So we bought this fan about a month ago to circulate the air in the basement. (We’ve had the smaller version going in the master bathroom pretty much 24/7 for several years.) Plugged it in at the dining room wall to see if all was in order, left the room, and when I returned, our 8yo Alaskan Malamute, Velma, had positioned herself in front of the new fan and Would. Not. Budge. After a few days trying to lure her away from her new best friend, we gave up and bought *another* VFAN Sr. for the basement. So Vornado, you can officially claim your product to be Malamute Approved!™
I purchased this fan about a month ago and like its design and function. It’s quiet, heavy in weight and the retro look is very nice. My only problem with it is that it doesn't blow like the old model 210 did. So I’m going to keep this one but will have to buy a model 753 to replace the 210 with.
I already own a Vornado space heater and love it. I decorate my 1918 built home with vintage decor or new made to look vintage. I am currently making my bedroom look like the 1940s and 1950s. No central air in this old house, so I use fans. I ordered the largest Vornado fan in the green for my bedroom. I LOVE it! I haven't had to set it on high yet and I get great air flow!
Been running it nonstop since I bought it a month ago without issue. More powerful than a more expensive tower fan I already had that's twice it's size. Will probably buy a second so I don't have to keep carrying it around the house.
We bought this and a pedestal. Here is my review for the pedestal, which applies equally here: I absolutely love this fan. It is quiet, powerful, heavy, and well made. And it looks good in our house. I had grown used to the crappy plastic oscillating fans that we have used over the years and stopped thinking about fans as part of a home cooling strategy. With these new VFANs, we have bumped up the thermostat setting for our heat pumps and are even more comfortable than when the temp is lower. I'm already trying to think about where I would put a 3rd.
