Next best thing to the original

I have several vintage Vornados. At least one has a plastic blade, but most are metal. To me, the sound they make (especially the metal-bladed ones) is absolutely their best feature. It is the most relaxing white noise I've ever known. I'm very happy that Vornado is now making them in this style again, and I encourage reproduction of some of the other old models. I'm quite satisfied with the quality of the one I have, but it doesn't have the same sound as those old ones. Still, I don't regret the purchase -- it is a well made fan and I like how it looks. I'd definitely buy another if it came out with a metal blade.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fan letter for a fan
on June 15, 2015
Posted by: Deborah

When I saw this fan, it blew me away. The color isn't accurately captured on this website; in reality it's a deeper mossy color, a color that takes retro a step further. Sitting in the store where I found it, no object could look more out of place. This fan belongs in an Iowa farmhouse, or in a Vermont country store. I'd have bought it even if it didn't work, because of its iconic looks and workmanship. It truly belongs in the Museum of Modern Art for its flawless industrial design. But enough about appearances. It's a powerful fan that pivots to any position. It's a perfect size to fit into my small cottage and yet deliver airflow I'd expect from something 3 times its size. It sounds like an old school fan, a great white noise. And although I haven't cleaned it yet, it appears to have been thoughtfully designed to maximize cleaning the blades and inner body. This fan is a home run and a true breath of fresh air. Or, more accurately, a most welcome blast from the past.
Pros: Design, Iconic

perfection!

This fan is powerful, quiet, and cute; everything I was looking for! It helps cool down the house during the day and on particularly warm nights I'll put it on low in the bedroom where the white noise is also appreciated. I like that it's small enough to put on a table or kitchen counter and to move it easily from room to room. The chrome finish works well with our minimalist decor, and it always draws appreciative comments from guests. My husband finds it a little loud for his taste when on the highest setting but the sound doesn't bother me. Thanks, Vornado, for making the fan of my dreams!

Finally a high quality all Steel constructed Classic fan!!

I love this very high quality and retro looking fan. It has three speeds and puts out for a small fan. I will likely last 40 years! No more plastic fan that is cheap and ends up in the landfill, This is a 'lifetime' fan. Only has a 5 year warranty, but it will last, and look great too!
Pros: Adjustable speed, Quality construction, steel construction
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quality item, for the most part

This fan has a very solid and substantial feel to it. There is nothing flimsy about it. I have it on a table directed toward my living room and I can feel it up to about ten feet away. I need to move it around to find the best location. It did come with a couple of small surface scratches on the gray housing around the fan motor. They're only cosmetic, but this probably shouldn't have passed final inspection.
Pros: Attractive Vintage Design, Good Air Circulator, Reasonably quiet fan
Cons: Two Small Scratches

Quality worth the price !!

I purchased two air circulators and LOVE their design, color choices offered, and sturdier construction. This is the fourth air circulator that I purchased through the years so I know the product is reliable and efficient. I became 100% brand faithful after the first purchase.
Pros: Well Built / Quality

I just received the VFAN, ...

I just received the VFAN, in chrome....my son turned me on to Vornado...he has purchased used Vornado fan's and has raved about the quality/performance of them...OMG...I should have purchased a Vornado years ago! What a great fan! I live in Fl and it is still 90 degrees here, last night I didn't have to use my (useless overhead ceiling fan] only the VFAN in my bedroom. I need another fan in my home office...a turquoise or a light blue color will go with my shabby chic /coastal/Beach theme...so please add those two colors and you will have another hit on your hands. By the way, my husband was drooling over my chrome VFAN [I think it's guy thing, you know, with stainless steel). I am going to purchase the industrial VFAN for his garage for Christmas and sell his two floor fans [that are taking up valuable floor space and are a waste of energy] on Craigslist! I plan to purchase 3 more VFAN's for my children for Christmas. Talk about the gift that keeps on giving! Thanks for a great product and I love the box, with the retro advertisement, so cool! PS..I plan to add Swarovski Crystals to my Chrome VFAN...[just a little bling)...I will send pics! Satisfied customer for life.
