Vornado460 Whole Room Air Circulator, Small Fan with 3 Speeds, Adjustable Tilt, Easy to Clean, Quiet Fan for Home, Office, Bedroom, Black

Background:Purchased this product in 2020 during Covid, when we were camping and staying in an apartment. Wanted a fan that was easy to carry, didn't take too much power and had decent speed and moved good volume of air. After doing some research, this one fit the bill.Pros:1. Good quality and good material used. Decent heft and not too cheap plastic.2. Though not too small, it is tiny enough to be put in a suitcase or a small tote.3. Good power and really moves the air around. We can be up to 10 feet away and still feel the cool air.4. The handle is well placed, making it easy to carry and place.5. It does not get too hot after running for a long time.Cons:1. Vornado products while priced competitively are almost at higher end of spectrum. But value wise I think they aren't bad.2. Assembly and disassembly can take some efforts (see below).3. Can be a little noisy at highest speed.Customer Support:The fan started residing on the master bedroom counter after the plan-demic. One day, my beautiful half accidentally bumped it and the fan had a 3 feet hard fall onto the stone tile. There were no dings or dents or cracks, but one of the fan blade completely broke causing the fan to be imbalanced. Called customer support, which is US based and explained the condition. The customer service agent checked the warranty information and sent us the replacement part without any charge, despite of being our fault. It took some time to put it back, once the part arrived, as the disassembly and assembly are a little cumbersome. Now it is running as good as new.Bottomline:The product and the customer service of this company deserves 4.7 out of 5.0. I will be buying several of Vornado products in the future, when need comes. So what if they are little expensive, but if they have good US based customer support, then so be it.

Fantastic fan, very powerful. It arrived on time and has been working daily for almost a year. It really helps to move the air in a larger space, say 700 square feet, and fan volume at the highest speed is respectable, not too overpowering. It works great when the a/c is having a hard time keeping up on those very hot days. Great price, I did not purchase the alexa version, but I"m very tempted.

This is a fantastic fan and I recommend this purchase. I live in a hot and humid climate with exceptionally expensive electric rates, so I tend to rely on fans more than air conditioning. I have gone through seven fans in the past two years, all name brand. I purchased two off-brand metal bladed fans a year ago and those are great except they are very loud and are dangerous with small curious children in the house. This led me to Vornado. Here are my points to consider:Pros:Reasonably quiet, even at the highest setting.REALLY moves air. My living room is 22' across and it has no trouble directing air that far.Size--this is a very small fan in comparison to the other fans I've owned (box, pedestal, floor, table), yet it does a better job.Appearance--looks pretty, and isn't an eyesore like other fansSafety--my 1.5-year old has failed in her attempts to shove her fingers through the grill. I'm sure she could if she tried harder, but it wouldn't be easy.Efficiency--I've been without power for two months now (thanks, typhoon) and rely on a power inverter. With this plugged in, it uses 50w at the highest setting. That's compared to my pedestal fan that uses 75w at the lowest setting.Cons:Price--this is not cheap! I purchased this 'repackaged' from Amazon and it saved me $15 from anywhere else I could find online.Buttons--I think the shiny buttons are meant to attract small children, and it does that very well. Though, I don't know where else the buttons could be and still be convenient for adults to adjust. Unless it was a classic dial adjustment.Speed settings--level 3 and 4 are really the only speeds I've used and I can't imagine using anything less...the lower two levels just seem a little useless. But maybe if I didn't live in the tropics, the lower settings might be useful for a whisper of air movement here or there.Lastly, I wanted to address a couple of things I read in reviews. First, this fan CAN be used to direct air at you, as you would a normal fan. It does a very good job at that, in fact. It's just not maximizing the fan's potential as a whole room air circulator if you choose to aim it at yourself for cooling. Secondly, this fan is not hard at all to adjust. I'm not sure what people are attempting to do in terms of angle adjustment, but you simply slide it and it's done. And no--it does not slide out of position on it's own. I'm not kidding, it's very simple and effective.I chose the 660 versus other models based on reviews citing efficiency, and also because it looks nicer than similar models. I am happy with this purchase, it's better than I expected it to be, and I'll be buying two more for the rest of my house...as my budget allows.

The Vornado 660 has completely transformed the comfort level in my home! Unlike traditional fans that just blow air in one direction, this circulator creates a vortex effect that moves air throughout the entire room - up to 100 feet according to specifications.What impresses me most is the versatility of the 90-degree adjustable chrome glide bar. I can direct airflow horizontally across the room or tilt it vertically to push hot air off my vaulted ceilings. This feature alone has made a noticeable difference in maintaining consistent temperatures throughout my space.The four speed settings provide perfect control - from whisper-quiet on the lowest setting (perfect for sleeping) to powerful turbo mode when maximum circulation is needed. The push-button controls on top are intuitive and easy to access.While it doesn't oscillate or include a remote, the vortex technology makes these features unnecessary since it effectively circulates air throughout the entire room. The sleek design with contrasting gloss and matte finishes looks modern and fits well with my décor.Maintenance is simple with the detachable grill providing easy access for cleaning. The 5-year warranty demonstrates Vornado's confidence in their product quality.If you're looking for a powerful, effective air circulator that actually makes a difference in room comfort, this Vornado 660 is absolutely worth the investment!
