Directional concentrated air flow is perfect for the bedroom. The noise level is quiet even at the highest speed but usually the lowest speed is all that's necessary and at the low speed it's virtually silent in a bedroom. This is one of the most attractive fans on the market, it is available in either gloss black or gloss white and blends in well to the décor. No drafts, no rattles, no vibration, just a surprisingly powerful flow of air. I also like that it adjusts from pointing down to pointing straight up.
