Love the fan, but it's difficult to clean.

I love everything about this fan - except - it is difficult to clean. Seeing the dust accumulate on the fan blades and not being able to access them, for purposes of cleaning, is frustrating.

Not up to historic vornado standards

This fan has many cons, and too few pros to be recommended. It looks nice, but does not work nearly as good as any of the other vornado fans I own. The choice for the rocker switch is dumb, as you have to secure unit with one hand to change speeds. The motor is really annoying, with pulsing and doesn't move much air for it's trouble. Also it is not designed to be easy to clean like every other vornado i have. Seems like a knock off with a Vornado emblem on it. If the new towers use these type of fans, you can count me out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not Thrilled

I am considering returning the "personal circulator", since I thought it was more like a fan. I wanted it for my bathroom since my cheap fan broke; the old fan produced more air flow. Agree that control is awkward. Also, I was disappointed in the black cord on a white fan. Kind of makes the fan more obvious in the room. I may try a Vornado FAN instead.

Pros outweigh cons for the Flippi 10

The Flippi10 performs very well for its size and has kept the hottest room in the house cool when it has been 105 degrees this summer. It would be nice if if it had a tiny bit smaller footprint so it it would fit a little bit more conveniently on more surfaces including windowsills. The controls are a little stiff, as is the button to turn on the oscillation, so two hands are best to use just like the other reviews have already stated. I also think that that when the fan is "flipped" closed, it looks rather strange like some kind of hygenic or medical machinery. I don't like to close it. I also own the smaller Flippi 6 and it doesn't present with the same illusion because it is smaller and not white in color. Even on the highest speed, the noise the fan puts out is minimal. It has been a lot louder on fans that work half as well in my house previously, so though I acknowledge some buzzing at the higher levels, it could be worse.

Great looks but noisy

I have several Vornado products and love most of them. This fan is attractive and moves air well but it is noisy and the gear type on off switch is awkward to use - requires two hands - one to hold the unit and the other to move the switch. I use it in my kitchen and it's helped in the hot days of summer. I just wish it were much quieter so music or tv doesn't have to be so loud.

I have this flippi fan and the V6 and I like them both but I find the speed selecting dial hard to use. I takes two hands to turn it on and off.

Hard to clean

I have had this version for about a month now and have to use it at night due to issues with keeping cool. It now makes a noise in the motor and it is hard to keep clean. Please let me know of a way to clean this fan!

Great fan but don't like on/off switch.

I am just going to echo previous comments, in that I don't like the on/off switch. I too, prefer something that only takes one hand. A dial of some sort, like many of the other products. And I have many. That said, these are the only fans I own.
