    The Vorando works excellently to heat up a room. It works quickly. The Vornado has excellent safety features. If you move it, it shuts down and is easily restarted.

    Great Little Heater

    Bought as a replacement for my previous Vornado heater that inexplicably died. Works well and is quiet, though I can't find anything in the specs to explain why it will occasionally issue a sudden fan burst when operating on low power setting (not a deal-breaker for me). People considering this heater do need to understand that it provides heat at a low, steady level, not super-hot forced air. It works really well to keep my bedroom comfortable, allowing a lower setting on my central heating system for the rest of the house.

    I'm seriously impressed with the Vornado Velocity 5R. It heats up my large bedroom quickly and the heat circulates way better than any other space heater I've tried. I love that it's cool to the touch, the remote is handy, and the nighttime mode is great. If you need serious supplemental heat, this is the one!

    Doesn’t do a large area, sometimes the air is cool- but the timer is great and it turns off if it’s not balanced. Overall great product for a bedroom or smaller area.

    Use it to heat an office spare bedroom and it works great. Warms up quick and stays quiet enough to just be white noise.

    This is a very nice looking heater that works well to heat our room. There are a lot of settings to get the desired temperature. It is not super hot so it takes a while to get the temperature in the room to the desired level. However, it is effective. The remote is a nice plus.

    Great product! Pushes out nice hot air fast! The only complaint i have is the remote. You can't see the display on the heater to see what the settings are set to. The remote is very basic. It would be nice if the remote had a display or some way to indicate what the fan is set to.

    Did a great job heating up a 200sf room for a party in a solarium. Doesn’t take up a lot of space, either and cool to the touch. A good purchase.

    Heated our Tiny House in -30 Degrees Fahrenheit

    Bought this for the past winter cold front we had, and it helped take the chill off our 210 sq ft Tiny House. At times our mini split would freeze out and we were able to maintain +68 degrees fahrenheit in our house using only this fan on the HIGH setting, with wind chills in the -50 degree fahrenheit range...

    We have always had trouble getting a space heater that can run at the same time as bathroom fan in other room. This has been a nice option so far.
