Vornado 133DC Energy Smart Compact Air Circulator Fan with Variable Speed Control, Powerful Personal Cooling, Signature Vortex Action, Adjustable Tilt, Fan for Bedroom, Kitchen, and Home, White

Great little fan very powerful and excellent in running costs, I've seen a few reviews saying that they returned it because it had an American plug, i guess they've never heard of an adapter, luckily i had one in my spare drawer. So you should buy an adapter when you get the fan. I haven't checked but I'd imagine they're only a few quid.

Powerful and silent. With very good control.

This product is totally unsuited for the UK market. It came with a USA plug and voltage was 110, Worse still, an amount was deducted from the return credit. Grossly unfair as it was the wrong product shipped.

TLDR: The only fan brand I use because it’s the best! This is my 4th Vornado in my home. Works great on the bathroom counter. Keeps me cool and helps dry my skincare applications. What I liked: I love this brand and use these throughout my home. I love the compact size, adjustable airflow, and energy efficiency. It doesn’t take up too much space on my bathroom counter. I’m using this to stay cool and dry my skincare between layers. I like that I can tilt it and dial in the exact air flow I want. It’s also very quiet. And it’s a great value for the price. What could be better: While I love all my Vornado fans, the aesthetics aren’t the best. But that doesn’t deter me from buying and using them. Size: This is a compact size, so it would be great as a desk fan or countertop fan. Durability/maintenance: Well, I haven’t had this long but I can say that I bought my first Vornado in 2012, and I am still using it in 2025! It’s also survived numerous moves to include international relocations. So I’m feeling pretty good about this one. These fans will collect dust so I unscrew the front and use a swift duster to wipe it down as needed. Would I recommend: This is best for someone who wants a high quality, durable, energy efficient, compact sized fan. Maybe for the bathroom vanity to dry skincare or makeup setting spray. Maybe on a desk to stay cool while working/studying. About my photo: Photo shows this fan on my bathroom vanity. I put a little tray underneath to keep it higher off the sink. Hopefully, to ensure it doesn’t get wet.

I bought this fan to replace an old fan that was starting to make noise. I use it on my nightstand as white noise to help me sleep. The Vornado has been excellent so far. It's quiet, smooth, and I really like the variable speed knob to fine tune the air movement and noise level. It's a neat looking little fan as well, and not out of place in my bedroom. Highly recommended.

This is THE BEST DESK FAN. The SPEED IS INFINITELY ADJUSTABLE from low to high, and it's very quiet. I'd say it's pretty much silent up to half way, at least in a normal to quiet office environment. The knob is on the front, which means you don't have to reach around back to adjust it. it goes from a very low breeze all the way up to quite a strong breeze. I'm impressed, and I love it.

Small footprint. Easy dial in front for setting speed. Quiet at 1/2 & 3/4 speed. I’ve found that putting it at the highest setting gives no more benefit and is noisy. It throws the air to a great distance giving a cooling effect. Since it’s lightweight, it’s easy to move around. Definitely worth buying.

People will tell you the lower range on the dial is useless fos the same reason soap foams and meds taste bad: people are idiots at knowing something is working unless it annoys them somehow or has some obvious sign (like noise). The fan at a quarter turn is still too much air moving when you just want a teeny bit. The high speed blows air accross the room with less volume than a box fan on medium. (Sometimes even the low on some box fans.) It's wonderful. It's virtually silent on lower speeds. It's energy saving. It pays for itself in a few years if you use a standing fan 24/7. Get it.
