If you can not equip your office with air conditioning, or it quickly gives you a cold, use a fan. Desktop models are efficient in that they do not take up extra space and are not too far away to adjust the settings. They don’t cool the temperature, but they create a nice breeze to help you weather the heat. This equipment is not only suitable for those who work at the table, that’s why thousands of them are bought in season. Let’s see what table fans are preferred by Russian consumers.

Our experts singled out the tabletop unit for its double attachment. It can easily be placed on a horizontal surface and does not slip due to the rubberized feet.
