Product Description

Amazon.com Review
People who favor fans over air conditioners like to feel a room breathe or to feel outdoor breezes in the house. The Holmes HAPF622R Blizzard remote control power fan brings a little more of the outdoors in with its innovative breeze modes. In addition to the standard ON setting, the Holmes Blizzard offers two settings which switch speeds randomly to mimic the feeling of natural breezes. As for power, the Blizzard has a five-fin fan blade which moves more air per rotation than the more common four-fin blade. And the front grill can oscillate as well, which increases the width of the cone of air being moved.

The fan has a charcoal-gray, rounded casing that echoes the circle of the fan itself; the curved carrying handle arcs above for easy portability. The manual controls are another arc of light-gray buttons on the face of the fan. With the convenient remote control, however, those buttons might never even get used. Both the manual and the remote buttons use icons for the various commands: a circle for on/off, three wavy lines for the breeze functions, a clock for the timer, a fan for the speed setting, and a fan with two arrows for the front grill oscillation. There are three speeds, and the timer can be set to shut off at any half-hour increment up to 7-1/2 hours.

Always unplug fan before cleaning. Use a soft cloth moistened with a mild, nonabrasive soap solution. Do not use gasoline, paint thinner, or benzene as a cleaning solution; also do not allow water to drip on or enter fan housing. The remote control requires two AAA batteries (not included). The Holmes HAPF622R power fan measures 18 by 19 by 6 inches. Holmes provides a 3-year limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship under normal use conditions. --Garland Withers

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful portable fan, July 9, 2004

By	Jerry P. Danzig (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This is a nice lightweight fan that packs a lot of power -- and modern conveniences -- in a good-looking, compact, and portable package. Features include oscillating grill, simulated breeze mode, and an electronic timer, plus a handy remote to control the whole shebang without getting up from your chair. Highly recommended, even from someone who swears by the littlest Vornado (aka the Tiny Tornado!), another fine little fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fan!, June 3, 2004

By	P. taylor (Elkin, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this fan; it's just the right size and the handle on top is great for moving it around. It's very quiet on the low setting -- perfect for sleeping. I probably won't use the breeze setting-it slows the motor, then speeds it up--supposedly like a breeze--but some may like it.The remote is cool and so is the spinning grille--it really does spread out the air more when you set it to spin. I live in North Carolina with no air conditioning and I have eight fans, including a vornado (it is too noisy on the medium and high settings), and this Holmes Blizzard Fan is by far the best I've ever owned. It even has a timer, and I highly recommend this fan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very quiet, nice remote control feature., June 25, 2006

By	thebigE (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

Doesn't blow quite as much air as I thought it would, but it isn't bad considering how quiet it is. The remote works great, and the controls are all duplicated on the front, so if the remote breaks or gets lost, you can still control it. It's great to be able to turn it on for a certain time period and have it automatically switch off.
