Tools and Hardware Reviews of Vornado Midsize 630 Air Circulator, 3 Speeds, CR1-0074-06
Customer Review: Just what I was looking for!
Summary: 4 Stars
Great liitle fan...Really moves the air and most of all is quiet!Customer Review: Powerful and quiet at first, then odd noises developed.
Summary: 3 Stars
I really liked it at first.
Talk about moving some air. Worked great for a bit, then the rattling started. First only on the highest setting, then eventually made it down to the lowest. It started out as a vibration then became an off beat clicking. Seems to come from the motor or near it. Drove my wife crazy, light sleeper.
So I exchanged it, and it worked great for a time. Then it started to vibrate, and eventually the same clicking. Frustrated, I went to a local store this time, instead of exchanging it online again and bought a different vornado model. Worked great at first, then after a few days developed the clicking sound again. It isn't the blade hitting anything, if I had my guess I would guess the powerful motor throwing something balance.
Bought that back to the store, exchange. Fourth unit now, quiet stable, I was finally happy. What a great fan.
Last night it started again, all I could do is groan. click, click..space.. click..click..click.. Ack.
Brought it back..
I won't give it less than three stars, the clicking can be lived with. It is pronounced and not timed so it stands out. Not good for a light sleeper but if you can live through offbeat sounds, your good. Other than that, seems solid.
Too bad, I read so many good things about Vornado, I was pumped to get a high quality fan and was willing to pay. They start out really quiet, so if you can get it to stay that way, you will be happy.
Customer Review: Small but So-So
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased two of these to supplement circumventing the use of my A/C this summer, but they're not as powerful as I expected, with all of their hype and advertising. They're small, high-tech looking, and do somewhat circulate the air, but in a Southeast Texas pre-summer season, I don't think that these Vornados are going to be much of a lifesaver. One of them is now dedicated strictly for keeping my PS3 cooler, and the other just gets moved around to help out some bigger fans...
Customer Review: Doesn't seem that much better than less expensive fans.
Summary: 3 Stars
I did a side by side comparison between this "Air Circulator" and a much less expensive, generic, fan of similar size. I don't think the Vornado Air Circulator lives up to the hype about it. At high speed the circulator does move a lot of air, but it also makes a lot of noise. It is definitely not "quiet" as Vornado claims. At low speed, I can't see that it is any big improvement over a ordinary, generic fan.Customer Review: Quiet, but moves less air than expected
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought my Vornado 630B 3-speed fan about a year ago. It is a very quiet, seemingly well built fan. However, for the money, I was not overly impressed with the volume of air that it moves. It moves no more air than you would expect from even the cheapest of fans (but does so very quietly). So, if you want it for its quietness, 5-stars... for volume of air, I would buy a cheap fan.
