Can anyone recommend a "silent" fan for sleeping?

welbeck

fans may not be good for health,leaving them on while sleeping.
a chiller unit might be better.
surely everyone sleeps with a window open in summer.
would be stuffy otherwise.
a little ambient noises off is quiet reassuring. some people cannot sleep in the depths of the countryside, as it is too quiet.

Welbeck, if you are in a groundfloor flat or a bungalow the likelyhood is that you can only open the window a tiny bit while keeping locked.

Are you okay?

Yes, thank you Fanny. Like you I was following to see what people came up with

My Probreeze is silent. Totally.

The Dyson fan is pretty quiet. It's also pretty expensive

It's not just the price of the unit - the filters are pretty pricey to change every year! I've got one for the bedroom and use it overnight. It's on quite low (2), just enough to keep the room cool, and I don't notice any noise.

I have a chiller unit, it’s not absolutely silent, but it’s a gentle background hum and very efficient. Pro breeze portable 10litre air cooler.

Do you have the fan, or the fan/heater combo?

The Dyson fan certainly splits opinion.
I’ve been umming and ahhing about it for ages, but the reviews confuse me.
I think that next year I might actually buy a portable AC gizmo and be done with

Absolutely agree about the Dyson - worth it though.

I’ve got a Probreeze,
It’s absolutely marvellous.
It’s very quiet, but not silent.
I’m not sure if such a thing exists

Following!
I know that a poster mentioned one on another thread…
