Bionaire Window Fan with Reversible Airflow Blades – 3-Speed Settings, Programmable Thermostat, LED Display, Remote Control, Fits 24–36" Windows, No Assembly Required

If you're in the market for a window fan this one is for you! I own two of these now and they work great! It is a powerful fan with good airflow. Quieter than another brand I tried recently. It comes with a convenient remote control, has 3 speeds, inflow/outflow options which can run independently at the same time, and an optional thermostat which shuts the fan off once the air reaches the temperature you set. You can actually "feel" the air move with this one compared to another brand I tried. It is very effective at cooling the room quickly. I love this fan!

Great window fan. Higher than most but you are getting what you pay for. This window fan checks off all of the boxes. Remote, air exhaust, air intake, air exchange, thermostat, variable speeds, adjustable sliders for different window sizes and to top it all off: comes with a remote. This has been a big saver for me during the evenings when it is cooler to cool off my townhouse and on days where it is not warm enough to use the air conditioning. If you are someone who likes a cooler bedroom at night to sleep, purchase this and turn it on low with air intake or air exchange. Your room will be perfect. The only missing bonus would be WiFi connectivity.

I was very skeptical when buying the window fan due to the amount of mixed or negative reviews of its construction and built quality and how it will last or work or have any type of sound. However for my unit it has work amazingly for two particular needs. The first need is to of course ventilate a room with fresh cooler air from the outside which works amazingly. The other need when it is hot outside in the summer where an AC unit will do much better, I placed this in the kitchen which gets hot in the summer due to cooking and it works in two ways very well, the first way is that it airs out all the hot air in the kitchen which maintains the temperature to a stable lower temperature. It also has the ability of course to blow in air to cool off in the kitchen so that cooking can continue. There is of course a feature which has one fan blow in air and the other fan blow out air however these work varies depending on how hot it is. If it's too hot the feature won't work because of the overwhelming Heat. The cons that I find in this unit are the following. I do not like that the only color available when buying was white. This is a problem in the kitchen or anywhere because Grease, dirt, or any type of pollen or dust will show blatantly on the unit. Another thing that I dislike about this unit is the auto mode which is annoying and prevents it from working efficiently. For me this mode is useless and should have not been implemented. It is annoying to have to turn it off every single time you reconnect the fan to the power. Another thing that I dislike about this unit is the LEDs being on without having an option turn off the LEDs because they are bright red and if placed in a room where you sleep it will bother you in the dark. I do like the fact that it comes with a remote controller which makes it easier and more convenient to turn on and turn off the fans without coming in proximity. Another feature that I like that is Paramount is the fan speeds they are quite powerful even on the lowest setting. In particular my unit has no whining or any type of fan noise outside of the blowing of air in fact it is certainly quiet on the lowest setting however on the highest setting the noise is higher due to the power of the Wind coming through. So far I have had this unit for a couple months and it has been flawless and it fits most apartment windows I have not had any issues with this unit as of yet and for the price it is very well worth it. It is made out of plastic for the most part however it seems durable and for me I do not need the additional extension for my window I believe this could be plays vertically as well if needed but I do not require this and it seems that you can place two of these units vertically side by side if the window is large enough which could be a plus if such thing is needed. Overall your miles and experience may vary due to the variability of quality control however my unit seems to be a very good built unit and I would definitely buy again if needed.

This is a great little fan! I’m in Colorado, so it doesn’t get super hot. I love the option to have air in/air out. Easy to install myself. I’ll probably get one or two more. Pretty quiet and having a remote is very convenient. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

UPDATE May 2018: I've now had this fan for 3 and a 1/2 years and use it almost daily for 1 - 3 hours and it is still working great. I don't know what I do without it - it keeps me from having to use my A/C all the time to cool down my bedroom. Anyway, it is still working great so I still highly recommend this product. Really impressed with it. Best thing about it is how light it is - I can pick it up with one hand. UPDATE Feb 2017: I've had this for about 2 years now and I still love it and think it works great. I use this very often and have had no problems. The one thing I've noticed is that the temp gauge is not accurate to the interior of the room, but honestly it couldn't be since the gauge is part of the fan, so it is measuring right where the wind is and not the whole room. Would be a great feature for new ones to have a remote temp sensor! Anyway, for me this is not an issue since it's easy for me to look at my temp gauge and then just calculate - add 10 degrees or whatever. But I hardly ever use the temp auto off thing anyway since I just blast it for a while before bed to cool the room down and then shut it off. I use it all seasons except summer now because my place is so hot (heat is central to building) so I need to cool the room down when I get home. The fan will cool the room quickly - I can get it from 75 to 68 in about an hour usually, which is faster than my AC! Because it's so light I have also used it in the living room which is a huge open area with the dining room and kitchen and it works well in there too, even though it's a lot of space. I love this fan and would still highly recommend it. I'm buying another one for my mother today which is why I decided to come back and post an updated review. I will start with the caveat that I've only had this a very short time (a month-ish) and have only used it about 10 times so far. I will come back at the start of winter and update this review, after I've used it for a while. I know one of the complaints with the new version is that it breaks down quickly so we'll see about that. Also, I've only needed to use it for a couple of hours before I go to bed, then I turn it off, so I don't know how it is overnight. I have a ceiling fan so after this fan cools the room, I just use that overnight. So I really have a limited view for this review, but I'll tell you what I can. The pros: It's really, really light weight-wise, which I wasn't expecting. I live alone and am not strong, so this was good for me. It cooled the room very quickly and very well - down from 80 to low 70's in about an hour. I've only used the feature that blows air in with both fans. I don't really understand how blowing in on one fan right next to blowing out on another fan would make any difference - seems to me that just blowing in as much cool air from the outside as possible would work best so that's what I did. I had it on high with the temp on the lowest setting - the fans really blow hard so I liked that too. It didn't cool the room below 70 even though the temp outside was cooler than 70, but it made it totally comfortable each time I used it. I didn't find the noise a problem - sounded like my AC unit. I guess it;s not quiet but I like white noise anyway so if noise is an issue for you, you should check out the guy who posted a review with the sound clip to see if it's too much for you. I found it very easy to install (I never have the patience to look at directions and am horribly not handy nor mechanically inclined - actually I'm so mechanically challenged that I put this thing in the window upside down at first!). I just put it in the window and plugged it in, then pushed the buttons until it did what I wanted (i.e. turned it to the coldest setting 64 degrees and high fan blowing in). I like that it is shallow enough that I can put it my window with the screen still in so I dont' have to worry about bugs or birds, etc. But maybe this is true for all of them...The cons: You can't use it sideways so it will only fit in the big windows horizontally, like in the picture. Maybe this is an unfair con but I wish I could use it the other direction so I could have it in the small window now that I have my AC unit in the big window. I did try using it on a very warm (74) and sticky night and it did not do the trick. I didn't really expect it to but it didn't in case there are people looking to use this to replace an AC unit. But there are many nights I come home and my bedroom is 80 and it's nice out and I know I could just use the fan to cool it down but I can't because of the AC unit in the big window. It's not quiet but I didn't find it terribly loud, either. But as I said I like white noise so this doesn't bother me, but it might bother others. So far I love it. I think if it breaks down after not much usage then I would change my mind so I'll come back (if I remember...) and post another review after I've used it for a while.

This review is for customer service more so than the fan. When it arrived, new out of the box, it made a loud clicking noise as if something was obstructing the fan blade, but inside the motor housing. Rather than ship the unit back to the retailer and get a refund (like I should have done), I called Bionaire directly because there's a large STOP! leaflet included in the box, which says not to call the retailer but to call the manufacturer if anything goes wrong. I'm not sure that this is the right approach for customers. The first customer service rep essentially said, "the unit is DEFECTIVE, cut off the cord and DISPOSE of the unit”, and Bionaire would ship us "an UPGRADED" unit. Sounds like a good deal, right? Wrong. A couple of weeks later, I received a package that had not one but two fans in it. One was a Holmes small tower fan that I had not ordered and didn't want, and the other was a Holmes window fan, that, while similar to the fan we bought, costs half as much, doesn't have a remote control, and has a 3-year rather than a 5-year warranty. When I called Bionaire (or rather, “Jarden Consumer Solutions”) customer service again, they said that I'd agreed to accept the Holmes fans as suitable compensation as they did not have our unit in stock. I explained that I was told only that I was getting an "upgrade", and if the lack of a remote control had been mentioned I wouldn't have accepted the switch. At this point the rep became...combative, and from this point treated me like a liar. It is a valid point that the third-party retailer had my money, so Bionaire couldn't provide a refund, but absolutely wrong that I agreed with plan that they specified which DESTROYED the rightfully purchased and DEFECTIVE fan, and saddled me with two useless-to-me, underperforming Holmes fans. Their potentially unscrupulous policies (…tell the customer they are getting an upgrade, and mark your report as “customer agrees to receive two under-performing fans to get them out of the warehouse”…) leave me with no merchandise with which to get a legitimate refund or replacement, the burden or returning two useless Holmes fans, and the pleasure of checking in with them every two weeks to see if they happen to be stocking the model I bought. Or, in short, it leaves me with $70 of nothing but hot, windless hassle, as I’m pretty sure the second rep, the so-called, and no-last-name “Jared”, knew very well that they will NEVER stock this unit, and they will NEVER fulfill my purchase, and NEVER make right the instruction to DESTROY the first fan. (Now that I think on it, that was certainly there simply to ensure that I couldn’t both get a replacement fan from them and return the defective fan to the retailer. Good one.) So, in the future and as a matter of principle I will avoid products from the Jarden family of products (Holmes, Sunbeam, Oster, Rival, Health-o-meter, Bionaire, Patton, Magic Chef, VillaWare, Crock Pot, Food Saver, etc). I will also return defective products to the retailer and get an immediate refund and ignore the manufacturer’s advice.

This is a great fan. I had been using a Holmes fan in our bedroom Holmes Dual Blade Twin Window fan with One Touch Thermostat and decided to get a new fan for one of our bathrooms that does not have a ceiling exhaust fan, so that we can remove all of the steam and humidity from taking showers and baths. I decided to try this Bionaire and see how they compare. I ended up putting the Bionaire in our bedroom and the old Holmes in the bathroom, for a few reasons. This Bionaire has more power and sucks the hot air out of the room better. The motor must be stronger because I can tell that it doesn't struggle when wind is trying to blow inward. On the Holmes, if it is windy and air is trying to blow into the window from outside, it struggles and the fans slow down. On the Bionaire it basically keeps functioning as normal with no struggling. The Bionaire has 3 speeds, whereas the Holmes only has 2. The medium setting on the Bionaire almost seems as good as the high speed on the Holmes. The buttons on the Bionaire are better too. The Holmes button is sort of already pressed in and feels almost like it is broken... a sort of cheap feel. Bionair buttons are nice and durable feeling and easy to use. They click nicely when you push them, and you know you pushed them and they "took." The Holmes button sometimes needed pressed more than once and never felt like it pressed correctly. I like that this unit has the temperature display too so you know how hot or cold it is in the room and you can tell if it is working or not or which airflow direction is working better... If you set it at exchange and see the temp go up after a few minutes, you know that is not the setting you want, etc. My husband doesn't understand the concept of setting the fan to exhaust to suck out all of the hot air and pull the cool air from the air conditioning from downstairs. He thinks it should always be set to bring air in (so he can sit in front of the dammm fan and feel air and say it's cooler that way.) So, now with the temperature reading right there I can prove to him that bringing in HOT air from outside is not helping the situation and you need to remove the hot air from inside by setting it to exhaust. When he sees it go from 80-some degrees down to low 70's and 60's now, he believes me. Of course there are times when exchange will be better or it will be cool at night and bringing air in is fine, but for the most part in the heat of summer, during the day, you will want to set it to out, to exhaust the hot air to the outside. This fan does a great job of pulling the cool air from the rest of the house too, as long as we leave the bedroom door open. The remote on this one is a nice bonus too because if it starts raining during the night and pulling rain into the room, you don't have to get out of bed to switch the fan direction or otherwise change the settings as needed. I keep the remote right in our nightstand drawer beside the bed and never have to worry about it. If it gets too chilly or whatever the case is, I can just grab the remote and not have to get out of bed. I will see how well the Holmes does in the bathroom, but if it seems to not get rid of the humidity and steam so well as we get into hotter and more humid months, I will buy another one of these Bionaire fans. Overall it is great quality and great performance. Changing the settings is easy and straightforward - pick your speed and pick your airflow direction and that's all you have to do. On the Holmes, you have to press the same button a million times to cycle through all the settings when you want to change it or even to turn it off. It gets to be a pain in the rear after a while. You can also set this one for specific temps etc so it will shut off when your desired temp is reached and kick on again if it gets hotter or colder. Just a great unit all the way around.

Easy to set up, looks great! Nice and quiet for sleeping, even higher speeds are not irritating. Love the temperature feature. The two button lights i covered with tape as there is no way to shut them off and they are very bright at night. Superb fan otherwise! Received a very different remote...mine was a little black one.

Lo coloqué de manera vertical (ya que mi ventana así lo requiere) y funciona perfectamente, en las noches cuando el aire exterior es mas fresco si baja la temperatura entre 10°F y 15°F en una habitación de 16 m2, lo cual permite dormir muy cómodamente. El nivel de ruido es bajo (en comparación con mi ventilador de piso actual), es un ruido blanco que a nosotros nos ayuda a dormir y bloquea muchísimo los ruidos externos. No es un aire acondicionado, pero su sistema de inyección y extracción o doble inyección si enfría la habitación. Como tip: lo coloqué al muro de la habitación con un brazo para pantalla de tv y funciona a la perfección, solo lo tengo que desplazar con ese brazo para cerrar la ventana.

This fan is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it. I've purchased other window fans in the past and none compare. In fact, I will likely buy a second. Here's what you'll love: THERMOSTAT: This fan has a built in, programmable thermostat which I love. It can be set as cool as 60F. This means you can leave the fan running on a cool night and it will automatically shut itself off once it reaches your selected temperature and you won't end up waking up in the middle of the night freezing cold. The current room temp is shown in red LED lights on the display. Once you press the button to select your desired room temp, it will show your selection and after a few seconds flash back to the room temp which stays on and reflects the current room temp. The lights on the display showing the temp may or may not bother you, depending on how sensitive you are to lighting in your room at night while you try to sleep. Worst case, it's an easy to fix to cover it with something and it hasn't been an issue for me and I love a dark room for sleep. FAN SPEEDS: There are three fan speeds, low, medium and high. I keep mine on high just to maximize on air flow. It's a great breeze and strong enough fan to air out a large bedroom or medium sized living space. FAN OPTIONS: There are two small fans built into this product. An interesting bonus feature on this fan is that you can choose air in, air out, or air in AND out (exchange). The options basically change the direction of the fans to both spin to blow air in, both spin to suck air out, or one fan blows air in while the second fan sucks air out (to exchange the air in the room). Personally, I prefer the air in feature, especially if you're looking to cool off a room and it's cooler outside. DESIGN: This fan fits into my windows perfectly. What I like is that it has two plastic 'flaps' on top that grip the window and hold it in securely. Other window fans I've owned didn't have this, and without the flap, makes it much easier for the fan to fall out or be bumped out of place. This fan stays securely in the window. Equally awesome is that the fan has a built in accordion style slider that easily slides out and fills the open portion of the window. It has two lock buttons that lock the slider into place as well so it doesn't end up moving while securing the fan into the window. REMOTE: This fan comes with a remote control. This is handy for when you're laying in bed and want to adjust the temp, turn off or turn on the fan. You can control everything from the remote (as you could on the fan itself). QUIET: This fan is extremely quiet. A few times during the day I caught myself walking up to the fan to see if it was on because it was so quiet. Turns out, it was running on high and just super quiet. Still great airflow even with little noise. AIR FLOW: Great air flow. Strong breeze into the room and cools off our large master bedroom significantly without issue. These are strong little fans. TIP: The fan has a standard/average length cord so make sure the window you plan to place it in has a plug near by. If not, have a short extention cord handy to ensure it reaches the outlet. I purchased this fan based on its great amazon ratings which is also why I wanted to give back and write this lengthy detailed review. This review is my own and I didn't receive any perks or freebies for writing it. I'm extremely satisfied with this fan and will likely be buying another one for our house. You will not be disappointed with this fan. You will love it! Five stars!!

I have a south/west-facing apartment that gets pretty hot in the summer.. I have a portable air conditioner in the dining room that helps keep the living and kitchen areas cool, but my bedroom stays hot and stagnant, especially when there's no breeze. Which is frustrating when it's actually cooler outside than in. A friend of mine recommended getting a window fan, and after googling showed that this fan is the clear winner in most of the comparisons I read, I decided to give it a try. Sadly, it doesn't fit my slider window properly – I have older windows and there's a lip/handle on the slider window that means I can't install this fan as designed, but with a bit of angling, and some foamcore and tape to fill in the gaps, I got it secure and working. Within just an hour or so, my bedroom was cooler than my living room (which never happens). Even on the highest setting, the fan is pretty quiet. And even on the low and medium settings, there's good airflow. The controls are easy to use and understand. My only complaint about this unit (other than it not fitting in my window, which I won't take points off for), is that the unit I received looked like it had already been opened and returned. I could tell that the plastic bags inside the box had been opened and sloppily re-taped, the manual was crumpled, and one item wasn't even wrapped in plastic. I expected better from Amazon. I'm still giving 5 stars though, because the product itself is good. Editing this review to update that I've bought a second unit because I was so happy with the first one. In addition to not quite fitting in my windows, because of the style of window, I also had to remove my screens to get it to fit. To compensate, I bought some heavy duty outdoor-rated velcro, taped it around the edge of the unit, and used that to attach some mosquito netting. Works perfectly.

Muy bueno, refresca bien los cuartos. Lo volveris a comprar

Excelente producto muy buen flujo de aire y versátil lo único que no me gustó que el termostato está en Fahrenheit Y al parecer no se puede pasar a Celsius
