Review on Vornado EXPAND4: Compact Air Circulator Travel Fan with Collapsible Body - Powerful Multi-Directional Airflow, Built-in Carry Handle, Cord Storage - Black by Michelle Seitz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big . . . when you are 3 feet away

This is NOT a full room air circulator. Do NOT be fooled by the addition, this is NOT a "real", medium or even small Vornado. It has two speeds - low and extra low. - Whispering air can be heard at the lowest level. Completely silent and pushes what could be mistaken for a child blowing out birthday candles from 2 feet away. It's noticeably louder on the highest setting, putting out a gentle breeze that reaches about 3 feet. For circulating pump "all room". . . I do not understand. I tested a single sheet of paper: 1 foot - the paper creases significantly, 3 feet - the paper barely moves, 6 feet - no movement. Now for the journey. . . it breaks nicely. It's not light, but for travel lovers, it's much lighter than a small fan. If I put it next to me and DIRECTLY on top of me, it runs "OK" like a fan at full speed. Just be aware that it's very loud on the highest settings and you won't hear anything beyond 3ft. Very disappointing product and NOT worth the money.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Very expensive
