OK, you are not going to get Dyson quality for 12 but you are going to get an impressive performance from this.
I bought this to blow air when using our treadmill which is in the garage. In this weather it stifling if no breeze, it’s warm going even in winter. I wall mounted the unit, yes you need 2 raw plugs and screws, as the unit is lightweight you don’t need much above a number 6 screw and plug, holes are 100mm apart.
Took 2 mins to mount it up,
It comes with 1 years warranty which is extendable to 2 when registered.
Great value, great performance, obviously only time will tell on reliability but would recommend it.
Great wee buy, great size, the higher setting is quite noisy but it certainly does the job. I’ve been keeping it turned on at night as it’s been too warm to sleep and it’s helped so much
The fan is light weight and compact. It can be moved where where ever you need to move. It has 2 speed settings and had adjustable tilt. It also can be mounted on the wall or can be used on the desk. The material is plastic. Love the design and the colour. It was most useful this summer, value of money and a recommend from me.
This is a little fan, powered by power cord. Needs a little assembling but isn’t too complicated. Quite noisy when use at night time, doesn’t say the noise level but if you want a quiet fan, check the noise level in the description, I would say lower than 30dB would be relatively quiet, the lower dB the quieter of course.
The fan doesn’t look particularly sturdy. I think Russell Hobbs is better on their kitchen appliances than fans.
Today and yesterday the temperature in the UK hit almost 40c and boy was I glad I bought this! Its powerful and a lot more cooling than a traditional style fan. No assembly straight out of box and plugged in! Love it!
This is a solidly build powerful light weight fan perfect for as I have done wall mounting or placing on desk. Mains lead could do with being a little longer .
This fan is as basic as they come and dare I say it, looks a little on the cheap side.
That being said it works really well, is from a brand I trust, and required no assembly on opening. Using the rear-mounted dial you have two-speed settings, the first one is reasonably quiet and has a nice airflow. The second is far louder, and while I’m unlikely therefore to use it, does pump out an awful lot more air.
The body of the fan can be angled, though its rotation is incremental rather than freely selectable and there is a very loud click as it moves through them all.
At just under 25, it’s perfect as a desk fan in my office and has been keeping me cool throughout the recent hot weather.
As described and as advertised.
fully functional – fully tested and no issues.
Two speeds ie high or low. We think that this would have been better with a medium speed/power option.
Good length power cord – long enough for wall power point and to sit on work desk with enough spare cable length to raise desk to standing position.
We do like the option of hanging this on the wall but noted that no screws are provided.
We’ve not scored this 5 stars because it has a plastic look and feel and it’s heavier that we expected it to be. We have a small concern that the plastic base might not be strong enough to support the unit attached to the wall but we wanted for desk top use anyway.
This takes up a fair bit of desk real estate compared to others we’ve tried but decent quality cooling effec
Was expecting a little more from Ruseel Hobbs brand.
Pretty much a generic fan with 2 speed settings.
Not very quiet even on low and the air movement isn’t anything to write home abount.
Typical white plastic construction.
This is a very durable & excellent desk top fan! This exceeded my expectations as I did not think it would be this good !!It’s quite strong and powerful and lasts for a good amount of time. The fan definitely stands which I liked the most as most fans I’ve bought have dropped even when it was sitting upright. I’ve placed this on my table so the fan is facing me directly and giving me cool air. The noise level is not that loud which is good too as I have cats and am a light sleeper too overall, this is a excellent fan and a very good value for money. Would recommend.
If quickly scanning through an online product listing, it is easy to mistake this Russel Hobbs fan for one of the USB-powered Chinese fans, but it isn’t. This is much larger, robust, mains-powered fan and of a higher quality – as I would expect from Russel Hobbs.
The 3-blade, 8″ diameter fan is well designed for use sitting on a desk, bedside table, the floor or an alternative flat surface but the main selling point for me is that it can also be wall-mounted and the fan section rotated and angled to direct the air flow for optimum cooling.. This is just what I was looking for so it can be used over my bed to blow a current of cooling, fresh air over the bed on hot, sticky summer nights.
The fan has 2 speeds, low and high but feels as though it should have a medium setting mid-way between. Both speeds are powerful but the high speed is quite noisy to sleep through if close to the bed. The lower speed is easy and comfortable to sleep through but with high speed can feel too draughty when wall-mounted over the bed although is very refreshing when positioned on the floor to blow across the room.
Ideally I would have liked a longer power cable than the 1.5m supplied but luckily we have bedside plug sockets at a raised height so this works well for us.
The fan has a 1 year manufacturer warranty with Russel Hobbs which can be extended by a further year via registering online although I can’t imagine the fan being likely to fail even with regular use.
It’s a good fan at a fair price and one of the few fans with the option of wall-mounting. Recommended.
My living room gets like a greenhouse in the warmer months and a fan is essential when working from home. This desk fan comes with a simple base that allows it to perch on your desk or be hung on the wall with a couple of hooks. The angle can be adjusted on the vertical axis.
The fan has only 2 speed settings. Personally, I find the low setting works well enough when on a desk, as it’s close enough not to need huge airflow. This setting is quiet, with an inobtrusive noise profile – no annoying whine or hum. The higher setting is noticeably louder, but it does push a lot of air. It’s a little disappointing that there isn’t a middle ground between them.
Overall, it’s pretty good, but you might want to pay a little more if you want more adjustability.
