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

In my garage, we need a fan over the summer. Any regular fan does the job but are insanely loud. This fan up to speed 4 is inaudible! You simply can't hear it! And it is still pushing good air because of the blade design. 5-7 is very quiet. Very very quiet. 8-12, max setting, is still 4 to 5 times quieter than a regular fan and moving a ton of air at this point. The key to silence is the DC motor. You don't need that little pod shape style, that's a gimmick! With this you get silence and a nice broad swathe of air. No weird noises, no clicking, just a very refined fan. I never knew such things were possible. Thank you Pelonis!

I try not to give many five star reviews but I couldn’t avoid that for this fan. I had no idea what I’ve been missing out on. This fan is game changing!! We can finally comfortably sleep in our 2nd floor bedroom when it’s 100 degrees outside. This fan feels like I have a personal air conditioning unit. If some freak accident happened and the fan got destroyed I would repurchase it immediately. Assembly was easy as all get out. GET THIS FAN!!!!

Powerful enough to keep a very large living room cold , I haven't needed my AC hardly at all this year. This is my second one , my first one is upstairs and has lasted for years despite non-stop use.

I bought the Pelonis 16" oscillating fan in July 2023, and it has proven to be a reliable and impressive purchase. Nearly two years later, it’s still going strong, with no need to replace the batteries in the remote—a testament to its durability.The fan has a premium fit and finish, especially when compared to typical $30–$40 fans found at big-box stores. While it’s not a luxury item, it looks sleek and well-crafted for what it is—a functional fan, not a decorative centerpiece.One of its standout features is how quiet it is on the first three speed settings, while still delivering enough airflow to create a noticeable cooling effect. At higher speeds, the noise increases significantly, but so does the air output, which is powerful and effective for larger spaces.My only minor complaint is a slight whirring noise from the oscillating mechanism at lower speeds. It’s not loud enough to be a dealbreaker, but I’ve noticed it enough to occasionally turn off the oscillation. Thankfully, the fan moves enough air even without oscillation, so this hasn’t been a major issue.Before buying, I compared this to the Rowenta VU 5670, an 18" fan that seemed excellent but was priced at $149 in 2023 (though cheaper now). The Rowenta’s higher cost, longer delivery time, and fewer speed settings led me to choose the Pelonis. I haven’t regretted it. The Pelonis offers fantastic value for the money, and I’m planning to purchase another soon due to its performance and longevity.Pros:Durable (still works perfectly after 2 years)Quiet on low speeds with good airflowPremium look for the priceLong-lasting remote batteryCons:Slight whirring noise when oscillating at low speedsHigher speeds can be noisyFor anyone looking for a reliable, well-designed fan at a reasonable price, the Pelonis 16" is a great choice.

Best Fan I’ve ever bought. It really is quite from #1 to #6 and from #7 to #12 you can hear it more, but that’s because of the higher speeds which is understandable. But it truly is a perfect fan. My 13 and 14 years old Pom’s really enjoy it. So Thank You to the Company and Employees for the Best Quit Fan I’ve Ever Owned. 🙂

I’ve had this fan for about a year and a half now running almost every night and it still works amazing! Great quality and has very strong airflow. It can click when the oscillating option is on but it’s not too distracting or loud.

I have two Honeywell QuietSet oscillating fans – which were kind of the undisputed champs for quiet fans. Eventually one of them started to hum after about 6 years of use and so wasn’t as quiet (still better than a normal fan, but louder than I wanted). Unfortunately, I guess they have been discontinued or something because I can only find them on Amazon at a whopping $180. So after reading a BILLION reviews, this seems to be the current quietest fan out there and I paint just shy of $80. So lets compare!I put my still properly functioning Honeywell fan and the Pelonis about 7 feet from my favorite chair making sure both were exactly the same height (the Pelonis is capable of a few more inches in height) and both pointing directly at me. For most of the Honeywell’s 5 speeds I could find an exact duplicate based upon how much wind I felt (shirt off… I was going for accuracy!). The Pelonis is capable of both a little higher wind speed and a little lower. At low speeds and equal wind power, the noise from both was slightly different, but ultimately equal in terms of how bothersome, or how much you can hear it over a quiet television (virtually silent). In the middle range, the Honeywell was the clear winner as you can hear the buffeting from the fan blades on the Pelonis. The overall loudness was similar, but the texture of the sound was much better on the Honeywell and blends into other ambient noise (like a TV) considerably better – the Pelonis was more “annoying” sounding. It’s still very good, but not as good. The sound from the Honeywell was more of halfway between brown and pink noise wash sound whereas the Pelonis sounded more like buffeting (like a motor type sound). At the top speed for the Honeywell, the annoyance of the noise was still in favor of the Honeywell, but it was not as drastic of a difference vs. the middle speeds.One advantage of the Pelonis is that the oscillating feature is available on the remove. And it does go a couple inches taller if you need to clear an obstruction like a couch. I found the 12 speeds utterly ridiculous and didn’t like having to hit the button so many times. The 5 speeds of the Honeywell are enough.The Pelonis fan is quiet heavy due to a weighted base. If you are older and maybe frail, then this one might be hard to move around. On the flip side, if you have kids that are completely out of control, the extra stability might be nice if they will be crashing into it constantly if you put it in a high traffic area. It’s certainly overkill with the weighted base IMO. Although the assembly instructions are fully complete, they are not laid out well. Not a problem for me, but if you are the type of person that struggles with assembly instructions, you will find them frustrating.I’m very sensitive to fan noise and I really dislike it. So for me this fan is a win. It’s a slight downgrade from the fan in replaced so I keep the one good Honeywell in the living room where it’s most important and put the Pelonis elsewhere.

We use this fan every day.
