About this deal

Oscillating remote control tower fan: The Honeywell Quietset tower fan provides powerful whole room cooling with quiet operation, oscillation and automatic shut off timer; 5 levels of sound and power settings let you choose what’s best for your environment. Control panel dimming feature - 5 lighting selections (100%, 75%, 50%, 25% and off) Tower fans at night walk a thin line between being powerful enough to have an impact on your body temperature, and not sounding like a jet engine taking off. Typically that’s why many models have a ‘night mode’ designed to offer a compromise between noise and performance – one that’ll let you get some sleep. Fan stalwart Honeywell’s latest model puts these credentials front and centre, with the word ‘quiet’ right there on the box for all to see.

But does it live up to its name? Yes, it actually does. The most impressive thing about it is that the difference between the top and bottom fan speeds isn’t actually that great in terms of volume to the naked ear. Indeed, bringing out the sound level metre reveals a volume of 72.9db at max speed when recorded immediately in front of the fan, dropping to 47db two metres away. That’s both slightly better and worse than the Dyson Pure Cool (70db / 51.9db) in the same metrics, but given the Honeywell is quieter at 2m and costs a fraction of the price, it’s a great result. The only downside with this tower fan that we noticed is that the degree of oscillation is only 90 degrees which is going to be a little restrictive if you have a large room that you want to cool. Increase your comfort; Using fans for air circulation in your home can help Increase your comfort, and help reduce energy costs as well; Honeywell carries a range of tower fans, floor fans, and oscillating fans find 1 for every room in the house If you have already started looking into tower fans, then you will be aware that there are many brands on the market at the moment and some of them are better than others. I have had a couple of these fans. When my small (other brand) tower fan quit working, I knew that I wanted a a Honeywell Quietset to replace it. One of my favorite features is that a few seconds after you set your fan the control panel lights turn off. No harsh lights shining into your eyes at night. This truly is a quiet fan. It is nice to have different fan speed levels. The lowest speed and at times the next one up are ideal for sleeping. You can also put on the timer, so after you are sound asleep the fan will turn off.One brand that consistently produces high quality products is Honeywell. With this in mind, we took it upon ourselves to test and review the Honeywell HYF26E QuietSet Tower Fan to see what it had to offer. Please carry on below for more information. Suitability - The Honeywell HYF260E QuietSet Tower Fan is ideal for living room, dining room, bedroom, pet room, home office and conservatory use. Its slim build allows it to fit in tight spaces, including between furniture and in corners. What we really liked about this was that it was not only quiet, but it also has an automatic light dimmer which dims the LED by 50%. We found that it was dim enough to not disrupt sleep at all.

Quiet cooling: Honeywell's QuietSet line of fans are quiet and powerful, so you'll feel the fan's cooling power with less sound Honeywell is very well known for producing high quality products for home heating and cooling, so we already assumed that we were going to be impressed with this tower fan and we were definitely not wrong.

Quieter than most and without giving up too much in the way of power, it's a better night's sleep in a box

One of the best ways for you to keep cool this summer is to invest in a high quality tower fan, whether this is for your home or your office. A good tower fan really can make the world of difference. Taking the tower fan out of the box, the first thing that we needed to do was to assemble the fan. Fortunately, we were very happy to see that this was just a matter of screwing the base onto the fan which took us only a matter of minutes. We were then ready to test the fan out properly. The reduced noise level is partly down to fan speed reduction, of course. Our anemometer reached 3.6m/s immediately in front of the fan (compared to other Honeywell scores of 4.4 and 5.1m/s) but measuring again two metres away, the difference was barely noticeable (0.7m/s against 0.8 and 1.2m/s). It does, however, have a slightly more limited angle of cooling than its stablemates, with a 60-degree spread of air movement, compared to the HO-5500RE’s 70 degrees. Conclusion

Features: 102cm - 5 Speeds - 90 Degrees Oscillation - Remote Control - Automatic Dimmer - 82.5 x 27.4 x 20.2 cm - 4.2kg Pros: Overall, we have to say that we were really pleased with the Honeywell QuietSet Tower Fan and we would definitely recommend it to everyone. We tested all 5 modes and we were really impressed by how powerful each of them is. We were also really surprised by how quiet this fan was, even at the medium to high wind modes. We wanted to test out the night mode next. Gently place the fan on its side, pressing the cord securely into cord guides along the inside of fan base, exiting through the notched opening ensuring a flat and stable base for the fan.

Summary

Five Fan Speeds - You can choose from five fan speeds. Such a wide range lets you select the option most suited to your requirements. It has a maximum air output of 2.5 metres per second. From a noise perspective, the unit outputs between 35dB (on the lowest setting) and 48dB (on the highest setting).

The quiet Night mode offers a similar volume to other Honeywell fans on their low settings, with a score of 68db. Unlike other Honeywell fans, night mode doesn’t alternate fan speeds, so light sleepers needn’t worry about changes in volume, either. Sleep Friendly - The unit is suited for night time use. As a bonus, its control panel dims by 50% after 15 seconds of no button input. When the controls are used, the screen lights up to 100% brightness. The Honeywell QuietSet Tower Fan features five speeds that are customizable and range from sleep to power cool settings. The lights on the control panel automatically dim after 15 seconds, making it ideal for nighttime use as well. This slim tower fan has touch-button electronic controls that are easy to use. A remote-control nest has also been included. The slim design of this unit is convenient because it does not take up too much space. The oscillating tower fan has a sturdy and durable base that is easy to setup, requiring no tools. The first thing that really impressed and surprised us was the amount of speed options that are available. Rather than your typical 3 wind modes, the Honeywell QuietSet Tower Fan has 5 different wind modes to choose from.
