Vornado V6 Flippi Personal Fan,small, Black



small profile and reasonably quiet
I have just moved to a new office (cube) and I sit next to a window that acts as a greenhouse. I generally like to be cool rather than warm. I had a table fan that I purchased a few years ago but it was larger and noisier. I have a large working surface that acts as a soundboard. Thinking about my colleagues at work I decided to find a small but quiet and effective fan. This fan meets the requirement so far and I like the color, it matches the rest of my hardware (computer, monitors, coffeemaker etc). It also has a modern and attractive appearance. It does not oscillate but the position of the fan head can be adjusted. I did not want an oscillating fan. I like air on my face.

There is one minor design item that I don't care for (My old fan has it too). When the fan is switched on it has to be switched to the high setting before the low setting. It's noisy in the high setting (It has two settings). Why these fans cannot go from off to low and then high I don't know. I will...

Get this for the office
I saw one of these on a co worker's desk and immediately bought one on Amazon(tm). It is rotatable and aimable and is completely quiet which the other team members will appreciate. It is sturdy plastic and attractive.

Terrible
Very noisy and not much breeze. Noise got worse after a few hours run time and it started drooping such that it would not point forward.
