660 Large Whole Room Air Circulator Fan with 4 Speeds and 90-Degree Tilt, 660-Large, White

This is a fantastic fan and I recommend this purchase. I live in a hot and humid climate with exceptionally expensive electric rates, so I tend to rely on fans more than air conditioning. I have gone through seven fans in the past two years, all name brand. I purchased two off-brand metal bladed fans a year ago and those are great except they are very loud and are dangerous with small curious children in the house. This led me to Vornado. Here are my points to consider: Pros: Reasonably quiet, even at the highest setting. REALLY moves air. My living room is 22' across and it has no trouble directing air that far. Size--this is a very small fan in comparison to the other fans I've owned (box, pedestal, floor, table), yet it does a better job. Appearance--looks pretty, and isn't an eyesore like other fans Safety--my 1.5-year old has failed in her attempts to shove her fingers through the grill. I'm sure she could if she tried harder, but it wouldn't be easy. Efficiency--I've been without power for two months now (thanks, typhoon) and rely on a power inverter. With this plugged in, it uses 50w at the highest setting. That's compared to my pedestal fan that uses 75w at the lowest setting. Cons: Price--this is not cheap! I purchased this 'repackaged' from Amazon and it saved me $15 from anywhere else I could find online. Buttons--I think the shiny buttons are meant to attract small children, and it does that very well. Though, I don't know where else the buttons could be and still be convenient for adults to adjust. Unless it was a classic dial adjustment. Speed settings--level 3 and 4 are really the only speeds I've used and I can't imagine using anything less...the lower two levels just seem a little useless. But maybe if I didn't live in the tropics, the lower settings might be useful for a whisper of air movement here or there. Lastly, I wanted to address a couple of things I read in reviews. First, this fan CAN be used to direct air at you, as you would a normal fan. It does a very good job at that, in fact. It's just not maximizing the fan's potential as a whole room air circulator if you choose to aim it at yourself for cooling. Secondly, this fan is not hard at all to adjust. I'm not sure what people are attempting to do in terms of angle adjustment, but you simply slide it and it's done. And no--it does not slide out of position on it's own. I'm not kidding, it's very simple and effective. I chose the 660 versus other models based on reviews citing efficiency, and also because it looks nicer than similar models. I am happy with this purchase, it's better than I expected it to be, and I'll be buying two more for the rest of my house...as my budget allows. Update: here I am YEARS later and this is going as strong as day one. The only way you can tell it’s so old is that the white plastic has completely yellowed. Buy the black! But still buy this fan!

The Vornado 660 beats the pants off any "regular" fan. In fact - the Vornado 660 is the best fan I ever owned. Has built-in easily adjustable tilt (all the way straight up toward the ceiling if need be). Nice! Indeed - a very nice fan. It works/circulates air as advertised. We have it placed in our (800 sq ft Apt) Living Room with the air bouncing down the long hallway toward the 2 bedrooms and bathroom. I placed the 660 on a small table next to the hallway at an upward angle and blowing directly at the hall wall. In that manner - it bounces the air back and forth all the way down the hallway walls which helps carry the cool air from the living room air conditioner back to the farthest bedroom. When winter arrives it will no doubt be very helpful in circulating the heat throughout also. 4 speeds. If you're looking for total silence - forget it. It is kind of noisy on the high setting. However - on low it's pretty quite - except for us the low speed won't carry the air to where we want it. Maybe sometime in the future I'll buy another one strictly for the bedroom if the price comes down quite a bit. I'd feel MUCH more comfortable paying $49 for it than what I bought the first one at. Bought the black color Vornado 660 and it blends in very well with our color scheme. Also it is an attractive piece - not gaudy looking like a "regular box or circular" fan. The 660 fits right in with everything else. When I bought the 660 I also bought the Vornado 133 Small Air Circulator for one of the bedrooms (don't waste your money. Bad air flow. Only 2 speeds). AND the 133 had a VERY STRONG plastic smell when turned on the very first time. Sent it back to Amazon for a fast refund). The Vornado 660 has no hint of plastic smell whatsoever when running. The Vornado 660 is a really nice fan - albeit IMHO it's a bit over priced - BUT - I'm very happy with it. Other than being over priced - I doubt you'll be disappointed with how it looks, operates and circulates air all around - unlike regular fans - it's a real winner.

This has been the very best fan I've ever had. I really mean that and I've tried just about every configuration available. As one reviewer put it, they got rid of their ceiling fan for this, he was right! This little compact unit does it all! It's got 4-speeds (more than most fans) and when I'm really hot, I turn it on high and it almost feels like air conditioning. Actually, I have air conditioning and when placed near my room vent, it makes it feel like ultimate luxury. I wish I could afford one for every room in my house! Instead, I move this whenever I go...kitchen, living room, and bedroom. I l-o-v-e it. The control are one top and super easy to find and learn and get to in the dark. It's compact, yet super powerful! And no obnoxious power lights to drive me crazy at night. Pure and simple, effective...the best!!! It provides a little white noise on high. My significant other hates it, but I love it! It's a low hum...not at all high pitch or obnoxious. It's soothing to me and on low or medium you hardly know it's on. With a footprint of 11 inch x 11inch and 12 inch x 14 inch head space, this unit is a nice compact size vs. power ratio. The price at time of my review is $100 on Amazon where I purchased (with free shipping) vs $150 retail listed on Amazon. Best Buy also sells it for $100. Vornado's website has it for $110, so I think Amazon's $150 is slightly over exaggerated. I love this fan. Please post any questions you have and I will responded as quickly as I can. Thanks reading and commenting on my review :) *************************

Excellent. Delivered on time

nowhere did it state it wasn't compatible with European wall outlets.

Bought a 660 to help circulate air in an upstairs/converted attic. Performs admirably. It will take some trial and error to find the best position and speed. PROS Pushes a heck of a lot of air. Absolutely ridiculous amounts on max. Seriously. I can't stress that enough. I put it by my backdoor, down a hallway and instantly felt the air on the other side of the house right after turning it on. 4 speeds. Barely audible on speed 1. Speed 2 a bit louder, but its mainly just airflow noise. Tilts effortlessly up to 90 degrees (pointing straight up) Doesn't take up much floor space. It's actually much smaller than my tabletop fan. Blows much more air on speed 2 than my tabletop fan does on it's max speed and is less audible. Pairs well with my air conditioner to push air to the other side of the house. Beeps when turning on or changing speeds. But it's a quiet beep. My air conditioner on the other hand is almost comically loud. CONS Power cable is a bit too short in my opinion. I think it's about 6 feet long or so. 10 or 12 feet would have been better. There are some places where I would like to put it, but can't without using an extension cord, and I really don't want to do that. Since the power buttons aren't mechanical, I don't think you can use this with a timer or smart device. Doesn't bother me at all, but felt I should mention it. GRIPES Always defaults to max speed when turning it on. I almost never use it on max. It's too loud for a bedroom, but got dayum does it feel like you're in a wind tunnel on max. Can't really fault it for that. Power buttons are on the top/back of the unit. Kind of a strange location. Not a deal breaker so it gets a gripe. I haven't had to clean it yet. Doesn't seem like too much trouble to open, but I can't really comment on that yet. All in all I am very happy with it. Will probably buy another one down the line for myself or as a gift.

Silent. Powerful. Reliable. I hope they manufacture products in India so warranty becomes applicable. Better than the local junk.

No te lo apuntes directamente , debe ser apuntado a un muro para dejar circular el aire, La verdad es que es muy bueno y silencioso En Guadalajara con una temperatura de 30C , funciona muy bien, refresca y en velocidad 1 por la noche ni lo notas y si hace circular el aire, no es un minisplit pero te deja dormir mientras te refresca, si eres muy obeso/a seguramente necesitas otra alternativa
