Year of the Twister---Vornado Electronic VortexHeat

by bluehawq Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Oct 06 '00
Pros: Whole room, constant temp. heat. Cool to the touch and cuts off if tipped over
Cons: Price is a tad steep.
Sometimes, even with central heat, there is one room that seems to have this stubborn vent installed. Our two son's room is one of these ones that feels like you just stepped over the line and entered the North Pole. No matter what we did,...

High Tech Tootsie Warmer

by johnshepler , Nov 27 '00
Pros: Solid state temperature control for versatility and reliability. Famous Vortex action.
Cons: Constantly running fan can create a draft.
Do you work in one of those offices that is NEVER the right temperature? Or do you have a demonic room in your house that will not get warm even when the furnace is running full blast with the thermostat set to "equatorial rain forest"? No...

Let's heat it up, baby!

by JKportland , Sep 26 '00
Pros: Warms a smaller area well, light and portable
Cons: Expensive, will not warm a large area well
Ok..don't get excited. This is a space heater we are talking about here! We have owned the Vornado Electronic VortexHeat space heater for about three years now. Presently I am using it in my son's room as a noisemaker by running it on the "fan...

A Great Heater that works!

by Triedit , Oct 19 '00
Pros: Quiet and heats as promised.
Cons: Color choice would be nice.
My wife and I purchased a Casita Travel Trailer. We did not opt for the propane heater because we were told that the area in which we lived was too warm and the unit would over heat the area too quickly. We decided to purchase a small heater to use in...

Old Man winter was knocking....

by laneybug , Dec 20 '00
Pros: Warms the room, quiet, portable
Cons: None come to mind so far
Two weeks ago Seattle had record low temps for several days in a row. The news taunted viewers with the warning of freezing pipes and deadly black ice on the roads during the morning commute. As nightfall came, so did the blanket of frost outside.

Suprisingly warm!

by wc201 , Nov 17 '00
Pros: Create just enough heat, safety features
Cons: seems under powered
I have lived in my apartment about two and half year. I have never felt cold in winter. I could wear shorts without worrying about catching cold. I should thank the hot water pipe that goes vertically on the side of my room. Then, one day I decided...

Heats whole room well, safely

by joleenca , Feb 17 '01
Pros: safe design, constant temperature maintenance, warm air output rather that hot
Cons: a little slow to heat entire room
The Vornado IntelliTEMP ( does an excellent job maintaining the entire room at a constant temperature. I am using it to heat my bedroom (15'x15') instead of heating the whole house with central air. The fan blows out warm air, not hot, but this means...

Effective, even, whole-room heating, very comfortable.

by teamsporttrac , May 01 '06
Pros: Keeps entire room an even, consistently warm temperature.
Cons: Expensive, no remote control.
I purchased this heater to replace a small, worn-out space heater and am quite pleased with the comfort level it provides. Because of it's whole-room heating characteristics, this heater should be called a "room heater" and not a "space heater." ...

Heater for baby's room!

by ironbar , Dec 28 '04
Pros: Great air movement. Super quiet. High heat output.
Cons: A tad pricey, but still worth it IMO.
We needed a space heater for just the baby's room as she was born in October, and we didn't want to use the whole house furnace to warm just ONE room! So I looked at over 16 different heaters and finally decided on the Vornado based onopinions posted...

Best available model out there.

by rick_in_kc , Dec 08 '01
Pros: Best and quietest model available with blower; maintains steady temperature; safe; cool to the touch.
Cons: Expensive (but worth it!)
I have tried almost every model of electric space heater. This is the absolute best heater available of the blower type, and my absolute favorite of all types. One reviewer here stated this unit makes them feel cold because of the blower. This well...

Does the job

by johnscook , Oct 06 '00
Pros: Small, efficient
Cons: Low thermostat still makes room hot
UPDATE (05/11/2006): My Vornado is still working reliably for about 4-5 years now. About 2 years ago my Vornado unit was recalled for a faulty switch that could cause a fire. I never had any problems with it, but I returned the unit (during warm ...

The Mighty Warmer

by MarianMS , Oct 07 '00
Pros: Circulates warm air so there are not cold spots.
Cons: Cannot be used in large rooms. Would have to use two of these heaters.
I would recommend this space heater because it circulates the heat like a ceiling fan and removes all cold spots in a small room. I use it in my family room off the garage, which is really the basement and floor is carpeting and padding over concrete....
