Review on ๐ŸŒฟ Stay Cool and Stylish with the Vornado VFAN Sr. Vintage Air Circulator Fan, Green! by Miriam Davis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

High quality workmanship but poor airflow which is hard to bear.

TL;DR: This fan gets the job done, but its main selling points are its great looks and good build quality. Considering the price, the airflow could be better and the grip would be great. Airflow is less than similar sized fans I've had. A low setting is almost useless; the average will be rather low for comparable fans. However, I usually leave it at that, as high settings are quite loud. The build quality is very good (see photo), so I expect a weight. There is no handle so I tried lifting it from the back into the outer painted metal frame. Oh no. There's very little room to grip (see photo) and when you lift it like this the weight of the fan pushes the front down and it's hard not to drop it. If you move it a lot, it's best to pick it up from below with both hands. A pen would help a lot! The positives: It's beautiful and the build quality feels fantastic. I haven't taken it apart to clean it yet, but I watched a YouTube video and it looks good. That's a plus for me because I don't like fans clogged with dust. Would I buy it again? Maybe, but I'd search more first and maybe watch this sell-off happen.
