Pardon the pun, but the Soleus Air FTY-25 is the coolest table fan I've ever owned. Unless you're really cramped for space, whisper operation, unmatched feature set, solid construction, interesting design and twenty dollar price point raise this fan well above a crowd of sameness.
On low speed it's near silent which makes it perfect for the night stand, creating a peaceful breeze across my bed . (Another reviewer noted a loud timer mechanism and Soleus may have rectified this. I have to put my ear right next to it, with the fan off, in order to hear it at all.)
High speed does a good job moving air, quietly at that - stand next to it and it'll cool you off fast. More suited to mild circulation in a large room at this and medium speeds, cooling off a larger room of folks is better left to larger table or floor and free-standing fans.
The neatest thing about the Soleus is the switch selectable spinning front grille which creates gentle fluctuating waves of air. A first showing to friends and family evokes a giddy response every time. Not as effective, or as abrupt, as a fan head swinging through a 140 degree arc, it nonetheless eliminates the static current one gets from a stationary fan.
The silent operation, the two hour timer, a unique soothing oscillation mode, the deco styling with a match-all finish, a reasonable footprint and mounting versatility make this the ultimate personal fan.
