Pros

It is so quiet that you can forget it's on. It is super silent too. Will serve both white noise and sleeping air comfort for my sleeping.

Bought this for my office at home. Perfect for my 2nd bedroom. It fit my space perfectly, even though i consider it on the smaller end of the spectrum. On the headboard or desktop it is perfect.

They are beautiful and smooth, but i needed a workhorse that didn’t require oil every week. It appears if you pay through the teeth, the quality far exceeds the lower models you find in target. This one has an improved switch and is just * looking.



Cons

The compact gunmetal vornado petite alchemy vintage fan is a resounding disappointment. On its highest setting, it barely produces enough air flow to cool you off and does not merit the $80+ price tag.

Do not be fooled. Honestly, it looks cheap. Not a product that is worthy of the exspensive price tag.

Fan rattles horribly on all settings. It makes an audible buzzing noise but the fan does not rotate.

What looks like elegant anodized finish “copper accents” in the photos is actually spray painted glittery brown paint with a tacky looking glossy coat. The finish is not copper like in the description.

Price

A good price for a very nice looking fan that performs beautifully.


It’s pricey, but i really like it.


I hesitated for a bit because of the price, but i finally caved.

Shipping


No complaints, i didn't have any damage or issues upon arrival.

Packaging/appearance


Even the instruction manual and packaging is beautiful.


Arrived very well packaged and in perfect condition.


Even the packaging is deluxe (including a drawstring dust cover).


The box reads, "we expect all of our products to be perfect.

Competitiveness


Also longer lasting than other fans i've tried that i've had to replace every seasono, so worth the price.


Vornado makes the best table fans, and they are worth the price.


However, when it comes to its performance, i can't help but draw comparisons to more budget-friendly $30 fans.


It's fairly expensive, compared with the plastic fans that vornado and others make, but it's lovely, quiet and effective, so if...  Read More
