How to choose
Remote control and timer first
A remote lets you change speed and mode without walking to the fan, and a timer shuts the fan off after a set time. Four picks include a remote: HOLMES, Uthfy, BLACK+DECKER and COMFORT ZONE. Three of them have a timer: HOLMES and BLACK+DECKER shut off after up to 7.5 hours, and Uthfy runs 0.5 to 7.5 hours. The Lasko pick uses manual controls, so check the controls before buying if a remote matters to you.
Oscillation, height and tilt
Oscillation swings the fan head from side to side so air moves across a wider area instead of one spot. The HOLMES swings 80 degrees, while the BLACK+DECKER and COMFORT ZONE swing 90 degrees. Adjustable height and a tilt head let you aim the air up, down or across the room: the HOLMES adjusts from 37 inches to 44 inches, and the COMFORT ZONE adjusts from 41 inches to 47-3/8 inches.
Noise, size and weight
Noise is given in decibels, and a lower figure means a quieter fan. The Uthfy is 42 dB, the COMFORT ZONE is 56.7 dB, the HOLMES is 58 dB, and the BLACK+DECKER is 67 dB. Weight matters if you move the fan between rooms: the HOLMES weighs 6.4 lb, the COMFORT ZONE weighs 6 lb, the Lasko weighs 8.1 lb, and the BLACK+DECKER weighs 12 lb.
