TRANSOM Window Fan with 4 Speeds, Remote Control, Reversible Exhaust Mode, Weather Resistant Case, Black, Whole Room

First off let me tell you this review is about the Vornado TRANSOM Window Fan, and no other fan. It's not the Alexa compliant fan. It's the regular transom fan. It puts out a lot of air (I called Vornado before I bought it; they say it's approximately 1300 cfm, which feels about right to me) and it's fairly quiet. I slept with it about 9 feet from my head last night. Our low was 58 degrees up here at 4000+ feet in the Southern Blue Ridge, and I was very comfortable. There's a nice remote that comes with it, and you can turn off "AUTO MODE" which is the thermostatically controlled mode, which I did. I just want it on, and if I'm cold I'll turn it down or off. It's not an air conditioner. We have an air conditioner, but I live out in the country and I want clean outside air coming in my house as much as possible. If it's nice and cool outside, I don't need to close up the house and run the air conditioner. It won't immediately lower the temperature in your house, since your house is big, holds a lot of heat, and you, your family, your pets, the stove, the electrical things you are running in your house, and the sun hitting the outside walls and roof generate a lot of heat. Air conditioners make it happen by blowing very cold air, across coils that are freezing temperatures or even lower. 60 degree outside air just doesn't quickly cool your house down. However, if that nice cool night air is blowing right in your bedroom, you will feel cool obviously. If it's 90 degrees out, I seriously doubt any fan is going to blow 90 degree air in your house and cool it off. At the highest setting, and 9 feet away, the air coming from the fan is about as forceful as you would want. It's not a weak fan as others have alleged. We have a small house, and the windows are small, but the fan fits nicely inside the screen. You close the window down on top of the fan, and it's stable. We had some rain last night, and no water came in the house while the fan was running. The modular foam that fits next to the fan does a good job of occluding the remaining space. I don't plan to leave the fan there in this downstairs window when I'm away. If I were to want to do that, I would probably make a better gap filler with plywood,etc, and find something to secure the window from being open from the outside. I think I can turn it off, remove it, stow it, and put it back in place when I'm home in a minute or so. So, it's a very nice fan. I have had other Vornado products, and still do. I trust the company and that's one of the reasons I bought it. Of course I can't say anything about longevity. The fan has been running 24 hrs non stop, on high, and I detect no noise or other problem with it. So, I don't know why others have posted negative reviews. Either they think they're getting an air conditioner, or maybe the reviews are bogus to begin with. This is a fan, not an air conditioner.

I originally ordered one of these window fans, and it worked exactly as expected. Compared to other window fans I’ve owned, this one is much slimmer and noticeably quieter, which immediately stood out. Performance-wise, it’s excellent. You can clearly feel the airflow throughout the room, and the four speed settings give you good control. I also like that the airflow can be set to intake or exhaust, and the temperature control is a great feature—it automatically turns the fan off once the room reaches the desired temperature. The included remote is another plus, making it easy to adjust settings from anywhere in the room. My only long-term concern is cleaning, since dust will eventually collect inside the fan, but that’s true for any fan and something I’ll deal with later. Overall, I really love the slim design and quiet operation. I liked it enough that I ended up buying two more for other rooms.

It works pretty well, and has its pros but also cons. Pros for this are as follows. ⭐- Pretty quiet It's not very noticeable on low to medium; high is just a hum, but not annoying. ⭐- Moves a decent amount of air The air is highly directional, though, basically jetting out directly in front of the device. (Please take a look at cons though, because there are cases where you won't get as much out of it unless things are done) ⭐- small profile and sleek look It blends in well and doesn't take much of your view from outside. The touchscreen controls are quite nice and responsive. No worries about a button failing on you over time as some other products. Cons are the following to consider, ⭐- Design might not be appropriate for your kind of window (also a fix for it) Because of the way it's meant to sit in the window frame, there may be a large opportunity for air to come inside. I had to use padded weather stripping on the top and bottom to give a tighter seal to stop cold drafts and such. The lip at the bottom is the main issue. (could've been solved if they produced this with foam pads at the top and bottom to create a better seal.) ⭐- Reduced speed in a closed room Depending on how sealed your room is, this product might move more or less air. It shines when there is a way for the air it's pushing in to escape, but suffers if there isn't. If possible, to get the best out of it, you can crack a window somewhere else, or just open a door if the room is sealed too well. (Really wish it came with a dual system so it can do both input and output at the same time, just down to design. Though it would cost more, and more complicated means more likely to have issues, but would have been great to have the option.) ⭐- Insects may get in (also a fix for it) If you are in an area with lots of little critters flying or crawling about, this product doesn't come with an insect mesh to stop them from walking through. Although if it's on, it seems to do an okay job of deterring most. I ended up getting some mosquito netting and weatherproof tape to cut and cover the outdoor air intake/output. After that, most I've seen is a nat once in a while. ⭐- Rain leakage (also a fix for it) Partially responsible due to the fitting in the window and the seal. The noteworthy areas are the sides of the product. I've noticed that when it rains, because of the design, the sides can let water leak into the interior as most of it drips down to the bottom lip of the device, where it ends up inside. High wind scenarios make it worse. ( Solved this by getting extra-thick weatherstripping and wrapping it around the top, bottom, and sides of the fan where the window meets it. making sure that the cut seam is on the middle top surface of the device. Plug the sides of the window and device tightly.) ⭐- Let in the draft When off, it will still let in outside air draft. Which could be good or bad. Bad if it's too humid out or cold, but it doesn't stop fresh air completely on the good side. (can probably get some kind of fabric velcro and cover the inside air slot or something, haven't thought of a fix that would not be janky)

This is a great fan. Anyone giving it a bad review is expecting it to be an AC unit, which it isn't. Not as drafty as a typical window fan, the spacers double ast the packaging (which I love), it's quiet, sleek, and does it's job well

Precio justo por la calidad del equipo excelente desempeño con muy buenos resultados

I mis-read the width, this unit is wider than my window by two inches, as I measured the wrong area. Anyhow, using the the included foam blocks to fill under the unit it all fit perfectly to fill the gaps. The unit simply sits on the window ledge, flush to the surface of the window opening. A few small bungee cords attached to scews (picture frame anchors) it easily holds the unit in place with no movement. With this placement, I can even pull the whole unit sightly forward and close the window behind it with the bungee cords. It Works fine.. its quiet, but not silent. I've had quieter fans. Air flow is good, but Static pressure seems to be low, anything blocking airflow like a closed door greatly drops its ability to move air. Crossflow fans like this are effecient, but lack a strong ability to push air through restrictions or into closed rooms.

At first didn't think it would make my room cold enough, felt like it wasn't moving much air on highest setting. But I was wrong and this thing is awesome, have had to turn it down to 1. It may not feel like it's moving alot of air because of how quiet it is (almost too quiet for me lol) and the force of the air coming out but it is because the area the airs coming out of is so much bigger than other window fans

logra extraer el aire del cuarto, solo queda ver cuanto dura funcionando por bastante tiempo.

This fan is awesome. It was easy to install vertically in my bedroom window. I love that the flow can be reversed with a simple push of a button. The remote is also a great feature. Even at the lowest speed, there is significant airflow and it is very quiet. Perfect for sleeping. I would definitely recommend this fan.
