Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I LIKE THIS ITEM! What makes it so nifty is it works on a car charger,(included) regular a/c (included) OR D batteries! 3 different power sources in one make it very portable and usable in different situations. The fans themselves are small yet its quite powerful and you can angle the bottom fan up or down and the top one left to right..the mist comes out in the middle and is VERY cooling and refreshing, (esp if u used chilled water) Now it does say that the misting last for some ridicules amount of time like 10 hours. That's wrong, you have to fill up the bottle about every hour to 2 hours and SOMETIMES esp on the intermittent misting feature it will stop misting and u have the give the bottle a little twist or tap. Still though living in HOT n HUMID FL I find it's an item I cannot live without and on dryer days it doubles as a humidifier, have used in the house and as long as your not setting it next to electronics it doesn't get anything soaking or dripping wet. Also a great item to cool off your car on a hot day and even ad to the a/c. And the the D battery feature is portable enough to take outside for gardening, to cool pets and great for power outages-storms etc. My only little complainants is I the black plastic fans seem a little cheap-I wouldn't adjust them a lot and I believe the ad or box say they oscillate and they don't, you have to manually adjust them into position and like I said the water/misting isn't as advertised for how long it lasts and does clog every now and again and just an FYI it's pretty noisy esp, when misting (but that doesn't bother me) and I would have to say item is easily 20 bucks over priced, if it were not for that I would have given it 5 stars. BUT EVEN at the listed price its a practical and versatile and EFFECTIVE item and I highly recommend. I don't camp but it would be PERFECT for camping! I can think of MANY uses for this item!
I do want to update my review over year later here in May 2010. I did have to send the first one back as it stopped misting in a short period of time. The seller did ship another one out pronto and it worked great. On my second fan, after many months of use and a bump or two being moved here and there, the top fan stopped working, tho it still mists and the bottom fan works. And now that Ive had it I have many times wanted to put ice in the water jug and you cant as the cap is too small, chilled water does work fine. Still tho I am a believer in this product for personal use/power outages (its been a real livesaver as I HATE being HOT) Ive also noted that the price has gone up even more since I bought mine. THE PRICE IS A TOTAL RIP FOR WHAT IT IS. Dont get me wrong, I still love it and use it, and wanted to buy another one, BUT NOT AT THIS PRICE. This fairly needs to be in the 20 to 30 dollar price range! Still a good product to have around but keep in mind its tall and small and meant for ONE PERSON ONLY sitting right in front of it.

When jumping in the lake or standing under the garden hose are not available options for dealing with a sweltering summer day, this portable misting fan comes in handy. The unit delivers noticeable cooling, with the ability to reduce the surrounding air temperature by up to 30 degrees F. Its tower design provides two powerful 5-inch fans that consist of a top fan that swivels left to right and a bottom fan that swivels up and down for multi-directional airflow and broader coverage. It also offers a misting function that enhances the cooling process by evaporating water misted on skin, which draws heat away from the body. The unit works with any standard-size water bottle, and its misting function can be set to run intermittently--10 seconds on then 20 seconds off, for example. The indoor/outdoor misting fan plugs into a wall outlet with the included AC adaptor or it can run cordlessly with the use of eight D cell batteries (not included), making it a nice choice when enjoying the outdoors from a remote camp site or a little closer to home in the backyard. The unit will run on high speed for up to 16 hours and low speed for up to 32 hours, and its sturdy base helps prevent it from tipping over. Compact and easy to carry, the tower misting fan measures 6-4/5 by 7-1/5 by 20 inches.
