Q: Why does this fan make a roaring noise

submitted by Ks - 9 years ago

  • A: I had two? Just ordered 2 more🍀

    submitted byShush - 10 months ago

  • A: This is not what you should expect from our fans. Please contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com and we will be happy to look into this. Thank you.

  • A: Sure wish I knew. It rumbles even on lowest setting

    submitted byMAH - 9 years ago

  • A: Mine makes a funny noise like it’s hitting against something every time it turns . very annoying . sometimes it’s fine. Sometimes it’s not.

    submitted byMoni jo - 1 year ago

  • A: That's strange - this is the quietest fan I've ever purchased. It's mostly used as white noise at night and the "Calm" setting is perfect and subtle. Even the strongest setting "Cool" doesn't make a roaring noise for me. I suggest taking it back for a new one as it seems like a faulty order.

    submitted byMarissaEO - 9 years ago

Q: How efficient is this fan if you have no central air conditioning?

submitted by MP - 3 years ago

  • A: NO. A fan moves air; an air conditioner conditions (changes) the air.

    submitted byMsAdventure - 2 years ago

  • A: It's not going to cool a whole house/apartment. In a bed room with light bed sheets and minimal clothing you can survive the night.

    submitted byNoth - 11 months ago

  • A: What that's the purpose of these things to blow out cooler air not just be a fan to just blow hot hair around. It's supposed to put out cool air not work same as a fan correct ???

    submitted bySandra - 2 years ago

  • A: We appreciate your inquiry. This fan will circulate the air that is already in your room which will help you feel cooler, but it will not generate cooler air to lower the room's temperature. If you have any additional questions, please email us at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com.

  • A: I bought this fan three years ago and have zero complaints. It works great, exactly as described. Very pleased with my purchase.

    submitted bydlc - 8 years ago

  • A: Dont get this... it doesnt come apart so dust will build up and eventually it will just blow dirty air at you.

    submitted byde1995 - 4 years ago

Q: How cold does it make a room?

submitted by King - 9 years ago

  • A: A.) We appreciate your interest in our product. This fan will recirculate the air in the room causing a breeze. It does not lower the temperature. We hope this is helpful.

  • A: It blows out hot air. Just picked it up on Oct 1st yesterday. Not cooling at all :( I have a 9mo old and cannot sleep right now throughout the night because of the weather.

    submitted byRosa - 2 years ago

  • A: I use the fan in my husband's office and the fan along with the central air conditioning system keeps the room comfortable. This room is a small room that usually is much warmer then other rooms in our home, therefore, I keep the fan going all the time when the outside temperature is 100 or more. It works very well for us.

Q: What's the height to point where base meets the actual fan air flow?

submitted by Carpe Diem - 3 months ago

  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. The Honeywell HYF260W QuietSet 5‑Speed Oscillating Tower Fan height from the floor up to the point where the base meets the airflow tower section is approximately 7–8 inches. The full fan height is about 32 inches, with the lower portion being the rounded base and support housing.

Q: Is this fan bladeless?

submitted by Meghan - 11 months ago

Q: In the highest setting do y’all hear the power go up and down. Not a steady air flow. Not sure if mine if defective

submitted by Power fluctuates - 2 years ago

  • A: I think mine is doing that at any of the settings, even the lowest one. It makes a sound like it’s fluctuating. I think mine is defective also and i just got it on 8/24/25

    submitted byTaylor - 9 months ago

  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. This is not the performance we would expect from the Honeywell Quiet Set Tower Fan. If the issue persists, please reach out to our dedicated support team at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com for further assistance.

Q: is this easy to assemble?

submitted by LadyNI - 3 years ago

  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. We would not expect this unit to be difficult to assemble. There are only a few steps required to assemble this fan. If you require any additional assistance, please reach out to us by emailing SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com.

    submitted byManufacturer Tech Support - 3 years ago
    Brand expert

  • A: Very easy. You have the fan, and two base pieces. Connect the two base pieces like Lego, unscrew the large red twist at the bottom of the fan. Put the fan on top of the base. Feed the wire through the red twist and base. Screw the red twist into place.

    submitted byNoth - 11 months ago

Q: How tall is this fan?

submitted by Deb - 6 years ago

  • A: Hi Deb - the QuietSet HYF260 Tower fan is approximately 40" tall. If you have any further questions or require assistance, please contact us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com and we will be happy to assist you. Thank you.

Q: Is this tower fan water cooling?

submitted by Michelle - 6 years ago

  • A: No, this item is a simple fan. It circulates the existing air within the room, helping you to feel cooler, it does NOT cool the room. You might be thinking of a portable Air Conditioning/Evaporative Cooler Unit.

    submitted byMike - 6 years ago

  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. This is not a water cooling fan. This is a whole room tower fan. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com. Thank you.

Not a quiet fan (on low setting)

Motor rattles on the lowest setting. It’s actually quite loud too, very hard to deal with. Cannot market this fan as quiet with such a bad defect even though the fan has no other issues besides the low setting.

Great fan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fan was great at circulating the air around the room. It was easy to assemble and has a very bright light on it. Not so great at direct air but that's OK.

Best fan ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this fan! This Honeywell is super slim and fits in the tiniest corners. The fan is ultra quiet, and there's absolutely no vibrations that drive you crazy. Putting it together was a breeze and it feels very durable. My favorite feature is the white noise setting, which I use every night while I sleep.

Don't buy

On my second fan thinking things would be different but no. If you accidently knock this over or bump into it, it no longer is quiet. The roator motor makes an obnoxious ticking sound now. The only setting I can use it on is high. So not durable and high noise level and not super portable. The airflow sucks if you have a raised bed and want a fan on you while you sleep. Not worth the money.

Actually obsessed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with this fan! I’ve been using it nonstop every day since it arrived last month and it’s still working greatly. It has several different settings based on the sound and intensity. It rotates an it also comes with a remote!

Perfect white noise fan!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this fan! It was perfect for my nursery as it makes the perfect white noise! It also blows COLD air and it not just circulating the air like a traditional fan. And having a remote makes it so much more convenient rocking the baby.

Best overall fan!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan is so the best fan I have ever used. The fact that is doesn’t have blades is so great. I don’t have to worry about any pets or kids hurting themselves. It is so quiet. It has just the right amount of white noise. It’s very soothing. It’s very light and portable. I can easily move it around anywhere I need it.

A little noisy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Honeywell Quietset Whole Room Tower Fan in White is nice looking and fairly easy to assemble. The base was a little trouble and wouldn't go on easily, but finally attached. The fan didn't take up much space at all and was easy to operate. On any setting, there was noise which was a little disappointing being the name is Quietset. So far the fan has performed as expected with the highest setting blowing a little cool air which was a plus.

Tower fan....no air

Purchased 2 units. Returning both. You need to be in VERY close proximity of the unit to reap the air flow. Using my ceiling fan + the tower fan was somewhat better but the tower fan alone was not satisfactory.

It’s great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really great fan! It’s super quiet and isn’t too bulky in the living area of our house. The variety in settings is really great - it can definitely cool off an entire room which is a big deal living in Florida. And I personally love the white noise setting! When it oscillates it isn’t super clunky and I love that there’s a timer function on it. The remote is great too!

Very versatile and classy looking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan is very functional. It supports multiple modes that even includes a "white noise" feature if you have trouble sleeping. It is pretty powerful but not quite as strong as a pedestal oscillation fan. I use this in my bedroom as it keeps the room cooler all day and at night I can use the remote to set the mode and intensity I need for a comfortable sleep. It even has a timer that will automatically turn off after 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours. I would definately recommend this product for its features and versatility.

Super Quiet yet powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As the name says this is truly a very quiet fan. It has 5 different modes from slow to super fast but all the settings the fan remains pretty smooth and quiet. Easy to navigate with the remote. It has a sturdy body and a sleek look.

Powerful and super quiet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honeywell’s Quietset 5 delivers just that … it is extremely quiet for a powerful fan. Today is 90 degrees out and stifling in the house, and I plugged in the fan, and it made the room so comfortable. It has a remote, making it very convenient to adjust the speed and have it rotate. I really like the design of it being a tower, and it is slim, making it not stick out in a room. You can adjust the speed either with a remote which takes two AAA batteries, or by just touching the top of the fan. It is so easy to set up and use. I love it!
