So the hot weather stopped shortly after buying it. But on the few times I used it it worked really well and the fact you can adjust it without getting out of bed is a real bonus.
Love this fan in our living room. If def kept us cool in the winter. It is just as comfortable as our dyson which is in the bedroom. It looks nice too.
great product . Easy to operate either by remote or the fan itself. Enough power in it to cool a large room and the oscillation means it covers the whole room. Would recommend to anyone.

Bought it after the heat wave but still managed to use it a few times and was pleasantly surprised by the really cold air it generated. I feel well equipped for the next heat wave!
Bought it on spur of the moment during the very hot weather in July. Works well so good value for money, haven’t had to use sleep mode or timer as ye
All in all a nice fan but it is a little bit noisy when you use it in the bedroom and your trying to get to sleep. I expected it to be much quieter when new.
Bought in the recent heatwave and it’s ok but not as expected. Didn’t really cool me but it was what I could afford.
White noise on low helps me sleep better with it on than off. I had to put it on a chair to get the breeze on the bed, but when I did that it was cooling over the heatwave. It doesn’t take up much space.
I love this fan! Love that it has so many settings. My favourite is the time setting. It means I cam choose for it to go off when I doze off to sleep or set it to sleep mode. Good value for money.
Wished it was slightly taller because we had to mount it on a side table to get the full benefits in bed.
The fan had scratches all over when It was unpacked. It also makes some noise once on. The power is ok but the most annoying is the remote control which makes this awful ping noise whenever you use it.
This fan has proved to be very effective. Considering bought as replacement for unrepairable Dyson it has worked very well.
As a fan, it is quite effective. Perhaps not quite as effective as the ones that have propellors. But we are generally satisfied with it.
I’ve had a couple of these for a while. Bought a third one to take with me when I went to stay with my daughter, because of extreme summer weather.
We now have one in the lounge and two in the bedroom. We have the bedroom ones running all night and they haven’t skipped a beat!
I was very impressed with this much wanted bliss of cool air under the recent weather conditions, also the look and size, very substantial, for anyone feeling the heat, this is a real trea
Much better (and quieter) than the other tower fans we have.
Total life saver during the warm weather.
Slept with this on during the day without causing any migraines or stiff muscles from cold blasts on neck.
Product delivery and condition on arrival was great.
Fan works great for the 30c+ weather we’ve been having here in the UK. Its not too loud so easy to sleep with it on all night. I would say a few things though, i don’t like the sleep mode or nature mode. They basically just turn the fan off in intervals but when the speed cuts off, there is a little click and its quite distracting so i dont use these modes when i sleep. Theres also a horrible set of red lights on the top, even when the fan is plugged in but not in use, theres a perm red light on the top. At night, its very bright. But i just put a bucket hat over it when i sleep and its all good. Otherwise, works great and does the job!
This fan is fairly quiet when operating and it is very useful to have a remote control
All I had to do was construct the base which arrived in two halves and screw into the main part.
Unfortunately a piece of the base snapped when i was trying to put the two pieces together to get them aligned. The screws also appeared short so I found four slightly longer ones. Luckily a friend was with me as it was tricky trying to hold the main body of the fan and screw the base unit at the same time. All appears fine and it is lightweight to carry, is fairly quiet and works very well. Hopefully there wont be a problem with the base in the future. I would have given it five stars without the hassle with the base bit. Nice design.
Knowing you’re paying close to top of the pricing bracket for the ProBreeze, my expectations were set quite high.
The design is sleek and the two colours should make it fit well in most home/office settings.
You need to fix two parts together via plastic lugs and clips to form the base plate. I would say ours does not fit together very snuggly and this means its slightly uneven. That’s either going to bother you or pass you by dependent on your levels of OCDness! Other than that, assembly is easy.
The fan is nice and quiet in all modes and even the most powerful speed is not too obtrusive in my opinion. The reach of the generated breeze is probably about 7-8 metres before you struggle to notice a difference.
Sleep and Nature modes are good in general and the timer does exactly as you ask of it. The remote cannot be faulted either.
The one thing I was perhaps surprised by (though I don’t have much else to compare it with), is that the most powerful speed setting was a little underwhelming. For a 60w setup (one of the highest), I was expecting a bit more oomph.
All in all a good piece of kit. The aromatic oil tray is a nice added bonus
I bought one of these upright fans last year, also a white one in another make. I have my grandson the white one and have just ordered and received another pro breeze. I’m dialers and so the remote control is a must.
I can recommend this whole heartedly 🙂
It’s not as quiet as id like and I’ve struggled sleeping with it on but that’s more of a me issue I think. But it’s a fan! It’s cool in my room now! I love the timer BC it’s very versatile, as my partner pointed out it’s in binary basically lol with the way it’s got intervals that add together lol. I found using it too much has made my skin a bit dry and irritable but like I said, a me issue. The product is very much worth the money (I baught it on sale for 50). Don’t know much about fans so idk if it’s worth the full price tho
It works as described. It has made these hot days a bit more bearable. Suitable for small spaces and it looks great. Now, every now and then some of the functions will stop if operated by remote control. And sometimes, it’ll go back to work normally a few hours later. It’s like it has a mind of its own.
With the world currently turning into a Martian wasteland I felt that it was finally time to invest in something that prevented me from turning into a puddle of human goo. So far so good. It’s not quite air con – my car is definitely better on that front – but a cool breeze on a hot summer’s afternoon is definitely welcomed! let’s just say I’m not well suited to these excessive heats and so this fan is absolutely perfect to keep me from barbecuing.
A more helpful aspect – the three speeds are great. It’s frustrating that it always starts on medium speed regardless of what setting you had on previously but realistically can’t complain when it’s easy enough to change to the speed I actually wanted. I haven’t yet tried the sleep, nature or timing settings so cannot comment but I’m sure they’re great too.
Definitely the best money I spent… at least this week.
The fan itself is fine. I’ve really only used the full power mode as it’s been so hot and it’s worked well.
However the base is not great. I’ve not been able to assemble it properly, not all the screws will tighten properly. I’m not sure if this is a problem with the screw/hole alignment or the screw length. This means that the fan is a bit wobbly.
The remote control is no use to me at all as it isn’t illuminated so no use in a dark bedroom.
I’ve only used the timer function a couple of times and it worked OK – but again since I use it in a dark bedroom I can’t see which button is which and can’t select functions in the dark.

A great fan but it won’t change the air temperature. It will help to keep you cooler than a regular fan and it is quiet on its lowest speed setting
Got one from a bad batch where the timer/sleep functions didn’t work, but customer service was amazing and offered a replacement or refund right away.
Strongly recommend!
Very sleek looking. Very easy to use and love all the options and there is a handy little slot for the remote control
This fan is perfect for a medium sized room. Excellent value for money.
We bought two of these to keep the bedrooms cool over the past couple of months, and for a bit of white noise. They’ve been great with no problems at all. Then the heatwave hit over the past few days and I have been so happy that I bought these. WAY better than the AC unit we bought and actually allowed us to sleep through the night. Ready to buy a couple more rather than moving them throughout the house as needed! Amazing quality and value for the price.
Top brand fans for this weather. More importantly customer service has been super helpful
Bought this a few weeks ago and would never buy a waste or time fan again . This has been a godsend and identical to what what parents had in Queensland . Love the remote and blows cool air not recirculated air which has made all the difference. Would love another. Slept the other week with it on all night without issue around noise. Yes it makes noise but it’s fine and doesn’t disturb me while working or sleeping – a cracking product and worth the money. 🙂 dogs like it too and the cats. Not a crank review – if it was I would own two

I like this fan, fairly quiet and simple to use. Does a good job.
A reasonable fan for the money and very easy to put together, however a few niggles mainly in that the two base sections are poorly moulded and still have some gaps when fitted together. The four screws provided are tiny and only needed two turns each so there is not much holding the top and base together, such a shame as the top section seems to be of good manufacture. I have had better fans but for something that I will only use for a very short period of time each year it will suffice.

his item does every thing that it says on the box
and more, what a good product.

These are great fans. I’ve bought five now and they’re all going strong around my family’s houses.
Love it got some power to it can feel it right across the room although not happy if you go to the actual brands site you can pick this fan up a little cheaper and for the amazon price you can get a newer model.. learn from me
Despite some of the reviews I found the fan quiet and the fan powerful. I will be buying another one for the bedroom. Only downside is when you put the essential oils in there is not an strong smell. If you buy a couple of car vent air fresheners ( Febreze) they work very well.
They were bought as a replacement for circular fans that were very old. Since they arrived the weather has been such that I have not needed them. I have tried one but not in warm weather. It is not as powerful as the old fan. It is much neater less easy knock over.the movement of air is much lower so it feels less effective as I feel heat in my upper body more than my legs.I have not tried the features

Feels like a return item but good fan looking to get another one
Very pleased with this fan, reasonably quiet and very efficient on lowest setting. I haven’t tried the timer so can’t comment, but the remote is very neat and easy use and the buttons on the van are very straightforward to use if preferred.
simple to use and excellent item but assembly was hard. it should have been very easy just to screw in 4 screws connecting the bottom plate to the main unit, but they would not tighten! Eventually i looked at the bottom plate where the screws would enter and saw that the holes were not level at the point of entry! the moulding entry holes were not level and have raised edges. I had to shave of the ill fitting entrance to the holes with a stanley knife and then it took almost seconds to screw the plate on!
I think I bought this at the right time. A little bit noisy but does a great job
Got two of these and basically they do the job. One for our living room and one for my daughters room. For the price they are really good. They are effectively tower fans. The 3 settings are good and the remote control is really handy. Its keeping us cool on a decent budget tbh. Bravo
Circulation of aor is pretty good but don’t expect air conditioning temps as it blows air round, it does make a difference and cools the room down though also can add essential oils in a small tray to add a nice scent which is a cool little feature
Works really well, would recommend. Quiet enough to sleep on the middle setting
I’ve been sick of using fans in the humid British weather blowing around hot air. This works sooo great, the air is super cold and it has so many different modes and settings which makes it perfect for anyone. I’m a deep sleeper so I don’t notice if it’s loud or not. The remote works really well too. Overall very happy with this product and really good value for money
Works for places like London as it is considerable for days when temperature goes upto 15-19 degrees but you can’t count on it if it’s hotter than usual.
Installation was really straight forward, currentlynit runs very smoothly. No creaks or irritating sounds when trying to sleep. I’ll update that after a month’s use.
Fan automatically turns on at “Natural” settings and “Medium” speed.
The downside is that it has no silent mode when trying to sleep. The beep is like… TV volume at 25. So, loud. Not ideal when trying not to wake anyone else. Not the end of the world, either, but could be useful feedback for the next model.
Not a huge fan of “sleep mode” simply because it turns off way too quickly, even when starting in high speed. I would prefer more time, personally. It’s also noticably audible, so not ideal when sleeping – for me personally anyway.
SLEEP MODE: High: 30minutes fluctuation of high speed to medium speed to low speed back to high speed. After 30 minutes, Medium speed is activated: 30 mins fluctuation of medium speed to low speed to “off” back to low then medium, so on. After 30 mins, low speed… You get the idea. It’s intended for natural winds which is really considerate, but not quite right due to time and sound.
Overall, I currently recommend this product. Better than many others I’ve tried.
Review will be updated at a later date.

Definitely everything I was expecting. The different modes too are great because I love the natural mode at night to mimic the sound of the wind. The coolness of the fan if perfect and I haven’t needed to put a cold bowl of water in front yet. Just got to see how it copes in the extreme humidity and hot conditions when my room reaches +30oC because I think it’s only going to blow the humid air around instead of cool it. The only other thing I would say is that the fan isn’t as silent as I’d hoped, and I specifically tried to find a silent one. Don’t get me wrong it is quiet compared to others just not as much as I wanted. Generally pleased though
This is not a quite fan, I could sleep with it on. It’s good that it doesn’t take up a lot of room.
Updating on 17th June – today first time I had to put it on medium setting as up till now although fan on nearly every day since I bought it, often days or even weeks at a time as I am basically stuck in bed, the noise is no louder on medium than it is on low. I have it set up on a small cupboard just off end of bed so it sends its breeze over my bed so lights are above my head so don’t bother me during the night if I wake. It has not made any big difference to electricity costs – its 2p hr at current costs approx. on low. As someone else stated it’s like having white noise in room so wake at night and the sound just wafts you back to sleep, am usually struggling to fall back to sleep or even drift off in first place and I really notice the difference on the nights when actually do not have it on, so have actually used the timer so it’s on so I can fall asleep and then it will go off and not chill me during the night. Better than a sleeping tablet. Not as yet tried any of the other modes as happy with how I have used it so far.
Only had it 10 days but so far after having it on nearly 24hrs a day since it arrived, I am impressed.
It’s so quiet, much quieter than I expected. I do have it on one of those mats you put under washing machines (I put them under anything that stays in place and has a motor) so it helps ensure it stays stable and decreases the sound but even then, it’s still quiet – not silent but on low its barely a whisper and just increases slightly as you put it on the next two levels.
Now it is not the most powerful so if you plan to use it in a very, very large room it might not reach from one side to the other to keep you cool but you just have a normal standard UK home (ours is only 100 years old) it should be fine – mine is in use in my bedroom which is as big as so many of the houses sitting rooms built these past 30 years or so.
My first tower fan was a very expensive model and did last about 8 years then bought a cheaper one which although still works is so noisy it is unbearable to have on, especially during the night so was looking at one that had all the same options as previous two and this one ticked all the boxes as I use all the options a lot, just timer being more occasional. I was still expecting it to be fairly noisy so am very surprised and pleased.
I bought the insurance at the time of purchase and am glad I did as it certainly is a tower fan I hope to have for many years. Usually don’t bother but with prices shooting up who knows this might be even in a year. Price as well was mid-range which suits my pocket as can no longer afford the top of range for past few years.
This one to me at point of purchase seems as good as top of range but of course it’s how long it lasts and stays quiet that might show the difference in price but I hope not.
Will update how it’s doing – does it stay as quiet – in a few months.
We have a proper air conditioning with outside fan unit for the front of the house but the back room/office next to the kitchen gets rather hot during the summer so checked out a few options and selected this item
Very impressed with the cooling effect of this three speed fan.
Discrete enough to just place in a corner of a room and the remote control allows selection of all speeds and also oscillation control
This product actually exceeded my expectations, which was nice
Securing the base to the main unit to complete erection was easy to achieve
Whilst it will never compare to a fully installed air conditioning unit it’s certainly good enough to generate a cooling wind movement that’s reasonably pleasing
Very cheap for such a useful device… Highly recommended

Fan has a small foot print and works fairly well. It’s nowhere near as powerful as my old rotary fan which was bigger and noisier. The modes are just an annoyance as the constant starting and stopping wakes me up. The remote is useless apart from switching the thing on and off as you’ve no idea what you’re selecting especially in a bedroom at night. It’s good for around children and easy to store but just accept it for its basic functions and you’ll be happy.
Good fan and the sleep mode is fairly quiet and allows you to drift to sleep while keeping your room cooler. Had some issues with the oscillating function, but the supplier replaced this within a couple of days of reporting the issue, which was brillia
This is a perfectly adequate fan. The top speed could be a little more forceful, and the fact that it can’t ’tilt’ is annoying at times – it’s a tower so just blows along whatever plane it’s aimed at. But it works fine, the remote control is FANTASTIC – you can do mostly everything with it and it works very well – and it means I don’t have to get out of bed to turn it off at night.
Bad stuff: it DOES make an irritating BEEP whenever you change settings or turn it on/off, however, and frankly, I could do without that. Why do we even need a beep? What’s it for? I know when I’m turning it on and off, so why … ??? Ridiculous. It’s also loud enough to disturb other people who might be sleeping in the same room or in a room next door when used late in the evening. Hence 4-stars instead of 5. REMOVE THE BEEP. Thank you.

This fan is an ideal size and works great, my previous fan was too noisy and my partner complained if I put it on at night as it kept him awake, but he doesnt notice this one at all.
my only complaint would be that when you turn it on it goes straight on to setting 2 which is a bit annoying in the middle of the night if you are switching on from the remote in the dark as it means if you just want it on the 1st low setting you have to find the setting button and go through the stages to get to the 1st stage, surely it would have made more sense to start on 1. I am sure as I get more used to the hand set it will become automatic for me to scroll through the settings, but that is the only reason I havent given this great device 5 stars
Great fan. Very powerful and durable. We use it 365 nights of the year.
It has two red lights that glow at night which can’t be turned off, like evil eyes from a horror film in the dark!
Previous version the top was flat so could be covered up, maybe a bit of insulating tape would help if it was an issue. Many functions which we don’t use. The beep when switching on and off is very loud!
As a fan it’s excellent, my wife suffers from extreme heat during the night so it really helps give her a nights sleep. To get it to cover over the bed we have it on a tiny stool. Overall a fantastic product at a great price.

As a fan it’s excellent, my wife suffers from extreme heat during the night so it really helps give her a nights sleep. To get it to cover over the bed we have it on a tiny stool. Overall a fantastic product at a great price.
Would be 5 stars but I found the screws awkward to put in (only have 2 in at present until I can get someone to hold it for me). Otherwise really pleased with it. Looks good, discreet, quite, quick delivery and does excellent job. The remote is an added bonus. Highly recommend.
This has been amazing through having a fever and having it on constantly to have it on osc mode to keep the heat down. The timer is great for night time yoy can set it for upto 7.5 hours and then it turns off without a sound and the remote control is great for if the fan is not in reach. The only problems are the sleep mode is annoying as you can feel it going on and off which distrupts sleep better to have it on osc and the manual says if the fan is turned off you can set the timer for it to turn on after the time but i havent been able to but other than that its great the low setting is great for night but high setting cools you instantly
I hunted around at lots of different fans and settled on this one based on reviews and price. I’m really pleased with my purchase. It only arrived yesterday, but it’s been in constant use since – I was able to sleep through it on the low setting as I found that less disruptive than the sleep setting which seems to be an intermittent on/off, and enjoyed the breeze on my bed through the night. It’s more effective than a traditional pedestal fan which is what I was using before and much quieter than that. Yes it’s not air con but it’s pretty good and in my view good value for money. The nice thing about the 30 inch version is that it’s really easy to move round the house to whichever room you are in as it’s not big or heavy and has a carry handle to move it.
Does what it should, we are happy enough, it’s not the most powerful on full setting (I have a desk fan that is more powerful) but it does what it should. The slot for the remote in the back is only good for carrying the fan, no good for keeping remote, just falls out (have another tower model that has a remote slot that works). All said and done it does the job ok, not too noisy, and doesn’t light up like a Christmas tree so shouldn’t disturb sleep.
This item was purposely bought for a bedroom. Not to tall,. We have a taller one in the larger sitting room , but powerful enough to cool the room in minutes. I’ve not used the timer as the sleep mode is perfect. It will switch of after an hour and I’m usually asleep. I like the natural mode too. Gives a nice gentle breeze that rises and falls just like the real thing
Very happy with this fam.
I like the fact that this fan actually cools the room, and therefore me! Having a remote control is good for me as I struggle to get out of my chair; and the timer function is great when I fall asleep in said chair. The sleep mode and nature mode appear to be the same which is why I’ve given 4 stars and I find it disturbs me more than just in normal mode on the low setting. The fact that it is easily carried is a boon. This fan is ‘cool’!
I need a fan as I just cannot sleep when the weather is warm…. this is a good fan and does its job of distributing cooler air. The remote control is handy and a deffo plus… however this is not as quiet as I would have thought. Even in sleep mode. It sort of ‘blows’ in increments so it’s quiet followed by a “whirr….” I am not a light sleeper and once I am asleep little wakes me . This however made it difficult to fall asleep…I will persevere as I may get used to it and it become white noise however currently a bit disappointing
Although the fan does what it says quite well with not a lot of noise on either of the three speeds, the one thing that lets it down is the essential oils drawer. I tried this on all three speeds with their recommended 2-3 drops I got nothing so I put in about twelve drops and still got nothing. I would have thought for this to work the drawer must have holes in it for air to pass through taking the odour of the oils with it but alas no holes in the drawer. Is this a gimmick? Beats me but if you buy one don’t bother wasting your money on oils, you’d get more aroma in the room having one of these gadgets that spray scents out periodically.
The actual plastic that the fan is made of seems quite cheap and it does not fit together very well. There are four screws to fasten the fan to the base but base but they do not work well. One screw tightened up properly, two tightened up a little bit and the fourth would not tighten at all and just fell back out of the hole. Having said that the actual function of the fan seems fine. I guess the real test will be when we have some very warm weather but the initial test on a fairly warm day was very positive. I have not rated the sleep mode or timer function as I have not tried these yet.
So relieved to find a fan on the market which does exactly what it says on the tin, so to speak! Compact for storage. Looks sleek. Easy to store. Easy to piece together (took less than 10 mins from opening packaging). Keeps us cool with up to a 5m reach and not noisy at all. Quite therapeutic actually. There is an aromatherapy drawer which we haven’t used yet but love the idea of putting lavender in their at some point to aid sleep. I’ve bought 3 so our teenage boys each have one in their room too! Top tip: when it comes to screwing on the base, put the tower upside down in the polystyrene protective base as this holds it nicely in place (my sons erected theirs on their own and found this made it much easier).
I bought this fan primarily for use in the bedroom to assist with cooling during the warm nights in May this year. The fan has three different speeds, oscillate functions, sleep timer and some other modes which I have not explored yet. We had an issue with the first fan when on oscillate there was an annoying creak sound. I got in touch directly with the supplier who confirmed that should not be happening (I sent in an email with a video of the creak) and they confirmed it must have been a faulty unit and immediately sent out a replacement unit. The new unit has experienced no such issues. I chose this fan as I wanted to upgrade from the rattling fan items I have had through the years. I have been very pleased with the purchase. The remote control is a nice touch and the unit is stable and does look out of place at all around the house. I would recommend the fan not only for the product but also the customer service. Yes there was an issue but it was dealt with very promptly by the supplier.
I bought this as a trial for my 11 year old daughters bedroom, the feedback from her was very easy to use, quiet, especially sleep mode, remote a little small as it slips down between her bed so she can’t find it and not quite tall enough to blow on her fully when its on the floor (not really a product fault) but overall very happy with it.
It was a trial and due to the feedback I will be purchasing two more of the taller model.
From me: Many thanks, a great product that now allows my daughter to sleep in a comfortable environment without being bothered by noisy fans and the like
I looked around for awhile trying to find a quiet fan, as I use a microphone. I didnt want the fan to cause feedback on the microphone and make it unbearable for everyone I spoke to.
Ok now I’ll talk about the sound. Dont buy this if you expect complete silence or next to it. You will not get the experience with a traditional fan. However, I will say if the fan is put on the low setting it actually is pretty quiet.
The product is easy to assemble as the box only contains 5 items:
– The Fan Tower
– 2 seperate parts for the tower base
– Bag of screws
– Instructions
Fortunately I had a screw driver on hand to fix the parts togethor. THEY DO NOT PROVIDE A SCREW DRIVER. Just keep that in mind before buying.
All around though. This is a great purchase and in my opinion one of the best purchases you could buy during the summer.
(If you plan to use it and you use a standalone mic, this is good choice. The elongated design of this fan puts out a more precise breeze so you can keep yourself cool whilst not interfering with the mic.)
My daughter had to move out of her family home to protect them from COVID 19 as she is a nurse . The local uni kindly gave up student rooms to NHS workers during the pandemic.
However in the heat wave the room was stifling and she lost sleep as she is working nights, sleeping days. She had lost 3 sleeps so in desperation I looked for a cooler. A fan she had just didn’t cool at all. This tower was cold straight away the power so great she could have flown to work on it! Remote control all sleep modes etc very easy and quiet. She loves it. It arrived in hours really and easy to assemble the base to the unit. Easy instructions too. I e mailed to thank the staff who messaged back straight away with a lovely ‘on behalf of their company’ thank you for my daughter doing what she is doing in the NHS. I was very touched.
I would highly recommend this fantastic company and their gem of a tower cooler fan. Thank you.

My partner an I started a small business recently selling sweets (candy Dig it). we had a room split into 2 so we had more storage for the sweets. With the warm weather the past 2 weeks we decided we need something to keep the room cool in summer, we were looking at all sorts of devices and decided to get this to see if it’s any good.
My goodness! This thing is excellent! Put it on in the room and I was so cold in not even a minute and this was on its lowest setting!
It is also British made! So you know it will be excellent quality.
The absolute stillness of night feels weird at times. I am just too used to an overhead fan, its associated hum, and the air flowing around me. Having changed homes recently, it was unnerving to have such a deafening silence while sleeping.
Enter, a fan. After thinking of a few table fans, I decided to get this tower fan. The primary thing being: a tower fan has a smaller footprint than a table fan and can snuggle in a corner neatly. This fan looked good. You can keep it on the floor, but because i use it when I am sleeping, I keep it on top of a chest of drawers, so that the air is actually circulating above me. In fact, that’s the reason I got the 30 inch one, since it’s ok to keep on the floor, and it’s not too tall that it can’t stand up on a table. The 40-inch one would have been too tall to put on a table really. A few reviewers mentioned beeping while using remote – true, but not an issue for me. Also about the LED’s – again, true, but I like having that light which serves as a bit of a night-lamp. If anything, I prefer the red shade that’s there. I am yet to use the aroma thing, but that sounds pretty neat. Honestly, I don’t really use the fancy sleep mode, or timer and all of that. I just switch on the fan, keep it on high, and go to sleep. For that, the fan is perfectly servicable.
You should remember that this fan doesn’t have the “coverage” of an overhead fan, in terms of the force of the air, and the sweep of area which the air can cover, which is to be expected. If anything, it has lesser range in terms of the arc of the air than a round floor-fan, those 16 inch ones. But the air this fan doesn’t have the violence of a round table fan, hence, the experience is more pleasing.
One issue that I do have with the fan is that the tower itself stands on a base. There is some amount of wobble after tightening the screws. The fan doesn’t feel like it will topple over, but the wobbling is annoying nonetheless.
Overall the fan stays, and happy with the purchase.
The first thing i noticed ( & liked) about this fan was how easy it is to assemble (only needed to slot the 2 half’s of the Base together then screw onto the fan base)& how light & easy it is to manoeuvre from one room to another.Also when used in my bedroom ( roughly measures 10ft by 14ft) within 10 minutes the whole room was nice &cool even though it was a particularly warm & humid night ( had the fan on the high setting ). Only negative really is when used in my living room ( somewhat larger 18ft by 13ft size )i needed to place the fan within 6ft of my position to feel the full benifit of the cool air omitted. At around 10 cheaper than similar products in the high street stores didn’t seem too pricey though.
It’s very powerful yet really quiet. It has a wide range oscillation. The air does feel cooler not like it’s just being pushed around.
It’s sturdy and looks well built. It’s easy to operate.
You just have to attach the base to it when you get it out the box which is relatively painless and you have to do that with most fans anyway.
Would definitely recommend

I’ve been overall very happy with the fan so far, having only had it three days. My constructive suggestions for future models would include adjustable vents that can go up and down and allow greater air flow direction control. When I lived in a much warmer climate, the fan I had there had those and I would not have batted an eyelid and paid more for one here that did as it was one of my favourite features.
As the world is sadly only getting warmer, I would also encourage the manufacturers to consider an even stronger engine. I’ve owned a 92W fan in the past (look up Gold Line turbo fans) and for an extreme heatwave, I do worry 60W won’t cut it.
I haven’t quite been able to figure out sleep mode just yet, but in fairness to the product, I haven’t given it much time either so like I said, happy to amend once I’ve caught up and figured out everything is as it should be.
All in all, visually appealing and gets the job done. My one last note would involve maybe switching to assembly videos from the old school instruction book. I struggled with one of the illustrations and it was thanks to a YouTube video by some random user who had a similar issue that I was able to get it right in the end.
I love everything about this probreeze cooler. I have always used an ordinary fan before when that stopped working I thought I would treat myself to something less intrusive, I’m so glad I did it was easy to put the base on it just clips together the screw holes lined up nicely. Within minutes It was up and running it’s so much more powerful than an ordinary fan it helps me sleep much better it’s not noisy for me my old one was more noisier than the pro breeze and didn’t do as good a job as the pro breeze. This little gem is on all night For me it’s the best thing to happen since sliced bread. The remote is so simple 5 buttons clearly titled just press your desired setting and away you go. I haven’t used the timer yet don’t know as I will as I get so hot maybe in the winter I will try it. It oscillates smoothly. I would recommend probreeze fans to friends and relatives or anyone who asked me. I love it don’t know how iv lived without it. I’m very very happy with this item.
Bought this fan Jan 2019 after suffering sweltering nights June 2018 with little sleep. Couldn’t buy a fan then as they were out of stock and prices rocketed! Did loads of research and settled on this one. Arrived in 2 days. Easy to assemble- just 4 screws. Easy to operate- instructions are still unopened! Nature and Sleep settings power up and down in waves and are an annoying waste of time. Constant Low, medium or High settings are all you need. It oscillates. Remote works if you are lazy. Has a timer setting too. Tried it at night and found Medium setting blows enough cool air around my bedroom and it is quiet enough to sleep through- about the loudness of a tree rustling outside in the wind. Will save High for daytime. Money well spent-I won’t dread hot nights now- looking forward to summer!
Atlast! I live alone and dislike the silence at night, so I use a fan, for my comfort, but also for the distraction from the silence. I have found the Probreeze fan a revolution! It is virtually silent and the flow of air is gentle – although I can change the settings many ways! The timer is great, so once I am asleep, the fan goes off without waking me with a big “click”. I would recommend this fan. It has multiple features, the remote control works perfectly and is a real aid to easy, comfortable living.
This is amazing! It creates a good flow of air which feels more accurately distributed than a conventional circular blade fan. Cylindrical fan seems to “cool” the air. No idea how. Clever piece of equipment. Love all the remote control functions and the on/off choice of oscillation. When off and pointed towards the body while lay flat on my bed, from 4 to 5 feet away, the breeze (setting 1 of 3 speeds) reaches my upper and lower torso. A lot of thought has gone into the overall design and I bet it has more power than “the bladeless fan” if you know the one I refer to!! It would be interesting to hear some “honest” comparisons as I feel sure there is no chance such a thing can do more than this little marvel. The Pro Breeze PB-F03 ticks all the boxes. Wasn’t able to get another here as it was immediately out of stock but was prepared to pay more from another merchant elsewhere for the same one for another room. Guests will love it as it’s so quiet and so it’s easy to sleep with breeze power settings 1 and 2 the third speed setting is very powerful and so of course this makes a sound similar in level to a hotel room air conditioner but certainly no louder and on the low settings merely a whisper. You won’t be disappointed. Enjoy some cooler nights!
We haven’t had the fan long but in this horrible heatwave it has been nothing short of a wonder, it cools down our bedroom so we can actually get some sleep. It isn’t silent, it couldn’t be but the sound is not too intrusive and the benefits of all that lovely cold air far outweigh the sound of the fan. Very pleased with our purchase, it has some nice features and they all work
3.5
UPDATE 3.5 revised to full 4 as oscillation angle has improved!
The packing the fan arrived in is easy to remove. You have to screw on the base of the fan but that is quite common. Easily achieved by one person. The remote comes with batteries all ready in so you only need to pull out the plastic that’s stopping the batteries failing before use.
It is early days but the fan works well and is not too loud. I found it is quiet enough to watch the TV with only one step up on the TV’s volume. It is also great that it has a remote.
My two beefs are, the oscillation degree is not as wide as I was expecting but some people might prefer that. The other thing is, it doesn’t retain the settings I have applied once turned off. I have a couple of other fans that do retain the settings so this is really annoying. Ok, it’s only three button presses to get back to where it was but when you go from hot to cold as easily as I do, it means turning it off and on a lot so three gets quickly multiplied.
Overall, a useful fan that is a fairly reasonable price (I bought it on offer for 39.99 & I wouldn’t have paid more for it).
I will revisit my rating in a year’s time.
I would have given this product five stars, buts it’s a bit noisy and the blue lights are pretty bright. The different modes don’t really make much of a difference. I have to say though the cooling is superb, it definitely keeps everything cold during the summer and keeps the temperature low…
Have tried many fans across the price ranges and always been disappointed but with the hot weather decided to try this one. So glad I did, very easy to assemble, stylish to look at, easy to use and certainly does the job. Like the option of different types of air flow, timer etc. It is brilliant and very good value for money. I would heartily recommend this produc
incredible, it’s quiet enough to not be a nuisance and powerful enough to keep me cool through the hea
