Quiet stand fan
Can anyone recommend a good *quiet* stand fan? Maybe something with a wide range of speeds? I have one that has three speeds, but even the lowest speed makes a fairly loud noise. Mix of wind, whine, and oscillation. Causes my tinnitus to crank all the way to 11.

Looks like a decent fan, but I need a stand fan. I do plan on a trip to Costco this week, so I'll check there for options. I've seen those Dyson type fans with no visible blades, but I've always questioned how much air they can move. Maybe Costco will have a demo model.

Didn’t cost $130 used…. I bought it last year and I like it.

Whew. Quiet is pricey. Might be worth it, though. I can't run the one I have for more than 15 minutes because my ears really start screaming at me.

I hear these are very quiet; either standing, or sitting.

Was a believer in the generic three speeds fan on a stick but the tower fans have won me over. The tower fans are quieter and have features that the fan on a stick normally do t have.
Amazon is your friend. Buy a few and try them out. I have two Atomi fans. Can vouch for the quietness and they are middle of the road in price. |

I have the Dyson, it moves enough air for me, but it's a personal-use fan at best, it's not one of those things that will oscillate a good breeze across a big room.
It's also very quiet but not completely quiet. You'll hear the whooshing of the air. Don't know if that will still be a problem for you |
