electriQ Tower Fan Bladeless 24" with 3 Speeds, Remote Control and Mood Light

Product Information

One thing to bear in mind is that a CR2025 battery needs to be purchased separately for the remote, as one doesn’t come supplied. Furthermore, I rated the fan higher if it had an auto mode to change the speed as the temperature changed.

This relatively affordable pedestal fan has a lot going for it – it’s quiet, sturdy, can be controlled via a smartphone app (or your voice) and has a whopping 26 speed settings, plus a ‘natural’ mode that creates a varying breeze-like effect. This was especially true when we had the fan on the 90 degree oscillation mode, since it provided a wider coverage and circulated fresh air to every corner in the room. Energy Efficiency: Those with shut-off timers got higher ratings because this feature allows you to save money on energy if you forget to turn it off. Yes, desk fans are generally the cheapest and lowest-powered but are usually the best choice at close range. How much electricity a fan uses depends on its wattage, how long you use it for, and the cost of electricity.Pedestal fans, which consist of a circular bladed unit on top of a stand, tend to be more powerful than tower fans. It comes with 5 quiet control speeds, an auto shut-off timer (that you can set for 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours) and remote control. It is recommended for a medium to a large room and comes with remote control also with 90 degrees of oscillation to deliver optimal coverage. One is to place a bowl of ice water in front of a fan so that heat energy is removed from the air to melt the ice. There are also handheld fans, handy in a sweltering tube train, but so low-powered that we don’t review them here.

I considered the overall design, features, ease of use, energy efficiency, and the value for money spent.

During the summer we’re constantly moving it from room to room, and you can do this with great ease. Its lowest setting gives off just 42 decibels, which apparently is the same level of noise as a quiet library. You can also pre-set the fan to shut off between 1 to 15 hours, keeping your room cooler for longer. Pay in 3 is a form of credit, may not be suitable for everyone and use may affect your credit score.

Ease of Use: I examined how easy the manual controls were to use and whether they had a touchscreen or remote control to make them less hassle to use. How powerful the bladeless fan is will depend on its motor and how efficiently it carries out the previous steps. Each product got a higher rating if the remote had a clever magnet to attach it to the fan or a built-in storage spot.The light is located in the centre of the fan, surrounding the ‘hoop’ opening; it can be either white, green, purple or blue and creates an ambient glow without being too bright.
