This review is from: Draper 31533 230-Volt 6-Inch Clip-On Fan (DIY & Tools)
Having bought various Draper goods i knew this would be a pretty good product for the price and so it is. Good construction and building quality, good clip, its fairly light and provides a decent amount of airflow are its strengths. My only niggles would be it is slightly more noisier than expected and the switch gives medium and strong airflow, would of been nice to have a low option which would eliminate the noise element too. Great stuff anyways, bargain at the price and going to be invaluable over summer.

I bought this fan to take with me on a business trip, and so the 6″ size really appealed to me. What I didn’t realise was that the 6″ size refers to the blades, making this fan around 10″ in diameter in total – not much smaller than a standard desk fan. It’s also nearly a kilo in weight, so too heavy for luggage. A good, well made fan, but much more substantial than it looks.

This review is from: Draper 31533 230-Volt 6-Inch Clip-On Fan (DIY & Tools)
When I opened the box with the product inside I was tempted to right a review just purely on the dodgy packaging that made the product look as if it was second hand but, decided against doing that as I figured it was a bit harsh to just review a product on how it is packaged. The reason that I decided to right this review was becuase of the joining mechanism between the clip and the fan. The problem is that the fan has a massive motor (yes gives out a lot of air, very good) which is very heavy. This means that when you angle the fan forward slightly it ends up dropping down to its lowest level, which isn’t where I want it to be. I’ve tried tightening the bolt that connects the clip and the fan but I think it will be impossible to do with out a special bolt tightening device. Apart from that major floor, the fan is actually very good at doing what a fan is meant to do; blow air. It’s got a very big motor so can push a fair volume of air. It’s a definite step up from my mini usb fan but at the moment I have got books stacked up so as to point the fan in the right direction.

What is up with the clip?!?!?,
