10 best desktop fans

The home desktop fan of Chinese origin is a personalized cooling device. The owner will feel air vibrations only at arm's length, it is pointless to take a model to ventilate even a small room. The device blows softly and silently, so it will not interfere with colleagues in the open space and close people if you use it for home. The diameter of the blades is 23 cm, while the mechanism is placed in a disproportionately large lattice, which is not entirely justified in terms of aesthetics and ergonomics.

Judging by the reviews, the build quality leaves much to be desired. Small backlashes of parts are observed, the buttons are pressed hard, and the motor cannot cope with the load when the body is directed upwards.At the same time, high-quality materials are selected, which gives hope for a long trouble-free use. The declared power is 25 W, but, according to users, the device is slightly weaker.

The desktop axial fan is made in a traditional style in black, which makes it a stylish piece of furniture. Large blades provide a powerful airflow, the speed of which can be adjusted by choosing one of two blowing modes. The device works stably and economically, consumes 15 watts. Blades are made of strong impact-resistant plastic. For the safety of using the device, the working unit is enclosed in a metal front grille with small distances between the bars.

The fan is installed on a stable base; if necessary, the device can be hung on a shelf above the table using a clip, which the manufacturer placed at the base. Mechanical fan control, you can adjust the angle of inclination. Users note that the device works without vibration and noise, produces a powerful air flow at a short distance, compact size and easy placement with a clothespin.

The bladed axial fan attracts attention with its compact dimensions and stylish design of metal legs and a protective grille in brass look. Plastic elements are made of durable ABS polymer, which does not deform, has an antistatic effect - dust does not settle on the grilles and blades.The diameter of the working unit is only 18 cm, but the blades are wide, curved, which allows the device to stably issue a directed air flow, and refresh well. The device requires 2.5 W to operate; it can be connected to a laptop and other devices via a USB connector.

It works silently, you can adjust the angle of airflow by tilting the working unit. There are rubber pads on the legs, so the device stands steadily, does not move from vibration. Users appreciate the small dimensions of the fan and at the same time powerful airflow. They note the convenience of additional power supply via a USB connector, the fan, when connected to a laptop, serves as an additional cooler.

The table fan is equipped with an integrated hanging clip, which means that it can be mounted in a horizontal and vertical plane - both on a table and on furniture - even if there is no free space at all. The axis can be tilted and rotated 360⁰, which is important for local cooling. Sometimes owners use a model for blowing computer equipment to prevent it from overheating. Thanks to the built-in overheating protection, the mini-device is able to work for many hours in a row.

Commentators highlight the curious properties of the device, revealed during operation. So, it was experimentally revealed that when the product is turned upside down, the motor stalls. And over time, the mechanism begins to creak, and the economy-class plastic blades gradually straighten out.Of the positive qualities, they note low power (25 W), a stable rubberized base that dampens vibrations, saving space with a clothespin on the base, and a neat appearance.

The desktop three-bladed 3D fan takes up little space, is safe to use, the blades are protected on both sides by a metal grill. The diameter of the working block is 24 cm, the blades are wide, which allows you to create a comfortable atmosphere in 2-3 minutes, the device uses Air Flow technology for the fastest possible cooling. The power of the device is 40 W, which is an excellent indicator for a desktop model. The fan works silently, you can choose 3 blowing speeds. You can control the device from the touch panel or remote control.

Buyers emphasize the advantages of the model - a convenient rotary mechanism, the ability to direct the air flow vertically. They also note the presence of an LED display and a timer that allows you to set the mode and blowing time for a maximum of 7.5 hours, which is enough for the night.

The inclined plastic fan is mounted only on a clothespin, that is, there is no desktop stand. It works from the network, differs in mechanical control, which is not surprising for its price category. The axial design, it is also axial, makes the air flow move along the axis of the impeller, which is driven by a motor. And since the impeller has a high speed, a large volume of air passes through the blades.Such a ventilation system for the home is simple, quiet, compact and durable. In addition, high efficiency is ensured at any location (vertically and horizontally).

The owners are satisfied with the functionality and believe that the product has no flaws at this price. Some commentators have been using equipment for more than 4 years, so they actively recommend the device as inexpensive and reliable. The products comply with the technical requirements of the Customs Union and have passed the EAC Certification.

A small column-type fan with a 180⁰ rotation fits on the very edge of the desktop or even on the windowsill (only 15x15 cm at the base, height - 40 cm). Due to the radial design and reduced speed of the blades, the device turned out to be compact and quiet. Usually the model is taken to the office for comfortable work at the computer in the heat. Suitable for home, to ventilate not the whole room, but its separate part. There are several speeds with step adjustment: the first two are gentle, silent and suitable even for those who are afraid of catching a cold. On the third, the device produces a noticeable air flow and starts to make noise up to 60 dB.

The product has electronic control and a display that shows the air temperature, which, by the way, affects the intensity of ventilation in auto mode. There is no programmer in automatic mode, only preset values, and this is disappointing for some owners.

The products of the Swedish concern "Electrolux" are well known to fans of innovation. Even the simplest climate control equipment is not inferior to more advanced units in terms of comfort. Engineers have aerodynamically shaped the Smart Sphere into a conventional desktop fan, and it handles 1,500 cubic meters of air per hour almost silently. The 60⁰ horizontal auto-slide, together with the invisible swivel mechanism, is very smooth and aesthetically pleasing, and most importantly, imperceptibly, provides coolness throughout the room. The recommended airflow area is up to 24 sq.m.

Blow UP - the function of pushing a powerful air flow up under 90⁰. The developers believe that this is the most effective way to get coolness not only locally, but throughout the entire room space. The maximum power consumption is 35 W. Home equipment from Electrolux works with high quality: according to the warranty card, the user is entitled to 24 months of trouble-free operation.

The aesthetes' craving for beauty, functionality and technical excellence is well understood by the Swiss company Stadler. The Charly fan was designed by Matti Walker and was awarded the international IF Design Award. The author was inspired by the theme of freedom, aircraft of the 20th century and the work of Richard Bach, and these references are clearly visible in the product. The brushed, all-metal zinc/aluminum body stands firmly on the stand, which is important because the instrument weighs 3.5 kg. Three blades distill 3,300 cubic meters per hour, so indoors up to 40 sq.m.will be fresh and comfortable.

The reviews say that the product is ideal for a loft-style home, but the appearance is unobtrusive and fits into any modern interior. The 36 cm desktop compact blows the room perfectly, and the tilt and swivel functions allow you to direct the airflow to a specific area.

A portable fan with a clip and a table stand is mounted where it is convenient for the owner. The strong anti-slip clamp allows you to install the device even on mirrored shelves, crossbeams and smooth table tops. It is very easy to find the perfect angle of inclination - the design provides for a rotation of 360⁰ both horizontally and vertically. Copper filament brushless motor saves energy, rotates smoothly and runs quietly.

Just one click on the control button will provide soft airflow, two clicks will give vigorous cooling, and three will definitely get rid of the summer heat. But the main difference of the device lies in the built-in 2000 mAh lithium battery. It supports up to 6 hours of battery life. The protective mesh can be removed for cleaning with a damp or dry cloth. The quality of the ABS plastic is up to the mark, as is the color scheme of the equipment: there are dusty shades of green, brick, azure and pearl.
