PELONIS 16" Oscillating Pedestal Stand Up Fan | Adjustable Height | Ultra Quiet DC Motor | Remote Control | 12 Speed | 12-Hour Timer | High Energy Efficiency | for Bedroom Home Office Use | White

I can't remember all the details from the original product description, but this fan is absolutely fantastic. It comes with 12 different speed settings, runs super quietly, and actually moves a ton of air. It oscillates smoothly, has a built-in timer, and best of all—the display control lights shut off automatically after about a minute. That means you get complete, pitch-black darkness along with a peaceful, cool breeze for sleep. If you're looking for a powerful, ultra-quiet fan that won't keep you up with annoying bright lights, this is it. Easily the best fan I've ever owned!

A bit of backstory, I've spent the last month looking for a new bedroom fan to replace the ten year old junk fan we had. I've bought about 10 different fans ranging in price from $30-75 from Walmart, Amazon, Sam's Club and Home Depot. Tried 3 different Lasko 5 blade DC motor fans from Sam's too. Every single one had badly balanced blades and mediocre stability. The AC motor fans weren't much more efficient than our old junker. The old 16" fan used 20-60w between the 1-3 settings. I took a chance on this Pelonis based on the reviews and the manual. The base is heavy and stable, the motor is quiet and as efficient as comparable DC motor fans, the features all seem to work well, and it's super quiet. Using my power meters, this fan pushes an impressive amount of air under 10W and tops out at roughly 37W at max power. Half of the power range is under 10W and moves a great deal of air. It's impressive how quiet everything is and how nicely balanced the blades were. Even the packaging was better on this unit vs everything else. The assembly wasn't too bad, the fit between the main post and the motor unit was a tad snug. Working the fan cage ring on took a few minutes too, but overall I'd say it was quite easy. The only negative I can see is the price and the 1 year warranty, but I feel that I got my money's worth if this lasts a few years. Either way, the power savings are significant. Old fan at "2" ~40w running almost year round = ~$40/yr in electricity Old fan at "3" ~55w running almost year round = ~$56/yr in electricity New fan at "6" ~10w running almost year round = ~$10/yr in electricity - similar airflow to "2" New fan at "8" ~15w running almost year round = ~$15/yr in electricity - similar airflow to "3"

Compared this 12 speed fan to a 20 year old Pelonis AC pedestal fan with 3 speeds. AC low speed = DC speed 5. AC high = DC 11. AC middle is DC 7-8. So the DC fan has 4 speeds that are lower and mostly inaudible. The DC fan has one higher speed, 12, that is louder BUT at 11 is about the same noise as the AC on high. The oscillating feature on the DC version is remote controlled instead of a pull-up switch. Oscillation is a fixed rate independent of fan speed. The front guard is now easily clipped on, older models had the dreaded fiddly, teeny screw to fight with. The design is attractive. The base is heavy enough to keep the fan stable but not too heavy. Improvements needed? Beeper mute, up AND DOWN speed selection instead of only up. These are very minor though. Well engineered and great value when you consider what you are getting for the price. Yes I would buy again, perhaps in 20 years like the first one (AC) lasted. Biggest reason to buy this fan is for low speed. quiet performance. If you only use fans on high just buy a cheaper AC model.

Overall a pretty nice fan. It's very quiet. - Fan blade sound level: The lower speeds (1-3) are extremely quiet, virtually inaudible a few feet away. Medium speeds (5-7) are a bit louder, but not bad. Much of this is strictly wind noise which I think is inherent with all blade type fans. Higher speeds (8-10) are definitely loud. Rotation noise level: Noise from the rotation motor/mechanism is audible when the fan is at it's 3 lowest settings. At higher speeds the fan and wind noise covers up the rotation noise. Assembly: Assembly is simple except for the fan cage/cover, which is really difficult to assemble, and by far, the product's biggest negative point. It's very difficult and frustrating to get the two cage halves aligned while getting the plastic ring that holds them together in place. Took me close to 45 minutes to get this done. I had an older version of this type of fan (different brand) that used 5 rotating metal clips permanently attached to the front half that latched onto the rear half. That model took only a few minutes to assemble. Note that this difficulty is a big negative since cleaning the fan blades requires removing the cage/cover. When I need to clean it, I might try using something like small binder clips and/or nylon ties to hold the halves together. Or try using the cover from our old fan. - Remote Control: Layout is fine and works over a decent distance. I tested out to around 20', but beyond around 15' it needs to be within +- 45 degrees of the face of the fan's control panel. - Speeds: (1) 12 speeds is more than adequate, however the speed change from 3 to 4 is way too large of a jump. (2) As others have pointed out, must go through all the speeds to lower by one (e.g. from speed 2 to 1 means going thru 3-10 to get to 1). This is really only a minor annoyance. IMO, it's preferable than having 10 buttons on the remote.

I am very satisfied with the performance and appearance of this Pelonis DC fan, which I have had for just a few days. When buying the fan, I had some question about the durability of a DC motor design. That question can only be resolved with time. Otherwise, the fan is unusually quiet and efficient, quite impressive. I have no complaints about the control device, but any design will not satisfy everyone (see one star complaints). I have also noticed that some of the one star reviews seem to indicate a misunderstanding of the installation procedures. For one example, the knob for the fan blades must be removed by turning it clockwise (not counterclockwise as one might first expect). I confess that I tried at first to remove the knob by turning it counterclockwise, as in the removal of a screwtop jar. But this is a turning fan and requires a reverse screw type.

quiet fan, easy assembly, cools quickly, 12 speeds and remote, adjustable, good quality for money

I have purchased many stand up fans over the years as I have a big family! I was hesitant at first to purchase this fan as it was a bit more expensive than others I have bought at my local Costco, Sam’s Club, Walmart or Target however, I did and I am very happy. Here are the Pros and Cons. *Here Are The Pros: This fan is very easy to assemble and I have really bad arthritis & fibromyalgia and I was able to assemble it with no problem. It took 5-10 minutes at tops. I really like the base as it was heavy duty and not going to crack or cause the fan to wobble or fall over. This was a big plus as I have purchased other fans where the base was flimsy or eventually cracked, causing the fan to fall to the side rendering it useless. The fan speeds are a great option and all seem to work well. From the lowest speed to the highest speed, I was pleased with all levels of air. This fan is for a 12x 15 living room and it was very strong and did the job. The noise reduction feature was also a big plus. *Here Is The Cons: The snap to hold the fan together at the base of the fan is plastic and I would have preferred it to be metal. Also, with such a beautiful fan and all the bells and whistle‘s that it offers, I would have liked a nice slick black remote for this fan. It came with a bright white plain, cheap looking remote. *Overall: With that being said... I still gave this fan (5)*****STARS! It is a heavy duty great fan🤗 UPDATE: Many have stated in their reviews that the “Remote Control” needs to be right in front of the fan in order to work! I found this to be the case as well. It needs to be directly in front of the fan within a few feet away. It will not work from a far distance or behind. I still will stick with my 5*****’s as it is a great fan! Just needs those couple miner tweaks in its manufacturing of this nice fan🤗

I bought this fan in 2022 and have used it every night since then. It runs on 10-11 of 12 speeds for 8-9 hours a day. That is conservatively - 12,000 hours of run time. That is serious longevity! It's still amazingly quiet, still running strong, no slow starts, perfect performance. I wish I had invented this fan! Whomever did deserves to be very wealthy! Great job!

Lo compré por las características de bajo ruido y en verdad que es excelente

I was surprised it came better than I thought. Wasn’t sure how it would come as some reviews has stated is cheap and breaks. The quality isn’t as good as I’d expect due to the price being so high. It is mainly plastic but it does have lots of air flow and it’s quiet enough. I don’t regret the purchase, over priced but works as intended.

Lo tengo desde hace aproximadamente un año y me ha funcionado muy bien. El peso me parece equilibrado .. no es demasiado pesado, pero tampoco se siente frágil o muy ligero. La instalación fue sencilla y el diseño se ve bien. En cuanto al ruido, es bastante silencioso hasta la velocidad 6 o 7. Después de eso sí empieza a escucharse un poco más, pero el sonido sigue siendo ligero y no me parece molesto. El control remoto es muy práctico, porque puedo cambiar la velocidad, activar o desactivar la oscilación y ajustarlo sin tener que levantarme. En general, me parece un ventilador cómodo, silencioso y práctico para uso diario.

I bought this fan for my wife after our old one broke. This was way more expensive than any other fan I purchased, but it has totally been worth it. It was very easy to assemble, even for a dummy like me. We've had it almost a year and my wife still tells me how much she loves it. There are 12 speeds I think, and it is very quiet, and very powerful. I like the fact that you can set a timer on it where it will shut off after so many hours, that way you don't burn out the motor. I like the remote with it, it works well, and feels comfortable in your hand. They also sell this fan in black, I didn't realize that until after I purchased it or I would have bought a black one. I will probably give this one to one of my kids and purchase a black one this summer.

Tengo poco tiempo con él por lo que no se que pase al año o mas. Por el momento todo muy bien. Bonito y silencioso (suficiente para dormir)
