Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wind Blaster Fan

Customer Review: Nice fan works great!
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased one of these a few months ago, and it has worked great the entire time. We took this fan camping and loved the fact that it ran on batteries also. Nice portable fan at a decent price!

Customer Review: The fan arrived broken!!
Summary: 1 Stars

I was so excited about the "battery operated" fan. I needed it for a singing gig, and it was highly anticipated for it's mobility and ease of use, (no plug necessary.)

Well it arrived. Taken out of the box, I could hear pieces jangling about. The fan was broken! The two pieces which held the fan together were missing and the fan came apart, right out of the box! Then.....the switch did not work!! Unbelievable!! I needed the fan the next day. I had spent $56.00 for it. So, my boyfriend worked for an hour to fix the switch, he did, and he duck- taped the two sides together, we plugged it in, and it did work. Now the excitement as we loaded the 8 D batteries (cost $10.00) We figured out the configuration, turned it on, and
IT DID NOT WORK!! Unbelievable. You may ask at this time why I did not consider shipping it back. Have you ever shipped something back? It is a hassle and a cost.

So, I have learned, books, ok, but to purchase a mechanical product from Amazon, or any website is foolhardy. Go walk in a store and see what you are getting.

Just a P.S. I posted a review with the manufacturer, and I received a call from a customer service rep, who after hearing my story, offered me $10.00 refund to remove it!
And even told me how to do it. I said I would do it for $30.00, (trying to recoup some of my losses.) He said he would call me back. He didn't. Very disappointed with the entire experience.

Customer Review: This is a really great buy! This fan produces quite a blast!
Summary: 5 Stars

For a fan that can run both electrical & battery, it is well worth the money. If you buy cheap batteries, you actually get about a good 11 hours of breeze! Buy better batteries and you get more for your money! Well worth it!

Customer Review: Works
Summary: 4 Stars

I have two of them one of them just stop working, I asked for replacement and I get the new one and new fan works just fine.
it gives you enough cooling, better then I expected, it might be not enough for desert camping. I am in CA and it is ok. It might stop suddenly so do not trust this machine.
