Not a fan of this one!   August 12, 2008
D. Coles (Albuquerque NM)
The fan moves a good amount of air, but the battery compartment design and hinges are incredibly bad. Batteries won't fit without major effort to force them into the slots, power from batteries is lost every time the hinge is moved, and hinges are both fragile feeling and stiff to move. After 6 months, the plastic that the battery holders are made of is deforming so that the batteries are loose and no longer make contact. Good idea, but incredibly bad engineering makes this a loser! Works OK as a 120v fan with the adapter, but if you want a small wall-voltage fan, there are several lighter, cheaper, and quieter fans on the market.

the hinges broke the second time I opened it.

Then, there was some kind of short in the circuitry. The fan ran for two second, shut off and never ran again.

Cheap plastic parts and cheap construction make it hard to pack 8 heavy D batteries inside of it. Don't waste your time or money.

Don't waste your money on this fan, even if they were giving it away for free! You can wave your hand and get a bette breeze then you get from this fan. I read the review and bought two. You get what you pay for. A tissue doesn't move if you put it about 3 feet away from the fan at high speed.

I was surprised to see how big this fan was and it took 8 "D" Batterys.
I returned it and found a much smaller version with 2 speeds and only takes 2 "D" batterys. I was loking for a fan for my desk at work.

I purchased this for my son who is serving in the Marines in Iraq. The power goes out a few times a week and in 100+ degree weather can make life very uncomfortable. He loves this fan and its battery powered capability. He says it works great and makes the weather more tolerable.
He is enjoying it because it is powerful and quiet.
