Vornado 560 Medium Air Circulator Fan - 4 Speed Adjustable Floor Fan with Quiet Operation, Easy Clean Design for Home, Office & Bedroom (White) | Whole Room Cooling & Air Circulation Solution

I have mixed feelings on this one. So without a doubt it works. As one comment said you better believe it will move air very easily. Compared to the cheap $39.99 Lasko one at walmart. This one takes the cake and will blow way more air.Noise Levels:Its okay. To say its silent is a stretch but its not loud. Its not industrial omg whats that noise. You can totally sleep through it but it is one where you can hear the fans from the hallway so I would say its pretty standard that you would expect from any old fan.Cooling Potentials:At the end of the day most fans from what I have seen simply put won't cool a room down. You can feel the air no matter where you put it in the room and point it if its on full blast but it will simply put be no replacement to an actual centralized a/c unit. Please remember this when you have little ones. I live in Southern California so it gets hot after June glooms over. Like really hot like heat wave kind of heat. This fan provides a great breeze that keeps my internal temperatures at good levels when im resting in bed. I bought two of them and have them both on my nighstands so its actually nice from that perspective but remember that the hot air doesn't escape.Worth the price:Ehh to someone's point I think you can probably get away with finding a cheaper fan elsewhere. I personally went with these two after reading reviewers on it and the name Vornado was cool and I researched it so it met my needs. However, at $200.00 it works. It gets the job done. I don't feel like I wasted money tbh. Its a lot of air these small things can push out but again it won't get the actual hot air out the room unless there is an open window/door. etc.I do think a better alternative would be a portable A/C unit if you really need something going but for me as the only person dwelling in this room the two fans work great.TL:DR I am pleased with my purchase and it works no doubt. I would recommend it again but I would exercise a lot of caution when recommending this to someone.
