Vornado BXR Horizontal and Tower Fan, Multi-position and Multidirectional High Velocity Fan with Carry Handles, 20 Inch

We needed a window fan, but our double hung windows have an opening of 22.75" which is too narrow for most conventional window fans. We purchased a Vornado free standing fan many decades ago, and it is easily the best fan we have ever owned.. So when I saw this Vornado fan that just fits inside our window opening, I order it without hesitation. There is some required assembly to attach the handles. It took some effort to snap the handles into place, but once installed the entire assembly is very solid -- you would never know the fan wasn't fully assembled at the factory. The slow speed is very very quiet yet moves a significant amount of air, perfect for overnight use in a bedroom. Medium speed can easily be heard but is not what I would call loud. The high speed is really powerful and can freshen a room with outdoor air quickly. While the sound level on high is significant, it is still a pleasant white noise. How I assign stars in a review. The star ratings are always in relation to the item's intended purpose, type, and durability. 5 stars - The item is perfect with no room for meaningful improvement. The item performs its intended function consistently, and without fail. It also appears to be durable in its manufacture and materials. 4 stars - While not perfect, any imperfections are likely to go unnoticed in normal use. The item should be durable given normal care and handling. 3 stars - The item has significant shortcomings or limitations, but these do not significantly degrade performance. And/or the item may not be durable if not handled with some degree of care. 2 stars - The item has defects or shortcomings that compromise performance. And/or the item may be likely to fail prematurely even with careful use. 1 star - The item does not function correctly in any meaningful way or is very difficult or even hazardous to use. And/or the item failed completely with very little use.

Didn't work, had to be returned straight away.

I love that the air intake is in the bottom of the fan. I use this to circulate air in my kid's room so the temperature is even. The kid's room air vent is in the corner, blocked by furniture. This fan is on 24/7 placed directly next to the air vent to circulate the air in the room so the temperature is even throughout. It is not the quietest but not invasive. We only use the lowest setting and the white noise helps the kids sleep.

funciona bien, supongo que en espacios grandes no tanto, pero a mí me funciona bien para un espacio de hasta 4x5, la estética fue la razón por la que lo escogí y se ve bastante bien, sólido y resistente, espero no falle.

I purchased this for in front of my Fisher fireplace insert because they no longer make the fan for my fireplace. This works perfect. It blows the air into the intake ducks underneath, and the air comes out around the top of the insert. Air flowing around and warming up my house. Thank you.
