Small But Mighty Fan

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Shark FlexBreeze fan is small and compact. It isn't too heavy but it weighs enough not to tip over when in use. It's adjustable and easy to carry anywhere with you, and would be perfect for travel.
The speed settings are easy to use and work pretty well. The lowest setting is very low and the breeze can't be felt very far. As you increase speed, you get a nice stream of air flow without the noise most fans have at a high speed. The highest setting can cool you off pretty good in small spaces, but I'm not sure how it would do in a larger area.
The misting feature is great and really helps to cool you down even more than just the fan alone. It's easy to fill up and use but the more you use both functions, the quicker the battery runs down. When using the fan by itself, the battery lasts for a while. It's easy to charge and charges pretty quickly. There is a light that indicates the battery level so you know when you need to charge it.
Overall, I'm happy with the fan and will be using it often. It'll be great to take to the pool this summer.

This is a fantastic item and a must-have for anyone who doesn't have sufficient ventilation in a room.
I normally sit in a room that is far from the main air conditioning unit. Due to this, the room is always hot. I have called multiple technicians and they have all said the same thing: this cannot be fixed. As such, this fan is just perfect for me.
Unboxing it was a breeze. I just took it out of the box and put it on my desk. One thing that's nice about this is that it's portable and has a battery, so I was able to use it right out of the box without even plugging it in. I did let it charge while using it, though.
The fan has six speed modes. There are five normal modes and one extra mode that lights up all five lights. I find the maximum speed to be perfect for very hot days, but I mostly keep it set to 3 or 4 since my nose does get irritated when I have it at max for prolonged periods of time.
It also has a built-in mist system. Living in a dry area, this is perfect for me. I just fill it up with cold water and it keeps me cold.
Overall, this is a fantastic indoor fan system.

Works best indoors, Mist feature is refreshing

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Shark FlexBreeze Fan’s best feature is that it can be charged for cordless use, optimizing it for portability. It’s small, but if placed correctly, it’s a very nice personal fan. The battery life is great and the misting feature is nice outdoors. It can’t compete with natural wind, so I do find that it works its best indoors, however it’s still a nice outdoor companion.
Battery Power
I was able to use the Shark FlexBreeze for 5 hours and 20 minutes nearly continuously (I turned it off and on right away to check battery power a few times, but I only lost a few seconds of use, the run time was very close to continuous). At 9am, I turned it on to fan speed 1, then at 10am I turned it to fan speed 3 and kept it at 3 until the battery ran out at 2:20pm. The battery power will come in handy this summer if I want to take it to the beach or the pool. I also wanted a battery powered fan in case of power outages.
HydroGo Misting
The mist feature is refreshing because it does make the fan wind even cooler, but the threshold is about 3 or 4 ft. The hot weather is where the misting feature can come in handy, but the fan stands no chance against mother nature. A little underwhelming when the fan direction and mist are carried away by a light wind or natural breeze. If you’re thinking that you don’t need the fan if there’s a breeze out, you’d be wrong where I live. It’s a very humid and hot city so even if there’s a “breeze” in the summer, chances are it’s not the nicest natural breeze. The other thing to note about the misting feature is that if the water level is at a quarter tank or lower and the fan is tilted up, the misting might sputter and not work as well. There’s a little bit of maintenance as you have to remove all the water after use and keep the tank door open for 24-hours. I find that running the fan with the tank door open helps dry it out.
Fan Power
There are technically 6 speeds to choose from, speeds 1 through 5 and the 6th speed is called BreezeBoost, which on battery power doesn’t last nearly as long as the other speeds (advertised 20 minutes). The good thing is that the FlexBreeze fan works plugged in, so you can experience the benefits of all fan speeds for as long as you like if it’s connected to the charger. Fan speed 1 is very light, you have to be indoors and right up on it to feel it. Speed 2 is alright. Speed 3 is where things start feeling very nice. Speeds 4 and 5 are nice and strong. And of course BreezeBoost is pretty powerful, but can drain the battery way more quickly.
Final Thoughts
This fan by Shark is small but mighty if placed optimally and worked well for me in the right circumstances. I love that it works both corded and cordless. It is very convenient to have a portable, battery powered fan but I do wish it worked just a little better outdoors. Nonetheless, I’m happy I have it.

The fan is OK but for the price i think it should be a lot stronger for these summer days. You litterlt have to hold the fan in your face to be able to feel it. And the boost function is good but drains the battery way to fast. Is good but not an outdoor fan. Barely an indoor one.

Hi Nick,

Innovative Fan, High Price

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I have used the Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo Fan outdoors for approximately one week. During this time, I have tested all of its primary features, including the misting function, battery operation, oscillation, adjustable height, and remote control. All features have performed reliably and as expected. The fan feels sturdy, required no assembly, and is highly portable due to its battery-powered capability.
The airflow reaches a considerable distance and provides effective cooling. The misting function is limited to a range of about 4 to 6 feet but contributes noticeably to cooling in hot conditions. Battery life has exceeded four hours per use, and I have not yet depleted a full charge. There is a slight tonal difference when the fan is plugged in, suggesting marginally increased power, but the difference is minimal.
I have not encountered any issues or limitations so far. While I consider the price to be somewhat high, the performance aligns with expectations, and the product delivers on its advertised capabilities. Overall, it offers solid functionality and convenience for outdoor use.

Portable comfort for a hot day!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
For those of us who live in warmer or hot climates will appreciate this little gem of a fan. It may be small in stature but it stands tall on performance. For such a compact device it has a number of features. Right out of the box you will notice it is very light-weight for easy portability. You can operate it plugged in or cordless, which I ran it on battery in my office for an entire workday and it still had plenty of juice at the end of the day. In standard fan mode it has multiple fan speeds that are extremely quiet. I was using it during a conference call less that a foot from the microphone and no one heard the fan. Besides having the benefit of being portable it also has a misting feature that almost seems like outdoor air conditioning. Sitting on the patio on a hot summer day will no longer be uncomfortable! For those of you who have kids that participate in outdoor summer sports activities, this should be added to YOUR equipment list. Just add water to the unit and you will have a cooled area in no time. You can even set the misting feature to be constant or at intervals depending on the conditions around you. We haven't reached the hottest days yet but there nothing like being prepared.

I work 12hrs in my Car and I bought this to help circulate and keep the interior cool when I have to stay in here durring the hot temperatures. It dies within 30 minutes and it takes more than 5 hours just tp reach a full charge. I have to keep it for now becuase I get out early mornings so I dont have time to get to the store to return or refund it. I regret buying it. I do not recommend at all.

Pretty neat little missed fan that's rechargeable

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I really like this little portable fan, it's nice that it not only uses power it's also rechargeable and the water mist is a added bonus for the hot humid Summers here in the Midwest.
I currently find myself using this down in my drum room for extra cooling on myself while playing as it gets hot after a few songs. This little guy works pretty well for what it is I'm very surprised how much air it moves for its small size especially on battery power.
So far I've used it a total of 3 hours on one charge and it's still going strong on that one charge. I did try the mist feature just to see that it worked outside and it works pretty well for its small size, I don't know how often I'll use that feature but it's pretty nice to have as an option if needed.
The charging/power cord is long enough to reach most spots thankfully it's longer than 3 ft which is what I originally expected. As long as the battery holds up this should be a very nice feature around the house as well as going to the lake boating.
