Review on πŸ”₯ White Vornado Velocity 3 Space Heater | 3 Heat Settings, Adjustable Thermostat, Advanced Safety Features by Traci Westhoff

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Works great as a fan, bad as a heater

A few years ago I replaced an oil heater with heaters for cost reasons. I run different Vornado devices depending on the room. This heater is the darkest of them all. People need to understand that they have two driving forces behind heaters: heat output and fan speed. They go hand in hand. If you have a really hot heater but no fan power it won't fly far and then just float up and away, but on the other hand if you have a very powerful fan but poor heat dissipation you'll end up blowing cold air. It has a great fan in here and it's very noisy (quieter than the air conditioner). The problem is that it generates less heat than any other Vornado unit I have, except for the tower heater (which I returned a few years ago). we'll never catch up. We have 3 tavh10 units which are about the same size with a much slower fan speed but generate a lot more heat than this unit so we get more heat dissipation overall. generates much more heat at a fraction of the price. I don't understand why they couldn't use the tavh10's thermal design with this unit's fan design.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Negative impression
