VornadoPORTAL® Window Fan with 3 Speeds, Reversible Exhaust Mode, Weather Resistant, Window Fan For Kitchen, Bedroom, Home, Low Profile, Black

This is a great, quiet low profile window fan. I've been using this as a way to vent out steam from my bathroom because it doesn't have a vent. So far, it does a great job as long as I leave the door, a crack open.It has three different speed settings although I find myself mostly using the max speed setting It's also important to know that this fan doesn't do both exhaust and intake at the same time, but it does let you choose between the two options. I've been using it for a week or so now and I have had no problems, even though there has been rain.It does come with some foam to help pad the sides to fit better into the window. I found that I had to cut them even though they came in different widths for my needs. The cord is also really long, which was helpful.

Excellent design, works equally well as fan and exhaust.Includes pads for excellent fit. Highly recommended. Great value.

Works great! I use it in a bedroom. It's quiet and actually puts out a nice breeze. The size is great as it allows you to also use the window for natural light and for viewing. Appears to be well made. I just wish it came with some type of screen on the back, that's the reason for the 4 stars. Other than that, it's a great option.

I love the look of it. It’s sleek and doesn’t let to much light in. It’s a lot quieter than the other one I had. I can have it on full blast and it moves a lot of air. I like that I can swap between pulling air in or out. The foam it comes with to help fit are great and sturdy. The only two down sides are I had to remove my window mesh to install and it doesn’t have a remote. All in all a good buy so far.

The good:The fan itself, consider the smaller size, provides decent airflow. Not great, not good, but OK airflow - for the slim size.The neutral:It fits OK into a newer window with no trim or sill (like your average cheap vinyl replacement window). The fan is reversible.The bad:Where to start? This product is such a disappointment - a collection of good ideas ruined by Vornado cheaping out resulting in poor execution, poor fit, and a worse seal than your average $30 (junky) window fan. The biggest issue is the fit of the unit itself - it requires a newer window with tight clearances for a secure fit. It does not fit securely into older windows, any sash windows I tried, or into any of the windows having interior sills/trim that fit against a closed sash (common on older windows, wooden sash windows, etc). Any degree of height or padding adjustment under the unit could have resolved this issue - it is simply cheap/poor design on Vornados part, especially considering the higher price-point. The foam blocks included do little to seal the window and can easily be shifted or pushed out. Bugs and mosquitoes can freely come and go around these blocks and through the unit itself as it has no grill or mesh on the exterior to prevent this.Window fans are rarely the best option, but this Vornado fits so poorly that I can honestly recommend just opening your window or propping a cheap box fan on the sill instead… it will move more air and you’ll deal with same number of bugs and poor seal as you would with this unit. The seal and fit of this unit is unacceptably bad for this price point - try a cheaper fan instead.

Huge fan of how these look and the build quality is really nice, but performance is mixed. As an intake it works perfectly and is almost silent on low/med and high is consistent with a normal fan while moving a good amount of air.As an exhaust it seems to stall the fan out at the slightest outside air movement, which causes the fan motor to lug and it sounds pretty rough. I do not use it as an exhaust for this reason because I don’t want to ruin it and it is loud.I would like to see a thermostat on these like the cheapy window fans and I can’t imagine it would be too hard to make the diverter tighter so it could block airflow when off eliminating the need to remove the fan from the window when running central air during warm days.I want to like this brand, they make some intresting products (some even in America, apparently) but my first fan purchased locally didn’t work and this one doesn’t fill the roll of the $35 dual window fan it replaced.

Works great. Much better than the old dual blade window fan. Much quieter as well. Definitely more pleasing to the eye. Forward and reverse at the touch of the button, no need to start and stop. A bit pricey but I’ll be buying another soon

I always wait to write a review until i have tested product. i have had unit for 8 months and had performed flawless. Brings cooler air in good but doesn't take out air as strong is it bring in. Still in whatever mode you have it in works good. Im buying another one for living room. Buy with confidence.
