Vornado 460 Small Whole Room Air Circulator Fan with 3 Speeds, 460-Small, Black

When was the last time a brand new smart home device worked flawlessly? For me it was when I unboxed this fan. I plugged it in, fired up the Alexa app to rename it, and it just worked, no muss no fuss no bother. It has just worked every single time Ive used Alexa. If youre old-fashioned and prefer getting your exercise by walking over to the fan youre in luck too-- the buttons on top are much nicer than the traditional knob. This fan moves a lot of air for something so small, and it does it as quietly as any fan can... it feels like all of the noise comes from air movement and none from the motor, which is kind of the holy grail of fan noise. The glide bar makes it easy to tilt the head to the right angle, and also serves as a handle when you need to move it. I cant speak to its longevity but every other Vornado fan Ive owned has been a workhorse. I kind of feel like a shill writing an all-positive review, but I really am that happy with the product.

I have been converted to a Vornado fan for life because of this product. I couldnt quite grasp how a seemingly simple fan could demand such a price point, but it soon proved its value when we received it. First thing after taking it out of the box I set it on the ground, plugged it in and promptly pointed it at my wife across the room and turned it on. Without fail she said she could clearly feel the breeze from the fan from quite a ways away, and also remarked on how quiet it was. My childish testing of the fan wouldnt be complete without finding out of my cat also could feel the breeze, so I pointed the fan up to the bed where my cat was sitting and watching me. She began to squint her eyes a bit from the fan soon after pointing it her way, giving me the answer I needed that yes kitty did indeed feel the breeze. But this is where the Vornado went above and beyond being just a fan, the air stream coming off of it managed to work its way under the throw blanket on the bed and began to inflate it like a parachute. Kitty was nothing less than terrified that the blanket was now inflating towards her suddenly so she promptly jumped up into the air away from the edge of the bed. But this simple move was no match for the power of the Vornado as it continued to fill up the blanket towards her as she landed. Her last and final effort was a quick and blind jump off the side of the bed and sprinting out of the room. This whole series of events within the first minutes of owning it made me a believer in the product. On a more serious note the Vornado has drastically helped my wife and I for keeping the bedroom cooler. The house doesnt have the best circulation and I have on several occasions seen a 5 degree difference between ceiling and floor temperatures. In order to try and keep the bedroom cool enough that we can sleep under the same blanket, wed have to take the house down to 69 degrees at night, where we normally run 72 the rest of the day. Since owning this fan we have never had to lower the temperature in the house, and this is with it only on the second lowest setting! We can feel a huge different in the comfort of the room temperature wise, and when I use my infrared thermometer to check the temps of ceiling and floor now that we have the Vornado, theyre always the same temperature now. I can point it at a completely different part of the room and still feel the flow of air it creates on the other side. If I ever need another fan without question it WILL be a Vornado.

Great fan! Not my first. I have another which is over five years old.

Perfect table top. Will be getting the medium and large for bigger areas in my flat. I run hot constantly so they will be on 24/7

I really am impressed by this fan. It has great white sound on medium and high. It really circulates the air in my bedroom.

I have bought three of the Vornado 460 models. The first two were great, but I am not a fan of the latest one. In this iteration of the model the fan speed control mechanism changed. With the new one, when I change the speed it changes the elevation unless I use two hands to steady the fan. Also, the fan will not stay in a horizontal elevation - instead it will slowly move to a more elevated position which is not pointed in the direction I want the air to flow towards. It is still a good quiet fan, just not as good as the previous 460s.

This fan is quiet and actually pushed air. I’ve had so many junk fans that make a lot of noise and don’t push air. I’m sticking with this company going forward. Awesome fan

My wife loves it!

Good for white noise and strong air flow. I wouldnt have purchased it if I had seen how small it was - but Im glad I did. Perfect for our large bedroom even with it on the lowest setting. Attractive fan.

This is the best fan. Better than any tower fan I have ever used. It’s single-handedly prolonging the time I get with my bedroom window before installing my window AC unit for the season.
