783DC

We’ve had this unit for over 2 years. Performs flawlessly and impressive air flow. It’s able to keep air moving well in our 2 storey foyer, keeping our second floor cool. Love that it is energy efficient, quiet, and made in USA. It also looks great.

Okay first off, you probably should not use this as a regular pedestal fan. This fan moves more air than its 900+ cfm would suggest. The air coming from this fan (okay, air circulator) does not buffet, it's a steady stream of wind. Or, you could buy this for a very quiet low-energy fan for a living room or bedroom. As long as the power knob is under 75% or so, it does not make much noise. Above that however, it's what you'd expect from a fan running at its maximum speed. The knob is on the back of the fan, and is adjustable for as little or as much as you want from 0-100. No more 3 settings! With that out of the way, I love to have a breeze on me in bed and our old fan died on us. The bearings wore out on the old one so I was looking for a replacement. Besides the price, this fan looked like it would do everything I asked of it. It'll tolerate being run all day and all night due to the ball bearings, the power consumption is really low (a claimed 60W at full power, which I almost never use), and it's super quiet. More importantly, this fan produces a serious breeze. And the 10 year warranty is a huge plus, though I'd expect something like that given the asking price. So far, I've had this Vornado propped up on a box so it'll reach our bed (the standard height is about 40 inches, not enough for a pillowtop). This fan has been running more or less nonstop since we bought it about 8 months ago. Other than it could use a cleaning, it still functions just as perfectly as the day we got it. For that, I'd definitely give this model a recommendation. Fun fact: Vornado used to be some sort of turbine engine manufacturer, and this air circulator at times does sound like a (very quiet) jet engine. The only things I can nitpick on this fan are: 1) The power connector comes disconnected easily. Even a kitten could pull it out with no issue. 2) Even though this is an excellent fan, it might be a hard sell at that price. 3) The range of movement is limited, such that (at least mine) does not like to point up. Something probably just needs to be tightened slightly.

I picked up the Vornado 783DC, and it’s quickly become my favorite fan in the house. The airflow on this thing is seriously impressive—it easily moves air across an entire room and keeps everything feeling cooler without blasting you directly in the face like a cheaper fan. The variable speed control is also a huge plus; instead of just a few set levels, you can dial it in exactly where you want it, from whisper-quiet circulation to a strong, room-filling breeze. I also like that the height is adjustable, which makes it really versatile. I can set it lower for the living room or raise it higher if I want to move air above furniture. Even at higher speeds, it’s quieter than I expected for how much air it moves, and honestly it’s the quietest fan I’ve ever owned. Being a DC model, it’s also energy efficient, which gives me peace of mind since it runs for long stretches in the summer. Overall, it’s a powerful, versatile fan that’s built to last and does a far better job than any standard pedestal or box fan I’ve owned.

This review is for the Vornado 783DC Circulator Fan, just putting that since there are multiple products on the page. This thing is pretty impressive. It has a very solid construction, and you can definitely feel how high quality it is. The fan housing is plastic, but it's a very thick, solid plastic. I really think you could throw this thing onto the ground, and it would just bounce; it's beefy. The knob on the back that controls the speed is smooth, so it's not like some fans where it "clicks" for power level 1, power level 2, etc. It is a smooth turning motion that revs up or slows down the fan, and as with the rest of the fan, it feels high quality. Performance-wise, it moves a surprising amount of air. You can turn it on and point it at any area of a room, and you will 100% feel the air circulating around you, even on a lower setting. I have used some circulators that don't work that well unless on max speeds, but that's not the case here. It is fairly quiet up to around 50% percent, but any higher and it does start to ramp up in volume. On max speed, it is incredibly loud, pretty much drowning out most sounds in a smaller room, so this could be a benefit if you plan on using it while sleeping for the white noise. One small complaint I had about it was the height. I had assumed it would be adjustable to be a bit taller, but at 38" tall, it's fairly short. It is adjustable, but only to make it shorter, pretty much down to a table fan height. You also cannot move it left and right, only tilt up and down, which I feel is a bit silly on a fan this price. Overall, I am sort of torn. I think it's a wonderful solid product, but at $189.99 at the time of purchase and review, I sort of feel it's possibly overpriced. It's a great product, but the price is fairly steep. Price aside, though, it's a very nice circulator fan with amazing energy efficiency!

This review is for the Vornado 783DC full size floor fan. Like all Vornado fans, this one is powerful. No remote control and it doesn't oscillate but it tilts. The fan itself is 12". It has a variable speed dial and is reasonably quiet up to half speed. If you work from home, then 3/4 to full speed are too loud for Teams meetings. It's unusually short for a floor fan, 36" from the floor to the top of the fan housing and 22" from the floor to the bottom of the fan. I wouldn't consider the height "adjustable". It comes in 3 pieces and you can elect not to insert the center 12" tube. The metal tubing is held together by heavy duty bolts and is very sturdy and easy to assemble. It's pricey but I bought this model for the energy efficiency...we'll see how that works out when I get the June power bill. The 10 year warranty was also a big factor. I live in California's Central Valley and the fans stay on 24/7 from April/May through Oct/Nov...not exaggerating. Fingers crossed this model saves on the power bill. I have 3 Vornado fans ranging in age from 2 to 4 years old and they all work like new. As long as Vornado maintains their quality, then I won't even consider another brand.

Love this fan the air is cool air . A little noisy when turn to full speed. Good buy.

Functionality: The airflow is fully adjustable from mild breeze to full output, with a variable speed dial at the rear of the fan housing. Stand assembly is simple (2 hex bolts with wrench included), with an option to omit a segment if full height not needed. The weight of the product is not excessive. With a ten-year warranty, the build quality is obviously superb. Stability of the fan on various types of flooring is not an issue, the base forms a wide stance. No remote control function is available, but that could be changed with attaching a third-party switch on the power cord. Thorough cleaning of the fan body is simple, the fan housing grill clips easily detach with assistance of a flat-head screwdriver, and the blade is totally removable. I am very happy with the purchase, and would recommend. The only downside I noted is the sound volume at full fan speed, but this is somewhat expected with the high volume of air being moved.

783dc variable speed-- Lowest setting, 1.2 watts (not moving much air. Really have to hone in to even hear it). At roughly quarter setting, 1.6 watts (slight breeze, enough to dry your eyes and push napkins off a table, only tested about 6 feet away. Feels nice when aimed proper. Hardly audible). At roughly half setting, 3.5 watts. (This is the sweet spot for me. Keeps me cool in a gaming room that gets toasty. Sound is soft and not bad at all) At roughly 3/4 setting, 16.2 watts.(speed really picks up here. Moving a good amount of air, I'm still able to clearly hear what's going on in the house. Average sized home.) At full speed ahead, 55.8watts. (gets loud here. But not unbearable, personal thought of course.) Obviously theres a serious climb in watts after 3/4 setting, this is when the air is seriously moving. I personally use it when gaming and only ever need it at mid settings. I have never needed it beyond half setting. The noise at half setting is not bad at all, unbelievably soft. When it's used on full blast to move lots of the air in the room, it's going to be noisy. It has a dc converter block in the power cord and people complain about it, i don't understand their complaints. Its working its magic to use less power and save you money in the long run.

El control de velocidad tiene un amplio rango pero la primera mitad del control no sirve para nada. En realidad se modula de la mitad para arriba. Tiene un falso contacto con el convertidor de corriente, se ve que es error de diseño. Los pros son que hace menos ruido que otros y dispara bien el aire.

Only flaw is huge noise

The best fan I have ever bought, but if it could be taller would be great.

The Vornado 783DC is a decent cooling option. To clarify, it is not "like an air conditioner" as other reviewers have stated. It does a good job of circulating the air. If the air is hot, you will have hot wind. It does create a nice breeze though. Based on the price, I think it is overpriced for what it is, as it is not a game changer. If I had to choose between this and a silent Rowenta Fan, which I also own, I would go with the Rowenta.

Fan makes humming noise that makes quieter settings annoying seems like a good fan ignoring noise but definitely shouldn't be humming if it's a DC motor, especially for the price not sure if I got w faulty one or what.
