Some Customer Reviews for Honeywell Fresh Breeze Tower Fan with Remote Control, HY-048BP
This review is from: Honeywell Fresh Breeze Tower Fan with Remote Control, HY-048BP (Kitchen)
I'm a hot sleeper, and I've tried many things to help cool things down so I can sleep. This fan has turned out to be the BEST thing I've used by far. I discovered this fan at a doctor's office and then again at a sleep center. After experiencing it at both locations, I decided to buy one for myself. I've had my fan for almost a year and could not imagine being without it now.
The fan performs all the normal features you'd expect of an oscillating room fan as already mentioned by many others so I'm not going to review those features. Instead, I'm going review one feature that is often overlooked: the temperature control.
The temperature control is the feature that puts this fan above all others. It literally behaves like an air conditioner! After turning the fan on, setting the temperature control is very easy. You just press the mode button one time and use the up/down arrow buttons to set a specific temperature (2 degree increments). That's all there is to it. Once set, the fan will run until the room has cooled down to the set temperature, and then it will shut off automatically. When the room temperature raises above the set temperature, the fan will turn itself back on automatically to cool the room back down. This behavior is that of an air conditioner!
The temperature control offers incredible flexibility. I can cool down just my bedroom while leaving the rest of the house at normal temperature so I don't freeze out my children. I can also cool down my bedroom only at night for sleeping while leaving the room at normal temperature during the day. Plus, because the air coming out of the fan is colder than the room temperature, the feeling of being cooled is instantaneous.
So not only does this fan offer all the benefits of an oscillating tower fan, but the temperature mode makes the air colder than room temperature, turning the fan into an oscillating tower air conditioner. The combination makes this particular fan the best one I have ever used.

UPDATE: I ran across my old review and thought I would update it. I bought two of these fans on June 29, 2011. It is now March 9, 2013 and both fans are still working perfectly! I haven't even had to replace the batteries on the remote controls yet even though I use one quite a bit (I never expected to use the flashlight feature so much, but I use it very often).
I am still very pleased with my fans. I use one every single day, almost all day long; although, it can be too cold at times so I turn it off if I get chilled. I am contemplating buying a couple more fans just to keep on hand since I know these fans won't last forever, and I can't imagine doing without one now. I've bought many different fans over the years and nothing has come close to cooling me down as well as this particular model. This was definitely one of the best buys I've made!

UPDATE 2: It is now April of 2014, and both of my fans are still working perfectly even after 3 years of daily use! I cannot be more pleased with the performance of these fans!
