We do not mind noise from fans...Do the three settings allow for 3 very different speeds? or no? Its to go into our bedroom

The fan is awesome for larger area, as the Deacon of my church this is why I purchased it and it has worked wonderfully and I was rather surprise that its not very loud at all and all three speed adjust very well according to the loudness which to me is very acceptable however I really don't know how it may sound in a close in area unless of course you have a rather large bedroom. I hope this will be of some help to you and Happy New Year and god luck.

Yes, it has three different speeds, but keep in mind that this is a commercial fan, and it is noisy. It is perfect for our garage as we live in FL and use the garage year-round for projects.

Yes the speed range from breezy to hurricane. I have the fan in my bedroom as well. Low speed is sufficient most of the time.

You are pretty accurate, I love these fans because they move LOTS of air and I have been running it 24/7 for four months now with no problems. The negatives, they are loud and as you said there is not a significant difference between speeds; there IS a difference, but not from a quiet whisper to full throttle.

I don't know the answer to that, it has several settings, I pick the one best for me. We do like the fans. Glad we got them.

It only has one official speed (900 RPM) and it's pretty quit. They say it's 11 db. I have no idea if that's accurate but it seems quiet enough. If your motherboard allows you to change the speed on 3 pin fans it can go slower and run quieter. You can also buy a fan controller and slow it down that way. I'm running two of them right now at about 640 through my motherboard control and they're almost silent. They still do the job of cooling my four SATA hard drives.

I have not used it indoors but the fans are not loud at all. The sound definitely drowns it out. I ham still very happy with it, we have used it several times.. No complaints

This unit has three speeds - the 1st you can't even hear. The 2nd you can tell it's in the room and the 3rd is a little loud which will require you to turn your TV up a bit.

There are 3 fans one in the front one in the back and one on top. I didn't hook up the top one. With just the front and rear one on in order to hear it I have to put my ear up to the box.

The fan is 3 speeds in both directions. I have to admit, though, that I never use the "intake" settings.

I suppose your sensitivity to noises would determine whether this fan would be considered quiet or not to you. I would call it moderately quiet on high speed and quite quiet on lower speeds. I keep it on medium speed and the small amount of noise it puts out is not at all disturbing and the fan is located in a bedroom. It is used only in the Summer to boost air conditioning. The unit is turned up-side-down so that it throws air up. it works perfectly well that way and still responds to the remote control as it should.

Not significantly. If you are looking for a quiet solution and are somewhat electrically savvy, try wiring two fans in series and ditch the speed controller. I found this configuration was much quieter (practically silent!) than using the fans on the low setting of the speed controller, and still moved a surprising amount of air. The speed controller is not a very "elegant" design, and causes the fans to emit a buzzing or humming noise at low speed.

This fan has 3 speed settings and a switch for reversing the air flow for summer /winter seasonal changes. I tend to use mostly the medium and high speed settings to assist air movement in the lofted ceilings of my home. Also the fan is very quiet when operating even on high speed.

Yes there is a chain on the side of the fan that allows you to select off plus 3 speeds. I installaded a "Lutron" fan switch on the wall that allows me to select on / off plus 3 speeds. Lutron Model # DVWFSQ-FH-WH

I tried it in a small room and it didn't do anything. I set up a couple of fans on either side of the room and I can definitely feel a difference. So, unless you can return it if you don't like it, I'd skip it and just use fans.

3 speeds. I've had the fans about a year, and I love them. Very quiet. One has a slight wobble on high, but other than that, they work fabulously on the back deck

Sorry, was on vacation. No this fan only has 5 forward speeds. To be honest while I like the fan for our application I find a regular home fan moves just as much air if you want a nicer looking one.

On the lowest Fan setting it's not too bad at all. On the highest, wow! We only turn it to the highest setting when we're asleep or not home, but we don't find that necessary very often. Traditionally, lowest setting works just fine for us.

There are 3 speeds - L, M, and H. The lower is very quiet and that's all I use in my bedroom. The medium is fairly quiet as well. High is a bit loud and not a setting I often use.I doubt that the sound would be an issue.
