Fits on a nightstand and has (3) speeds. You and your wife can each have one on the nightstand next to you for $30 total. I have had my for 3 years and I wash it in the sink when it gets dusty!
I have one on my office desk and at top speed it's a little beast ![]() Fan Link ![]()

The louder the better for me. I want it to drown out all noise. Moving more air is also a plus with our central AC. |

I empathize with you...once I experienced a fan to sleep, I never looked back. I have a box fan purchased from Kmart in 1975 or 1976...It has a distinctive hum from the engine that is unmistakable and creates the white noise I desire.
I can appreciate the desire for this white noise and the older electronic engines have a distinct hum... good luck...

Hmmm. Probably where it started with me. As a young child, I really couldn't go to sleep with my little Radio Shack transister radio under my pillow. Which my mom always heard, even when too low for me. Mom's, man.

No, I don't have tinnitus. I am hard of hearing in both ears due to recurring ear infections as a kid and had tubes put in about 15 years ago. I've had my ears tested dozens of times.

4 years later, we bought our house in the hills. It was so dead quiet that it took me more than 4 months before I was able to sleep through the night. |

I’m with you. I hate being hot. ****ing cannot stand it. Currently my bedroom is 66 and that’s about right. I’d like another degree but my wife will dig a trench and declare war for that degree.
Anyway, as a kid my parents kept the house in the 75 range. So I dug around and got a fan and rigged up to be like 6” from my face so I could sleep. And it was an old 80s fan so you know that damn thing was loud. Went to college and gained control over the thermostat and made that thing the refrigerator it needs to be and slept better. Still had the fan for the noise. Got shacked up with the now wife and she caught me on the fan so it went away because the cold isn’t going anywhere. I got used to no noise still can’t sleep in the hot. My position is that you need to lower the thermostat and not have. Fan. Temperature matters far more than noise IMO. Even my wife who hates the cold has come around and can’t sleep if it’s hot. I know it’s Arizona but suck it up. You chose to live there. Crank that shit down and sleep like humans were intended. |
