I have a few of these and love them: Quiet, effective (moving a lot of air) and durable. None of them have died although one from years ago has a little trouble getting started on the lowest setting. But really good. Way better than the expensive, loud, less effective Dyson vertical fan I have. Read more

For the size of the fan it blows hard. It blows harder than most fans I have ever had. Very sturdy construction. It's not too small or too big. Worth the money and I would buy again. Read more

I was hesitant to buy a desk fan, assuming all small fans are either noisy or weak. But this Amazon Basics 11-Inch Air Circulator Fan has completely changed my mind! It’s not just another desk fan it’s a game-changer for staying cool, whether I’m working, sleeping, or even relaxing on the couch. What Stands Out: 1. Compact Size Meets Mighty Performance: Despite its lightweight design (just 3 lbs), this fan packs a serious punch! The three speed settings allow you to choose between a gentle breeze or a full-blown air circulator, perfect for any situation. It’s small enough to sit discreetly on my desk but powerful enough to keep my whole workspace comfortable. 2. Effortless Versatility: The 90-degree tilt head is a feature I didn’t know I needed. I’ve used it to direct airflow upwards during warm nights, and it even worked to keep my small indoor plants ventilated during the summer! Its compact size makes it great for small rooms, but even in larger spaces, it performs well as a personal cooling fan. 3. Quiet Yet Effective: As someone who works from home, I can’t deal with loud appliances disrupting my calls or focus. This fan is whisper-quiet even on its highest setting, so I barely notice it’s there except for the comfort it provides. 4. Energy Efficiency with Style: At 35 watts, I was pleasantly surprised by how little energy it uses. It’s reassuring to know I can keep it running all day without worrying about the electricity bill. Plus, the sleek black design fits effortlessly into any room without being an eyesore. Bonus Discoveries: One unexpected perk? I brought it along on a family trip, and it fit perfectly in my carry-on bag. It’s become my go-to travel fan for hotel stays, offering reliable cooling without taking up precious luggage space. Room for Improvement: While this fan performs exceptionally well for small to medium spaces, don’t expect it to cool a large living room or be your sole solution for extreme heat. It’s best used as a personal fan or supplementing larger cooling systems. Final Thoughts: This fan has exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s lightweight, efficient, and powerful, making it perfect for home, office, or even travel. Whether you’re looking for a quiet fan to keep you cool during work or a reliable air circulator for your bedroom, this fan delivers on all fronts. I can’t recommend it enough for anyone seeking a compact and effective cooling solution. 🌟 Read more

The power on this fan is super good. It can stay on all day and all night. It’s small enough to put up anywhere in your closet or suit case. The noise level is not loud. It has 1-2-3 on the speed limit with 3 being the fastest speed on it. Is very cooling. Read more

Perfect amount of airflow for by the bed, it's quiet enough that it's not annoying, however it's at that perfect DB that it helps me sleep. Have bad tinnitus and it definitely is better than the fan I used to have Read more

I waited to make a review because I saw a few people saying it doesn't last long, but I can say after having mine for 3 years, it is definitely a hardy little fan. After 3 years it still blows with the same strength as when I got it, it comes with 3 levels, I have it on the lowest every night when I sleep and it's still a decent amount of airflow. I keep this fan on for hours at a time, literally all night every night, and I have been for years and it's still going strong. The noise level in my opinion, it's reasonable for the size and speed it's blowing at. At the lowest setting, it's at the foot of my bed and has a soft whirling that creates a white noise that at this point helps me sleep. Higher levels definitely have a louder noise but I've never needed to use anything other than the lowest setting. It's easy to use, just plug it in and turn it on. The switch is a little counterintuitive though because it goes backwards, the farthest level is the lowest and the first is the strongest. It's overall very lightweight, and you can move and aim the fan up or down to adjust airflow (doesn't move side to side, but it's small enough you can turn the whole thing). It is made of hard plastic, and looks exactly like the picture. When I bought it, it was $15, not sure if the price has changed since then, but considering rhe price, it's an outstanding little fan, and I definitely recommend it. Not a huge financial commitment either if you for some reason end up not liking it. Read more

These fans are a little workhorse!! I have ours running 24 hours a day. No assembly just plug in. A little large for my desks. For my bedroom desk I point one to my bed. Love air blowing on my face all night long. Three speeds and handy to put on a side table for the living room or move to the kitchen window. The fan is a bit large to put in a suitcase for travel unless you are going by car and find a large tote. I bought my second fan after I saw how handy the first fan was. I bought my third a few months ago. Read more
