Easy to clean, whisper quiet and backed by a 5-year limited warranty
Size:660 - Large | Color:Black Born of Vornado’s Whole Room Air Circulator heritage, the 660 represents the next generation of Vornado circulation. Immediately noticeable is the restyled exterior that features dramatic gloss and matte finishes, sleek lines, and a slightly smaller footprint than Vornado’s full-size circulators. The 660 fluidly tilts between horizontal and vertical airflow positions along a chrome glide. Maintaining the 660 is simple with a detachable grill that provides easy access to the blades for cleaning. The 660 features a 5-year warranty and is supported by Vornado’s industry-leading consumer service team.
As a proud owner of a Vornado 660 Whole Room Air Circulator, I wanted to see how the Vornado 460 Compact Whole Room Air Circulator compares. Especially compared to a similar sized and priced Honeywell Turbo Force Whole Room Air Circulator.First and foremost, the Vornado 460 is a bit smaller than the 660, moves air up to 70 ft (as opposed to the 660 which is 100 ft). While both have the chrome glide bar for full control of the airflow direction, the 460 has 3 airflow speeds and is switched by a mechanical knob versus the 660 which has five buttons (four speed + one to power on and off) on the top.The 460 works perfectly for small office or for the bedroom as it really delivers great air circulation for its size. I feel at its fastest speed, it pumps out better airflow than the Honeywell Turbo Force Whole Room Air Circulator which I use in my work office.Having used the Vornado 660 for the past few years, it’s still going strong and I would imagine that the Vornado 460 retains the same quality. Personally, I am very pleased because it’s good enough to fit on a desktop or table, or kept on the floor and keeping one cool. In fact, I’m typing my review while this Vornado 460 is circulating my home office.A big question for some people is whether or not they should go for the Vornado 660 or the Vornado 460. For the living room, definitely the 660 for its larger size and speed, but it’s important to mention that there is a misconception that one air circulator will make your room super cool. That’s not not going to happen! It helps to circulate airflow but it’s not a replacement for an air conditioner.If I had to do it all again, knowing now how well the 460 circulates air, if I had only $100 to spend, I would purchase two 460’s versus one 660.Reason being is that I thought the four-speed would make a big difference, but in the last two years, we only used three of the four speeds of the 660 and I could see myself having a much easier time cooling my living room by having two 460’s pointing on different corners, versus one 660. And getting two 460’s is nearly the same price as getting one 660.Don’t get me wrong, I love our Vornado 660, it’s larger and it really has great air circulation, but having used the 460 and for its price, I would get two 460’s if I only wanted to spend $100. I would position two in different areas of the living room and can easily leave one and utilize the other in another room.Otherwise, if you had $200 to spend, then you can spend and purchase two Vornado 660’s (or four Vornado 460’s).But overall, I was quite impressed by how well the air circulation was with the smaller Vornado 460. It’s more powerful than the Honeywell Turbo that I have in my office and I like that you can choose white or black versions.For the price and it’s great air circulation and compact size, the Vornado 460 Compact Whole Room Air Circulator is recommended!
In my room ( the man cave) I have a custom build PC, PS3, XBOX 360, and a 40” Samsung TV. Now as you can imagine, all these things turning on together and staying on tend to build up quite a bit of heat, enough to make me sweat. I dealt with this for a while cause my brother wouldn’t be playing the consoles a lot back then, but now he plays for literally the same amount of time I’m on the PC…4 hours or so.One day I said enough is enough! I didn’t like sweating in my own room after a long day, so I decided to buy a fan. I went through a few pages before getting to the Vornado. What actually drew me here was the price, it was much higher then all the other fans I had looked at. So the question came to mind….is it really that good?Unfortunately, fan reviews are not easy to come by, which is understandable. So I just did some research on what made a Vornado so special from other fans. This fan actually circulates the air in your room and it feels like a light breeze all over your room. It brought down the temperature in my room by about 3 degrees, but on top of that it’s a constant breeze that cools you off, so it feels even better then what the thermal reads.Because of the way this circulates air, I actually had to not use my ceiling fan so it would not disrupt the circulation process. This fan blows out a TON more air then any fan I have ever had before. forewarning though, please be advised that it circulates air, that means it will not do it’s job if it’s pointed directly at you, it has to be pointing to some top corner of the room to move the air round properly.As far as the settings go, 1=Literally no sound at all, 2=Still pretty quite, 3=Now you might want to put a few notches up on your TV, 4= sounds like a normal fan now, it’s not super loud, but enough to notice a fan is on somewhere.As a suggestion I would get this fan above all the other Vornado whole room fans. Because what this fan can do on setting 2 and 3 is the high setting for the lower priced models and I like having the choice to go up or down to what I need. Now there is another model called 733, know that the 660 ( this one) is a lot better at energy conserving and can blow more amount of air at a quieter level.
Works as described! I’m glad I bought the small one. It cools the small room in the house. The noise isn’t too loud. Wish it was softer, but I wouldn’t dock a star for it
Works very well in helping to keep the air circulating
Super powerful. Quiet enough. Plastic housing was stronger in older models. Older versions of this fan also used to be on a short pedestal - now it’s mounted on a metal brace…
The best fan we own. Quieter than others. I like the focused air stream…it creates a stronger breeze in a more narrow channel.
Name speaks for itself. Vornado is a great quality manufacturer. The only thing I don’t like about this fan is the way the air flows out.
Really great fan!
Wow - what a great fan. It really puts out the air.The thing I really noticed when I pulled it from the box was the feeling that this is a well built and sturdy…
Currently riding out a heat wave in my “luxury highrise condo” in San Francisco with those tiny tiny windows that don’t ventilate very well, and also NO air conditioning.
Totally awesome
