Summary: Cool, quiet, and compact.
Comment: If you're looking for a cool, quiet, and compact fan, you probably won't be disappointed.

Summary: Genius product
Comment: This fan is fantastic! Super compact - looks very minimalistic and elegant on my office desk. I have it about 4-5 feet away and either of its 2 settings is more than enough when it gets a little warm in here. Plus the "blades" are just cloth flaps. Great if you stick your fingers in it - zero chance of injury. Very happy with the purchase. A+

Summary: Almost Perfect Portable Fan
Comment: I got this to replace a little Boston desk fan who's motor burned out. The only thing that did that Zippi doesn't is really focus the air (the Boston was shaped like a regular Vornado, with the solid housing around it), which made it cool faster without blowing things all over the desk. Somehow, even on high speed it did not make a lot of noise. Zippi is really good in small areas and being able to tilt it up and down eliminates the paper flying. The fabric blades help it take up less room and are a good safety feature. It too is quiet on high speed. It's great for me as a designer, since when I have to work onsite, I often don't know the kind of environment I might have to go to. Zippi weighs very little, and can fold up small enough to go in my tote bag with other things. I keep it in its original plastic bag. I got a second one and have it on a little shelf in my bathroom. Just enough breeze on low to have right by the mirror! If only it could cool as efficiently as that Boston fan--Boston was a very inexpensive brand that I don't think is even made anymore. Vornado is a premium brand, makes such great large fans, that this should be really great, so only 4 stars for Zippi. But overall, this is a good, versatile little fan you might want more than 1 of.

Summary: Have Zippi, will travel (comfortably)
Comment: My husband and I have multiple Vornado circulators (what they call their unique air moving design fans), and have always felt their products were superior enough to other fans that the costs were merited. When I saw the "zippi" I definitely decided it was a "personal" fan, and no more, and people who are dissatisfied with them weren't paying attention to the manufacturer's description of these fans. Last spring (2007) I purchased one as a desk fan and one for a friend that was planning a tent-camping trip cross-country (with only a motorcycle and small trailer to carry his gear). He and I were both totally pleased with the zippis - they do exactly what the manufacturer says they will! In very hot weather the zippi proved to be a real lifesaver in a small tent that did not have large windows! After I saw the zippi in person I kicked myself for not buying more than one for myself. This week (June 2008) I ordered 4 more and plan to keep at least 2 of them for my use . . . and maybe, maybe give the other 2 as gifts. I made a "stuff bag" for mine from a section of blue jean leg--with a pull string and carrying strap. I perspire very easily, and take it with me to physical therapy and other appointments where I cannot control the "atmosphere".

Summary: Same as FA1-0007-06
Comment: This is the same as the FA1-0007-06, except in a blister pack. The other one is in a box, and about $8 cheaper. I was expecting with a bigger part number and price, it would be a bigger fan.
Otherwise, I love this little fan! It seems the lack of housing makes it very quiet.

Zippi mixes its classic platinum color, soft blades and two-speed motor with a big attitude to make any room cool. Zippi is small enough to carry in a suitcase, backpack or briefcase yet strong enough to move a lot of air in a dorm room, cubicle or hotel room. Zippi's soft nylon blades quickly and quietly propel the air, but are safe to touch while the fan is in motion. Create the perfect comfort level with the two speeds and adjustable fan head.
