    Vornado makes great heaters and this one is no exception. It performs very well and this, in addition to another model we own, helped us get through the recent bout of near-zero temperatures while our furnace decided to take a multi-day break and stopped working.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The fan works great. The heat setting is very loud and the fan blows loud then gets quiet over and over. It does not seem to be able to maintain a temperature that is set. Its not great for a small room at night.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Posted .

      The Velocity 5R is one of our most powerful heaters and is louder on the high setting. It is Auto Climate and will reach the temperature set, then cut to half power to try to maintain the temperature. When the temperature drops, it will engage again on high. If you need further assistance on the operation of the unit, please reach out to our Consumer Care team at 800-234-0604 or email us at [email protected]. We'll be happy to assist you. vornadobrands
