Use coupon Welcome20 at checkout for $20 off to reach the 49.99 price.

I know it's yet another QVC deal, but this is a good deal even before the coupon and then it's amazing after it. Lowest ever on amazon shows as 91.56. Currently $100 on sale at Amazon, $129 other places. Used are 80-92. This is 69.99 from QVC on special right now and with the coupon drops to 49.99 before tax.

Please note that this is the DC powered version, no set speeds, it's adjustable to any speed and the motor will be quieter because of this and it will also last forever. (Or at least a really long time) 10 year warranty, and you can't beat the price even with random letter brands on Amazon for a DC powered fan.

Overall to me this would be quite expensive at $100 for a fan, $70 is better and for $50 I have one on the way!

Any idea if the speed could be set and cycled on/off with a smart receptacle?

I am virtually positive the answer is yes, the fan speed seems to be set with a rheostat type dial, twist to the speed you desire. No electronics to get in the way.

I will know for sure once mine arrives as I have a smart outlet to test on. I had a fan we recently got did of that every power outage, or smart outlet use, it would start back up on high. Super annoying.

Crazy good deal. If I needed another one, I would be all over this.

Elwood2 -- You could use a smart on/off switch, but definitely not a smart dimmer --- at least out of the box. The DC fan still plugs into a brick to convert to AC. Even so, the DC motor control is on the fan, not on the brick.

Thinking aloud here but if I wanted to make this fan fully "smart" with adjustable level, I would mount an Arduino controlled stepper motor that turned the knob on the fan.

Vornados are awesome. I already have several other models still going strong but this is a great price and can never have too many with summers getting hotter and hotter .

It should work. I do it with a 633DC. Works great.

I got this deal... I really like these DC fans with variable speed control!!! Will be nice for the TX summer.

Seems to be a record low for this as far as I can tell. Note that this is the DC motor model, not the normal AC motor version which is cheaper and runs around $80. This is $100-129 everywhere and runs $80 or more used or refurbished.

Not that I can see. It adjusts in height, but only a handful of inches

It does appear shorter than your average stormtrooper.
