I didn't really believe the Vornado hype until I bought one. I purchased the 630 to achieve a gentle breeze and cooling effect in my room. I live in the southwest and it easily climbs to 100 + degrees in the Summer outside, and in the Winter it's nice to have some air circulation so the room doesn't get too stuffy. This fan does a fantastic job at providing a very steady and consistent airstream without the choppiness of other "propeller" based fans. In my experience, this fan produces one of the smoothest airstreams out of any of the other competing "propeller" fans on the market that I have used.I was initially a little bit concerned about the seemingly steep $60 dollar asking price. It is indeed just a fan. I am pleased to report that I feel my $60 dollars was well spent. The fan is relatively quiet, it's definitely noticeable but it has more of a white noise sound (that actually helps me sleep). I usually stick to low and medium speed settings, primarily setting it to low when I sleep. Medium is a good balance between noise level and air movement. High moves a surprising amount of air, but is admittedly fairly loud. I rarely use this setting, usually only for ten minutes or so to help cool down the room when I get home from work. The 630's motor manages to avoid the high pitched whine of some other fans I have tried. Most of the noise is from the air movement, with only a slight audible low-pitch hum from the motor, which from a cursory look appears to be a relatively high quality part.The build quality is very good. Don't let the plastic construction fool you, this is HIGH QUALITY plastic that is durable and feels like it will hold up. While it certainly isn't as nice as a vintage steel or aluminum fan, by modern standards it's actually ahead of the pack. The 4-way speed selection knob (off, high, med, low) gives a satisfying click when switching to different speeds. The propeller is a indeed a "deep pitch" propeller (think boat prop), meaning the blades have more surface area to move air, and the motor doesn't have to spin at a million RPM's to get some good airflow coming your way. While I think that Vornado's claim of air movement up to 70 feet is a bit exaggerated, I would say 40 to 50 feet should be a reasonable expectation. I am using it in a relatively small room however, but I do find it more than adequate for my needs.This Vorando fan proves the concept of "you get what you pay for." You will get a quality, well-built fan, and I feel it's certainly been worth what I paid. I picked up a cheap Honeywell Turboforce fan (sort of a cheap imitation of the Vornado fan design) for work at my local Target, and it's nowhere near the same quality, and I actually regret buying it despite it's cheap cost. If you want a quality fan that doesn't rattle, doesn't have a high pitched whine, and moves air without sounding like a Boeing 737 on takeoff, this is the fan for you. Skip the cheap imitators, trust me, I have tried them.

The fan came fine, looked like a new piece. No physical damage. I plugged it in, the sound was low and the air speed was good. And then there was burning smell, smoke and then the fan died.All in all it looks like a well designed product, and I may just have had the bad luck of being delivered a faulty unit. And if that's the case I will change my review, but until such time that the seller sends me a replacement, this review stands.----Received the replacement, it was broken and not working! Adding pictures of the same!If you're in India looking for a circulatory fan there's an option from acer, I've ordered that, let's hope that doesn't disappoint.

Nivel de ruido aceptable teniendo en cuenta que si funciona como lo promocionan

Okay, it's not 100% silent. It's not noisy though, just not completely silent.It's a fan, it moves air around, and that's going to make noise.That being said, It's very good at moving air around.I'm the kind of person that hates oscillating fans. With an oscillating fan you either have lots of air, or no air at all.This fan isn't like that. It's not a particularly large fan (though not small either) and doesn't oscillate. But by some weird magic it gives a gentle breeze throughout the room. There's a slight breeze even where it's not pointing directly at me. Even when on the lowest setting which is quiet enough for me. Not sure how it accomplishes this, but it's pretty great.I haven't used AC nearly as much this year so it's been well worth the price.

Love the vornado it has helped me with those hot days. I work from home and have to keep the house closed up and when I cook it gets really hot here. And this has help in keeping the area where I work cool!

Enfría muy bien, hace ruido (si, como todo abanico) pero no tan fuerte como los demás.
