After reading all the reviews on this fan I came away with this general conclusion. It is a high price fan compared to other 12v fans but it does move significantly more air than the lower price ones and is fairly low on energy usage. Sound level will be about that of an air conditioner fan. Good built frame, chinzy fold out fan legs.
I decided for my application this was all acceptable and what I was looking for so I bought it. Here are the results: It does make about as much noise as an air conditioner fan on the low and medium settings so if you are sensitive to white noise this fan may not do it for you. The reality is these fans are designed with a radiator fan motor so yes they will be noisier and have a slight whine to them, if they designed a 12v fan to the standard 120v hosehold fans it would be even more expensive. In terms of build quality I agree the "legs" on the fan do feel a little flimsy but if you just take the time to genly twist them and set the fan down gently they will last just fine. If you are rough handling the fan then don't be surprised if they break. The enclosure itself is pretty durable and the fan blades appear to be light clear plastic but if you don't stick anything in the fan they will be just fine. They do appear thin considering the amount of air they move but I use this fan in a van when I am staying overnight fishing on a lake and it makes it comfortable in the van. I can put it on a small table next to the bed, put it on low, and have it blow on me and sleep all night in 85 degree weather. As with most reviewers I seldom need to use the Hi setting b/c it really does move a great amount of air on med and low. When I have needed an extra fan at home to blow air across the living room I hooked this fan up to a 120v converter and on high you could feel the air 15 feet across the room. It was a little loud but playing video games on big speakers, who cares? I have also experimented using this as a window fan hooked up to a 12v solar panel system I have at home and it works great. For me the med setting is what I use the most and the amp draw is about 1.89 , actually better than the cheaper little fans at big box stores that move less air and use more energy. Overall if you need a fan that can be used on a 12v solar power system or car camping, that can move a good amount of air, and don't mind the sound of an air condtioner, then this fan is worth the money. If you are someone who is looking for a 12v fan that has the perfomance of a household fan, buy a dc/ac converter and plug your standard household fan into that. You really aren't going to find the same perfomance on 12v. But this one comes as close as you're going to get.
