Amazon.com Review: Quiet and built of durable plastic, this device circulates air throughout a room at home, at the office, or in a college dorm. Use it alone or with an air conditioner to cool down in the summer and to circulate heat evenly throughout a room in winter. Its 72-watt motor combines with a deep-pitch propeller and a cunning grill design to move air in a tight beam. The head pivots from horizontal to straight up. It has a three-speed control, stands 12 inches high, has a 9-1/2-inch-diameter head, and weighs 5 pounds. --Fred Brack

Rating: - Misleading description
The fan is fine, but it's described as linen white in color. In fact, it's flat out gray.
Rating: - Quiet, works great.
I am happy with my purchase of this fan. Relatively speaking in the fan world it's pretty dang quiet. I don't like noise at night but this one is OK. It's nice looking too.
Rating: - VORNADO MADE IN CHINA POOR QUALITY
The fan pictured is not the fan you will receive! The original USA made Vornado 510 was a 5 star performer. I own both the USA made Vornado 510 and the New replacement China made Vornado 530. The fan being sold now that you will receive is the poor quality Vornado 530 made in China so be forewarned...

The Vornado fan I purchased through Amazon arrived on time and the fan works great! AAAA+
Rating: - Beware - Polsteins would switch US-made 510 for 530
Own several Vornado 510 and 610's for a few years, quite happy.
Decided to add another one and got a substitute - Mexico-made 530,
with substandard quality and unbalanced rotor. So my 2-star rating is mostly about vendor fashion of conducting business, fan itself is perhaps worth 3 stars. Now I am stuck with this one, because would loose $8.50 from original payment + return cost.
But if you are not yet in this trap, beware of Polsteins and their business practices.
