Vornado Flippi V6 Personal Air Circulator Fan, Bliss Blue

I do not like the on/off/speed switch. It is difficult to use.

Perfect for a bed side, it makes quite a bit of noise for its size but I wouldnt dock it for that, its more like a white noise machine.

Just what I needed. Looks great too!

The strength of the fan left a little to be desired but at the same time was nosier than other desktop fans I have. Liked that it could be angled and the look of it is nice.

I bought this to cool down my home office, a 12x12 spare bedroom on the upper floor of my home that seems to get rather warm. I have Ecobee sensors in my office to monitor room temp. After placing this fan in my office at 80°, I let it run for 2 hours. I checked the sensor again after 2 hours, but it was still at 80° after all that time. Noise is noticeable, but not menacing. If you sleep with a fan on, it could be nice white noise next to you on a night stand. Unfortunately, this little fan isn’t going to help you cool an average sized room.

Cool color options, good size and throws good air. Only issue, there are two settings. The 1st setting, low, is quiet and throws some air. The 2nd setting, LOUD! There is no in between. Especially for online work, meetings etc. its hard to have this fan running without others hearing it in the background.

Im a fan of fans, a connoisseur even Id like to believe. At last count, Ive got 15 of them. Every room in my house has one, some have a couple, with multiple backups in the basement ready to go if needed. For desks and travel, I have a rotation of fans. My main one for the past couple years has been a Holmes rechargeable mini fan...which frankly has been great, but my one gripe was its range of motion while plugged in. So I decided to try something new. I like Vornados, and have a few floor models (None in the active rotation though). While Ive seen the Flippi V6 for years now, Ive never tried it and figured now was the time. I wish I hadnt, for a few reasons: - Its big for what it is. This thing isnt really sized to travel, even when folded away. It takes up significant desk real estate too...comparitively speaking. - The wheel to change speeds/turn off is moronic. One of the illogical things Ive seen on a fan. You have to go high to get low and use two hands to make any change. Its discrete at least, but from a function perspective, its just really bad design. - The disparity between the two speeds is huge. They really need something in the middle because the junp between them is irrational and deprives me of the the goldilocks zone speed. - Its loud compared to other disk fans. Even on low, while its for sure not loud, the sound is more than when youre getting in terms of wind. The high speed is very loud, and its not just the blade sound, the unit vibrates at the base when on high, which resonates on the table and contributes to the noise. For a nightstand fan, the sound is fine and maybe even soothing, but for a desk fan, especially in a shared office setting, its a non-starter. Ultimately, this fan is getting returned. It looks pretty, I love the cord length and the range of motion, but thats all. Super dissapointed and Id expect more from Vornado.

If you’ve seen those desktop Vornado fans and you think this is the same size but cuter, it’s not. It’s much smaller. But it’s effective, and is attractive. I’m not mad at the size I guess I thought it was something else.

Love the color. Love the design. I like that it folds under to prevent dust from collecting in the blades. Small and compact. Was easily able to store it in my locker. Has 2 speeds and a strong air flow. Definitely cools me down when sweating.

Some of the reviews said it was a bit loud. I didnt find that. The fan puts out a decent amount of wind so it is refreshing when needed
