Yes this is a review of the Vornado Heavy Duty fan. I bought this fan with hopes it'd quietly blow enough to keep the mosquitoes from being able to land, penetrate, suck and cause irritation and itching. Yes indeed it does! My ceiling fans weren't enough and though Deep Woods Off kinda stuff was effective, I just want to sit on my patio at sunset with a bev and shake off my day's chaos without spraying on a layer of stinky sheen. Perfect! Mosquito free comfort cooling all in one.

Awesome fan
I bought this fan to replace my old shop fan and it’s been great. Better then I expected.
So impressed with the fan I bought for my house. Big thing for me made in the USA

Saved a whole lot of time from having to use the Air Conditioner after dark.
Actually, I have 2 of these fans. First and foremost, it has saved me a lot of time from having to use the air conditioner after dark. And it has really helped keep my electricity usage way down. Early on this past summer, I went to my brothers' beach house in Galveston for 3 days This worked very well when the air conditioning went out in the beach house.

Made in the USA is the best part
I've owned these fans for about 10yrs, the 953 primarily and a few smaller ones. I've only had one fail however, it was subject to drywall dust and moisture. This fan is Made in the USA and the craftsmanship is very different than the 953, the plastic housing density is thicker and the motor itself appears more precision and heavier duty than the 953. The metal stand has a good feel meaning, not thin metal. The fan must be attached to the stand, IHMO they should do this at the factory. The power cord is a three prong end and the cord itself is a thicker gauge than the 953. The airflow between the two models is comparable and the fan noise is about the same.
I will be purchasing the 293 over the 953 in the future, the main reason is Made in the USA and the motor. As noted, i've own the 953 for years and these fans run 24x7 in my house and i've only had one fail so, i'm hoping the 293 gives me the same reliable service.

If your looking for a fan to keep your garage cool on a hot day, this is the fan to buy. Perfect for what I needed it for. Circulates air much better than a box fan.

Vornado-293 heavy duty large air circulator
This is my second Vornado. The first one is still working great. I have a big bedroom that doesn’t cool like the rest of my house. I purchased this one and the air circulation is beyond great! Quiet and easy to clean. Couldn’t have made a better purchase for Oklahoma heat. Keeps me very cool!

Good Value
Price is what you pay, value is what you get. Well made fan, worth the price. This is our second one. The first one has been working well for years. I have them in the attic to keep it cooler in the summer. The only downside is keeping the angle in the choose place. The knobs on the side don’t tighten enough.

Heavy Duty
I love this fan! I have a golden retriever and I needed a heavy duty fan that was easy to clean and keep a room cool. The fan has incredible air circulation and keeps an entire room cool. I don’t have an air conditioner and I don’t need one with this fan!

Happy With Purchase
The unit is not oversized, so it works well in an apartment. It is surprisingly quiet for how powerful it is. It really moves the air! I turned it off for about an hour during the hottest part of the day (a day of extreme heat) and the room became very warm, even though I had the air conditioner on. Once I turned the fan back on the room temperature dropped dramatically. I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it.

A good fan for hot days
This fan provides a powerful air flow which is why I've always liked good Vornado fans. Not all models meet my needs--but this one is worth the price. To reduce A/C & electric bill costs is what I want and this one delivers.

5 ++++ stars
Received this today. It was VERY well packaged and easy assembly. Quality built materials and like that you can take front off and the blade to clean easily. Very smooth control, quiet, and a lot of air moves for its size! Love that it is at least assembled in USA. Thinking about it? GET IT!

THIS IS THE ONLY FAN TO GET!!
This fan is worth every penny! I have purchased several cheaper fans that were worthless. I use my garage as my art studio and this is perfect for removing the strong odors. I also have one in my backyard to keep mosquitoes away…I have had that fan outside for 3 years and it is still just as great as when it was new. There are no metal parts to rust and 3 speeds. And high speed is actually high speed!! I never write review but this fan is that good.

Doesn’t appear to move air more than average. The stand/hardware aren’t perfect fits, so it tilts a lot unless you tie it up.
