My wife picked up a Compact Vornado a couple years ago, noting that it cost more than other small household fans. But once we used it, we knew why. Since then, we've bought Compact Vornados for every room in the house, given them as gifts (great for grads heading to college or first apartment), and I keep one in my car for music gigs and the occasional noisy hotel room or snoring roommate - put it on high near your bed and you stay cool and undisturbed. THANKS for such a great product!!! Glad I finally looked at literature that comes with them to see your full line of products!
