Honeywell HO-5500RE Review

The Honeywell HO-5500RE Oscillating Tower Fan is a sleek, stylish and highly functional appliance. It can be used around the house and, thanks to its slim build, can fit in corners and tight spaces with ease. We particularly like how many options and settings this appliance has, including three fan speeds (Low, Medium and High), three wind modes (Normal, Natural Breeze and Sleeping) and a 110 degree oscillation function.

The Honeywell HO-5500RE also has a 4 hour timer which allows for effective scheduling. It can be controlled with the on-board control panel or with the included remote control. In both cases, the controls are straightforward and easy to use. Note that the unit is also economical in the sense that it's a low power 40W rated appliance.
