Product Reviews

Good quality, just be sure it’s a good fit for your setup

Beyond having the most awesome name ever (a cross between a vortex and a tornado??), this fan is pretty nice. My wife told me that the women at her work (in a dental office) use these fans on a daily basis. It helps to keep them cool while not being too loud or overpowering for the patients.It was smaller than I expected; having looked at the photos rather than the dimensions. Because of this, I’m posting a picture of it next to a pop/soda can; hopefully that will give you a good visual scale. Small isn’t necessarily bad because small may very well be what you are looking for. It is a desk fan, after all, and on a desk it is just the right size. Quiet enough to not drown out phone conversations, yet strong enough to provide a decent breeze.Speaking of breeze, the fan has two speeds. (1) Slow (very slow), which is perfect if it is sitting right next to you on a desk (and you want to mitigate noise), and (2) Fast, which is really a medium speed. I could feel the air pushed toward me comfortably at about 8 feet away. Any further showed cutting limits on airflow; the right proximity is everything.The fan noise on the top speed is soothing; good for falling asleep to. But might be too loud for some situations; such as in an office cubicle where your neighbor does not want to hear the fan at all.My only real complaint with this fan is the limited positioning rotation. It works well if you are level with it, or if it is below you. However, if you want to place it on a dresser and point it down toward your bed, look elsewhere. This fan is designed to be compact and fold up nicely, but the foldable stand limits any forward tilt. This makes sense as, if you look at the picture, a forward tilt with that stand would cause the weight to be unbalanced and the fan to fall over.Overall, this is a nice compact solution. Soft fan noise, decent air cutting, and good quality build. Perfect for close quarters, but limited on forward tilt. Depending on your setup, this would either be the best of fans or just a poor fit. It all depends on how you want to use it.

Nice small, portable fan but not loud enough for my needs

I like this fan for the fact that it is nice and small and perfect for travel. However, as a professional triathlete I am always trying to get sleep in hotels on Saturday nights the night before races. Lots of times other are loud so I need a loud fan to drawn out the sounds. This fan doesn’t do that. It just isn’t loud enough for that.I realize that loud sound might not be a feature everyone is looking for but if you are you might want to look somewhere else.

Almost perfect travel fan

I bought this to replace a folding fan I use when traveling that was lost.Pros: This is a much better fan than the one I had. It is well constructed and has 2 speeds. The high speed is the perfect noise level to sleep. It is just loud enough to mute all of the unfamiliar noises at a hotel but not deafening. The little legs are sturdier than they look in the picture and fold back flat against the fan for storage. It is compact enough to sit on a window sill. I want it mostly for the background noise but it would be effective for air movement in a small space like a work table or desk. The price was higher than I really wanted to pay but I expect this to last a long time.Cons: The size and weight descriptions given by Amazon are correct so this is really on me. It is heavier than you would expect and larger than I really want to put in a carry on. I would hesitate to put it in a checked bag because it is a really nice item and could be stolen and would be expensive to replace if your luggage was lost (like mine).I will take this with me on road trips where size and weight of luggage isn’t an issue but will continue to search for the perfect travel fan.

there is a very annoying random low frequency “thrumming” typical of low quality

To me, the sound of air movement is fairly loud on high. I could almost tolerate the sound on low for sleeping, but unfortunately, there is a very annoying random low frequency “thrumming” typical of low quality, out of balance blades. I also bought Vornado’s vintage fan…similar issues. My opinion: Great designs but quality (for price) lacking. I suspect the better days of this company are behind. Sad.

I travel with a fan, not just for moving air, but also for the noise it makes to sleep by. This is a perfectly portable fan. It is not too thick as to take up a lot of suitcase room and also the base folds up to pack easily. It has 2 speeds and makes a nice light noise and will move the air. I have bought 2 so far and will probably buy a third. It also makes a good gift for people who travel. It might be a few ounces heavier than you would expect but it is a Vornado and has the power to move the air in this small fan.

Great fan for Daughters Room

This is a very nice and small little fan. We put it in our daughters room and run it on the table next to her bed. She likes it because of the color and I like it because it provides some white noise for her as she sleeps. It’s not as loud as other fans we have in the house, but just enough. I wouldn’t hesitate to put this on a desk at work or somewhere else (though I would personally get a different color for myself). It seems to be pretty well made and folds nicely.

One of my favorite purchases.

A lifesaver for those that love to travel with a fan but need a small space fan for their luggage. This fan folds down so it doesn’t take much space and works great as you would expect a vornado to.

Good fan. I expected it to be more powerful …

Good fan. I expected it to be more powerful being Vornado brand, however it works well to circulate air throughout the room and feels powerful when you are up close to it.

Great air flow

Really nice fan!! Only one small complaint, it does not tip downward more, I have to prop up the back in order for it to hit just the right spot.

Five Stars

Nice little fan for the price.

great airflow but only tilts upwards

great airflow+ compact. stand folds behind the fan for easy fit into luggage.+ low setting sounds like a strong breeze+ high setting sounds like a muted…
