This my third vintage style Vornado fan. I have all 3 sizes. They really move the air due to having metal blades. Don't waste your money on anything else.
I bought this for my daughter and ended up switching to the chrome fan. Customer service is amazing and the fan is probably the best modern fan of this type that I have tried. It circulates they air will and cools the room wonderfully. Planning to but another soon.
My third Vornado and a little disappointed. At medium and high speed, the unit noise fluctuates in pitch, which gets irritating over time. It's placed in the corner of a room about two feet from each wall. It reminds me of how a window box fan would sound as outdoor wind speeds changed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought a green Vornado Vfan Senior and a smaller ivory colored one, and they are marvelous. Powerful and excellent. Great products, beautiful design, quality fans. I love them!
I always thought it was a bit pretentious to use, as the name of your product, a slightly modified version of a severe weather event. After having my Vornado for two weeks, however, it seems more apt than ever. No, the device doesn't cause devastating damage to my home, but it sure does make sure every air particle in the house swirls and twirls all day long. In fact, we bought the Sr. for a small bedroom thinking that, like every fan we've ever owned, this large model would be acceptable. Instead, we've found that it's almost too much for the small space and will be best utilized in the larger areas of our home. We will be adding a smaller model for the bedroom sometime soon.
