Amazon Basics Digital Oscillating 3 Speed Tower Fan with Remote, Black

I was initially skeptical because the reviews were so mixed, but it was a good price. I’m glad I bought it! Granted it’s not “silent” but it wasn’t loud enough where I couldn’t fall asleep. It effectively cooled down my bedroom. The remote is great for when I want to adjust without getting out of bed. Great buy.

I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews on this product. I needed to replace my old noisy fan and this Amazon basics oscillating fan does not disappoint! As far as noise is concerned, it has a slight whine to it, but overall it is very very quiet in my opinion, compared to other fans on the market. Wind level is perfect for my living room area. On level one the wind feels very pleasant & levels 2/3 it is very strong wind. I personally only use level 2 when I feel like I'm overheating while binge watching NETFLIX 😂. I would definitely recommend this fan for the value, sleekness, quietness and THE REMOTE!

Fan moves air and is relatively quiet. Remote works well and has all the necessary controls. For the price it’s a good value compared to other name brands.My first unit did have to be returned as the box had multiple pieces floating around in it. Amazon quickly resolved this.

Let me start by saying I specifically bought this fan for the white noise. The fan makes a good amount of sound and is pleasant for sleeping. It oscillates and provides a good amount of cooling too. It’s very easy to use and assemble.We did have to put some tape over the light on the top though for sleeping. If you’re looking for a quiet fan, this is not the one. It makes good noise.

Up until now I have used traditional rotating blade fans. I thought I would try a tower fan to see how it compares.In general, the fan works as advertised. It looks more attractive than a traditional fan, and it is quieter - although instead of hearing the blades whooshing the air, you can hear a motor with somewhat of a high pitched whine. I prefer the white noise of traditional fan blades pushing the air, even though it is louder.This fan seems to move a decent amount of air, although it is focused in a column rather than spread out like a traditional fan. This fan will rotate on its base to move that focused column of air back and forth.The three speeds have enough variety to give you good control of how much air you want moved. Low is fairly low, and is good if you are sitting very close to the fan. Medium is a decent step up from low, and high is a decent step up from medium. I know some fans I've used have three speeds but two of them are so close together than you really only have two different settings; not so with this unit.There are three "modes" - normal, natural, and sleep. Natural varies the speed of the fan every 5-10 seconds or so, which I suppose is supposed to make it feel like a breeze coming and going. Sleep is supposed to be better for sleeping, but I don't personally feel/hear any different between the sleep mode and normal mode. There is also a sleep timer where you can set the fan to go off in 1-8 hours, in 1 hour increments. One other thing to note about sleeping with this fan - if you sleep in a dark room, there are blue indicators on the top of the fan that are on when the fan is on, and there is no way to turn them off aside from covering the top of the unit with something to block the light. There is, at a minimum, the speed indicator number (1, 2, or 3) and if you have natural or sleep mode, there is an additional blue light. These lights would reflect on a white ceiling and bother anyone who likes to sleep in a dark room.The remote control has the same setting buttons as the top of the fan It requires two AAA batteries, which are not included. It would be nice if there were a place on the tower to clip the remote when not in use, but I don't see one. There is an indentation on the back of the tower where it looks like they might have planned for a remote, but it's not the right shape to take this remote. Maybe there was a different remote included at one time, or maybe the tower design department and remote design department had a miscommunication. There is a notch on the back of the remote that you could possibly use to hang it on a screw, but the remote would hang upside down so I don't know if that is really what it was meant for.Overall I feel that the build quality is adequate, and the unit works. It would have been nice to have a blackout mode for the control lights, and a place to store the remote control. Although this type of fan may fit better into room decor, I still prefer, and will continue to purchase traditional blade fans.PROS: - Quieter than a traditional fan - Better design to fit into room decor - 3 distinct speed settings - Rotating rotating motion to spread out the breeze - Decent length power cordCONS: - No control light blackout mode for using in a dark bedroom - Motor has a whine sound - The air that is moved is a narrow vertical column, not whide-spread - No place to hold the remote when not in use - Not sure what the difference in the "sleep" mode is, seems just like the "normal" mode - "Natural" mode seems more of a gimmick

This item is not only petite and pretty for any space, it does the job!I'm in Vegas and I sleep with it in my room at night... and comfortably. The oscillating feature works great, but I'm stingy and just keep it focused on me! Kidding, but yes, it's a great item to have and worth the money! Very good for concentrated areas so that you're not wasting electricity trying to cool the entire living space.I definitely recommend the product! And talk about quiet! I turn it on and fall right asleep.

Let me tell ya, I live on the third freaking floor of an apartment building. Which is great, but it got up to almost 100 degrees in there one day and I’m from the northwest, so really anything over 85 is too hot for me. But this little guy is PERFECT. It keeps me cool. The timer is freaking phenomenal, I don’t like to have it running all night because electric is expensive, so I have it on in the evening hours and when I go to bed I set this baby in “night” mode and set it for a few hours so that the noise helps me sleep and the fan itself keeps me nice and cool. This is so so worth it’s price.The only reason I didn’t rate the censored is because I haven’t purchased batteries for it yet. 👍🏻

This is a wonderful fan. We own 2 of them and use them in our bedrooms for extra air flow. I enjoy everything about them, even their shape. They are also very easy to clean. The only things that are a bit annoying are the noise level and the bright light that emanates from them, making it hard to go to sleep.I have a piece of black felt I put over the light. It would be nice if someone would make one whose light can be turned on and off. Still and all, I would recommend this fan.

Lo que más me gustó de este ventilador es el sonido es de los más silenciosos que conozco y su diseño me parece muy bueno, es ligero luce moderno y fácil de instalar.El nivel de aire es tal como lo que esperaba suficiente para una habitación pequeña a mediana.Su control también funciona bien y después de casi un mes de uso, no hace ningún rechinado al girar (cosa que había leído en otras reseñas que llegaba a hacer).

Hace ruido sin embargo nada molesto

Es facil de instalar y al nivel 3 ventila muy bien, lo malo es que la calidad de los materiales no son los mejor en relacion al precio.

El peor ventilador que he usado, no sopla lo suficiente para refrescar, hay mejores opciones con la marca T-FAL

Creo que le falta mas velocidad y se me hizo pequeño
