Great product to keep the whole room cool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product couldn't have come at a better time-summer heat has hit the country, and some days feel just miserable. I live in a small apartment with just a window air conditioning unit, so I really looked forward to using this product. And I have to say, I've been impressed. First, what should be stated-this circulates air. If the room is just filled with hot air, it's going to be a hot breeze. You must have some sort of cool air flowing, whether from air conditioning or windows open, to truly appreciate how much this product can cool a room. I turned on the window unit and placed this fan on the opposite side of the room. The air flow allowed the entire room to feel cool, as opposed to just near the window unit. In the past I've used a box fan to blow the air from the window unit-that worked okay if the fan was blowing directly at you, but anywhere else in the room didn't get the same effect. With this Vornado fan, anywhere in the room would get the benefits of the air circulation. On the days it was a bit cooler out, I was even able to turn the air off and just let the Vornado circulate the air-this will certainly be a cost saving benefit for sure. Now I have a smaller apartment, so this worked well to cool not only the room it was in, but also the next room (if the Vornado faced out of the air conditioned room into the next); however, somebody with a bigger house might not get the same effect. This seems to work best in a large room or a small apartment. There are very few negatives I could really report on it. It is a bit heavy and bulky, but that just proves its stability. And while it is absolutely quieter than putting my box fan on high, it's not totally silent-you will still hear the fan, it just won't be as obtrusive. So in conclusion, I would definitely recommend this fan for anybody who wants to turn down their air conditioning and save a little money, but not sacrifice comfort. This would certainly be a great investment.
Pros: Adjustable, Good Power Output, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy, Heavy / Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

Vornado Pedestal Fan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Vornado Pedestal Fan was easy to put together and is very sturdy and durable. It's fairly quiet compared to other fans, and I like that it's easy to take apart to clean. It also has a cool retro look. It's perfect to use in a living room or bedroom to keep air well circulated.
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Good Power Output, Quiet, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy / Bulky

This fan is so cool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this fan for a few weeks now and I love it! This fan is very quiet on low but it is still powerful. I live in an old house with no A/C so I need something to keep me a little cooler while I sleep. I use this all night long with it on high and it's a little loud but I've gotten used to it. It's not as loud as the old fan I had and that one had very little power on high seeing. This is a retro fan but I wish it was a different color. The green is a very unattractive color and that's mainly the reason why it's in the bedroom so no one sees it. The other issue I have is that it does not oscillate. Also, the top part is heavy and I have to continuously tighten the top so it doesn't fall off the base. I do like that the base is heavy so the fan will not tip over if I accidentally bump into it. If you are looking for something retro that is powerful yet quite then this is the fan for you. If it came in a different color I would definitely want another one.
Pros: Durable, Good Power Output, Quiet, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy, Heavy / Bulky, Lacks Adjustability

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all I want to thank this company for allowing me to test and keep this fabulous Vacation fab. I received it in the mail within the three days I was told through email. It came to me in great shape and well packaged. Of course I was excited and wanted to open it right away. When I opened it I plugged it up immediately. This fan blew better than an air conditioner on high fan. I was amazed at how good this fan was the air from it felt so good I actually turned my air conditioner off. I haven't turned it off yet. I would definitely buy another fan like this one. I live in a state that is hot more than 6 months of the year and it seemed impossible to go without running the air conditioner, but when this Vornado fan came here it changed everything. The way this fan rotates the wind it's like real Tornado wind affect. I really love this fan. The only con I found about this fan is the fact that it is a little heavy and there are no wheels on the base of it. I think it would be better if there were some attached to the base so the customer could tilt it a little and be able to roll it wherever they feel it's convenient. Other than that this is one of the best experiences I have had with any fan I have ever bought yet. I want to thank you Vornado for allowing me to have this great opportunity to experience this wonderful sensational feeling of having a fan that I no longer need extra air conditioner wind added to cool my room in the heat of the day. Thanks!
Pros: Adjustable, Compact, Durable, Good Power Output, Quiet, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy, No wheels on the base

Great fan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan is great! It's very sturdy and has a cool retro design. It has 3 different fan speed settings all of which are pretty powerful. The only flaw was that the base arrived scratched, so Vornado could use some work on their packaging but otherwise, it's a great product. I would definitely recommend the fan to others.
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Good Power Output, Stable Base

The fan looks good, and receives compliments for its solid, atmospheric presence in the room. Heavy enough to be stable, but easy to move. It's such a hit that my grandchildren asked me to get another one for the guest room. The air circulation design works, this is not just a regular fan.
