VFAN

Love this fan. It’s so pretty and circulates the air well. It is easy to use and is beautiful green. I am happy to have it since our condo building is without air conditioning right now. The fan is easy to use and came that way right out of the box. It is sturdy and reliable.

Incredibly well built and solid fan! The lower speed is whisper quiet. I easily sleep through the night with it on. The higher speed is impressively powerful…louder, but not terrible. I expect this fan to last a lifetime.

Just purchased but so far really liking this fan! Looks great. Very sturdy. Cools the room. Nice fan sound.

I purchased the Vornado Vfan Vintage in white and it is the best fan I have ever owned !! I have window ac units installed to help combat this summer heat but I needed something to help circulate the air in my home office. Heat plays havoc with my electronics and not to mention I need some fresh air circulating so I knew I wanted to buy a fan. I correctly have 2 plastic fans one located in my bedroom and another in the hallway I am trying to create a breezeway affect to help the cool air where my ac unit in my bedroom to make it down the hallway into my home office. My biggest complaint about the plastic fans I have is how loud they are when they are in operation. It seriously drowns out the tv when they are both on and I have to turn up the volume so loud you would think I have a hearing issue. I knew I needed something that was quiet while in operation and I came across the Vornado Vintage fan and I just had to have it. I purchased the larger Vornado fan that has the 3 settings on the back. It is very stylish in appearance, well made it isn't those cheap plastic parts its actual metal, and all I had to do right out of the box was plug it in and turn it on. Did I mention it is QUIET, it does not rattle, or make a loud buzzing sound when I have it on either of the 3 settings which is huge since I have several conference calls through out my day. I do agree that the fan in comparison to other models is a little more expensive but it is the best money I have ever spent on a fan due to the fact that I can hear and carry on a conversation while it is in operation. When I conduct a conference call I have to turn my window ac off but my tornado fan always stays on. It also adds to the decor in my home it is so stylish. In the video you can hear my portable ac turn on I turned it off and then all you hear is the fan in operation.

Love everything about this fan -- the amount of wind it supplies, the retro styling, the size. Perfect for our little upstairs room.

I didn’t want a pure white fan. This was sold as an antique white fan. For some reason. It just doesn’t appear so to me. It’s fine though and we’re keeping it. We’ve owned a Vornado Vfan for probably seven years and it still works just fine. These are very powerful little fans for their size. That’s how good they are! If I could, I’d have one of every color in my house. That’s how aesthetically pleasing they are. Although they seem pricey, they are metal and constructed very well. If you want a fan that will last, the Vornado is the way to go. Attractive and functional.

Nice. So pretty. Vintage look. Powerful air mover and not very loud at all. So happy with my purchase

I NEVER write reviews but I'm so happy about this purchase that I had to share because it took me so long and so many returns to find something that works! I finally purchased this fan after reading the reviews. Not only did this have great reviews on Amazon but on the Target website this fan has 5 out of 5 stars which is what initially caught my eye. So naturally I decided to check it out on Amazon and decided to order it. I live in CA Bay Area and this summer has been getting over 100. My house doesn't have AC so I've been using a few fans (swamp fan & Honeywell powercool fan) but neither of them circulate the airflow leaving the house still extremely hot where the fans aren't pointing toward even when it has cooled down outside. I purchased this fan and set it in front of the widow in my living room along with one of my old fans on the opposite end of the room and within 15 minutes the room was cooler. I could feel the airflow from the vornado from across the room. It seriously does its job as described! I also could feel the airflow from the living room coming down my hallway to the bedrooms. The reviews were right and I'm extremely happy I made this purchase. I have a swamp cooler fan that you put ice in and it doesn't even compare to the airflow the vornado provides! It's pricey but well worth the money. I spent over $200 on my other two worthless fans when I could of purchased two of these that work wonders. The extra perk is that this fan is made of metsl and has a nice vintage look. I bought the cream one to match mybdecor. I would highly reccomend this fan to anyone!

Lovely looking and solid but fused straight away on UK voltage and has a 2 prong plug - the tiny fuses aren't readily available in the UK

Lo recomiendo mucho. Me daban miedo las reseñas que mencionaban un ruido pero nada de eso. Le hemos dado un uso muy rudo y no ha fallado en nada. Además el diseño y construcción impecables. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. Compré el modelo mediano y es más que suficiente para ventilar una habitación mediana.

I love items that are visually appealing as well as functional and my Vornado VFAN Vintage certainly provides both. Yeah it’s more expensive than some fans, but you get what you pay for and this little baby is built like a tank. Well made, gorgeous and it runs like a charm. I use it every night even in the winter to circulate the air in my bedroom as well as to provide sleep inducing white noise. I’m very glad I splurged on a Vornado.

ONE YEAR LATER: still in love with every single unit we have purchased. Still running essentially silently, and been operating almost daily for a full year. We now have multiple versions, in all we have purchased 5 Vornado products, absolutely no regrets. I originally purchased the Vornado 660 room circulator as it is less costly; I love it, so much so that I sent one to my parents, who also love it...but I could not get this one out of my mind. When I went to order yet another, the 660 was out of stock, so I decided to bite the bullet, pay the extra, and ordered this beauty. OF NOTE: I mistakenly ordered the "medium" version; there is a Jr. that is smaller and a Sr. that is larger; this "medium" one is just called "Vintage", so a bit confusing. I have absolutely fallen in love with the Vintage line for its looks, versatility and metal construction; so much so that I immediately sent this medium sized air circulator to my parents for their bedroom! They were carting the 660 from the living room to the bedroom where they had to use a book to prop up the 660 so it would blow "down" from their dresser. One advantage of the Vintage VFAN line is that the fan housing fully rotates from pointing straight down to straight up; the 660 only goes from straight ahead to a steep upward angle and does not offer the flexibility that this one does. Please keep in mind, this is not a fan in the regular sense; it is a room air circulator - it creates a gentle breeze throughout the room, not unlike a ceiling fan, and is the absolute perfect solution if a quality ceiling fan is not an option. IF you want a fan that throws a heavy stream of air at you, then you want a fan, not an air circulator. If you want a fan that will cool the room, with a constant gentle breeze, you have found the right unit. SOUND: on high it is literally whisper quiet; we did not even have to adjust the TV volume and it sits between us and the TV. On low or med it is utterly silent. Plus the "noise" is constant and steady, with no ebbs and flows, ups or downs; squeaks, squeals or rattles. IF you are seeking a white noise machine, or want it in the bedroom to mask noise, this is NOT the fan for you. AIRFLOW: suitable for a 200 sq ft room or a 10x20 foot room, and is listed at a CFM (cubic feet per minute) of 295. That is the equivalent of taking a cube that measures 6.5 feet high, 6.5 feet long and 6.5 feet wide and pushing it through this fan, every single minute. SIZE: The unit stands about 14 inches high, 8 inches deep, and 12 inches wide. The grill area is about 8 inches. The Vintage VFAN is rated at a lower CFM (295 vs 584) than the 660; and is technically not quieter (57 vs 54 decibels on high). In actuality I find it MUCH quieter, so much so that when they are placed 20 feet apart, I can still hear the 660, when beside the Vintage SR (both on high) but when I move just five feet closer to the 660, I can no longer hear the Vintage. As to air flow, the 660 moves more air - but the next size up, the Vintage Sr. moves more than the 660 (613 vs 584). COLOR: The green is slightly deeper than is pictured, less of a mint cast, perhaps a nod to avocado, but definitely not nearly as "deep" or yellow a green as avocado. DIFFERENCES: The 660 is made of plastic (albeit very sturdy plastic), and does not fully rotate; it is also much more economical (although still very pricey), very quiet, has four (soft touch, 1cm buttons) speed settings on the rim and moves twice the air of the medium in the Vintage line, on high. It comes in multiple sizes: 460, 560 and 660. The Vintage VFAN Line is all metal construction (excluding the blades), fully rotates from face down on the floor to face up to the ceiling; it is quite pricey, super quiet (Sr. 53db, VFAN 57db, Jr. 44db vs 660 at 54 db) and has a mechanical twist knob on the rear that offers two (Jr.) or three (VFAN or Sr.) speeds. The Sr. is technically quieter than the 660, and has a higher CFM at 613; the Jr. has a top CFM of 185. Now as to looks, I am in love with the vintage look and do prefer it to the 660. In hindsight, I accidentally ordered the medium size, and not the Sr., my bad. So no, it will not push more air than the 660, even though it is around the same cost as the 660. I WILL attest that it is quieter than 660, although that IS contrary to the manufacturers specifications. Is it pricey, heck yes! Is it lovely to look at, quiet to operate and moves a whack of air, 100%, YES. If you are seeking a silent unit that will create a gentle breeze, cooling an entire room, that is incredibly efficient and beautiful, I highly recommend this unit (and the 660 for that matter), but you have to understand you are paying a high price for high quality.

After a week of use, on 25th June, it overheated and stopped working. I wasted time communicating with Vornado, as it is guaranteed for 5 years, got nowhere, by which time my 30 day return window had expired. The device is faulty, doesn’t work, is not fit for purpose. I want a refund, have messaged Amazon, but dead silence so far. DO NOT BUY A VORNADO VFAN FROM AMAZON! P.S. I ordered retro green, but white was delivered, which I kept.
