I never thought I could love the fan so much

Okay, that's a steep price, but I'm shocked to say this. There is really a difference to other fans. Aside from the thing itself looking so cool that you could call it "the thing" rather than "that simple fan over there," there's actually a difference in how the damn thing even blows the wind. I know. I didn't think it was anything either. But the wind just envelops you in a velvety, airy veil of love, and it's WONDERFUL! And the fan sound is the most perfect fan sound to lull you into the…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some difficulties

CHEAP looking and terrible airflow. All in all

This fan is TERRIBLE! I've come to the conclusion that all of these 5 star reviews are from the seller's staff. Appearance does not match the description. What looks like a sleek anodized finish with "copper accents" in the photos is actually a spray painted glossy brown color with a tacky high gloss finish (see my attached photos). There is no copper here. Functionally, this is the WEAKEST fan I've ever owned. Definitely not worth the price. At the highest setting, you'd better expect to sit a

Pros
  • Fits a lot of people
Cons
  • Not everything is as good as it says

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…

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

Wow, big mistake. suitable for desktop fans

Let me start by saying that I'm a big fan of the Vornado brand. I have their fans, heaters and air purifiers. I have 6 full size fans that are over 25 years old and still work great. These fans were made in the USA. The second set of fans I bought were now made in China. I bought 4 large and 2 small fans. 2 of them failed. A few years ago I bought a set of all-metal classic fans. I have 4 large sizes, 1 small size and 4 small models. Even though they are made in China, they still work…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Nothing
