I happen to own three different models of Vornado fans for my South Florida home, and I've been very pleased with the quality and performance of each one.  This particular fan I have situated in my bathroom and I aim it up toward the corner of the room and turn it on full force before taking a shower.  It does an EXCELLENT job of circulating the air and preventing steam buildup on the bathroom mirrors as well as cooling the bathroom to help me dry off more quickly.  I would advise buyers of Vornado fans to read through the description and instructions for their use!  They aren't intended to be used as most "traditional" fans which are aimed at people to cool them off.  Instead, these are "AIR CIRCULATORS" as stated in the product name.  If your intention is to circulate the air in a room (similar to the way a ceiling fan is intended) I highly recommend a Vornado.  I use another one in my kitchen and it does an incredible job of circulating smoke or cooking odors and heat from the stove/oven.

I bought this fan for travel. It was better than I expected for the price. It is easily carried in my purse and I placed it on the hotel bed beside me to push air my way. I have breathing difficulties and this is a super-product to me. I now keep it beside my recliner and when I am short of breath, I aim it right into my face. It pushes an amazing amount of air for as small as it is.

I use a CPAP and have a big fan moving air through my bedroom and still use this little fan for direct air at times.

I think this could be easily damaged with high use or dropping, but for the price, I would not have expected any more.

Anybody with lung or heart issues could use this.

This is the cutest thing! The body is plastic but the screen is metal. I can oscillate (button down) or stationary (button up) and provides a nice breeze that is just enough to circulate the air and cool you off. It's only about 7.5" high and takes up very little space The color is red and not orange but it's still a really nice little fan.

This is just perfect for the desk. I love the that it's split to direct air in two directions.  It hugs the corner of the desk and blends in nicely.

My wife and I were looking into buying a fan that could increase the air flow in our larger bedroom upstairs. We even looked into getting one of the fancier (more expensive) vertical style fans, but we are happy that we made this purchase. Fan has three modes, in which settings 2 and 3 definitely put out some air. It is perfect for a larger bedroom or a place where you need that extra boost of air flow. Even took it camping this summer so we could stay cool on those hot and humid nights (note: fan is not battery operated). It worked great!

PROS:
Cost (great fan for around $30 w/ free ship, can't beat it)
Lightweight
Low-Very High Air Flow (3 modes)
Can tilt fan to point & lock into different angles (upward or downward)

CONS:
None really. I do wish it was taller, but then we could have bought a different style of fan. So no complaints.

Solid purchase. Pick one up!

I was looking for an air purifier that would provide "white noise" and at the same time circulate the air in my bedroom.  A fan works well in the summer but in the winter not so much.  I can't speak to the true effectiveness of this purifier since my bedroom is large and I have four dogs and a husband who share this space with me.  But I can tell the air is circulating but not causing a breeze - and the noise level is perfect for blocking out other house noises.  The penguin adds a touch of whimsy to the room that makes me smile.  I would image this would be a great purifier for a child's room.  I definitely recommend this reasonably price air purifier.

We recently put two of these in our church to circulate air.  They are wall mounted and blow air down one stairway and up another.  They were to replace a high velocity fan the had been in use for the last several years but was quite noisy and in the way.  These are quiet and efficient.  Perfect for preventing that musty smell that sometimes develops in basements with stagnate air.

Works great in my small bedroom!  And with the heat off, it works great as an air circulating fan.

I originally bought this fan to use in my sewing room but my husband claimed it and is using it.  The first fan that arrived was defective so I contacted the seller.  They were very responsive and the second fan works perfectly.  The thing about this fan that both my husband and I like is that its portable and so easy to move from one room to another.  We have other larger pedestal fans and they are heavy and hard to move.  This fan is just the right size to circulate air and cool off a targeted area like an area you are working at or relaxing at.  It's not big enough to circulate and cool down a large room but it works great for when I'm sewing or we are watching TV at night.  It has 3 speeds, High, Medium and Low and puts out a lot of air.  You can adjust the direction of the air flow by tilting the fan up or down.  There is a handle for carrying the fan which makes it easy to move from one area or room to another.  The fan runs quietly and smoothly.  We have had no problem with it and are very happy with it.  I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

After comparing many brands in Amazon, I chose this fan to put inside my small office for better air circulation. It did a great job! This fan is very easy to assemble. I took it out of the box and assembled it within less than 2 minutes (took me longer because I had to find my wall plug extension). Then, it works wonderfully. When the fan is turned on, it's quite silent and the wind also quite powerful. However, there's a time when I changed the position of the fan to be on a top of a box, then the fan starts to have a low noise when it's turned on. When I changed the position again, the fan low noise turned quiet again. So, I think it depends on how you position the fan. I don't mind either low noise or no noise at all. Once I left the fan turned on for the whole weekend (Friday through Monday morning), and when I came, the fan is still working well. So far, I like it. I think I made the right choice with this fan!

I was a little surprised at how small this fan is - I didn't really look at the dimensions - it truly is a perfect desktop fan, and not a floor fan as I had originally planned.  However, it actually worked out better since I have very limited space!  I placed it on a shelf near my bed where it is easily reachable.  The idea is I have one window, and it may be cool out but without any way to get the air circulating in my room, it gets pretty stuffy.

PROS:
 - so far this thing is SOLID.  It is ALL metal or nearly so (probably the switch is plastic).  It has a simple on-off rocker switch in the back that is easy to reach and flip.

- it puts out an AMPLE amount of airflow, especially for such a tiny object

- easy to direct where you want air to go, and doesn't blow everything all over the room

CONS:
 - none, so far.  I just got it so I can't speak to it's durability.  If I have any problems I will revise this review.

- if you are looking for an oscillating fan, move on.  I wasn't, so it's perfect for me.

So far I'm really impressed with the quality of construction and rate of airflow.  It's just right - not too much or too little.  It's a tight footprint.  Very pleased.

I live on the top (4th) floor of an apartment building which gets sun literally all day, but in a semi-temperate city (so no air-conditioning). This fan is a fantastic way to at least feel a bit cooler because of the air circulation it gives. Super easy to mount, took no longer than a few minutes, and does exactly what it's supposed to.

I might buy another one for a bedroom when the summer gets going.

I needed a way to move my refrigerator across my kitchen so that I could put in a portable dishwasher.  The only problem would be the fridge would then be above the only supply vent to the kitchen.  Not wanting it to get hot every time we cooked, I combined this vent extender with 1" caster risers to direct the air from under the fridge and out into the kitchen.  It works great.  In fact, our feet get a little cold when the A/C is running because the air blows so well into the room!  Who would think a 1" tall deflector would allow so much air to move into a room?  This one does.  Made of a pretty sturdy plastic.

I am custom building a cold air intake casing so I can add a snorkle. This is perfect to keep the flow high yet give me a curve to protect it from water getting in from mud holes. I will add a step
Down piece and then run the flex tube to get a snorkle installed. It's a big piece, but it's sturdy and will last forever in regards to my needs.

I don't have much desk space at work, but need a fan in the hot summer months.  This little fan is a great solution!  It moves the air well, is adjustable so can point it whatever direction I need, and doesn't take up any desk space when in use.  And when I'm not using it, I simply stick it in my pencil cup.  No fuss, no muss!

This little fan is amazing!  We bought it to attach to our sons stroller and it puts off as much air as a desk fan.  Been using it for about 8 hours on one charge.  Everyone who sees it comments what a great idea! I tell them exactly where I bought it so they can get one too!

This thing can move lots of air! I take my kids for swim competitions every weekend during the summer in the hot humid VA weather. This think keeps cool when there is no air movement around us. I had to bring an extra battery to make it through the events on mid-low setting (variable knob, not the 1-2-3 switch). Only con is that it noise especially on high.
