The picture doesn't show these as corded and need to be in an outlet. The product specifications state it but that can be easily overlooked

Just a heads up for those that want the honest review. YouTube has a couple of reviews but they were amateurish in nature and didn't give the best depiction of a real world experience. My experiences with the ones I grabbed during the last deal a couple of weeks ago are as follows:

- They have good weight and balance and are solid on a flat surface. There are no detectible vibrations which makes these ideal for a desktop or office setup.

- Air output is just 'meh'. If you have one or two on a desk nearby, you will absolutely feel the airflow but don't expect it to be blowing your papers away, even on level II. For comparison, I have plenty of 5" or 6" USB desk fans that produce probably twice the airflow of these fans.

- These are QUIET! They may not be very powerful but they are far more quiet than a standard USB desk fan. They still make noise but it is a much lower sound (think of the sound of air coming through your vents while the AC is running). It very easily transitions to the background which is a nice change of pace from your typical USB fans and their high pitched whines.

- the blades are made of fabric and will go flaccid when the fan is not in use. This is kind of cool as you know the fan will pretty much always be perfectly balanced and vibration free since there is no Ridgid blade to get knocked out of alignment.

- I would have preferred these fans be USB powered instead of needing to be used with a wall outlet (purely for versatility to be used with battery packs on the go) but honestly, if you are using these in an office, bedroom, or desk for up close airflow like it seems they are best suited for, you are likely to have a spare outlet anyway.

Ultimately, I'm torn on them. I bought two pair of these fans and have opened two. I was going to take them to work but the desks I use are in a high volume environment so having more airflow without concern of the USB fan sounds is preferred. I have one in the kitchen and one in the master bathroom but unless you are within a few feet, directly in front of it, it didn't really do much by way of air circulation.

Hopefully this helps some folks understand just what you are getting. It is a perfect design if you are often seated at a desk or work in an office space because you can position one or two of them to be at just the right distance from where you sit. Otherwise, it is a little harder to find uses for these if you will not plan to be somewhat stationary to enjoy the airflow. I'm sure there are a million useful ways specific to individuals to use these other than what I have outlined. This is just my personal opinion provided in an attempt to provide helpful insight.

Vornado brand fans have been around longer than Tornado brand fans

They probably think Vornado is a knockoff of Tornado branded fans which would be wrong since Vornado came first.

If they think these aren't real Vornado fans, Vornado disagrees https://www.vornado.com/shop/circ...rsonal-fan
