I needed a fan to use in the living room during my workouts, and this tower fan is exactly what I was looking for. It is sleek and does not take up much space, so it is easy to tuck in a corner without being too noticeable when not in use. The fan looks very nice and high quality, but the base seems cheaply made and doesn't match well with the look of the fan. The fan has 8 settings, and provides a decent amount of airflow to our small living room but may not be powerful enough houses with larger rooms. The highest setting is relatively quiet, and the lowest setting is nearly silent. The remote control is a very convenient feature, and I like that there is a space to store it on the back of the fan to help prevent from losing it when not in use. While this may not be the most powerful fan, it works very nicely in our small space!
