"Good-bye, ugly box fan! Hello, gorgeous cooling tower!" writes one of the over 20,000 reviewers who give this tower fan five stars. "This is the fan I've been dreaming of for years. It is whisper-quiet and unobtrusive, while pushing out a lot of airflow." And hundreds say the oscillation aids that airflow. "Use it often and haven't had any issues with squeaking or clicking like other fans," writes one reviewer of the oscillation. Another says, "It has broad range of movement when oscillating. When on high speed, it powerfully moves the air." And while there are a lot of oscillating fans on the market, one reviewer writes, "There is no comparison this fan is MUCH better than those." They add, "I'm not sure how but it seems to blow out cooler air, not cold but cooler. I love [that] you can sit on the couch and [feel] it blow over your entire body, instead of just one area."
Over 14,000 reviewers gave this air-circulating floor fan a five-star review, and despite its under-$30 price tag, dozens say it works just as well as the more expensive models further down this list. "It looks like a Honeywell, but has the blades and motor power of a Vornado," one such reviewer reports. While it may look small, another satisfied reviewer says "make no mistake: This fan has power to spare and is surprisingly quiet." On the lowest setting, they say "it creates a nice breeze while making no more noise than your average computer." Using the fan on its highest setting, another reviewer admits, does make it a little louder, but they say the performance you get in return is "no joke": "I can see my floor lamp shaking slightly, my hanging plant swaying, and my other tapestry waving as air travels throughout my 144 square-foot room."
While other tower floor fans on this list have timers, this one offers the biggest programmable range — from one to 15 hours. And timer aside, reviewers say that the Pelonis tower fan cools rooms both large and small. One reviewer, who lives in the South and has no AC in the front of their house, shares that the heat was "unbearable" — until they purchased this floor fan. "It has a wide swing to cover the whole room while it rotates. It was easy to put together. I like that it has a timer function so I can make sure it goes off when we're not home. I don't know how we managed without this." Another reviewer says that it "looks great in my living room" and assures that it "really puts out some power." Like the first reviewer, they also appreciate the timer and considerable cooling ability. "I like the sleep timer, and it has an eco setting where you get one powerful blast every third time that it oscillates," they explain. "It feels like a natural breeze."
This tower fan is 20 inches taller than the one above, and reviewers really appreciate the extra lift. "We needed a fan that was tall enough to provide air over our bed," one explains. "Standard tower fans are typically 40–42 inches tall so we don't feel any air when in our bed. This one is tall enough and provides a beautiful cool air." Another says, "This fan is hitting ME right where I need it." They continue, "My face and upper body can feel the cool and it makes a world of difference. Also it is strong enough to feel across the room at my table." Even if you don't currently have a need for a super tall fan, "You can change the height to meet your needs and adjust the vents up or down so you get air pushed exactly where you want it." The fan itself is pretty powerful as well. As one user concludes, "The fan is super powerful, the oscillate feature is amazing and works great, it is easy to assemble, and the remote works incredibly well."
Reviewers say this tower fan (which has five more speeds than the Lasko) is great for circulating air in areas that are closed off, like the breakfast nook where one person uses it to "direct air flow to all who sit around the table" when it's particularly hot out. She also likes having it out by the pool: "This fan gives a nice breeze and helps evaporate any perspiration on your skin, which cools you off." Another reviewer calls this fan "one of the best investments" because not only does it circulate air well, but it's also "very quiet so you almost forget it's on." The tower fan has eight different speeds, and one customer says even the highest speed is still fairly quiet. Plus, it has a "small footprint," so it can fit in smaller rooms and spaces.
"Just received my fan and absolutely love it already," one reviewer writes, mainly because it is "SUPER easy to put together. It pretty much is put together when you receive it besides two parts. Puts off a lot of cold air. Very pleased and the price was GREAT." Another says, "You pretty much took this out of the box attached a bottom piece, put in your favorite spot, and chose your setting." This fan has three different modes and three different speeds, along with "all the neat bells and whistles" including a "timer, intensity, oscillation or direct flow and all can be controlled via remote, how convenient," writes one reviewer. It also works pretty quickly: one reviewer notes the temperature "went from 82 to 75 in less than an hour."
Reviewers like that this Lasko tower is easy to assemble, requiring no tools and "just a few screws to attach the base to the main unit." And once that's out of the way, you've got your hands on a "butt-kicking, tornado-starting wind monster," which one reviewer describes as "one of the best fans, period." Lasko 2510 owners commend its functional remote, which makes it "very customizable as far as speed, oscillation, etc." Its enthusiastic owners also appreciate how small of a footprint this tower fan takes up, making it a worthy buy for anyone with limited space who still wants powerful, cooling relief. As one reviewer writes, "I'm surprised at how powerful this slim design is. I like that it can fit anywhere since I have limited space. The highest speed , which is 3 is quite sufficient for my needs. I have it positioned pointing toward my bed and it's quiet enough so as not to disturb my husband and not to blow us away like other fans."
With 18 different remote-controlled settings and a relatively low noise level, this Amazon Basics floor fan gets a five-star review from over 13,000 reviewers. "I have literally said out loud on at least three occasions that it is the best money I've spent in a while," one writes. Along with the fan's low noise level and "hefty base," their favorite feature is the remote, which they call a "deal maker! I frequently wake up in the middle of the night dealing with 'my own private summer' and don't have to get out of bed to turn it on. I can simply hit the remote and drift back to sleep in cool bliss." Of its many settings, another reviewer who upgraded to this "lighter" fan writes that they would have been "happy with slow, medium, and fast, with a choice of oscillating and not. But in addition, I can choose 'texture:' 1) a consistent fan like my old one, 2) a varying fan to mimic nature, or 3) a soft fan to lull me to sleep."
"Absolute luxury … a fan with a remote," one reviewer writes of this less-expensive Black & Decker stand fan. "Easy to put together, works great, high setting is pretty powerful, long enough cord to put in real places where you'd want a fan." Many like the remote, in particular, because they can control the fan from afar — even bed. "I hate it when you are freezing at night in bed and just too tired to get up and out … with this one, you just grab the remote and take care of it," one writes. "This fan works great and was very reasonably priced, especially for an oscillating fan with a remote," another concludes. "It may not be an air purifier, but frankly that feature on my $400 fan didn't seem to make any difference in air quality, anyway." Speaking of air quality, the rest of the fan gets high praise as well. "I love everything about this fan," one says. "It gives adequate airflow on any speed." Another says, "The lowest setting puts out plenty of power without being noisy." In fact, one writes, "It's quiet and is the perfect level of white-noise I love about fans."
Unlike many of the tower fans on our list, this pedestal fan is easy to clean. One reviewer writes, "I would order this again just based on how snug secure and easy it is to remove the exterior blade gate (really should find the proper name for this). My old Lasko chatters, it's a total pain to fit back in place after cleaning, the plastic is razor sharp, and the exterior fan gate thing is rough plastic which catches dust fast and never comes completely clean." But with this Pelonis fan, the "fan gate shell is metal, with metal latches to keep the gate attached…This is a feature that is welcomed over the Lasko plastic nubs that have to be pressed in place, it will make cleaning much easier as those nubs are poorly manufactured." In addition to that, this oscillating, adjustable height fan works perfectly. "Total assembly time was about 5 minutes and it cools very well with three adjustable fan speeds and a timer option as well," writes one reviewer. Another says "The Pelonis fan oscillates smoothly and it is easy to adjust the head angel." They add, "The base provides a solid foundation — no wobble."
Reviewers had high expectations for the sound level of this Rowenta fan, especially with a name like "Turbo Silence." Thankfully, it surpassed them. "I would pay twice as much," declares one reviewer who says this fan is "literally unbelievable … it is so quiet and powerful that the same day I set up the fan I bought another one for my bedroom. It really is that impressive." Another reviewer who was already amazed at how quiet the low setting was later realized "it wasn't even the silent mode. I literally can't hear it … yet I can still feel it." And despite its stealthy volume, this fan is more powerful than most, according to multiple reviewers. Writes one, "These fans are legit and if you have any other fan from Walmart or your local grocery store, I'm sorry to break it to you but that is just a sample, that doesn't even come close [to] the quality and feel of the air this thing is capable of putting out and circulating."
Reviewers love that this floor fan operates with a rechargeable battery, which means "no more tripping over a power cord or being limited by the nearest wall power outlet," according to one reviewer. Another reviewer — who was able to take this fan to Honduras thanks to its adjustable height — says it was "the best thing. Didn't have to look for a plug … the power goes out quite often and it is still keeping me cool." Reviewers also praise the battery's performance, like one who says they've used it "for about a week every morning and haven't had to recharge it yet so the battery life is great!" And when it comes to the fan's strength, another reviewer calls it "a little powerhouse … for such a small package, it puts out a lot of air flow."
One reviewer notes that the Vornado 723 packs the power of "[some] handheld, entry-level leaf blowers" on its lowest setting. "Zeus himself could not muster a storm to match the air moved by a Vornado," writes another, while a third says they could "feel the air while sitting on my sofa and noticed my ceiling fan was spinning without even being turned on." One "very hot sleeper" adds, "This fan cooled off my room quickly enough that I was able to immediately get under the covers and go to bed."
Reviewers use this industrial floor fan both indoors or out, but because of its higher noise level, most prefer it for outdoor use. "Its velocity is much greater than expected," writes one reviewer, who purchased it for their back porch and likes how it "gives us a breeze and helps keep the flies away." Another reviewer who lives in Texas assures that humidity is no match for it either: "Sitting on my patio is something I enjoy doing a lot, but it was often uncomfortable due to lack of nice consistent breeze," they write. This fan "solves the problem" even on the lowest setting, and they say "it's not too noisy," even while "it packs a powerful punch … Thanks to this fan I look forward to more enjoyable days on my patio."
This so-called "monster fan" did the trick for those in search of a fan with some serious horsepower. "This thing is a serious, heavy-duty fan," says one reviewer. "It's a little noisy and has a distinct metallic ringing sound audible underneath the fan noise. But it moves a TON of air. Great for airing out the house or garage or just to cool you down when it's wicked hot outside." Another reviewer writes that this "Industrial Fan" is exactly that. "It is not attractive, it is not quiet, and it moves a lot of air. Placed inside the door of my detached garage, it cooled down the 1,900-square-foot open area on a 90-plus-degree day, definitely surprising me." And another reviewer who calls this fan "POWERFUL" says to expect "a cyclone in whatever space this fan is occupying."
[Editor's note: This fan is currently out of stock, but there several similar fans available — like Simple Deluxe's 20-Inch Industrial Floor Fan , which has an average of 4.6 stars and over 3,000 reviews and is in stock for $61.]
