Not exactly a high performance fan

It worked fine for about 2 hours and broke when my dog knocked it over. I mean look at the booth. It's not that high. It hit him pretty hard, but I didn't expect the mighty magazine fan to break so easily after falling from 6" to 8". I've had cheap boxing fans that have withstood a lot more abuse from children and dogs, so much for a heavy demand. I wasn't impressed, especially the price. I hate writing bad reviews, you can count them on one hand.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Based on relatively good reviews I bought two of these fans to install in workstations where my teammates work within 3 to 6 feet of desks. + for fast delivery, but the fans themselves are not good. They're pretty loud, which makes you think they're pretty powerful, but they're not. Barely feeling the air moving over the tables (about 4ft from the fan). Pretty poor performance, I scheduled a return about 15 minutes after they arrived. finds the best fans that are worth the money.

Pros
  • I keep my fists
Cons
  • Functionality

Poorly made and what you are paying for is Dewalt matching Yellow Color

This fan did not impress me at all. The clamp was useless. It didn't hold onto anything as it had rounded components instead of flat ones (so there was no way to securely attach it to something flat and strong like a table) and it wasn't strong enough to hold on to a cylinder-like rod. To make matters worse, the lag screw handle on the clamp broke after two turns and without much effort. For $60 you get a fan that goes with your DeWalt boombox and a drill bit, but that's about it. I'm back and…

Pros
  • Beautiful
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Great fan, however the soles of the feet slip on the tiled floor!

Vornado fans are very good quality, well made. I own several different sizes, they have had them for many, many years. I don't like the stand on this machine. The legs slide on the tiled floor, meaning the legs are spaced apart and do not "stand" higher. The legs hold up better on concrete or other rough surfaces, but an improved leg system is needed to allow them to be locked in place like the collar locks this unit already has. I had enough air at low revs and I'm always hot. I put this fan…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • So far so good

This fan is the best among home fans

I have had many Vornados in my adult life and this is the most disappointing purchase of them all. What can I say? It's not very strong either in terms of airflow or in terms of design. The pivot is not strong enough to hold the fan in place. The clamp is complete nonsense. I installed this fan to be fixed to the bed so there is a nice breeze all night and it always falls in the middle of the night. I would return it if I could figure out how to do it but I can't so I'm stuck with this junk…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Useless features

Something was missing. Bad design, bad workmanship, bad quality control.

Bought this fan to use as a touring drummer. It was difficult for him to achieve moment of inertia right out of the box. He acted like he needed a capacitor to get started. I just reached out and twirled it with a drumstick and it all went well. I got it just before the show and it was hot on stage so I had to leave it overnight. After that it was packed with my other stuff and I didn't think about returning it. We played once a month and practiced for almost three hours once a week. So I ran…

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Not sure

Not what I was hoping for.

Vornado makes big fans. I have many and they are all great. Great as a fan. The problem is I was hoping to get a reliable fan that I could attach to my son's bed that is bigger and more reliable than many other mini fans you see for this purpose. The extra clip is plastic and essentially useless. The fan is a lot bigger than it looks and this clip doesn't stand a chance of holding it. Not even close. The base on three legs is also plastic, and until the legs are completely apart they don't get…

Pros
  • practical matter
Cons
  • embarrassing

Terrible stand and mount - not everything can be plastic

Both the stand and claw mount are terrible for this fan. All fasteners are plastic, which causes the screw used to tighten the cam mount to break on first use, rendering it completely unusable. Why Vornado didn't use metal for any of the fasteners I don't understand, it's just a really dumb choice. The tripod worked fine but the fan cannot be adjusted without loosening the screw that holds the fan to the mount which is just an annoyance as the screw can stick pretty badly as everything is…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Negative impression

Midway is the best home fan

So I bought it partly because of the marketing on the product page and partly because of the reviews. To be honest, I didn't read as much as usual. It's hot, I wanted a working fan, I turned to the Vornado brand. I wanted something with a different form factor that could be slotted into the window. etc. So this thing is made out of a lot of plastic. However, he seems to be super powerful. This shop fan is very noisy because due to the form factor, ie it doesn't have a "big" fan blade, it has to

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others
