Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for large-size rooms, this high-velocity floor fan makes it easy to stay cool when painting the bedroom a new color or when relaxing in front of the TV on a hot summer day. Choose from low, medium, or high speed settings. The unit's three 18-inch turbo fan blades and aerodynamic wind-tunnel design deliver a powerful stream of air, while its adjustable-tilt head pivots up to 90 degrees making it easy to direct air where it's needed most. Use the floor fan on its own as an air circulator all year long or in addition to an air-conditioning or heating system to help save energy and reduce utility costs. Other highlights include top-mounted controls, a removable grill for quick cleaning, and a convenient carrying handle for simple transport from room to room. The floor fan measures 11 by 20 by 20 inches and carries a five-year limited warranty.

Customer Reviews

Not a Vornado, but gets the job done4
This fan is neither as powerful nor as quiet as the Vornado fan it tries to imitate, but compared to some of the other fans on the market today, the Honeywell Mega Turbo is pretty darn good. It moves an impressive amount of air, is solidly constructed, and comes with a reassuring 5-year warranty.

UPDATE: I just discovered that this fan cannot be taken apart for cleaning. I would change the rating to two stars if I could.

Where have you BEEN all my life??5
I am ADDICTED to fans, I simply cannot stand sitting in a room with stagnant air and fell in love with this monster before it was even out of the box. It moves air like a jet engine, has made living in a large & somewhat airless house tolerable and the noise of the engine & blades does wonders to dampen the noise made by the delightful young lady who lives upstairs. Stereo sound coming through the floor?? Turn on the fan, drag it next to you and it all blends into the night. If I had any complaints about it the would be that the thing is so comparatively powerful that it needs a good cleaning every month because it sucks up dust like magnet, and has actually proven a bit too effective in moving air during chilly weather when I've been to baked to just point it upwards to simply circulate air & create a white noise background.

So in other words it does exactly what it's designed to do and I just need to vacuum more often but what the hey, I'm a guy, you know? I'd rather just clean a fan once a month that do house chores, there's valuable time saved right there. The cost is modest enough for anyone to really be able to afford it, and along with a single window AC has kept this house cool, comfortable and livable ever since I got it. I'll never buy another window/box fan ever again, the fan grilles come off easily for cleanings with something like a dish brush in the kitchen sink and I can sleep soundly even with whatever god forsaken music my upstairs neighbor has on repeat while she's doing whatever chicks do with music on repeat. Honestly, the same damn song over and over again for an hour ... you gotta wonder.

If you are looking for silent cooling options to maintain the tomb like quiet in your abode or workplace this might not be the thing for you, I'd recommend placing your feet in a bucket of ice instead, or maybe moving to Nome, Alaska & just leaving the window open. For anyone else this is a great fan, fabulous design and it is powerful enough so that you could attach it to an ironing board with a washtub to sit in and fly with it, just like on Scooby-Doo.
