Small and convenient to carry in your briefcase or attach to your large bag, duffle or backpack, or on your desk. It's good on days that are perhaps in the 70s in degrees. The power is mildly weak, I wasn't happy with my purchase but kept it as it was inconvenient to return it. I would not recommend for summer days - those really very hot days - not powerful enough for even a slight cool breeze.

It's a basic, no-frills, single-speed personal cooling fan. I deducted one star because I would have liked the option of two speeds (one higher) and the battery compartment is a little more complicated and fragile than it needs to be. The airflow is adequate if you're working at a computer and the fan is only a couple of feet away from your face. I would compare it to the breeze from the lowest setting of a car's air circulation system. Even with fresh alkaline batteries, the fan speed is noticeably lower than when plugged in to a USB power source. The 4 AA batteries are installed with 2 on each side of a removable cartridge that slides out of the unit. The cartridge springs are fragile and might break with frequent use. The front power button requires a bit of pressure to click on and off rather than being the soft-touch type. The stand clicks into many angle adjustments, or you can fold it open 180-degrees to use as a hanger, but I couldn't find anything in my office I would find more convenient to use the hanger option with. The fan is by no means silent but the low whirring noise is no louder than I expected from a cooling fan. Overall, this compact fan is a good value for its convenient size, decent airflow, adjustable stand, and AC/DC power options.
