Honeywell Comfort Control Tower Fan 3 Speed Settings, Oscillating 110 DEGREE, Timer Function, Remote Control, Easy to Use Controls HO 5500, Black, HO-5500RE

Noisy Less airflow and doverage Remote not legible at night Very feeble and not sturdy Overall quality is inferior and not upto the mark.

Il pacco è arrivato nei tempi previsti anche se un po lunghi. La confezione non era proprio ben messa ma il prodotto era integro. Funziona benissimo ed è anche abbastanza silenzioso, durante la notte non da fastidio. Di solito lo imposto a velocità 2, emette una piacevole brezza e con il telecomando si può impostare lo spegnimento automatico. Sono davvero contento dell'acquisto

It IS tall for a tower fan, certainly the tallest one I've ever owned. That said, when compared to a pedestal fan its footprint is reasonable (only around 12"), and actually it's probably the same height as a pedestal. It's just a bit of a shock when you first see it! In my opinion, height is just what's missing from smaller units, because unless you sit / sleep on the floor, you don't want the breeze blowing around your feet. You want it blowing over your body, and these are the right height for armchair and bed. I bought two of these, one for the lounge and one for the bedroom. In both locations, noise level is of some importance and I'm happy to report that these are fairly silent, even when oscillating, which is a top issue for me, as every other tower fan I've used made noises when swivelling. The middle speed is just about OK vs sound from my TV set up, but the highest speed will definitely have you reaching for the TV remote and volume adjustment. I'm not interested in the timer feature -- it will only run for up to four hours, not a whole night anyway -- and the breeze and nighttime modes are of no use to me as the change in noise / wind level I find a distraction. But as with the lounge arrangement, I find I can cope with even the highest fan speed noise and still sleep. The only negative is the ridiculous blue LEDs that manufacturers seem to believe that every consumer wants. I put yellow insulation tape over blue LEDs, which results in a pleasantly reserved green glow. I've no idea how long these will last and given that it's almost September, they will be going up in the attic for the winter soon, but they "feel" well made and I'm hopeful they will serve me well for a few years. I'd recommend to a friend. Update 25th May, 2017: Nearly two years on the two fans I purchased are still going strong. These are unlike any tower I've ever bought previously, which proved to be feeble, fragile with no longevity. Granted, these are plastic, but they feel sturdy enough to last me a while yet and they've been packed away and brought back to use twice now. The ultimate test of any product is whether you'd buy an identical replacement when they fail. I wouldn't hesitate to buy these again.... Update 22nd June, 2018: Well, towards the end of 2017 the fan in the lounge started to show its age as it began creaking and groaning on the lowest speed. This year, the one in the bedroom has started to rattle too. Thankfully, although I'm a light sleeper, I am capable of sleeping through it. To cure the noise I give the fan(s) a bit of a shake and it seems to deal with the problem. Usually. The next time I turn them on, there may be no rattle at all. It's totally random, but becoming more frequent. o I purchased two in August, 2015 and only used them a short while before packing away for the winter of that year. o Used all of 2016 without incident. o One started making a death rattle noise in the late summer of 2017. o The other followed suit in the early summer of 2018. So really we're looking at less than two years tip-top use before the mechanisms began to get noisy. A darn shame really, because they are unquestionably the best fans in terms of wind power per footprint I've ever owned. The remote does a nice job and they do cool you down. I guess nothing truly lasts that long these days?

Hoy lo he recibido y una vez montada la base lo he probado y sometido a todo lo que dan de sí sus funciones: el resultado extraordinario. Tiene potencia en su ventilación más fuerte con un nivel de ruido bastante contenido. A medida que bajas el nivel se atenúa el ruido. A nivel medio es perfectamente soportable. La oscilación funciona perfectamente y aunque estés alejado del aparato el aire te llega y produce una agradable sensación de bienestar. En el modo brisa y noche te llega el aire sin necesidad de tener el ventilador encima. He adquirido dos unidades y si bien es cierto que llegan con enchufe inglés, adquieres adaptadores por 3€ en cualquier tienda de electricidad. Amazon debería avisar de esta contingencia porque el producto viene de Edimburgo. De todos modos este detalle no le resta valor al ventilador que está muy bien acabado y con una muy buena relación calidad precio.

Un'ottima torretta di ventilazione. Meno male che l'avevo, altrimenti quest'estate sarebbe andata peggio. l'effetto 'brezza' mi ha sollevato da tante serate torride. Silenziosa e discreta. Un eccellente acquisto consigliabile a chi cerca un oggetto bello e funzionale!

Nos lo enviaron con enchufe inglés, así que tocó ir a por un adaptador, Amazon debería revisar que los productos que vende están adaptados al país del comprador. El ventilador está bien no mete mucho ruido y se puede usar para dormir.
