This is the best fan, but im on my 3rd in the past 10 years because the plastic parts that keep the grill on the fan break too easily.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought my 1st 783 2 months ago. I just ordered 2 more the other day. The way the fan circulates air around the room is amazing and it's not loud at all. It's extremely powerful and the air is noticeably cooler. It's perfect for the bedroom, the hum of the fan on high drowns out most of the outside noises and makes for some good long uninterrupted sleep. Sleep is so good I bought a total of 3 of these, one for each bedroom. I highly recommend this fan.

5 Years old and speeds up / slows down :(

I have had many Vornado, variable speed, fans. I discovered the table top models intially and was wowed when I saw the Variable Speed Full Size model at the store. I have had my full size fan for 5 years and, although I love Vornado fans, like many other I have owned it is now malfunctioning. It speeds up and slows down on its own becoming loud and then quiet. This seems to be a common problem with the Vornado fan and I'd expect more for the additional money I pay for Vornado quality.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good Fan First 2 years

This was a good fan for about 2 years and then the motor bearings began to fail. One of mine has trouble starting because the bearings are freezing up. The other one rattles when the blades are spinning. Nobody makes anything that lasts anymore. Its a sad fact!

I agree with others wholeheartedly that the move to the 3-speed design was a step in the wrong direction. We bought our first Vornado quite a few years ago, when the variable speed dial was available, and it's still going strong: quiet and powerful -- we love it. The first one was so good that we bought a second one; we were very disappointed in the 3-speed dial, and from the beginning, the fan just wasn't as effective as the first one. We should have returned it, but alas -- first it became noisy, and now the motor has died. Too bad -- this was once a fabulous product, but we either got a lemon the second time around or Vornado's quality control is failing...

Bring back the variable speed control

I have bought 2 of these fans over the years. Very simply, no one builds a better fan, I think, than Vornado. I use one in a family room (without the full-height extension). The other moves between the master bedroom (its primary spot) and the living room or dining room in really nasty hot weather. Although this is a "whole room" circulator, the design makes it directional enough when you want to aim the air primarily at one area (like my face). The only reservation I have about buying any more Vornado fans is the switch to 3-speed controls. I absolutely, positively prefer and want the variable-speed rheostat control. It might cost a little more, but I would happily pay the price.

moves air but has issues

I got this upright air mover for a condo north of Boston. It's been great and is used year round but I have a few complaints, some of which have been resolved. The unit can be knocked over and on ours the front face plate came loose. To vornado's credit they quickly shipped a new face plate. Cleaning--this thing is very hard to clean. We keep a moderately clean home but the vornado gets packed with dust and muck if you use it in the kitchen at all. You can take off the face plate and fan blades but the rest of it is very hard to disassemble and clean. I wish they had designed that better as I would pay for the ability to clean the thing more easily. It's really an eye sore we hide from company at this point even though it still has great functionality and utility.
