The best money can buy, August 10, 2001
This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Vornado RCR1-0023-06750B Whole Room Air Circulator, Black (Kitchen)
This is our third Vornado unit. We bought a Vornado heater to take the chill off the kitchen in the winter, and a small Vornado fan to help circulate air in the kitchen area during our very hot summers and the last one is the larger one that we use in our exercise room. They are the best but buying factory reconditioned units makes them all the better.

This fan really moves air!, July 19, 2001

I can't say enough good things about Vornado fans.
I have the small (500 series) and medium (600 series) Vornado fans and tried out a 750B that belongs to a friend. Even the 510 is powerful, and the 750B goes well beyond the two smaller size fans in power. Turned as low as it will go, it still creates quite a breeze 10 feet away (same as 510 on medium or high), and moves air in a wider swatch so it would better cool everyone sitting on a couch or at a table, not just one or two people it's pointed directly at (as the 500 is better suited for). The 750B would also be ideal if you wanted to move lots of air from an air-conditioned room to a room without air-conditioning. One friend bought a 750B for a dance studio, and on high setting in a large open room dancers could still feel some breeze twenty or more feet away.
Very little noise at all on low. It does make a lot more noise when it's cranked all the way up.
The main disadvantage is that's it's a little big to sit in a standard hallway or doorway (15-16" wide), and is too deep to sit in a window without some kind of platform (the 600 is the perfect size and balance to sit in a window sill). Where it's size is not an issue (and 15" wide still isn't a huge fan. It's a little deeper than it is wide), the 750B is excellent. After seeing Vornado fans, three of my friends/family decided to get this 750B.
You can see my review of 510W for a longer discussion comparing Vornado fans.

Really cools down a room!!, July 18, 2001

I bought one of these for my son's bedroom because on a hot day it is like being in an oven. We tried box fans, window fans, and ocillating fans and none of them provided much relief. Needless to say, by the time I came across the Vornado I was a bit skeptical about how effective it would be, but decided to try it anyway. Boy am I glad I did!!! I cannot believe the difference in room temperature after the Vornado has been running a few minutes!! It is truly remarkable. One day my husband was cooking a roast in the oven and burnt it so badly that smoke began to permeate the whole house. I set the Vornado up near an open window and WALLA..in minutes the smoke was gone. This is certainly not your average fan..it is the only brand I will buy!!
