    Yep, 2 window fans and a ceiling fan all year... (I keep the windows slightly open in the winter). I love the fresh air breeze and the white noise effect.

    Yes, I need the air movement on my face while I sleep. I started one night can't remember when because when I was a child I slept with my face in my pillow.

    I've slept with a fan on for years. At first to block outside noises, now for the cooler air flow. It runs year round, so sometimes in the dead of winter, DH wears a knit cap to bed! lol

    Yep the other half has to have the noise to sleep so it runs all year long. I sleep on the other side of room away from it.

    24 years ago we moved from a large city in MA to the quiet of the country in Maine. We have to have a fan on for the white noise, even in the dead of winter, or we can't fall asleep. Old habits die hard I guess.
