Honeywell HY-048BP Fresh Breeze Tower Fan
- Attractive design
- Takes little floor space
- Good airflow
- Pricier than most
- Some dislike the "breeze" setting
The Honeywell HY-048BP Fresh Breeze Tower Fan is more attractively designed than most fans, and users say it provides a strong breeze without making too much noise. It includes several convenience features, such as a timer function, LCD display, programmable thermostat, remote control and a washable air filter. It has three speeds and a "breeze" setting, though users posting reviews to Amazon.com say this extra setting isn't practical because the noise level fluctuates dramatically while it's in use. If you'd rather spend less, the Lasko 1825 18-Inch Adjustable Cyclone (*Est. $30) is a pedestal fan that receives similarly good reviews from owners. It's not as stylish or feature-rich, but it costs about half as much.
Real Simple magazine editors recommend the Honeywell HY-048BP Fresh Breeze Tower Fan in a recent roundup, though we're not sure how the fans were evaluated. More helpful are the almost 150 reviews of this fan at Amazon.com, where the Honeywell receives an impressively high average rating.
