I've had other office fans that were either too noisy or too powerful. This fan provides just the right amount of air movement and is very quiet.

nice office fan

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
The fan does a great job taking the edge off of the afternoon sun. I don't think the fan is as quiet as is advertised (my last fan was much quieter than this one), but it is certainly not too noisy for an office environment. My last fan didn't oscillate, and I like the fact that this one does.

to order more for my children as well. It is
petite, unobstrusive and quiet, but with such great performance.

We placed this fan on top our entertainment center between various picture frames. It cools our entire living room quickly. With only one AC vent in an open space with sunlight windows - it was always the hottest room in the house. No longer! This little powerhouse of a fan did the trick without adding an eyesore in our common living space.

Help for Hot Flashes!
By Emma the Newf from Wayne, NJ on 5/23/2008
Pros:

Countertop, Desktop, Small Rooms, Under desk
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
The office heating and cooling system isn't comfortable for a large number of our employees. They are always hot. I placed a number of MiniMax Towers in strategic spots throughout their work areas (i.e. under desks to cool feet, behind on countertops, on desks). Everyone is happier, comfortable, and more productive. A particularly desirable feature is the design which prevents paperwork from flying off the desk when the fan is on.

Reviews and Ratings - Fans & Air Conditioners - MiniMax™ Tower Fan By Hoot Up the Holler
The best small fan I have ever purchased
By Hoot Up the Holler from Bridgeport, WV on 3/7/2008
Pros:
Adjustable, Compact Design, Powerful
Cons:
Can be noisy at low speed
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I have long sought a small fan for use in my bedroom, one that moves enough air but at the same time has small footprint. This fan has fit the bill very well. On the highest speed it really pushes a lot of air, but unlike many other fans where low speed is useless, the low speed on this fan still moves the air noticeably. And there are three speeds.
Another great feature is that the settings you have in place when you turn it off are also the same when you turn it back on; you don't ave to reset the speed, oscillation, etc.
Only one small peeve is that it can be a little noisy on low with oscillation. Also, I would have been willing to pay a little more for remote control like the full-size fan Brookstone sells (which I also own, and it is fabulous).

Reviews and Ratings - Fans & Air Conditioners - MiniMax™ Tower Fan By Jeff Gregory
Powerful, Compact, Excellent Product
By Jeff Gregory from Chapel Hill, NC on 10/22/2007
Pros:
Compact Design, Durable, Lightweight, Powerful, Quiet, Stable Base
Best Uses:
Small Rooms, Travel
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I now own three of these: one for my office, one for my bedroom, and one for a second home and/or travel. They are powerful enough to really stir the air, but not too noisy. I like a bit of hum in the background when I sleep, and the fan provides that without being obtrusive. The closer you put it, the cooler it gets, but it moves the air in the room regardless of how much you can actually feel it. Compact, nice design, subtle footprint. One hint: the oscillating function lights up a pretty bright blue light, which can be a little bright in the dark. My Solution: any sticker will do.

Reviews and Ratings - Fans & Air Conditioners - MiniMax™ Tower Fan By Book Maven
Lighthouse
By Book Maven from Amherst, MA on 8/4/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Easily Understood Instructions, Easy Installation, Simple Interface
Cons:
Oscillate LED Superbright, Overpriced
Best Uses:
Dry Climates, Humid Climates, Poor Air Quality, Warm Climates
Describe Yourself:
Handyman
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
The LED for the Oscillate function is unbelievably bright! It can get distracting when you are sleeping. Also it is kind of noisy -- it is a lot noisier than when the fan was brand new like the other reviewer stated.
This fan is kind of overpriced. For this price, it should have an air ionizer built in or something, but it does not! My dad bought this for me and I wish he hadn't spent so money. I would've been happy with a $10 standard circular shaped fan but if you need a fan with a very small footprint and are willing to pay the extra cash, this is the fan to get.

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
The fan blows a big volume of air. However, the fan started getting noisy within a month. Using the oscillating motion will make the noise worse.

Review for iDesign™ Tower Stereo System for iPod®
Product reviews and comments for iDesign™ Tower Stereo System for iPod® - Replace a room full of equipment with one amazing tower system. By placing multi-angled speakers in a scientifically tuned cabinet, our iDesign™ Tower System for iPod is able to disperse the sound of your music throughout the entire room. From Bach to Beck, you’ll experience full, deep bass, crisp, clear highs, and warm middle tones like you’ve never before heard with your iPod. Simplify your listening experience. Just place your iPod in the tower system’s dock to enjoy your music (and charge your iPod while it plays). No complicated amps, pre-amps, or wires. Just a simple backlit on/volume knob and a remote that controls your iPod from across the room. There’s a reason we made it tall. By elevating the speakers, sound reaches your ears more easily and also has greater opportunity to reflect off walls, ceilings and floors, adding to the brilliance and warmth of your listening experience. The iDesign Tower is 40 inches tall, with two full-range stereo speakers and a subwoofer (which is positioned low because that’s how bass likes to travel). If you want a rich-sounding stereo for iPod, that also looks great in any room, order your iDesign Tower System from Brookstone today.
