When my Costco model stopped working they were unable to even source one from Costco because they had sold out so they offered me a comparable (in size/CFM) model.
Motors in Vornados are what make them. Cheaper the model, weaker the motor, less life span, less CFM, weaker air flow.
The "large" model Costco was selling (comparable to the $100 version Vornado was selling) was SO much noisier, less airflow, yet had similar CFM ratings.
I love Costco and Vornado - recommend both but would not buy a Vornado from Costco would buy it on sale from Vornado and get their made in USA models with a 10 year warranty
That said, as a general statement, Costco will not accept a subpar product and they are too large and powerful for ANY manufacturer to want to piss off. If they find another manufacturer to provide a similar product, shoppers will not go somewhere else to find this Vornado fan. They will buy the other brand from Costco. In the thousands. Vornado is quite simply not cheaping out on a fan under these circumstances, it just isn't in their best interest.
The specs are what they are and will be accurate. Costco slaps their satisfaction guarantee on it and one of the most prolific return policies in existence. I'm not saying you're lying, but it's entirely possible that you're being hoodwinked by a manufacturer that would prefer you buy their item retail from them at a higher markup than a Costco model that they make less money on.
Does anyone know if this costs same in-store or they have it at a lower price like how it usually is with most items at Costco? If cost is same in-store then I might just place an online order. Thank you

But buying from Costco makes the warranty point moot.
I use it when I'm on my treadmill.
I wish it had a remote.

I took my vornado DC apart after getting it to peek inside, and sort of committed to buying vornado DC in the future. They are noticeably better.
