This is an especially great option for people who have asthma or deal with allergies.

Pros
- More than 8,000 glowing reviews
- Adjustable tilt head
- Less than 5 lbs
Cons
- Not the color it appears to be online, per some reviews
Let’s be real: It’s hard to come by fans that are aesthetically pleasing. But this cute, vintage-inspired table fan is proof that they do, indeed, exist! Customers not only love it for its chic look but also for its sturdiness, quiet motor, and power. One buyer said it’s so well-built that it’s lasted her for eight years (and counting!). While it does only have two speed options, it’s just enough if you want a light breeze.

Pros
- Available in three sizes
- Three wind modes
Cons
- The base is a bit wobbly, according to some reviews
Cosmo‘s senior shopping editor Kim Duong bought this so you should too. Why? First of all, it was the prettiest tower fan she could find, and we all know how important exteriors are! But she was also in search of one that was damn near mute because she’s planning to use it while she sleeps. And tons of buyers have said that it’s extremely quiet! A spec that did really sell her though was that when it’s in night mode, it dims all the lights on the fan. So if you’re on the hunt for a nighttime fan, you’re looking at it!

If you need a fan ASAP and you’re not trying to drop bank on it either, go for this traditional one by Amazon that nearly 31,000 customers swear by.

For all my fellow Sweaty Girls out there, a personal fan is a necessity in life. You can whip it out of your purse or pocket whenever you’re feeling hot and sticky. But the best part? It has a built-in flashlight and power bank—aka you can use it to charge your phone and/or other electronic devices.

Sometimes the wind from a fan just isn’t enough! Behold: a tiny (but mighty!) fan with three different speeds that also has a mist feature. Choose its continuously spray mode if you want a constant water refresh or the intermittent spray mode if you just need a lil spritz here and there.
