Amazon.com Review: Maximize the performance of living room, bedroom, or office heating and cooling systems by moving and mixing all the air in the room with the Vornado air circulator. A revolutionary air movement system combining the effectiveness of the ceiling fan, winter and summer, with the advantage of portability, this circulator features deep-pitch blades for whisper-quiet operation. A removable grill offers easy and convenient cleaning. The unit's serpentine steel base and stylish low-profile design blend with any décor.
How it works: Air behind the circulator is drawn into the unit and is directed by an Inlet Guide Cone. This cone acts as an air accelerator, increasing the air velocity to the center of the blade and projecting outgoing air farther into the room. Vornado's Deep-Pitched Blades take big bites of air to force them through the circulator. A duct around the blade keeps air from slipping off the blade tips and helps direct it forward. The AirTensity Grill directs airflow into a tight vortex that whirls across the room pulling even more air into its beam. When that whirl of air reaches the other side of the room, it is drawn back around the perimeter of the room and ultimately back to the circulator to cycle again and again for even temperatures throughout. Vornado covers the circulator with a lifetime warranty. --Brian Olson

Rating: - Great mover of air
I purchased this to move air from a room AC across a refinished attic. Within 15 minutes of turning it on medium, both rooms are cool in 90+ weather. Really moves the air with little noise. A great product.
Rating: - The best fan I've ever owned
I can't add much to the other reviews, other than they are 100% right on. We really don't like to run the AC in our apartment at night (and don't like paying for it) but with our Vornado running on the lowest setting and pointed just over our heads, we are as comfortable as possible. Be sure and get one with the continuously variable speed settings, so you can run it really slowly (and quietly). No fan is completely silent, but you can hardly hear the motor at all, just the woosh of the air around the blades and through the vent.
This is an excellent product.
Rating: - Best fan I have ever purchased.
I recently purchased this and another fan, a tower fan from Enviracaire, and often bring this fan into the main room to replace the other fan. I wish I had bought two of these instead.
Rating: - BEST FAN EVER
CAN'T BEAT THIS FAN FOR MOVING A LOT OF AIR. AS WITH ANY FAN YOU HEAR IT RUNNING WHEN AT FULL SPEED. I FOUND IT WORKS GREAT AT 1/2 SPEED AND THE VARIABLE CONTROL SPEED IS SUPER. MADE IN THE USA STILL STANDS FOR QUALITY.
Rating: - LOVE IT ! LOVE IT!
I got this many years ago and can not say enough about it. When you turn it down low, it is very quiet and when turned up it has enough air to cool the whole room.
I turn it up at night to drown out the noise of the neighborhood, (city living) and it keeps the room cool even when it turn away from you..I find that the power of the fan is the best in the market, esp. for the size..I have gone thru lots of fans, but this one keeps going, and going for years and years...
