Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It’s very versatile. Toddler friendly- (front grill has small openings that resist curious fingers)*great 5 year satisfaction guarantee.

The cord storage also helps when keeping it nice and neat when transporting it. It is very portable, something that one could bring to a small office or porch and bring home.

It's easy to overlook that the fan is intended to expand, both in front and back. There are two silicone-y membranes that pull open and smush to flatten. More silicone is found on the expandable sides.

The fan sits in my windowsill very nicely to blow in the cooler air at night. I am a speech therapist in a school so at least we aren't there in the hottest months of the year. I use that one to help my in-window air conditioner move air around my bed...  Read More

The instructions are clear and detailed---something very lacking in many products lately! It's kind of a downer, but i still really like this fan. For further information, the latest version of the owner’s manual can be found at vornado dot c.



Cons

However, it is overpriced and underpowered. I have a $20 honeywell fan that moves more air than this.

You can wedge a rolled up sock or something underneath but as expensive as it is, it's not worth it. Secondly, it is quite heavy and bulky for its intended purpose. A bit too large to travel with conveniently.

Vornado is a great company but the engineers pooped the bed on this one. What a disappointment. It's frustrating because a few tweaks could make this an awesome product.

Quality


Nice product works well very powerful fan perfect size for traveling fit in suitcase nicely light weight would recommend


It is sturdy and stays up well on my shelf or desk.


The instructions are clear and detailed---something very lacking in many products lately!


The two speeds do not offer enough options and high didn’t blow very well.

Price


For the high price tag, i thought it could be a bit more powerful.

Shipping


Then i packed it for my trip to a time-share for a week.

Packaging/appearance


Light weight and easy to pack into a suit case.


The box is 11" by 9" by 6", so this is basically the size the product folds into.


But all in all it does make packing it much easier than your typical fan.


If you very specifically need a fan which can be collapsible to save storage or packing space, sure, it's ok.

Competitiveness


I give it a 4 instead of 5 because vornado has lost quality after it moved from the us to china manufacture.


We had another vornado that took up a lot of space in the luggage.


Will buy another for a gift, alittle pricey but vornado is the best.
