Impulse buy at age 30: A Honeywell Tower Fan

I went to the shops to pick up some prescriptions (more signs of getting old) and came home with a $55 fan. It's called the "Fresh Breeze Tower Fan." Still in the box. Reading reviews now and most seem positive.


Features

• Air filter
• Digital temperature controls
• Automatic shut-off
• Remote control(!)
• Negative ion technology

Does it work?
Don't know. Will update you. Looks promising though.

Update: I don't know if the digital temperature readouts are accurate. Is it really 90 degrees in the house? Possibly! It is the 909. The sleep timer works, I think? Not really sure because I'm asleep! Who the hell knows if the ionic stuff is for real. I feel better knowing it's there though--placebo effect? It's a powerful fan though and I like the remote control. The flashlight on it doesn't work so well but that's what the Mini-Maglite is for. If you're looking for a fan, try Costco.
