" ... It was only plugged in for a few minutes before it started smelling like melted plastic. ... "
" ... It seems to work fine has no angle adjustment so is of limited use to most people and is the cheapest of cheap plastic. ... "
" ... If you get a little ocd and start looking at the plastic molding on the back of it, in the light, you can see that that is not the best, waves-cheaply made etc. ... but it feels like a very strong plastic so I am not worried about anything cosmetic like that. ... Also, the charger does NOT push in neatly, there is quite a bit of the metal exposed. ... Please pull the PLASTIC FILM out inside the battery before using! ... "
" ... Not only that but the fan is made so poorly that the lid to the battery compartment falls off all the time, in fact every time you pick the fan up or go to move it and place it. ... Come back the next day, try it again, use the fan for an hour, battery dead, plug it in, lid falls off. ... I ended up smashing this fan into a million pieces and feeling F'n great about it. ... "
