Wifey won't sleep with the ceiling fan, so I have a tower fan about 3 ft from my side of the bed. She loves the noise it makes, but she won't admit it.

Yeah a box fan. Cost around 20 bucks. It's a must have if I want to go to bed sober.

Yep, slept with one growing up in Louisiana. Later on when I lived in downtown Austin I would often be woken by drunk idiots on the streets. Bought a fan and it completely drowned out the street noise. It was great. I still use one today.

Fan for sound. I hate moving air.


Same here I use a box fan that lays flat blowing into the carpet of the bedroom. Sound with NO wind.

When I travel I use my phone and the "Relax and Sleep" app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mizusoft.relaxandsleep&hl=en

It has fan sounds, rain, babbling brook, creek, Air conditioner, aquarium, camp fire, frogs, large or small clock, crickets, fountain, dripping water, etc, etc, etc

I use the ocean sound. It is the very calming sound of waves lapping on the beach - you hear a large wave as it crashes in and then runs back out and then a trickle of the remaining water going back into the ocean, just wave after wave until you're unconscious. You can also have multiple sounds at separate volume levels. I have tried the seagulls with the ocean but it doesn't work for me - maybe because seagulls are only out during day time.

Holmes Blizzard. It's loud as shite but don't worry about any noises outside your bed room keeping you awake.

As a long-time lurker, I feel compelled to say that this thread is one of the most telling of any thread I've seen on the OT.

I sleep with a fan every night, mainly because my wife likes it about 10 degrees warmer than I do. We split the difference and set the thermostat at 72-73.

I was thinking about getting one of their pedestal fans.

Yep. Ceiling fan on high and one of those skinny ones, on oscillate. AC on 68 tonight. Sometimes 67, sometimes 69. I might actually go bump it to 69. Kinda cold.

Ew. I have a travel fan just for staying in hotels

Ceiling fan on lowest setting.

Anything more and I wake up with my eyes, nose, and throat bone dry.


You get used to it. I've always slept with ceiling fan on high, but when I moved to my current place where my room is upstairs, it just wasn't cutting it. I added my floor fan, and I was stuffy for a couple weeks.. but now, it has no effect on me.

The Honeywell that was posted is good for travel depending on the kind of luggage space you have.

I wish I had it when I was in an AirBnb in someone's garage apartment in San Francisco where they don't have A/C. I almost died in there with no moving air.
