Fantastic
The fan has 4 settings, which smoothly transition from a soft silent breeze (about as strong as a desk can), to a louder heavy breeze (A bit stronger than your average tower fan on high).I keep the fan on its lowest setting while I sleep, which is so quiet I dont need to adjust the value on my audiobooks.This fan does not rotate at all, but it honestly doesn't need to. It covers a wide are due to its shape. I believe this fan to be much sturdier and longer-lasting than my old rotating tower fan.PS. I bought the fan used, and it did come to me in several pieces. The motor worked perfectly, but I did need to fix a lot of the plastic bits that had been snapped or broken by a previous owner. I was able to get the fan into a "good as new" condition with only hot glue, though.TL;DR The fan manufacturer definitely doesn't want you tearing this thing apart to component pieces, but you can if you need to.

Really cools the room!
Vornado truly is worth every dollar over the competition and is certainly worth the investment over the lower end fans available in the market. It’s unique design and cooling technology truly keeps you cool even when the temperature of the house is a whopping 28 degrees. I had this bad boy running and keeping me cool while the AC has been broken and I got to say it kept me cool! I also misplaced my Vornado remote and I contacted them directly asking for a replacement. I was expecting to spend $40-$50 for the replacement remote but Vornados customer service decided to send it to me free of charge. This level of customer service paired with their cooling technology and a five year warranty, what more could you ask for? I’ll tell you what! While other tower fans just kept me cool by directing the air through a narrow vent and forcing itself to oscillate the Vornado tower 184 managed to keep a cool constant airflow throughout the direction it was pointed in due to the way the vent directs air in a somewhat V shaped resulting in cooling a much larger area . In my opinion it’s about some of the best fans money can buy and a worthy investment. Just don’t expect this thing to run silent as while it does have the two lower levels which are relatively quiet and great for sleeping the two higher settings you’ll certainly hear but it’s much better then the competition as it’s a soothing white noise rather then an annoying overwhelming sound you’ll get from the competition. I tested this against a top of the line Honeywell Quietset tower fan and this Vornado was leaps and bounds better as it didn’t require oscillation to cool a larger area. It also is way more powerful and actually cools the room and doesn’t just push hot air around like the Honeywell. Buy this fan you will not regret it!! 10/10

Nice, but ordinary
- Noise: 4 distinct speed settings, loud at speed 3 and very LOOOUD at 4;- Design: it looks good. No, it's not an oscillating fan and it does not "behave" like an oscillating fan;- Purpose: good air circulator, but there is no magic, the power and air flow cannot be targeted to a specific area of the room. Selfish Lucas cannot have the fan just for himself (said the "altruistic" girlfriend).- "Fit": nice for a small living room, it will reduce the room temperature although it's not strong enough to save you in the summer (if it's above 25C, you might want to find something else to cool you down). Bedroom? If you have a tall bed, 50-75% of the air won't reach you ( reason: tower fan+ the "altruistic design"). NO, the LED lights do not dim after a while and you cannot turn them off;- Reliability: after 5 months, the fan has started to make some odd noises, nothing unbearable, at least not yet. What type of noise? The type of noise that Tedd used to make while exercising in his large, "comfort" exercise wheel. Tedd The Hamster was ahead of any CEO, YouTuber and/or life coach, getting his workout done at 2am everyday.Betting game: it shall be replaced by Summer 2023.Overall: I cannot give more than 3, but less than 3 would would not be fair. It looks nice, but it's ordinary

Strong but won't oscillate!
Beautiful strong tower. And very soft and quick delivery !👍 Just wanted to cut one star due to the following issue: I certainly couldn't judge the gadget before using it ! Being used to oscillating old fashioned round fans, I thought their panels would also move so that you don't get constant blow to one direction. I wish it would leave me alone for 2 seconds than blow again by moving panels or oscillating in the mean time. Otherwise very good looking and very powerful device especially for heat waves we are currently suffering (and probably will be the new normal for many)

This fan so far has outlasted all the other ~100$ fans you can get at walmart and canadian tire. Its been running for 3 years and 11 months, non-stop. It started making a little clicking sound a few months in, but that was because of a superficial piece of plastic that I was able to stuff a piece of cardboard in to resolve.Just wish it could be easily opened for cleaning. Its full of gunk inside.. but its still going strong 4 years in. Will definitely buy it again when mine dies.
