Review on πŸŒ€ Vintage Gunmetal Vornado VFAN Petite Alchemy Fan - A Classic Cooling Marvel (CR1-0279-102) by Linda Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Superb quality in a small package

I bought this fan hoping it would blow a lot of air up to a meter away but would be small enough to be invisible in a room be. It's absolutely true! I've been running it almost continuously for about two months now and haven't had a single problem. You can also easily blow it out with compressed air (didn't try to take it apart). Sound wise, speed "3" is too loud to talk about when it's around (like most if not all fans at max speed). Speed "2" is more white background noise, and speed "1" is so quiet I accidentally walked out with it on because I forgot. Overall 5 stars for me - I am very happy with the quality, looks and size of the fan. A word of caution: most fan components are made of durable metal and feel great. The dial is plastic, which is very odd - why should the one element that gets touched the most be plastic when the rest of the fan is metal? However, this has not affected the usability of the fan.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
