> 24 hourFor mild cool air this will do but if you are in a hot room this fan won’t do. The remote is awkward to hold. And if you turn on the fan with the remote, you’ll need to get up and turn off the fan lights. This design is really dumb to be honest. There is a slight sound from the fan motor, it’s not really bad or horrible but can get a bit annoying in a silent room.

> 24 hourBought 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.

> 24 hourIt does its job well. The remote and timer settings are very helpful. Well-thought design occupies very less space and fits anywhere.

> 24 hourThis 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!

> 24 hourThis is a very good fan, the blowing power is amazing keeps it nice and cool in the room. My only complaint is when I ordered the black unit it said it came with a mini tower table fan when I got my package only one box was delivered, so I called Amazon and Amazon told me “well no that’s part of the description you do not actually get a mini tower fan.” Save yourself $20 and buy the white one It’ll still work the same. Would not even offer to credit the difference. I was told to return and order the white one if I wanted the $20 back. Do better Amazon. :-(

> 24 hourIt says it’s powerful but have not found it to be the case. The capacity is limited. It’s a smaller fan than I anticipated based on the website description it is not as efficient either.

> 24 hourReally pleased with this portable unit. It is quiet and has nice controls that are easy to use/push/set to your needs. Slim design means it does not take up space - mine sits right next to the kitchen island for use in the kitchen. No remote control but not needed for my use. 5 star.
