Product Description

Amazon.com Review

With its trim design and versatile programming, this Bionaire digital tower fan is a welcome alternative to bulky standard models. Designed to stand on the floor, the fan cools and circulates effectively, thanks to its high-performance centrifugal blades and a bi-directional louver that distributes air well with minimal turbulence. The control panel is streamlined and includes a digital thermostat, selectable oscillation, and three speeds. The fan's 16-hour timer is especially helpful--it can be programmed to turn the motor on or off in one-hour intervals. Bionaire also includes a remote control for added convenience. Some assembly is required. --Emily Bedard

Product Description

Bionaire BT200RCU Tower Fan and Air Circulator - Space-saving streamlined design, this floor-standing fan effectively circulates air in a room using a narrow vent with a bidirectional louvre for maximum comfort. Far more decorative than a standard tower fan, this can be used in waiting rooms and other areas where fresh, circulating air may not be readily available. 3 Selectable Speed settings

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy Holmes, August 19, 2004
This review is from: Holmes BT200RC-U Remote Control Dual Direction Digital Tower Fan (Kitchen)
These fans are overpriced, loud pieces of cheap plastic. I had it for one night and chose to sleep with it off rather than put up with the rattling and squeeking. The plastic is so cheap it feels like it's going to break while you put it together. Funny enough, these fans do well because they're more expensive than others - people assume they're the best because they're the most expensive. I highly recommend going for the $40 envirocare fan - it's solid, it's quiet, and it has an air filter built in.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor construction and quality, July 19, 2004

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Holmes BT200RC-U Remote Control Dual Direction Digital Tower Fan (Kitchen)
I purchased this fan from Amazon several months ago and it is already in the garbage. The assembly is very easy and only requires a few moments and a phillips screwdriver. Unfortunately the plastic is very flimsy and thin and does not inspire confidence in the overall quality. The fan operated very well initially and the remote control was intuitive and easy to operate. Within a few weeks, however, the fan was making high pitched squealing sounds (imagine an old fan belt on a cold winter morning). I tried all the different speeds and settings, turing off the oscillation, positioning the fan on different surfaces, etc. Nothing fixed the problem.

I've never considered myself a high-maintenance consumer, but this purchase was very disappointing. I'd recommend one of the other brands or models, though many of the oscillating tower fans seem to have this same complaint. I have had good luck with Holmes products in the past (although this model carries the Bionaire tag), but I'd like to prevent other customers from the trouble I experienced with this model. Hope this helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, June 27, 2004
This review is from: Holmes BT200RC-U Remote Control Dual Direction Digital Tower Fan (Kitchen)
Who would have thought of the technology innovations that could be applied to fans? This model requires some assembly - and you'll need to pay careful attention to the directions, which is a large folded page. Read the instructions, look carefully at the pieces, and the assembly will take less than five minutes. All you'll need is a screw driver.

The fan itself it a remarkable piece of technology, made all the more remarkable by the fact that it comes with a remote control at such a low price.

When you first operate it you'll think something's wrong because it will oscillate, stop and seem to shut down, then pick up again. This is normal, and after you get used to it you will discover that this behavior was designed to move air in the most efficient manner - both from an efficient use of electricity, and from an effective pattern for moving air and keeping you cool.

The on-fan and remote controls are easy to operate and give you a great deal of control over speed, oscillation, and even timing its turn-on time. Considering the price, performance and wealth of features this is one of the best bargains you'll find - and worth any price on a humid, hot Florida night when you are enjoying fresh air on your patio.
