Was using a Lasko box fan for 3 years. Recently upgraded to one of these Vortex fans. It's a big improvement. Even on low setting I can feel a breeze 6 ft. away.
I have a one story house in Texas with 12’ ceilings and central air. The summer time here gets up in the 100s like today. In my main living room (with tv & electronics) I installed a A/C window unit and right in front of it is a Vornado fan. It blasts the window AC unit air across the living room and keeps it cool. I don’t turn on my central air and have saved $.
*Vornado definitely makes a great fan **Fastly.Cool** . We had the older model that was larger and which we liked more, but we are still quite pleased with this product. Recommended!*
How does the 660 compare to this? Website shows 7803 has better specs. Why? I’m confused, because everyone says 660 is the best. My living room is quite long so I need the more powerful fan, perhaps it isn’t the 660? Edit: not Alexa version. Alexa version has worse specs than regular 660 also.
the 660 is awesome. I bought it after watching a video on youtube. I forget which. Our top floor overheats in high temps. The only way I cool down is to make the house freezing which freezes out my husband. Now I just turn this on me for a few minutes and I cool down pretty fast where I can lower the speed and then I don't need it. It was worth the money. I have a much much smaller one that I don't think was worth it though.
Does this only help circulating one room? I live in an apartment where the AC only cools the bathroom and hallway that the thermostat is in. The rest of the place is hot. Would this Vornado work well to distribute the air into different rooms? Or should I get a straightforward industrial fan?
could you please have at the end or something a part where its just the fan going with no other sounds? the sound is really important and I am dissapointed i wasn't able to hear it for a minute or two to see how it is
what world is going threw with everything i need fans electic is high no one can afford nothing now you have do what have too to make money last now will this fan cool down really fast i lives in sc its real hot
man, my room gets about 40 degrees celcius with electronics running, hopefully the vornado 660 helps me out im still pondering purchasing one. any replies would be appreciated.
@@DadReviews thanks for the reply, i think i will, but would it actually change the room temperature or just blow the hot air around creating hot gusts of air?
@@11--------- it will just blow the air in the room because there is no cooling feature to it. Just as a regular fam would work, but since the air is moving, it won't make it feel as stale and make it feel hot. Think of a nice wind on a warm day. Also, in a house, the cool air is on the bottom and the heat it near the ceiling, so moving the cool air on the bottom around might help.
I don't feel this fan is as good as the Vornado 660 or VFAN Sr. The VFAN does come on a stand if you just need it. This model in the video sounds like the air is bouncing around inside making excessive noise.
Honestly, I'm not sure. I just turn it on when I get hot. I've left it on for 6-8 hours before. I don't think anything will happen if you leave it on 24/7
Really? I don't know anything about motors but I was like dead sure that it would "burn out", just stop working, if it is on 24/7...but nevertheless, I have it on almost 24/7 cause I moved into studio with windows on one side of the house only... I am used to have good air flow, always open windows on both sides of the house... this studio is horribly stuffy for me as soon as I turn off the Vornado
yes, of course, i turn it on when i am out.... but london is so exhausting, noisy, traffic jammed....that after every day and night out - i stay in for about 5 days, to rest ....and then i have vornado on constantly ....cause london is not only exhausting but also vile and slimy....so called "landlords" (as required by the "state", or whoever hides behind this word) are deliberately depriving tenants of oxygen and installing windows that can barely open...london is, basically, a concentration camp...full of lakes but they call them "reservoirs" and they put all kinds of obstacles around them so that people can't get in and swim...london is monstrosity, the vilest place on earth and in history.
thanks for the reply...i almost forgot that ceiling fans exist, i didn't see one for ages...sounds cool indeed but i am moving the house rather often so it's better for me to stick with something that requires no installation at all...i pack the vornado with the rest of my things and off we go...my biggest concern at the moment is the sore throat, this seems to be the inevitable consequence of the constant breeze
Kind of a weak review. Things I'd have liked to see covered: - Power efficiency - Measurement of sound in dB at medium'high - Maybe some comparison with a normal cheap fan in terms of air flow. Saying "it's powerful" and "look at my hair and shirt move" is kind of laughable, to be honest; any fan can achieve this effect. How does this justify buying a fan that costs 5-10x as much as a cheap one?
Mostly cheap fans are just garbage like if you get a lasko boxfan and that they are much bigger then a vornado but I have a vornado 633 and it's much smaller and it moves more air with less power and the sound is much lower pitch like a bassy waterfall sound and the lasko boxfan pulls over 100 watts and the vornado is around 60
@@driftracing08 I wound up just getting a boxfan from Bunnings. It's 100w and is pretty loud, but it can just about blow my pants off from a meter away, for $50 instead of $200+ for this Vornado crap that no one can seem to justify the price of. Equal amounts of people seem to swear they're either great or total crap.
@@larion2336 Like with vornado that the creator of vornado made airplanes and that they decided to put the airplane technology into fans and make a whole room air circulator and for to be more then just a fan and that the air does spin around like a tornado instead of just blowing straight out like the cheap fans and that with air circulators they are made to be used for all seasons making the heat and A/C more efficient
@@larion2336 And that vornados dc motor fans are way better then there ac motor fans and dc motor fans in general are way better that I have a pelonis 16 inch stand dc fan and on the max speed it moves way more air then the cheap box fans at 25 watts but it's like around 99 dollars
@@driftracing08 I have heard their DC models are much better than the AC ones, ofc they also charge a premium for that, on top of the huge premium they are already charging. To me it's almost besides the point now where Vornado fans are good at pushing air or not because they just cost too much to justify when you can get a powerful fan for 2-3x less. Maybe it'll be a little louder or a little less efficient, but we're talking minor differences while the difference in price is massive. That said I'm in Australia and it may be that you can get them much cheaper in the US, it's just the prices here are stupid.
Warning: this Vornado produces a massive magnetic field 90 degrees to the motor. DON'T USE IT IN YOUR BEDROOM OR ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE WALL TO YOUR BED.
If you're serious or want people to take u seriously, this needs further explanation. The statements "90 degrees to motor" and "opposite side of the wall to your bed" have no context.

"It could use an extra two inches" Couldn't we all.
Gonna grab a few to cut the AC costs down. Thanks for the review!

awesome! Thaks for sharing, and glad that you are enjoying it!
I bought the 660 and I'm incredibly happy with it. I was hesitant at first due to the price, but worth every penny.
It’s an amazing fan! Glad you like it!
Great video! I’m considering purchasing one and now I think I will 👍🏾
Do it! It's fantastic
How was it?
My metal shop fan just broke and I just discovered Vornado... I want one! 😳👏✨
They are awesome! yOu should get one!
I have one of those HoneyBaby 909's and it works as well as an inexpensive fan can be expected to work, no complaints.
Thank yo uvu for sharing your experience with this fan. Actually helpful and straightforward explanation.
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it and it was helpful.
dude thank you for your review!
welcome! I hope it was helpful!

Great fans. My go to brand.
Great review thanks..what actual model number is this and which is the best most powerful Vornado to get?
I’m fine with the noise the white noise helps with sleeping
yes. This is the perfect fan if you like white noise for sleeping!
I just bought the Vornado 660 what a fan it is awesome I highly recommend it
awesome! glad you are liking it! It knows how to move air!

Welcome. Thanks for watching
Just bought one at Home Depot . IT IS THE BEST FAN I have ever had it’s amazing I didn’t get the one in the video but omg it’s amazing
Thanks for sharing! Glad you loving it!
How much was it is it cheap?
May i know where is Vornado service center in Malaysia?? 🙏
I have 2 small Vornado fans and 2 bigger ones. They circulate air really good it feels like real wind.
Bold statement
I ordered the 660 for my room as it gets hot in my room due to hot weather and a lot of electronics.
How has it been performing for you?
?? 👀
Well?

I've never tried the 660. Sorry.
Is this better or 660?
Can I use it 24/7?
what world is going threw with everything i need fans electic is high no one can afford nothing now you have do what have too to make money last now will this fan cool down really fast i lives in sc its real hot
But is it any better than a standard fan with regards to breeze?
This is pretty powerful
Wow
Are they good for outside noises?
I think so. They are loud on high speed
Is it energy efficient?
Thats my question
Marc,, are you a fruit?
