I recently saw Dymax and other China brand, the model is look like Daz, with the fan on the side. The noise level is 37dB and 39dB respectively. It is very noise compare to my Air conditioner 21dB. Not sure if there is 21dB fan out there

There are 2 types of noise in a cooling fan. The motor noise and the wind noise. Wind noise is ok since it cannot be removed completely. The motor noise is what that cannot be accepted. For that reason, avoid dymax products at all cost.

I am using kotobuki brand. Zero motor noise, wind noise is oozing, comfy to the ears more than anything. Temperature hovering between 26+ to 28 depending on room temperature.

I got JBJ cbreeze, the only noise is windnoise. use it for 2 weeks then decided to get a chiller. if anyone wants to buy just pm me...

Hi, was at LFS today enquiring about fans, was recommanded JBJ cbreeze and mr aqua, these 2 is the quietiest and most effective imo. However, its slightly more expensive.
