These fans are great! I originally got these to use in my indoor greenhouse and they worked perfectly but now that I’m working from home, I wanted a desk that was quiet but still packed a punch. This fan is extremely powerful while being almost completely silent. I love the sleek design and the ability to close it when you’re not using it. This thing is a beautiful powerhouse!

This is truly a great investment for my office. I love that it's not huge or bulky, but you still have the same effect as a full-size fan. It's very durable and efficient. I have had this fan for over two years. It still blows as the day I started using it. The air flows extremely well, and the noise is very minimal.

Almost no air circulation

Complete waste of money. I've bought Vornado fans in the past, I use and like 3 of them. I've come to think of Vornado fans as nice strong air circulation with a good amount of settings. I wanted this little one to use when the larger ones aren't needed, to set on the dresser, desk or kitchen counter. I like the design and the look of this useless thing. As others have said, the controls are at the bottom and you need two hands to turn it on, change the setting or turn it off. There isn't much difference between on and off from more than a few feet away. It has 2 speeds, low and lower. The low speed gives almost no air circulation, can barely feel it even when only a foot away. The higher speed only gives off a slight amount of breeze, not enough to feel from more ... MoreComplete waste of money. I've bought Vornado fans in the past, I use and like 3 of them.

It's noisy for the small amount of air it generates. Very disappointed with Vornado and this useless little fan. Hoping to return it without having to pay shipping.

Disappointed

I don’t know if mine is broken or if this is really how it’s made. This puts out practically no air. The low setting doesn’t even blow air period. The second setting is loud but again, not much air. I’m a big Vornado fan but this was so disappointing.

Disappointed and Confused: Marketing Issue

Dear Vornado air,I would have went about this issue privately, but i wasn't too sure if the email provided on this website was checked by an artificial intelligence or not. I purchased this lovely little fan at Target this afternoon. It looked cute and compact in size, and quite useful for the price. Although; I came across one issue. While checking out the box when I got home, I noticed it said how it oscillates, I was rather thrilled with this feature. As I read further into the manual, it stated how the oscillating was not for this model, but for the V8. Now, tell me why would you go ahead and do that; stating the features of the higher model, right in the manual too. Jeez, what was the reason? Was it for advertising, because that just doesn't make sense, I ... MoreDear Vornado air,I would have went about this issue privately, but i wasn't too sure if the email provided on this website was checked by an artificial intelligence or not.

Was it for advertising, because that just doesn't make sense, I already bought your product. isn't that enough? Isn't it? Now I'm sitting here, in my room trying to cool off with this loud little fan, and its not even oscillating. Also nice try buddy, but I am not buying the higher model :/

I bought 10 of these... and they all came beat up

Home Depot shipped all 10 separately, in their original packaging box. Some they put a polybag over, some they put the label right on the box. They came to my house water logged from rain, and every box was beat up looking. These are gifts to family. I can't wait to tell them why the boxes look so bad... there's 10 people who wont buy from HomeDepot for gifts, that's for sure. While customer service was nice about the issue, it took half an hour to get one on the phone. He didn't sound like he was local, either.

Sleek/professional design, but not professional noise

I purchased this fan to take to my office for work. We have an open office floor plan, and noise level of the device is important. Appearance-wise, I love this fan. It's sleek and compact. I would not mind leaving it out on my desk. It will look nice on my desk.Function: Fan folds into compact mode easily. Disappointingly, there appears to be no way to clean the fan internally to remove dust. There are two speed settings, low & high. There should be a middle setting due to the speed difference between them.Performance: By the noise level alone, I cannot take this fan to work! It makes a loud whirring sound from the motor, on top of the actual fan blade sounds. I have large standing fans, and even small floor fans, that make half the noise of this fan on "Low" ... MoreI purchased this fan to take to my office for work.

The High setting sounds like a hair dryer, as other people mentioned! I would be complained to by my coworkers if I try using this in the office. The airflow is decent for its size on either setting, and can handle being put maybe 2-3 ft away reasonably if you're hot.I decided to give this fan a chance based on positive reviews, even with some negative reviews. Unfortunately, I have to agree with negative reviews. I was looking forward to owning it since it looked so nice. First time customer to this brand.

Stylish, quiet, weak

I got this for work as my desk is in a warehouse setting and I needed something small enough to fit on my desk without taking up too much space. In the warehouse, I'm subject to all the heat and humidity that the summertime has to offer. This fan is not good at all for this setting.It's a neat looking little fan, and I like the pivoting feature to 'potentially' put air where I want it. It's very quiet, too, but at the cost of performance. This little fan barely works. It literally has the power of an internal fan in a PC or server, and that's on the high setting. Less than 2 feet away from my face an I can barely tell it's even on. It shouldn't even have a low setting because on that setting you can't feel any air movement more than a couple of inches away from ... MoreI got this for work as my desk is in a warehouse setting and I needed something small enough to fit on my desk without taking up too much space.

I prefer function over appearance and this fan fails miserably in that department.This fan is little more than an electric paperweight. It's like having a Ferrari in your driveway, but with a blown engine. It looks pretty, but is just expensive lawn art. This fan wasn't a bank breaker, but for the price I could've bought 2 more powerful clip-on desk fans. Maybe if I worked in a nice air conditioned office this fan would work better, but if I worked in an air conditioned office I probably wouldn't need a fan.

[Rewarded Review] Decent

Its smaller then I expected & not quite the color I imagined bit its nice. I use it at work on my desk. The second setting blows a decent amout of air to cool you without bring too loud. The entire blue part of the fan can also swivel from left to right. I dont like the power toggle thing being located where it is bit it isnt a deal breaker.

cute, but WEAK!!!

Small footprint is a plus, as I intended to use it in my LITTLE kitchen. Plugged it in, and turned it on, only two settings, they call them hi and lo, I call it WEAK and WEAKER! BARELY felt the air 3 inches away. Wanted to love this, but isn't happening, so back to the store it goes. Three stars for ease of use, because, plug in, turn to "weak" or "weaker" and tilt fan to direct (haha) airflow.
