Customer Ratings & Reviews

This fan puts out more air and uses less electricity so its the ideal fan. It really move far more air than its small size would lead you to believe, its powerful and quiet even on LOW setting. Highly recommended for putting out more air than other fans its size.

Works great, quiet on the lowest setting and still moves a lot of air. On medium the noise is more noticeable and on high it’s loud honestly. But it MOVES air. Much more than you would expect from something this small.

Put it in on the floor facing my bed. It helps move the air and works great in tandem with my air purifier.

A bit more expensive than other fans but you get what you pay for with this

I wasn’t expecting it to be this powerful! It moves air across the whole room and is surprisingly quiet. Highly recommend!

Easy to install, fast to pick up, easy to use, low noise, 3 good speeds

Have had for years and still working with no rattles!!

Noise level is high Air flow is strong not enough air circulating Use it in the garage

[Employee of bestbuy] I had to buy this little guy for work and he does a great job, and all of my coworkers enjoy him as well.

As soon as it was powered on, it made a small humming noise with no signs of life. I hit it a little and it started to spin but then the blades seemed to be hitting the sides of the fan. It wouldn't do it at a specific angle, but that's not how the fan was advertised. There is some very shady quality control going on with Vornado. Worst purchase of the year.

The Vornado 533 is small and quiet on setting one. I mainly use it to cool my amps, preamp-dac and DSP. When I want to clear out a room the loud 2 and 3 settings get the job done despite it's diminutive stature. I can't figure out why fans are made with the highest setting first on the dial and the lowest setting last. That's probably because I use the lowest setting almost exclusively. I don't ding the unit for that. It's just counter intuitive to me. Great quality, and comensurate price. I think $50 is ridiculous for a fan this size. $25 for the fan and $25 the Vornado name. Oh, well. I guess it's better that buying a $25 piece of garbage. Vornados are the best. I'll pay the premium.

[Employee of bestbuy] Small form factor packed in with alot of power. Don't let it's size fool ya, it will certainly move some air in a small/med room. On its highest setting, it is pretty loud so beware of you're gaming, don't wanna annoy the homies. This device is very easy to clean when needed, and regular maintenance is easy.

Put it on my dresser. Circulates are just fine. Multiple settings. Very quiet but it does have some sound. But like a white noise effect. I sleep just fine with it on.

This was a replacement for the Vornado 660 fan I have which was honestly too big for the bedroom so I decided to get this 533 model and although much smaller than the 660 it's perfect for the room I sleep in. Really circulates the air throughout the room and I was able to move the 660 to a bigger room so everything worked out. Definitely will cut cost of running central air and keep things cool. This circulates air throughout the room much differently than a traditional fan so it's much more effective. Definitely recommend

I really like the fan as its a perfect air circulator for a 12*12 room, it is silent enough to keep in bedrooms and offices. I would have loved if the fan came with a remote control. All in all a good price for a powerful enough air circulator.

Small, quiet, moves air around very efficiently, very pleased with the performance of this small fan highly recommend

I bought this fan for my dorm room and it’s been amazing keeps the room feeling good and great for background noise and easy to store away when I leave or have to move to another building

Works great for moving air, quiet and the lowest setting is stronger than many other fans top speed.

Pretty sure this could run nonstop for 5 years or more. Solid build. Doesn’t rattle. Good for white noise. High setting has respectable power for size of this fan. Excellent product. Great value for the price.

Works like it should. Nice cool breeze at night and in the daytime. I've enjoyed using it. It does what it's supposed to! Which is keep me cool and comfortable on a hot day or night.
