Many are impressed with the power it delivers, while some find the highest fan speed to be quite loud. The overall performance has left many satisfied, though a few customers feel the price is a bit high.

    Worth the money. Small but is better than having a big fan!

    Blows air pretty well in my small room. Little louder than I thought at medium, but still quieter than my old box fan.

    it is more of circulating rather than a 'fan'. it is a little noisier than predicted, but works really well circulating/fan

    This fan blows! Wind, is what I’m saying. It blows wind with great velocity and sometimes small spiders. It’s pretty good except for the spiders. I gave it 5 stars.

    More powerful than expected! It's small but can really move a lot of air. It's very quite on low but med gives a great "white noise" for sleeping. Exactly what we were looking for!

    Purchased this fan for my daughter for her college dorm room. We bought a competitor last year for same purpose but it wasn't strong enough. Anyway, this fan's strength is good, sound at top speed a bit loud, and its ability to be flexible is limited. With that said the fan is working well for its intended function.

    Love Vornado fans, but wish they didn't change the speed dial. Our prior Vornado fan doesn't have set speeds, it's just a dial. These preset speeds on the new one didn't work for us because we wished there was a speed in between. Unfortunately returned this model and haven't found a good replacement.

      Thank you for your feedback. There wasn't a change to the knob on the 533, however we have many different models and styles of fans at Vornado. They will have different features. We have a line of DC fans, that have variable fan speeds that you may like. We even have a 533DC. Please reach out to our team for more information at 800-234-0604 or email us at [email protected]. vornadobrands

    The fan is designed very well. The room temperature drops faster than just opening the air conditioner itself.
