I am extremely pleased with my Vornado V6 personal circulator. It's quiet, efficient and durable. It's also attractively contemporary in appearance. I can adjust it so it blows cool air up, down or turn it to direct the air flow to either side. As small as it is, it does seem to circulate the air in the entire room. I'm convinced it's the best fan/air circulator on the market. I don't mind if it cost a little more. The quality and value makes it well worth the price. I plan on purchasing a V8 circulator soon.
