Best Quiet Desk Fans

The Rowenta Turbo is a powerful and quiet desk fan that will keep you nice and cool both at home and/or in the office. This small device is pretty easy to use. It has 4 different speed settings and a manual dial on the front. It also features a 12-inch head with a horizontal oscillating feature that allows this room fan to cool down a bigger area.

We also really like that this fan is fitted with 5 light and conveniently-shaped blades that ensure relatively quiet operation. Even with the Turbo Boost mode, the noise level won't be more than 55 dB.

Speaking of which, the Turbo mode creates a powerful airflow of 1695 CFM, which makes this fan perfect for any room up to 250 sq.ft. You can easily move this quiet fan around since it has a built-in handle for easy transport. It also features a wide stable base without being too big or bulky. Do note, however, that this fan works from an AC, so there will have to be a free socket near you workspace or wherever you decide to place it.

Some people complain that the assembly process is a bit tricky because there are no clear instructions provided. But, honestly, it is no rocket science, so you should be able to figure it out.

In conclusion, this ultra quiet desk fan from Rowenta is one of the most effective 12-inch oscillating fans. It can cool down a decent area without being too loud.

If we had to describe the Ozeri Desk and Table Fan in just a few words, we would go with “convenience and great performance”. This noiseless fan comes with numerous features that make the control of the device a piece of cake for practically every user. It comes with three 10-inch blades. The head with horizontal and vertical oscillating feature ensures fast cold air distribution around any room. There are 4 speed settings to choose from but do keep in mind that the fan produces quite a bit of noise when set to the highest one.

The built-in timer will allow you to choose between 1 and 4 hours. You can turn it on in the evening and you won't have to worry about forgetting to turn it off before going to bed. But, since it doesn't produce too much noise, you can use this quiet desk fan as you sleep.

The set includes a remote control that allows you to adjust the room fan from a distance. This makes the Ozeri Fan a perfect choice for home use. Since it has a sleek space-saving design, the fan can easily fit your nightstand, coffee table, or dresser and you will be able to control it without getting off the couch or bed.

So, if you need a small yet efficient fan for any bedroom, the Ozeri Desk and table Fan is one of the best quiet desk fans you can find. Thanks to the rotating head, it will cool down the room much faster. Plus, you can easily adjust it with the remote control.

The Hurricane 736549 is a pretty basic table fan with a simplistic design that offers you everything you need from a fan like that. The unit is easy to assemble and you likely won’t have any complications with controls as well. All the necessary buttons are located on the front part.

This tabletop unit has a 12-inch diameter and features 3 blades that deliver a good airflow of 989 CFM. After all, it isn't called Hurricane for nothing. For small and medium-sized rooms, the fan will be more than enough.

Like many of its counterparts, this device has a horizontal oscillating feature. It can rotate 90 degrees or you can lock it in a non-oscillating position. This model also comes with a tilting head.

What we really like is that the unit has a very stable base. Thus, you can adjust the head the way you like and the fan will stand securely without clinking or shaking.

The only con of this device is that it is completed in a light body. Hence, you can easily notice dust on it. However, this problem can be easily fixed with a damp cloth in a matter of seconds.

So, if you look for a silent desk fan with a decent airflow that also won’t cost you an arm and a leg, we recommend the Hurricane 736549. It is powerful enough to distribute cold air in just about any medium-sized room.

There's no arguing the fact that the OPOLAR F201 is one of the smallest fans on the market. That said, it isn't just the size that makes this model such an interesting choice. For starters, you will be presented with a couple of power options. The rechargeable 2200 mAh battery will be able to deliver between 3 and 13 hours of operation, depending on the speed mode and the use of lights. Speaking of which, a built-in internal LED light and a side flashlight are probably the biggest reason behind the model's commercial success as you'd be hard-pressed to find this kind of setup elsewhere.

As you would imagine, the lights will prove to be immensely useful for all kinds of purposes and in a number of different scenarios, from camping and hiking to backpacking and fishing. Of course, considering the minuscule dimensions and the 7.8 ounces of weight, this handheld portable small personal fan will fit inside any bag.

But, no matter how much you enjoy spending time outside, you'll always have to go back home and visit your place of occupation from time to time. That is where the second power option comes in. Using a USB port with a cable that is included in the package, you will be able to power the fan via a number of devices, from a laptop to a tablet.

All things considered, we don't know for sure if OPOLAR F201 is the most powerful USB fan on the market but it is certainly one of the most interesting and unique options that will absolutely improve the quality of your next camping trip or the upcoming backpacking vacation through Europe.

The only thing you should remember is that this desk fan work from the mains, so better place it somewhere not far from the socket.

The model comes with an adjustable head, so you can turn the airflow directly to you. It has 2 speed settings, which, unfortunately, makes it less versatile than most of its rivals. Still, it has a decent enough airflow to cool you down. Furthermore, it is able to do so without going above 30 dB.
