> 3 dayI ordered this fan and it was weaker at top speed than I expected. Checked the box said 1000 CFM, which is different from the 1250 CFM thats listed for CF3 10 fans in multiples places on Amazon, Home Depots website, New Eggs website, and other places. I contacted customer support and eventually acquired this handy table with the actual correct specs on all Geek Aire fans. To be clear, I think these fans are great. Its just important to know these real numbers - for some, fan speed is a higher priority than battery life, etc. My interactions with customer support were mostly positive. Had to order a different fan because of the incorrect specs issue but the quality of the CF3 fan was great and Im looking forward to getting the CF1 soon.

> 3 dayExcellent fan so far. Bought it for camping in mainland Mexico where the power often goes out at night in some of the more remote areas. It’s been excellent so far and runs at top speed through the night and into the next day easily if fully charged. We just used it in a 5 star lodge when their transformer blew just before dark. Great addition for over landing and remote camping in warm weather. I just bought another so we could also put one in the tent if we desire.

> 3 dayThis fan is cool, and the best battery-powered one I’ve ever used (I have a few). I live off-grid so my power runs out by 2am every night and doesn’t come back on until 8am or later. But this thing charges itself during the day and just keeps on running all night, then recharges itself after the power comes back on usually 6-8 hours later. It keeps the bedroom breezy & cool all night long, isn’t too noisy, and the speed is super adjustable. It’s also lightweight and easy to carry because of the handle, so I often take it with me when I go to art shows/fairs as a way of keeping myself and my clients cool while making & selling artwork under my canopy. It also makes hanging out outdoors more comfortable because it gets so darn hot in the summer, but I just pick a spot in the shade, set this thing next to me, and I can keep cool for hours while reading, painting, etc., and not have to be stuck in-doors next to my swamp cooler. The breeze also helps keep flies off my person and my paintings. The battery lasts for many hours, especially if you keep it on a medium or low setting (rather than a high setting) and though I’ve had it for 2 years now, the battery seems just as good, and the fan is still working perfectly. It’s made of sturdy metal and has handled accidental falls/drops/kicks/etc like a champ.

> 3 dayAnother update: 11 weeks after making a support request, and 6 follow up emails I sent, I was finally replied to and asked for my shipping address to send a replacement. This was about one week ago. We will see if I receive a replacement or not… Back to update that it’s been 2 more mos and no reply from support. I’ve been emailing every week. I was so impressed with this fan when I originally purchased about 9 mos ago. It seemed very high quality and performant. I felt I paid a premium price for a premium product. We used in a fully enclosed and ibsulated sun room for about 3 mos. total. I stored fan inside home in dry warm basement and recently brought back out to use to and it wouldn’t charge or turn on. I’ve been trying to get support for this issue for over 3 mos now and no progress. You will get bounced around between countries and emails and asked for videos and invoices and details on details but NOTHING will be done with all the information provided. I have done hours of my own troubleshooting and research, tried purchasing new charger and come to the conclusions I wasted a lot of money on a product with a faulty battery. This is one of my worst Amazon finds for sure! Save your money and don’t buy this.

> 3 dayThis 16 inch fan is extremely quiet and versatile. It has impressive air flow at all speeds and the battery life is as advertised. It does charge quickly and is easy to operate. The fan comes fully assembled and charged so it is ready to use out of the box. We bought this to use outside which is convenient since there are no cords. It is well made. This is the second battery powered fan I have purchased and I would highly recommend this one, especially if you live is an area where storms can cause extended power outages. The run time allows you to sleep with nice air flow blowing on you, which in a hot humid climate is a must. After my satisfaction with the first fan I purchased from Greek Aire I had no problem buying this second one. They are a good company with great customer service.

> 3 dayWeve had one of the 10 fans and one larger for a couple of years. We recently purchased another 10 fan. We use them outside on the patio, inside the large outdoor storage shed and sometimes in the house. The noise level is low and the battery lasts a long time, although indoors we generally plug it in. The larger one was inadvertently left in the storage shed throughout the winter. I was surprised to turn it on this spring and find it still had about three-fourths of the battery left on it. It had been used during the fall so that would be about right. The cold did no harm. Its easy to carry, the fan adjusts to the angle needed and with a low noise level works wherever we put it.

> 3 dayWatched a you tube video and this fan had great reviews so I purchased it. My husband loves it and it will be great for our camping trips. It does not get as loud as a normal box fan but it still works great. And love that it can be plugged in or just charge it up and go. Highly recommend this product.
