Vornado573 Compact Flat Panel Air Circulator Fan, 3 Speeds, Moves Air 60 Feet, Fan for Bedroom, Home, Office, Black

As far as fans go Vornado stands alone not just with their patented air flow technology - but the company's long time contribution to history.In the 1920's it was Vornado that developed the technology to make the propellers of fighter planes, faster and more efficient.The company played a major part in developing a new era of aerodynamics that made our planes a formidable force against our enemies during the war.In the 1940's, The company used it's patented designs for fans for both home and commercial.Unlike typical fans the Vornado forces a column of air with tremendous force.Vornado fans should be pointed at the ceiling or at an angle hitting the highest corner of the wall where the wall meets the ceiling. This forces the air to literally explode - filling the entire room with a refreshing cool and constant breeze. The effect is much like a large ceiling fan.For decades we've used the whole room full size models, prior to having ceiling fans installed.However, we still us them, especially in the dog days of summer as they disperse more cold air from the A/C and make running them more cost efficient.Vornado Fans are hands down, the best on the planet.This small table top model is no exception.It's amazingly strong considering it's small size and move air up to 60 feet. It doesn't pivet like the larger fans but can easily be pointed to a wall for the same effect.I'm using this as my desk fan and it's wonderfully effective and like all Vornado fans it's extremely quiet.Ten Benefits:1) Solid Build Quality2) Small Foot Print3) Patented Vortex Technology - move an incredible 60 feet of air4) Ultra Quiet5) Unique, Patented Design6) Cost Efficient - Saves Money On Cooling Costs7) Easy to Clean8) 5 Year Warrantee9) Made In The USA10) Impeccable Customer ServiceVornado fans are remarkable - once you use one, you're hooked for life.

I have a couple of the larger Vornado fans. The idea with the big Vornados is the blades are designed to create a tightly focused, intense stream of air that then moves a long way without coming apart. Basically, you can put a big Vornado on the floor, aim it up at the middle of the ceiling, and the effect is very similar to having a ceiling fan in that room. When that tight, coherent stream of air hits the ceiling it basically explodes out in all directions and pushes the air back down all around the room, with the effect feeling very similar to a ceiling fan. For a room where you can't or don't want a ceiling fan, the Vornado fans are a great choice.Now imagine that same basic design has been shrunk down into a slightly smaller package, without the ability to aim it at the ceiling. That's what you get here.This fan is enormously POWERFUL for its size, with the same kind of tightly focused, intense power you get from the bigger Vornado fans. In fact, in a smaller room, if you turned it all the way up and figured out some way to point it at the ceiling, you could probably get that same kind of pseudo-ceiling fan effect. That's how much oomph it has.I bought it to take into work and set it on my desk a few feet away from me. Turned it on low. Wow, too much. Then I moved it back, then I moved it back again. It is now about 5 feet away and even on its lowest setting, it gives off a very nice breeze. It is very quiet on the lowest setting, still pretty quiet on medium. High is noticeably louder, but it moves so much air on the lower settings, I cannot imagine I'll need to run it on high much at all anyway.It seems fairly solidly put together, with the switch, the case and the base and so forth exuding the feeling that they aren't likely to fall apart anytime soon. It is not overly large and the simple, clean design is very unobtrusive for an office environment.The knob to turn it on and set the speed is somewhat awkwardly placed on the back in the upper right hand corner. It is easily reached from behind the fan, but when the fan is tucked into the corner, it isn't the greatest. You also turn it on by moving from off to high, then medium, then low. It would be better if it went the other way, since I cannot imagine there are many people who want a little fan like this to regularly run on high given its power. The power cord could be a little longer as well, but it isn't horrible. The fan does point up slightly when resting on a flat surface, so as the distance from the fan grows, the point of maximum airflow rises. That is good if you want to put it on the floor in a larger room and have it blow on you while sitting on the couch a good distance away, but could make optimum placement more complicated in some tight spaces, since the fan itself is not adjustable in any way, you decide where the air goes by positioning the fan itself. This isn't a problem for me but it could be for some.If you are looking for a small, non-adjustable fan with a lot of power, it is hard to go wrong here. I cannot believe how much more power this thing has than the cheap, basic desk fan it is replacing. If you don't need an adjustable head or oscillator, this is a quality product.

I have had nothing but excellent experiences with Vornado fans and space heaters over the year, so when it came time to shopping for a table fan for my work area the choice of brand was clear ... but which model to buy? I have to admit that price was my main consideration, and when this particular model arrived it looked rather smaller than I was expecting. But wow, does it pack a punch. Even on low speed, it cools my space considerably, especially when placed on the inside sill of an open window to draw cooler air in from outside. And on particularly humid (or, these days, smoky) days when I have to keep the window closed, it does an excellent job recirculating the air of my room (which has 12 foot ceilings) to keep things comfortable. The noise level is perfect: just enough to provide some masking of external sounds, but definitely on the quiet side. The build quality is what I've come to expect from Vornado. And like I said, their customer support is excellent: the two times I had to file a warranty claim (both for space heaters which were hitting the five year mark), the folks who assisted me couldn't have been more helpful and replaced both units quickly and easily. When it comes to fan and heaters, why would you choose any other brand?

El ventilador cumple su función, recomiendo comprar uno de la misma marca pero con ajuste angular, el ruido en nivel 3 ya es muy notorio, veamos cuánto dura.

The media could not be loaded. Only 5 minutes of having this bad boy plugged in and there had been a noticeable improvement. I purchased two, one for the loving room, and one for the bedroom, and the entire house is noticeably cooler by several degrees.I live in the prairies in Canada, and the Summer heat is often unbearable, but these little fans are a complete game changer. I grabbed the smallest size, desperate for at least something to move the air around in my house, because the hood fan wasn't cutting it, and the air in my house is stifling, and they 'blew' away my expectations.There are surprisingly quiet, even on the highest setting, and in a small room, the lowest setting is sufficient for cooling.I also love that the cord can be wrapped behind the legs, and there are jelly stops on multiple locations to allow for different placements if you want to get a specific angle going for optimal air circulation.

I bought this for my kitchen so I could actually have some airflow since my kitchen is very closed-off in my apartment. It works great! It's very powerful on its highest setting, and even the low setting works fairly well.But it's noisy! This is totally fine for me since I only use it in the kitchen when I am cooking or preparing food. If you are looking for air circulation in a quiet space, look elsewhere. You'll never have to guess whether or not this fan is on because it's shouting at you with a righteous fury.

no es tan potente ni circula el aire de la maravillosa forma en que se describe, es mas ruidoso de lo esperado

The fan is being used to circulate air from the house to the sunroom. I wanted a square, smaller profile fan that would stay “wedged” between the low profile windows. This Vornado fits perfectly. It’s quiet and circulates a lot of air! I intend for it to function all year long, and it’s currently helping warm the sunroom. Here’s to it helping cool the space in the summer. Great purchase!
