Amazon.com Review
People who favor fans over air conditioners like to feel a house breathe. A good window fan is a real blessing to a fan person, and doubly so if that fan can be set to blow in two directions. Double the benefits yet again if that window fan has two fan blades, each of which can be set either in or out. The Holmes HAWF3095 window fan has those quadrupled benefits, and then some. There are two 3-speed fans in the unit, each of which can be set for air intake or exhaust, or for air exchange, when one blows in and one out. In addition, there's a programmable digital thermostat and timer, so the fan can shut off automatically when nights get too chilly. And of course there is a simple on/off mode, especially good with the air exchange configuration.
Air direction is set by using the sliding switches located above each fan blade. The mode button is used to turn the fan on and control the speed. The mode button also cycles through three automatic thermostat settings: Auto High, Medium, and Low. There are two additional temperature adjustment buttons to fine-tune the thermostat to a personal comfort level. In addition, a timer setting allows the fan to be programmed to turn on and off at one-hour increments over a period of as long as 16 hours. The HAWF3095 fits most windows, whether it be a casement, slider, or double-hung style. The fan can function either horizontally or vertically, and there are two 3-inch extenders that can slide on at either or both ends to help tailor the fan to most any window.
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 Holmes HAWF3095 window fan measures 25 by 13 by 5-1/2 inches. (For certain casement windows, a specifically designed bracket may be required; upon request, Holmes customer service supplies this bracket free of charge, along with installation instructions.) Holmes provides a five-year limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship under normal use conditions. --Garland Withers

The perfect bedroom fan!,
By Live Simple (Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holmes Window Fan w/ Accutemp Plus, HAWF3095-U (Kitchen)
Buy this fan if you want something unobtrusive that will easily fit in a window, and if you like the "Acu-Temp" feature. If you live in a climate where you sometimes want a little extra cooling but don't really need AC, its ideal, especially if space is at a premium.
It puts out a good solid breeze and its nice and quiet. It is still a fan of course so I won't say its silent. Another reviewer complained about airflow, and I will say its not a heavy duty blast like you get from a big fan... but... its not a big fan, is it. High on this fan is more like medium on a big heavy fan. I like a cool bedroom and this fan has plenty of air for me. In fact I only use 3 (high) to cool the room down intially, then sleep using 1 or 2 (low, med) except on the hottest days. We have a another honkin' big fan we can move wherever we need it for the rest of the house. We love this quiet more gentle fan in our bedroom. We replaced our old "Cool-Breeze" window fan with this one, and first off I was thrilled at how much easier it was to securely install it into the window. It is a really good design. If you choose to use them, the baffles on the sides allow the fan to fit across the whole width of the window. It was an unweildy job when I installed the old fan, but with this one it only took a minute to get it in and I didn't swear at all. The fan is nice and sleek so it easily fit into the window without interfering with the screen. Using the "Acutemp" thermostat feature, you don't have to get up and turn off the fan and/or get a blanket in the middle of the night (the old one was so loud it kept me up so I was awake anyway). You choose your airflow level and temperature at which you want the fan to turn off, so you go to bed when its still warm and you want that fan, but then it eventually cools down (at least here in the Pacific Northwest it does, thank the goddess) and the fan turns off. Likewise, you can set it to turn on when it gets above a certain temp in the room. Of course you can also just turn the fan on to low med or high (1, 2, or 3) without the automatic functionality. The one thing that wasn't apparent when I ordered it, is that the darker control panel area that appears gray in the picture is actually a grayish olive green. Its fairly neutral though, kind of a pleasant sage color. Not a problem for our bedroom but I suppose some people might not like it.

SNAP TO INSTALL, NICE CONTROLS, A BIT UNDERPOWERED,
By mhill "Matt Hill" (Massachusetts, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holmes Window Fan w/ Accutemp Plus, HAWF3095-U (Kitchen)
This Holmes fan is great for pulling in cool air from the outdoors when it's more comfortable outside than inside.
It's not very powerful. The high setting could be medium or even low on other fans I've used. But keep in mind the main point of a window fan is air exchange, not blowing you with a massive gust. Nevertheless, if you need to cool a large area, this Holmes fan may be too small. It should suffice for a typical bedroom. And it's relatively quiet. I like the LED thermometer, which stays on even when the fan is turned off. It seemed accurate comparing it to some other thermometers I have. It is really easy to install. I have a wide window at 32" but it was no trouble using the included extender panel. You don't have to remove the screen. I wouldn't use a window fan with a/c. That will drive up costs and reduce comfort. Similarly, don't use it when it is LESS comfortable outside than inside, as one reviewer did. I think of it mostly as a fan for the evening and nighttime.

Love it! It solved problem, and then some!,
By Morganism (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holmes Window Fan w/ Accutemp Plus, HAWF3095-U (Kitchen)
I live in SF so it's rarley HOT like it was in Fl.and therefore my demands arent as high as others' may be. But for keeping my room cool and fresh feeling, it is great! The best feature is that you can have the two fans running in different directions. One out and one in. That is the key to really changing the climate in a room. I have had other fans that were "reversible", which meant there was nothing stopping you from removing the fan from the window and flipping it around to change the input or output of air. That was nearly useless. This fan has a direction switch for each fan so you can adjust as needed just by flipping a switch. As for noise level, I'd say it improves the noise level by adding pleseant white-noise and therefore lessening the street noise considerably.
As someone else pointed out, this is not the kind of fan you need in very hot places to cool you quickly. A window fan is more appropriate to circulate and freshen air while lowering the temperature enough to be comfortable. This is the best of four that I have tried (can't recall what the others were, sorry...)
