Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is an air circulator not a typical fan . It's designed to circulate air in a room mixing all the cooler air lower to the floor with the hotter air higher near the ceiling while creating airflow all around the room vs the typical fan blowing air in no real pattern that works best pointed directly at you. The vornado works amazingly well but there is a catch to it that most people don't notice, don't know or don't always mention... In order to get great results you must experiment with placement of the vornato to find its sweet spot in that particular room. In other words the vornado doesn't work well everywhere in the room and that sweet spot could be a place you really don't want to keep it like the middle of the room, far corner of the room or maybe not near an outlet. If you don't experiment with placement you may not be getting full results leaving you to believe it wasn't worth it or it's overrated when your just using it wrong. I hope this helps..
