Holmes 12" Oscillating Table Fan 3-Speed Adjustable 15° Tilt Quiet

Fan assemblies easily. Works great oscillating or in stop position. No noise good for a bedroom circulating air. Well worth the money. Does not have a remote, but that's no issue. If your too lazy to stand up and push a button up or down or turn a dial off this fan isn't for you. Money wise just wonderful for price. Ahhhh nice breeze.

Be careful unpacking. There is the tiniest screw and nut just thrown in one of the plastic bags. I bought two fans and didn't know about the screw and nut on the first one and found them on the kitchen floor where we were assembling it. The nut was missing from the second package but found it in the box under a flap! They really should have packaged them better. Other than that I like the fans. They are stable and quiet and forceful. I bought them so I could clean them and I don't anticipate any problems with that issue. I put one in my bedroom and one in the kitchen but I had to switch them because one clicks trying to oscillate and kept me awake. If yours clicks I would consider it defective. I don't care about the one in the kitchen.

Awesome fan quite and easy assembly an disassemble for cleaning

It's a good Size of fan to cool larger areas. As always I have to point out the other features. 1> It's not as quiet as one might wish on a small fan on lowest speed. 2 > And the KNOB that rotates the speed and is the ON/OFF switch, is too smooth to turn it speeds lower or higher. Its on back right next to rotation knob. It uncomfortable to adjust. That's an important feature in my opinion. (There is a similar fan with 4 push buttons on base in the front thats easy to reach) *I saw it at staples when I returned a defective item before I ordered this product. I think it would have been much easier and safer to turn on/off and adjust speeds. I think it is a AMAZON BASICS brand may offer that fan. *Worth looking over before you decide. I was in a hurry to get relief and needed quick delivery! The other tiny issue but important is: a very tiny screw with nut that bolts through the grills at bottom to hold grill safely in place protecting people and pets from blades. Well i was unable to get screw into tiny hole so I could bolt it place. (BUT: its Part of it is MY new health problem) For now I used twist tie to secure grill. It's working until i can get my brother to help attach screw properly! It's got a nice long cord to reach the plug in. And a fuse in the head of plug! It's durable and strong. The head rotates and tilts nicely. Good features to have In a fan like this. Plus it has a wire piece that forms a handle on back, top of fan grill to be able to lift or adjust fan. A must have for any fan!

It says you can assemble this in10 minutes. That is a lie! It is easy to figure out how it goes together. But because of the cheap way it is made, fitting the cage that goes around the blades will probably take you an hour or two unless you have four hands. I have been a big "fan" of Homes products for years but apparently Holmes was acquired by Sunbeam. They are selling based on former reputation of the name. One reviewer mentioned the tiny nut and screw that look like they came from a pair of reading glasses, holding the blade cage halves together. The screw and nut are extremely easy to get lost as they go flying when you struggle with the cage, so put them far away in a safe place so they don't go flying as you try to assemble the halves of the cage. That's where your two hours will be spent unless you are a watchmaker with steady hands. It will not be easy; so have plenty of patience. Actually I like the new fan design layout but there is much plastic in it. Handle it carefully, especially the manual-snap horizontal angle adjustment because from prior experience with Holmes, either that or the oscillation knob internal assembly will be the first thing to break unless you avoid adjusting them often. I had to change my previous review because I discovered my 30-year old Holmes Fan, Model HAOF-1200 (made in China) is repairable. Do not throw your old fan away! There is a video on You Tube showing exactly how to disassemble and reassemble that exact previous model. In most cases it just needs gentle exercising of the tilt, speed adjustments and oscillating switch. They did redesign the speed control. This new version has a reverse (counter clockwise to unscrew) thread to remove fan blades from shaft for cleanng. The new model has reverse threat (clockwise to unscrew cap). I did finally lose the watchmaker's nut, (they should have included a spare part for that one!) but a small piece of cellophane tape will hold the tiny screw and cage around the blades in place permanently. I regard it as a "keeper" along with my old model; and it is much lighter weight and performs as well with 12" blades..

So I got this Van delivered on March 15th I didn't need to use it to the first week of June. When the weather got really hot, I used it 3 times that's it 3, and when I went to go use it the fourth time the motor was dead. There's nothing I could do about it because I only had until April 19th to bring it back. But I didn't need it until June, so my review is don't buy it because the mode was defective.I'm out the money I'm out of fan now.I have to go someplace else to get a fan and it's a shame I think you should have been replaced.Maybe it was defect in the product at the time but no sense in waste in my time trying to even do that.So my suggestion is don't buy this brand of fan.Because the motor just died within the fan three timesSo I got this Van delivered on March 15th I didn't need to use it to the first week of June.

Maybe it was a defect in the product at the time but no sense in wasting my time trying to even do that. So my suggestion is don't buy this brand of fan cause the motor just died then using the fan 3 times

The base could do with a little more weight (it feels like it could be easy to knock over). The knob to control the fan speed is a bit hard to turn because it's completely smooth (and to be fair, I'm also usually interacting with it while laying on my back or side in bed), but I was totally satisfied with this fan. Some assembly is required, but it was pretty straightforward. It's been a month or two since I bought it so I could be misremembering, but I don't think it even required a screwdriver or anything like that.

The fan was fairly easy to assemble and has been working well since I started using it. It's easy to adjust the angle, and it remains stable on a solid surface. It's just the right size for the bedroom and has good airflow.

Silencioso, práctico y eficiente

Great fan. Powerful but still has a soft feel to it. It has 3 speeds. I leave it on lowest speed, which can sill give a windchill. And so quiet I forget its even on. And it does oscilate. Like the total- black colour and chic looks.

Big output for a small fan. Cools me all day long.

Works great , good price .

Fan doesn’t keep a constant speed. Came with a dent on the facing. Terrible product
