This little fan is absolutely "FAN"TASTIC! I was originally going to purchase the OPOLAR portable desk fan for 16.99, as I sit at my desk a lot and wanted a fan for while I was on my computer or going through mail. I had it on my shopping list to purchase. But then I was sitting in the living room watching TV and fanning myself with a cardboard FedEx envelope, when I thought, "Well, I should ALSO get one of those hand fans I saw while I was shopping for the Opolar desk fan, because it I need something for over here, too". I also do a lot of reading--books or my Kindle--while sitting there. So I went back online and when I looked at this HandFan, I saw that not only could the handle be converted to a stand, so that you could use it as a desk fan, but it also had THREE speeds as opposed to the 2 the Opolar has, AND the reviews were fantastic! I find they are very much deserved! This fan is GREAT! I use it for both areas and also when working in the kitchen! I haven't even needed the higher speeds. Low works great for when you are just sitting. I will use higher for when I come in from yardwork or dog walks and want to cool off quickly. It is very quiet, and keeps me cool, less anxious and less grouchy from the heat! I raised my thermostat to save on our electric bill, and now I am very comfortable and saving on my bill WAY more than the 13.99 one time cost for this little fan.
I did have an issue at first with the fan not working on just the battery. It only worked with the charger in. The customer service was just great, though. They had told me to remove the plastic sheet in the battery case, but I could not figure out how to open the case. I thought you had to use a sharp instrument and I didn't want to scratch the plastic. I told them this, and they wrote back right away with diagrams showing how to open it. Voila, problem solved, and I just have to say that they were so respectful, courteous and very concerned whether I had any more questions, and that I was satisfied with their response. Nice people! I also love the color. Blue fan blades encased in a black fan grill and black handle (which is also the battery power bank). I cannot yet comment on how long the battery lasts, but other reviewers have said it has a great long life before needing recharging. I take it away to use in other rooms on the battery, but just put it back on the USB charger plugged into my computer when I get back to my desk, which is very easy, so I have yet to discover the battery length. We are going on a long trip soon, so will test out the battery length then. Overall I am super, duper pleased with this purchase and the company representatives and their support. I highly recommend this product!
OK, it is nearly 3 months later, and I have used this fan every day. I count on it, as it has been in the mid 90's to 102 degrees this summer. IT DID FINALLY STOP WORKING ABRUPTLY !!! I was pretty unhappy, because I couldn't figure out why it just stopped working. The charger was plugged in, so I didn't understand why it didn't work. I wrote an email to the company, as they had been SUPER helpful before. They were NOT helpful this time. They didn't seem to understand what I was saying. I was even back on the Amazon site, looking for another fan to purchase. Then the company emailed me again, to say they were sorry they misunderstood, and then proceeded to answer a completely unrelated question I asked them when I first got the fan! Well, I was frustrated, so I fiddled with it again.
From the time it came new out of the box, the metal end of the charger that goes into the fan was bent, I had tried to bend it back to straight, but I guess that weakened it. So, then when the fan just quit on its own as it was being charged, I was fiddling with the end, pushing it in to see if the contact wasn't good enough, when the metal end BROKE OFF INTO THE FAN'S CHARGER RECEPTACLE !!! And I could not remove it! It was stuck!
I asked my husband to see if he could remove it and try to fix it. Well, he did finally get the metal end removed after I gave him a needle nose pliers to use, but the cable was of course unfixable. So, we just used a regular Android charging cable which was an extra we had, and that has worked just fine. The charging cable they sent really was of very poor quality. In comparison, the one I'm using now is much sturdier, and it would be pretty impossible to bend the metal end.
So, I AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE MY FAN BACK! I really do love it!
I am not happy with the poor quality of the charger that was sent, but I am really glad I had another extra charger around to solve my problem.
The seller should really change the company who supplies their charger cables. I would check the cable you get, and make sure it is of good quality, and if not, ask for a new one before the 30 day period lapses. So, I would downgrade to 4 stars, but it wasn't that big a deal to just use another cable. Other people might think differently, but for now, I'm still happy with the fan itself. Very nice 3 speeds and very portable.
I will downgrade my rating of the seller, although at least they were courteous and not at all defensive.
Ive only had this fan since the first week of the month and already, the charger is broken. and the actual fan unit wont charge at all even with 3 different and brand new charger cords. Waste of my money!
Update: 9/19/2018
So i just wanted to give an update to my original review. I just have to say... I am amazed and completely satisfied with this company as well as the product. After my product broke and informed the company, they immediately refunded me my money as well as sent me a brand new product that worked very very well. And Even though i was trying to just forget about the whole thing, the company has made multiple attempts to contact me so that they can help fix whatever issue i was having. They really stand by their product and really make sure that the customers are satisfied.
As far as the fan goes, it works very very well like I said earlier. It has three settings, high, medium, low. It charges really fast. And the battery lasts quite a long while. Would definitely recommend and buy this product again.
Love this little fan! So handy for lots of situations. It has three settings, and I love how strongly the third level blows. I would’ve given it five stars but the hanging wire was very flimsy and didn’t work well. Wasn’t much of an issue since I held it or used it folded in a sitting position, but it would’ve been a nice option.
I am forever warm and even hot in so many places. I have used this everywhere in doctors offices, while getting my nails done, you name it and I’ve used it there. This inexpensive fan has been so fantastic for me. It fits in my pocketbook and has three speeds. I only wish I found this sooner.
Useful! Since I bought it I never realized how powerful the highest setting was, it felt like sticking my hand out the window of a moving car. Rechargeable, and portable, it's definitely a must for the summer or hot areas you may visit, as long as the humidity isnt a problem( it doesnt affect the fan, but you dont want hot humid air hitting you). Again great device, I bought 2- one for an uncle and one for myself.

I read every review about every product and I normally don’t need write reviews, but this fan deserved one! This fan has 3 settings for how intense you want the air to be and it was amazing. I’m a lifeguard and I’m always in the sun and sadly getting some sunburns here and there. This fan is perfect size and cooled me down on the 91 degree days and helped cool down sunburns as well. IT IS SUPER QUIET, if that is a big factor for you. The colors are cute and stylish. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FAN 12/10
Nice portable mini fan . It has three settings . I do like the power that comes behind it . Really sting fan. Fold it to sit is a great thing too thanks .
I love this mini handheld fan ! it works great and it arrived very fast!
Use these for soccer and swim meets. I bought one and eventually bought 2 more so everyone wouldn't fight over them.
I like this fan because it is small and that it can sit on a surface. Would purchase again.
