Works like expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This air circulator definitely does its job! When we first plugged it in and turned it on I was pleased to feel it working quickly. We used it in a medium sized living room area that gets fairly warm and has no air conditioner of it's own. The product quickly cooled off the room. I actually needed to lower the speed because it was getting too cold at one point. Overall it doesn't take up much room and is fairly easy to move as necessary. There's no handle though. The fan can be a little loud when it's in full speed. It also has an awkward style base. The wire hangs directly from the fan part instead of the base which isn't aesthetically pleasing.
Pros: Durable, Good Power Output, Stable Base, Well Built / Quality
Cons: Awkward design, Lacks Adjustability, Loud
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was happy to receive this fan as my house had individual air-conditioning units which means if you were not in the room with the actual air-conditioner but instead in a next door room you did not feel it as well so we put the fan in between the doorways from my dining room and living room to be able to pull the air from the dining room air-conditioner into the living room. The fan definitely did it's job. It is not good looking and doesn't fold away neatly but it works well for its size. The wiring is not the smartest since it comes from the top of the fan instead of the bottom Base stand and does not tuck away neatly. Overall I would recommend this to someone who needs a strong fan but does not care about the luxe or placement of this fan.
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Good Power Output, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy / Bulky, Poor wiring design
I would recommend this to a friend!

I would definitely buy this product but wouldn't spend ALOT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really the only other fan I've used was a tower fan and this fan is MUCH quieter which I loved. I barely heard it at all while it was running, I actually forgot it was on! I would definitely look into buying this fan but I wouldn't spend TOO much money on it. It's not really adjustable but I used it in a smaller sized living room and it kept it so nice and cool. I was not aware of this fan before I tried it but I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a good quality, quiet, portable fan.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Good Power Output, Lightweight, Quiet, Stable Base
Cons: Lacks Adjustability
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the fact it is so strong. It could be a little quieter but the sound does not really bother me enough that I wouldn't buy it again. It is tall enough to be over the edge of the bed. I have a tower fan and all the air from the vornado fan reaches me instead of just half of it. And it circulates the air in the room very well. I can even turn off my ceiling fan.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Good Power Output, Lightweight, Stable Base
Cons: Lacks Adjustability, Loud

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this after moving to an apartment without central AC, and it has made hot summer nights pleasant again! This is just the right height to help bring cool night air from outside in through the window and circulate it throughout the entire bedroom. It allows me to avoid turning on my costly wall unit during the day as well. It is much quieter than one would expect for a fan this powerful, plus it’s made in the USA! Overall very pleased with this purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works great but too unstable, especially on carpet

I bought mine in 2007, and have loved it (although I prefer the variable speed of a tabletop Vornado I already had), BUT… it is so easily knocked over (I noticed that the new ones have 4 little pieces under the bottom to, I assume, help stabilize it). It survived falling on carpet numerous times, but falls on hard flooring has resulted in the grill no longer staying in place because the small top edge of 2 of the 3 clips broke off (see photos below of one intact clip and a broken one) — I tried gorilla tape to hold the grate on, but eventually it pulls away and the grill falls off — and a broken speed control knob on the back. It is cracked and very loose and partially pushed into the center of the fan.p I really thought they would have replaced the odd, unstable base on this by now, so now I have a decision to make about what I buy to replace it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the fan in my living room, it's great, the fan blows out cool air! If I could change one thing it would rotate. Other than that it's a great fan, now I'm going to have to buy one for my room.
Pros: Adjustable, Compact, Durable, Good Power Output, Quiet, Stable Base
Cons: Heavy
