Vornado783 Full-Size Whole Room Air Circulator Fan, Adjustable Height, 3 Speeds, Tilt Head, Removable Grill, Moves Air 100 Feet, Pedestal Fan for Home, Office, Bedroom, Black

This Vornado fan is powerful and I cannot recommend it enough. I switched from tower fans to this one and do not regret it even though no remote control comes with it. I live in hot, humid Florida and needed a fan with more oomph.

Functionality: The airflow is fully adjustable from mild breeze to full output, with a variable speed dial at the rear of the fan housing. Stand assembly is simple (2 hex bolts with wrench included), with an option to omit a segment if full height not needed. The weight of the product is not excessive. With a ten-year warranty, the build quality is obviously superb. Stability of the fan on various types of flooring is not an issue, the base forms a wide stance. No remote control function is available, but that could be changed with attaching a third-party switch on the power cord. Thorough cleaning of the fan body is simple, the fan housing grill clips easily detach with assistance of a flat-head screwdriver, and the blade is totally removable. I am very happy with the purchase, and would recommend. The only downside I noted is the sound volume at full fan speed, but this is somewhat expected with the high volume of air being moved.

This fan keeps my room very cool on low setting.

Vornado is the Best on the market in my opinion for the price

I didn't understand the manufacturer's descriptions of how this fan circulates air around a room. After using it just one week, however, I'm completely sold on this product. My wife and I have used this fan in our living room (a very large room) and in our bedroom, and found that it moved large volumes of air very gently. We've been able to reduce our AC usage somewhat by using this fan instead of our ceiling fans (summers in Jacksonville, FL get pretty warm).The only thing that I didn't like much about this product was the base. I don't mind the curved tubing, but they give you 4 rubber O-rings that you slide around the base tube. If you're not careful, you'll cause the rings to move around and slide off the end.O-rings just aren't meant for this kind of application, and the O-rings on my unit are already beginning to wear through. I think the manufacturer could have done a better job of installing rubber feet on this device.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------I purchased this unit June 23, 2013, and writing this end-of-life update May 6, 2017.I can't say enough about how much I like the way this fan moves air around. It has seen nearly daily use for 4 years, and the fan motor is still going as strong as the day it arrived. The snap-in design for the blade cover made it easy to remove and clean the cover, blades, and interior portion of the housing. Sadly, the stand and fan housing weren't quite as durable. I stand by my initial thoughts regarding the O-rings on the base. We moved this fan around the house as needed, and the O-rings eventually just wore out. They slipped off from time to time as well. I replaced them once, but the cost of O-rings this size just isn't worth it, so when the replacements wore out, I chose not to replace them again. Not a problem on carpeted surfaces, but on concrete, tile, or wood floors the fan became noisier and would move around.The stand itself became problematic after a while. After picking up the fan to move it so many times, the screws that held the tubes together loosened and fell out. The precarious balance of the unit also contributed to the tubes deforming where they join, and this caused the stand to become somewhat wobbly, contributing to the screws falling out. The fan and housing are almost too heavy for the lightweight metal used for the base, and over time the top-heavy nature of the unit takes its toll. I replaced the screws several times, but the replacements would always loosen and fall out too. I eventually took the 'big hammer' approach, and applied epoxy to the joints. The epoxy effectively ended all issues with the stand.The final issue - and the reason we've reached this fan's end of life - is the overall design. The base is somewhat narrow, and VERY light. The fan at the top is very heavy in relation to the base. The combination creates a precarious balance, and when the fan is bumped, it will fall over more easily than it should. Consumer floor fans of every design fall over from time to time; they just do. But when this one falls over, all the impact forces are concentrated into the part of the housing that touches down first, with various destructive effects. The first piece to go was the plastic around where the cord went through the housing to the motor. I still can't figure out how that broke off, but it did, leaving a fairly large opening into the motor area. Next, one of the clips that hold the front cover on broke off. Then a second one broke off. Then more pieces of the housing around the motor. With this last fall, the final clip broke off AND the switch on the back shattered into three pieces (on a carpeted surface too!), leaving the fan unusable. Don't misunderstand, the fan itself still runs like a champion, but with the switch gone, nothing holding the blade cover in place, and pieces of the motor housing missing, I simply can't trust that the unit is safe to use any longer.In summary, the Vornado fan is the best fan I've owned, and I'll replace this one with another Vornado. However, the design of the stand led to the premature breakdown and demise of this unit. I wouldn't consider purchasing this particular model again; I'll stick with an upright floor model that has a much sturdier base, or just model without a stand at all.

Just amazing I’ve been using Vornado fans for over 20 years and they are amazing. They work well and for a long, long, long, time.

The media could not be loaded. I recently purchased the Vornado Circulating Fan and I have been extremely impressed with its performance. Several pros make this fan stand out from others in the market.Firstly, the fan can circulate a large amount of air in a room without blowing it in a concentrated direction. This is perfect for those who want to cool down a room without feeling a strong gust of air on them. Additionally, the fan is very energy efficient, using only 60W at maximum power and less than 5W at the lowest power. This is a huge plus for me as I always try to be mindful of my energy consumption.Another pro of this fan is its sleek and modern design. The white finish blends well with my home decor and it does not look out of place. I also appreciate how lightweight and easy it is to transport around the house, making it convenient to use in any room. The fan is also well-built and sturdy, ensuring that it will last for years to come.However, there are a few cons to note. The fan can be quite noisy at maximum speed. However, I have found that it quickly drops to a lower sound level when not on max speed. Additionally, while the fan is great for circulating air, it does not blow a concentrated gust in one direction like a blower fan. Lastly, the price of this fan may be a bit steep for some at $165 + tax. There are other Vornado fans with similar performance at a lower cost.In conclusion, I purchased this fan specifically for its great air circulation and energy efficiency. The noise level is not a concern for me as it only runs for an hour at a time. The stylish design and energy efficiency were my top priorities and this fan has exceeded my expectations. I have been a fan of Vornado for years and this fan has only solidified my trust in their brand. I would highly recommend this fan to others, especially if energy efficiency is a priority.
