The compact size, ease of use, and safety features are also appreciated. Some customers feel the price could be better, and that there should be an option to adjust the fan speed.

    Good, but loud

    This fan/heater combo works well - the heater puts out a lot of heat with a pretty nice fan-forced design. However, there are three settings - low heat, high heat, and fan only. On the high heat and fan only settings, the fan is quite loud. I would not recommend using this in a bedroom setting unless you can fall asleep to loud background noise.

      At Vornado, we take pride in our products and are sad to hear this product did not meet your all your expectations. This is one of our most powerful heaters, due to it's unique internal design. With that power, you will find it a little louder than some of the others. Please call our Consumer Care line at 800-234-0604 or email us at [email protected] and allow us to assist you. vornadobrands

    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!

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