Considering putting it in a bedroom: does it have a fan that runs even when turned off, or is it completely silent?

When it is turned off it's completely silent. People complain about a buzzing. There is a SLIGHT buzz you can hear if the tv has no volume. Any volume drowns it out.

No, there is no fan that runs when off. I have this in my bedroom as well, and when on, I don't hear a thing. Also, not sure if this in relevant for you, but some people say there is an audible "buzz" sound that comes from the tv when it's on. I do not notice a buzz except for when I have the image retention scrolling bar feature on. It seems to buzz when there are large amounts of white on the screen. The TV itself is amazing.

It's completely silent when turned off. The tv is close to silent when on other than the buzzing.

I have it in the bedroom, and I haven't had an issue with buzzing or any noise. And no I don't think it has a fan but I don't know

I don't believe so. My new set only ran for 15 minutes before it failed. Waiting for replacement now but pretty sure it was silent when it first went off.

When the TV is turned off there is no fan noise coming from the TV. To my ears, it is completely silent. I have never heard the buzzing sound that some people refer to. Hope this helps.

When the TV it's off it is completely silent. However, as soon as the TV is working you can hear that "buzzing" sound just right out of the box. It is not extremely loud but did bother me.

I've had mine for about 6 months or so and it's quiet and seems to do the job well. I think the only time I hear it is when it is dead-quiet in the room. I have the 2-fan version.

Thanks for reading my review. The fan continues to run flawlessly almost every night in the master bedroom. It is exceptionally quiet also, even at high speed.Yes, it has a switch to reverse the airflow. I had never used it but just tried it. The remote works well too. Don't hesitate to ask any other questions.

No, just on and off. I would say compared to most fans it's basically just on low but moves air around a room nicely.

yes it does have a fan that is intermittent. It runs when under heavy load (when things are plugged in and drawing juice ). It is not disturbing to me and I use it inside the car. When everything is charged and not pulling heavy juice it cuts off--

No fan like noise, very quiet and if you shut the bedroom door I think you should be fine.

If you have a 2 story house, you will here it downstairs, but not to the extent that it would interrupt anything like TV, etc. The master bedroom is on the second floor, and the fan is in the 4th bedroom down the hall from us. We have left the fan on all night on low, without any disruption in sleep. We used to have an attic fan, and this is considerably quieter. Hope that helps.

Very quiet. We the fan set low, and have it going 24/7 in our living room and can hardly notice the sound.

Yes it has a fan. It is not totally silent but it isn't loud either. I use it in a bedroom at night so I can lower the thermostat on the furnace for the whole house and just use this heater to warm the bedroom. Doesn't keep us awake. Hope this helps.

It's practically silent if the fan is off; otherwise, it has a soft "fan" sound.

Yes , it has a fan. We have a 1,200 sq. ft. Home an it does fine. We do shut one bedroom door and our house has good insulation.

It is very quiet. I don't like any noise when I sleep and sometimes I put this unit on my nightstand and it doesn't bother me. When it is in our family room I don't even notice that it is on.

The fan does make noise - it's not a silent runner. We use it in the basement as well.

It does have an intermittent fan, it comes on once it gets hot. The fan isn't noisy at all

Mine has no fan, is extremely quiet and is really cool to the touch. I think older versions of this had a fan, but to me that's just something to break or collect dust.

Yes it does have a fan and no it is not that quiet. This thing is pretty powerful and I have only seen it clip once. That was because I was running it hard through a cabinet that was not powerful enough for it. It didn't hurt it though. I went and bought another cabinet and it works fine. In a room that is really quiet or room that is small yes it can be heard.

I wouldnt call it a 'quiet' fan. But neither is it loud. I would put it right in the middle. We can leave it on and not hear it in the bedroom attached to the bathroom if the door is closed, just a low hum, but easy to sleep through. I did notice that it got a little bit louder after a few months of installing it, but I may just need to clean it a little.
