    It works pretty good and I do like the features, (shut off/sleep timer, remote, temp settings) however the older square, standard vornados heat a room better and faster in my opinion. Still good and still works but my other Vornados are a bit more efficient.

    Our hvac broke after that snow storm in Febuary and it was still a lil chilly so picked this up to warm up my room and it went warm really fast. Happy with this purchase.

    Like the product, as it shows on top all the helpful information, such as, actual room temp and the scheduled set temp reading and speed. Can be controlled by a remote, easy to use.

    I bought this when my furnace went out. It really puts out a lot of heat, and I didn't notice my electric bill going up much. It got us thru the last few cold days of winter!

    Strong little heater. Perfect a big bedroom with the door closed. Cuts on and off just like your furnace. This was an excellent purchase for me.

    Great little heater with a safety sensor. If it tips over by any chance, it'll turn off. It comes with a remote too.

    A small heater with a big impact. The Vornado method of directing airflow makes sure the heat is directed where you want it.

    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!

    I bought one of these heaters for my laundry room. I feed my cat in there so I wanted something they couldn't knock over easily. I love it and it works well. Better than the tower heater I had there before. I bought a 2nd one. It works good but the fan is noisy where the 1st one is quiet.
