I ordered this fan because I watched a video review of comparing this Levoit model to a similar Dreo model. I was seeking a really good fan that was also quiet. I was going to do a video review, but the audio part really didn't do this justice, because it is a very quiet fan on the lower settings. It has 9 settings with options for oscillating, timer and other features. Both the Levoit and Dreo are very quiet, very room cooling fans. I have both. Personally, I think the Dreo has just a tiny bit more quietness, but some people want to sleep with the sound of a fan. The Levoit has 5 blades, but there is no difference in the cooling effectiveness between 3 blades (Dreo) and this Levoit model. I am so impressed because I was able to discard my dinosaur Lasko fan that was loud and had a humongous base. This fan has a small heavy weight base and comes with an extension piece if you choose to keep it on the floor instead of a table. It is also easy to take apart and clean! It is perfect for any room and does an outstanding job of cooling the room temperature. If you buy one of these, you will never go back to Lasko fans, so spend the extra to get something nice. I would also like to add that the Levoit customer service is awesome. The first fan I received had noise that troubleshooting would not solve. I sent customer service a video and they sent me a new fan with a label to send the other one back. ( Always keep your packaging a few days on any appliance). Their response time and follow-up is truly impressive. I'm very happy with this purchase.

The yellow is my old one that originally came with my humidifier, the white is newer. The filters are thinner, but it shouldn’t be too hard to find a cheaper replacement for next time
