The instructions were straightforward and in 10 minutes I had the pedestal of the fan screwed into the base and the fan head assembled. When it comes to keeping these units clean, all of them have removable grills that can be rinsed or wiped, allowing easy access to the blades to keep them dust-free. The Honeywell Double Blade, Pelonis 18″ 3-Speed Oscillating, alen breathesmart and Black+Decker 16″ make it even easier, with simple clasps that can be twisted to the side with your thumb for removal. The Comfort Zone, Lasko S16612, and Lasko Cyclone grills can be popped on and off, as they utilize plastic tabs to stay in place. The rest of the fans have at least one screw holding the grill onto the head of the fan.
The Honeywell Double Blade 16 is a standard pedestal fan with enough upgrades to make it a solid model and a solid value, too. With normal, constant breeze, and variable breeze modes, this three-speed, remote-controlled fan has plenty of options to find the one that’s right for the setting. A timer adds another extra touch of usability, and for those who appreciate powerful speeds on every setting, the Honeywell is sure to please.

If you can’t buy a fan fully put together, this is the next best thing. The pieces are lightweight besides the motor that’s in the fan head but even that piece is manageable.
Though it can’t point down, it can be angled nearly vertically to bounce air off the ceiling and blow it effectively around an entire room. It’s the only one with the cord coming out of the bottom of the stand, as well, rather than dangling off the base of the motor halfway up the stand. Though its sound is quieter than many others of similar power, the quality of noise this fan emits is, at every speed, rather similar to the whirring of a small airplane. It also lets out a chirping “beep” every time you plug it in or change a setting.
