A good purchase. Works well and most importantly, quietly.  The one we had before looked similar, but it make all kinds of noise and even though it's not in a bedroom, it was very annoying. For those who want absolute silence, this is probably not the fan for you, but for this size and this price, it is very good. I don't install anything myself, but the guy who did said it was easy.

We purchased this humidifier for a baby's room to help humidify the dry air in the room.  It works well and very quietly.  The slight bubbling noise is actually very comforting and acts as a satisfying white noise like a gentle babbling brook.  We always had a stuffed animal which made this white noise or played a CD with relaxing white noise music playing previously, so this replaced this, while also adding the benefit of humidifying the room.

The tank works simply.  You refill the basin and then place it on top of the base.  It will start to fill up the lower chamber and slowly draw the water out of the tank and changing it into a humid mist which it sends through the central tunnel and out through the top.  You have two directional pointers at the top to shift the humid air in a certain direction, such as the baby crib.  It sits about 1 foot tall and we would normally either set this on a dresser or TV table and plug the unit in.  I never had any issues such as powdery deposits mentioned in other reviews however this may be due to differences in water (hard water, soft water, etc.).

We would occasionally use this ourselves when the cold dry winter air set in and we needed some humidity in the room.  Overall, I highly recommend this for both the effectiveness of the unit and also the price as compared to other humidifiers.

I purchased this to replace the fan/heatsink on a Sapphire Radeon R7 260x for a 'silent' PC build that'd be used both for audio/music production and moderate gaming. At idle, it is near inaudible, and at load it is still quiet. Temperatures are slightly lower than stock.

The included installation manual was a little bit confusing but it ultimately wasn't that difficult to figure it out. I did end up having to remount the L2 rotated 180 degrees from what I did initially, as it interfered with a PCI slot in the other orientation. This resulted in only being able to have the RAM heatsinks half on the chips, but the card still seems to operate well and cool. As this is a universally designed heatsink I expected some compromise.

I was looking for a compact and quiet fan to cool a media player and external hard drives, as cooler electronics last longer. This little fan is perfect for the job. The one I received is so quiet that I can't tell that it is running from a distance of five feet. Not surprisingly, it is made in China. Surprisingly, it seems to be of excellent quality construction. Nearly all parts are made of metal, save the little rubber sleeves on the metal base and perhaps a bushing behind the fan blades, and the switch. The switch feels like it is of good quality. The little shaded pole motor looks well built. All fasteners appear to be metal screws. The fan is hefty for its small size. I haven't measured the length of the electric cord, but it seems to be a generous four feet in length. The plug is solid and of good quality. The power cable is a fairly hefty gauge given the power consumption of such a small unit. The fan blades are actually made of metal (I didn't think that such a fan existed any more). Spacing of the grille wires is so narrow that it can safely be picked up by one's finger tips while running without danger of nipping one's fingers. It moves a considerable volume of air for its diminutive size. I plan on purchasing at least one more of these to help keep computer peripherals cool during the summer months. A very quiet unit. Plus, the price is outstanding for a unit of this quality.
The only (minor) undesirable characteristics: The switch is located on the back of the fan grille, so one must reach over and behind it to actuate the switch. Also, the pivots upon which the fan moves to adjust its elevation lack tension adjustment knobs, so that should the elevation pivots become loose, one may have to use a screw driver to tighten it up. I consider these minor blemishes in an otherwise excellent device.

I ordered one of these for my office and was so impressed by how quiet it is and how well it works that I ordered one to aim over the top of my stereo's amplifier to blow away hot air.  (Quiet operation is essential for this use, and, on low, this fan is nearly silent.)  Both have been on (usually on the low setting) continuously since I bought them and they've operated flawlessly.

I highly recommend this fan, or perhaps a larger model in the series for a big room.  Even this little one really moves air well if you want gentle movement.  As I understand, Vornado's design of the fan blades allows their fans to move air more efficiently than some lesser kinds.

Very quiet.  It was packaged very well to protect it during shipping.  Met my expectations.

Fan has been in use for a couple months now as radon fan, and operates very quietly. Installation was not difficult . The electrical connectors made it straightforward. May need some dishsoap to get rubber couplings to seat, as I did.

Mostly quiet, but burbles occasionally during operation. Cost effective. I bought two of them because of the low price. Been using for over a year without problems,

Super quiet. Only a tiny bit of wobble on high when you first turn it on sometimes. Not enough to bother me.

Easy to use.  So quiet you don't even know it's working!!

Works well and is very quiet.  Our old pump could be heard through the whole house (even on 2nd floor).  This you can barely hear when you're in the basement.  My wife thought it wasn't working at first.

Got one of these along with the companion model without the thermostat controller (6 fans total). I have a large computer cabinet I installed these in, replacing the old fans which had worn out bearings. Even at the highest speed setting, the fan noise isn't a burden. I can certainly hear them, especially when close, but they are no more intrusive than the central AC, or a fridge condenser.

At the lowest fan setting I have to really listen to notice it. It does a good job at ventilating the cabinet. I keep the sensor on the hot side of my computer equipment and it's rarely hotter than mid-80's so the air circulation certainly is effective even with considerable heat being generated by the computer equipment.

Unit is attractive and extremely quiet. It has been successful in providing winding necessary for my Bulova watch to work for about 4 - 8 hours without much movement on my part.

Works well and is quiet. Had about 2 weeks now.

Very great at cooling your rig and it doesn't have an annoying or even remotely loud sound to it, although, you will hear it.
