Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the fan. Some mention it's very quiet, not really any louder than their AC unit when that kicks on, and great to use as white noise for sleeping.

Perfect breeze and white noise
4 Stars
Perfect breeze and white noise
I'm on my 3rd round of this fan. This last one withstood abuse for 6 years of daily use. It was actually still working, just making a clicking noise, so I tried to take it apart to clean it and basically destroyed it in the process. I ended up paying $20 more to get a new one at target only because I'm not a prime member and I needed a new fan today. Regardless of where I got it, the fact that Ive bought it 3x and paid $78 with tax should mean something. Not only does the fan blow really powerfully (but not obnoxiously so, which could be annoying while sleeping) but the different settings give you options for how much white noise you want, too. I personally really enjoy power cool, but in winter calm and relax are also really nice.Bummed out to give China more money, was hoping to fix the old fan, but at least I'll be cool while Xi plans to take over the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars UPDATED! Arrived damaged, but fixed
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2019
First reviewed on August 19th, 2019:  I purchased this Honeywell HYF290B tower fan for a hallway in my home.  I have window air conditioners in my exercise room and living room, and I wanted to disperse the air a little more evenly as the exercise room stays cold while the hallway is noticeably warmer.  I had been using a small box fan to blow air into the room to circulate cold air into the hallway, but it is very old, and I knew there had to be a better option somewhere on Amazon.  Tower fans caught my eye because they oscillate, or rotate back and forth.  This means it can alternate blowing air into my exercise room and down the hall, which should be great for circulation.  In practice, the fan is ineffective because it doesn't blow very hard, even on the highest setting.  The name of the fan is Quietset, and in that regard, it excels.  It has 8 speeds, sleep, whisper, and calm, all the way up to "Power Cool".  All of the fan modes are very quiet, but that's because they aren't blowing much air at all.  I can hold my hand two-and-a-half feet in front of the fan and not feel it blowing on the highest setting.  I moved the fan to the center of the hallway, away from the wall, to make sure it wasn't starved for air on the intake in the back, and it still didn't blow very much air.  I set it up to test it for a few days and realized the discrepancy between the exercise room temperature and the hallway temperature was greater with this tower fan than with my old mini-box fan.

I purchased this tall fan expecting a tower of air, and it simply doesn't provide it.

On the positive side, the fan seems to be well built.  It has a relatively small profile, and it is very quiet.  It includes a remote and 7 levels of power.  The light is dimmable, so it may be useful in a bedroom just to keep the air from getting stale at night in a room with no ceiling fan.  I can't recommend it for any other application, and I wish I had saved the box to send it back.  2/5 stars

UPDATE: June 30, 2020, I moved to a new home in November of 2019 and brought this fan with me.  When setting it up, I  noticed that the housing wasn’t secure, and one piece of the plastic was pushed in on the side (see updated photo).  I didn’t know if this had occurred during the move or prior to it.  I pushed it back together so that the sides were air tight and used the fan again.  This time, there was a solid stream of air coming out of the front of the fan, which now meets my performance expectations.  I have it 15 feet away in the living room and can feel a strong breeze on the highest setting, but it is still quiet enough that it is not annoying or distracting.   The best part is that it comes with a remote control, so I was able to program it into my Logitech Harmony 650 and 660 remotes (purchased on Amazon) so I can control it across the room. I am able to see the lights on top to know what speed setting it is on.  The oscillation works well.  Overall, I am supremely satisfied with the fan now and highly recommend it.  5/5 stars
