When you go to bed, do you sleep with the fan running or do you not use one at all?
 
If it's really hot and sticky, and I don't have any A/C, yes, I'll use a fan, but then again, I sleep more restful if I'm covered. I think that might be a security/safety thing rather than purely a comfort thing.
 
Fan alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the way.
I'd take being cold over being hot any day of the week. That's what the blankets are for!
 
I don't use a fan since the air conditioner is running most of the time, be it winter or summer.
There's only about a month or so when it's not in use at all.
 
No fan for me... I think the noise would just keep me awake!
 
I like the fan circulating air in the room, but not blowing directly on me.

i usually fall asleep listening to podcasts so the noise is a non-issue, lol.
 
I also like the air circulation in the room, but not blowing directly on me. :cool:

I have this quacky, personal theory that it's healthier....the little viruses & other icky things have a tougher time settling down; also keeping the bedroom a bit cooler than the rest of the house at nite. :D
 
Right now its too cold for a fan but I have a small table fan on the lowest setting in my room. Just for a little circulation.
 
With the fan running. I need some kind of noise going in the background. Otherwise it's too quiet.
 
I don't need a fan to sleep. I mean, there is no point trying to get used to using fan and sleep. If there is a light challenge, I may end up not enjoying the sleep.
 
When I sleep, no matter the temperature and the time of year I have to have the fan running, I find if the fan is not running I struggle to sleep without the noise of the fan.

I used to think I was weird but then found more people who also do that. so I don't feel alone anymore.
 
Depends on the season for me too. In summer, the AC tends to be on a lot. If it's winter... Sometimes I use it if the heat gets too high but usually not necessary.
 
I have sensitive eyes so while I love having a fan on, they dry out my eyes and they get all irritated.

Well, close your eyes & go to sleep. :p :p :p :p :p
