk) and how much you can afford. Honeywell is very popular in the tower fan market and has created a huge range of quiet and affordable products to choose from. The type of fan you need really depends on three factors: room size, budget and personal preference. Having a clear plan about fan placement is a great way to decide on which type of fan you need. The best news is that the QuietSet name isn’t just marketing hype: the HY245E is noticeably quieter than most conventional tower fans, even at its higher settings, with a night mode you might actually sleep through. Other fans are bigger and put out more air over a wider space, but this one delivers more than enough cooling for the average living room during the day and works better in the bedroom at night. And if the price is a little higher, it’s well worth paying.Firstly, it is important that the fan oscillates. Static tower fans won't cool as much air as they will focus on one spot. Fans that rotate will sweep the air, covering a greater area and cooling more of the room. A remote control will also make the tower much easier to control so that you can change settings or speed from the comfort of your couch. The Holmes tower fan also has some unique functionality. It is a dual-oscillating fan, a feature you don’t see often in fans. This allows you to stop the fan mid-oscillation and reverse its direction using the remote. This oscillating fan has a range of 90 degrees. These features give the tower fan a degree of versatility that is not often seen.
