I'm posting this on all Vornado listings on Amazon, as all potential purchasers need to be aware of the shortcomings of Vornado's warranty policy. I purchased two fans from Vornado direct. Both were larger, more expensive units (280 & 285) that had either ten year or lifetime... more info
Customer Review: this fan is very well built and very stylish looking but it moves very little air for the amount of wind noise it makes!i returned it and it is taking amazon a loooooooooooooong time to put the funds back on my mastercard!
