Big, fairly quiet, moves a lot of air. The blue LED light for the Ionizer feature is very bright in a dark room (bright enough to cast shadows in a completely dark room) but compared to other fans with tons of flashing lights and colors I'll take it any day.

This fan moves a massive amount of air. However, I find it to be noisy. I also have concerns about the mounting tabs. They appear to be too small to stand up to long term use. Time will tell on that.

A little noisier than anticipated. The mood settings have varying noise as it cycles through the wind strengths.  Not conducive for white noise during sleep.  Very powerful,  cools a large room with ease.

It's really noisy, and maybe I should've gotten something that spins around the room, but at least it does blow a lot of air.

The climate control in my office can be a bit underwhelming.  Sometimes it drifts over 80, and that's a bit much for me.  I needed a fan for my cube.

This one is pretty quiet, moves good air, and has flexible mounting options to allow for a variety of places to direct air at you (or not).  The clip isn't perfect, but it does what I need it to do, and makes a noticeable difference.

Quite enough while still moving plenty of air on the lower two settings.  No louder then anything else out there on the two higher speeds but moves much more air then similar physically sized units. This unit, and if I can find a similar unit that oscillates, will be what I buy from now on.

This Fan blows a lot of air.  I installed it on the attic, My house is about 1100 sqf.  It does its purpose.  I can hear when it comes on and stays on.  It a little loud.  But it does not bother me. I can get use to it.  I would buy it again.

This may not be the most stylish or glamorous fan, but it's very, very quiet, and moves a lot of air.  It's also very light, and easy to get into places.

If I had one complaint, it would be the slowest speed is still a little strong, but, for the price, this unit can not be beat.  It's excellent.

Although it is noisy, as expected, it is quieter than my previous large fan. It works wonders to pull air through the house.  I'm thinking of getting another one for outside.

Quiet yet moves a lot of air on high (a little louder).  Hard to turn on without using two hands - one to steady the fan and one to turn the knob.

Not the prettiest fan ever made but it does a GREAT job of moving air! It is huge but lightweight and the handle makes it easy to move if necessary. The highest setting is pretty loud and would interfere with hearing television but if you can position yourself within 10 feet of it, you won't need to crank it that high and will still keep cool. At level 3 youll hear nothing but a rush of air, which is soothing if you like white noise. As a matter of fact, this is an excellent white noise machine, as its able to block out traffic sounds from the busy boulevard in front of my house.

The Wind Machine comes ready to use out of the box  plug it in and you're set!

I never thought Id be excited about a fan, and this might be heat-induced delirium talking, but Im really pleased with my purchase. Havent yet had to try to clean the blades but will edit this review with an update should that prove to be a hassle.

We use this in our living room, which is rather long and has lower ceilings. On low, the sound is barely noticeable, but on high, it's pretty loud. It doesn't bother me, though -I actually love white noise and it helps me calm down enough that I can take an afternoon nap if it's hot enough outside. It doesn't have a large footprint, being that it's a tower fan, and the size of it is manageable enough that I can put it on a tool or an end table to move air higher than waist-height. I've thought about getting the largest size fan, and might in the future, but for now, this is really enough for us in combination with the A/C we bought on Amazon as well.

It's quiet, powerful and very well designed.  It really moves a lot of air and makes a nice white noise.  It's worth the price.

Really does move a lot of air.  Everything that you want a Vornado fan to do.  Not too loud to sleep near.  Too loud to have a phone conversation sitting sitting next to it (on the high setting), though.  It's not an air conditioner, but it move air from point A to point B in a hurry.

Really moves the air without being too loud. This is the quietest, large floor fan that we've ever had. We bought 2. One fan sits at the bottom of our stairs in the basement level, pushing the cooler air up, and the other is upstairs pointed at the ceiling circulating the air.

Bigger than i expected it to be. But is really powerful and displaces a lot of air in a very short time.
