Bottom Line Up Front: This fan is near perfect; the one small problem is nowhere near a dealbreaker or even worth taking a star away. This is for people who live in dry climates.I got this because it was available overnight for early delivery. I live on a top floor condo in Colorado and my condenser fan motor died while I was cooking dinner. I ordered this anticipating that I was going to bake in the near 100 degree heat the next day. That turned out to be a good call.While it was 90 in my condo, it was cool and comfortable sitting with this fan. Now that my AC is back up and running, this fan has another benefit of doing a great job cooling my second floor loft without having to run the AC harder. This will pay for itself almost immediately because of how much higher I can set the thermostat without my loft being uncomfortably hot.Usually it’s about 10-30% relative humidity here. About 2-3 feet from the fan you can feel a good 20 degree temperature drop with the mist function on if it’s exceptionally hot and dry. I cannot stress enough what a lifesaver this is when it’s 90 inside and you have no other way to cool yourself down. The box states that it puts about 150ml/hr of water into the air. That seems accurate as I use a little more than a quart of water in it during an 8 hour workday.The cooling effect is less pronounced in a room that’s already cool, but if your home has poor thermal performance, the chilly air completely overpowers the radiant heat coming from the ceiling and exterior walls. Massive comfort boost.All in all it’s the best desk fan I’ve ver had. Quiet and efficient, you don’t have to worry about battery life – it’s excellent. Makes your room much more comfortable. I put bottled water in it and will probably eventually dose it with bacteriostat for humidifiers.Pros:- This fan runs while charging and charges up very fast.- Battery runs quite a long time, I haven’t exhausted it yet even after letting it run for several hours without being charged. Great for when the power is out.- The mist function, if you live in a dry climate, makes this fan blow absolutely ice cold air. You will be chilly.Cons:- The fill hole is a little on the small side so you usually spill a little water.- I’m not sure the light function was well thought out. You need to be 2-3 feet away from the fan for the cooling to be pleasant, at that distance the light is blaring bright like headlights. At farther distances the light is too dim. I don’t really have a use for this function and I activate it accidentally all the time. If it were soft white and angled down at the table or straight up at the ceiling it would be a far more useful feature.- I wouldn’t mind if the water reservoir was twice as big. [...]
