Q: how powerful is the air circulation?

submitted by Zintia - 3 months ago
  • A: Powerful enough to circulate air throughout a small room, due in part to its Vortex design.

    Blows air on you if you’re within a couple feet of the fan. Certainly does not cool an average-sized bedroom. Just get an oscillating fan. Also very noisy, as other commenters have pointed out.

    I have 3...but 1 keeps rotating

    4 out of 5 stars
    Jewelz - 1 month ago
    originally posted on a site owned and operated by Vornado Air LLC
    This works great, and it feels like a fan. I have a rectangular room, and it helps the dead air circulate where I like to sit. The AC in my house is missing the area, so the device is helping with that. It is refreshing. My only issue is that when I adjust the head to point in my direction, a few minutes later, it changes directions. I always notice it when I am having a hot flash. I have one in my office, and it blows on my face, so I don't need the AC, and the head doesn't rotate. Any clues on why that is happening would be appreciated. It is a good device though, I have had mine for almost a year.

    Overpriced and Noisy

    Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
    Target Team Member - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    This fan is not $40 worth of cooling. It’s maybe $10 of cooling and $30 in the casing. Unlike other fans that make a constant hum just from spinning, this fan will make a rattle on and off like it’s a car going over lane markers. I can’t sleep with this thing on because the rattling is so loud. Better off getting a generic $20 fan, at least there you’ll get the $20 of cooling.

    Midwestgal - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I purchased this in April of 2023 for my guest room and it has been used less than ten times. I went to use it and it wouldn't turn on so I wiggled the power cord and it came on and this happened again. I am afraid to use it with the short in the cord. It is a rather expensive small fan that I thought would last for years.

    I used this fan in a college dorm without AC in the middle of GA, and it worked pretty well for the summer. Had it on for almost the entire school year, so it holds up well. It's kind of noisy, but it's a great fan.

    Karla N - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I want to like this fan because it does seem to circulate air in a stuffy room but when I turn on at night it’s way too loud. It seems to be the most common complaint on reviews. So if you’re looking for a quiet or soothing sound, this is not it. It does rattle which is not the best when trying to sleep.

    Loved the fan, liked how loud it was and how you could change the cute little bottom pieces out. It only lasted me about 5 months before it just stopped working though so I wouldn’t recommend.

    When the fan is on, it is circulating the air. This model has a pivoting head and swiveling body to ease in directing it as you would like. It does not oscillate.

    GREAT little fan! I needed this fella for night sweats to keep near the bed, welllll …. The power and air behind this fan exceeded what I was expecting! There’s 3 speeds, the cute interchangeable sheets add some flair for whatever room you’ll be putting this fan in. I’ve since bought 2 more, and keep one in my kitchen and bathroom… Plus, it’s a convenient size to take traveling

    I bought this fan in the early spring of 2023. It has seen daily use, almost constant, i don't leave it on when I'm gone. I like that the base of the fan comes with several different choices of color/patterned discs. You can pick your favorite, or you can easily use it as a template and make your own! As an artist, I thought that was pretty cool. This fan was a work horse this summer, on all the time, day and night. About 6 months in, it started making kind of weird sounds. 🤔 the handy person in me appreciates that this fan was very easy to take apart to clean. I'm big on cleaning my fans, at least once a year, and that's all this one needed. 10 screws and a nut/washer and you have it opened enough to clean it effectively. Please note that I disassembled only the hood and fan, I did NOT monkey with the motor housing. The fans are kind of spendy for their size, but after having taken it apart and cleaned it, I'm sold on this brand.

    I love this fan. My house gets warm at night, but I don’t want to overuse the air conditioning. This fan sits next to my bed, and the low setting (the only quiet setting) is sufficient to keep me cool. The design discs are a good idea but unnecessary. The white fan looks sophisticated and has a small footprint.
