Heller PF40

30cm desk fan / Given that we are all focusing on reducing electricity consumption because of the cost, I use desk fans. Even on a hot day, one can stay cool and use fans that can be shifted from room to room. This fan works well and provides a lovely cool breeze. Purchased this online with other goods and always delighted with the ease of OfficeWorks process.

The fan is very cheap plastic and metal. The assembly instructions were useless but having assembled numerous fans I didn't have a problem. I consider it an unsafe product as there are no lugs for locating the guard, it is simply held on by a plastic tightening bolt. This allows the guard to rotate and then once the bolt is loose the guard can drop causing the fan blades to hit the guard. I can't believe it cost more than my $12 Click fan from Bunnings which has been going strong for 3 years and I wouldn't have even bothered getting it but we had guests arriving on the day and Bunnings were out of stock.
