In one of our earlier reviews, we had written about Philips Breeze LED Desk Light as one of the key essentials for a work / study desk setup. Another electrical appliance that is equally essential on a study / work desk is the Havells I-Cool 175mm Personal Fan.

If you are wondering why such a fan is required, then wonder no more! We live in a city along the coastline. As all of us are aware, coastlines are typically good for regulating extreme temperatures such as cold or heat but they also have the distinct disadvantage of being humid. Now imagine a sweltering hot and humid summer and you will get the idea on why the Havells portable fan is quite useful.

Of course, readers may still ask on why we can not simply switch on the air conditioner. Many reasons for not doing that. They are typically not good for the environment and run up huge power bills even with the new class of air conditioners. And importantly, how long are you going to keep the AC switched on? You would be so conditioned to AC that it would become all the more difficult when you step out or there is a power failure. Anyway, simply put, we had our reasons to prefer a portable fan than just switching an AC though sometimes, we did use AC but that is not the norm.

Coming back to the Havells Personal Fan, we had earlier experimented with a few other portable fans but sadly they did not make the cut as there was one or the other aspect that did not work well for us. We finally zeroed in on this particular Havells I-Cool 175mm Personal Fan. We were hopeful and its design also looked neat and crisp. The feedback for the personal fan on the online shopping portal also felt promising. So when we received delivery, we were quite eager to try it out. Thankfully, we were not disappointed.

The Havells I-Cool 175mm Personal Fan was perfect for our requirements. While we use it for our study cum work desk, yet it can be used anywhere like kitchen, desk, cabin, terrace, outdoors and office. On a funny though not disrespectful note, we have heard that some use it as a hair drier given the wind blast it produces by mounting it on the wall. Not criticising as one reason or use is as good as the other. As the saying goes, "to each his own".



Now just take a look why this personal fan is popular -
  • Reputed Brand
  • Stylish and compact design
  • Excellent performance
  • Sturdy plastic material with a glossy finish
  • Available in flashy colours - maroon and grey
  • Portable and light weight (1.8 Kgs)
  • Equipped with a built-in handle for easy movement
  • Small footprint and occupies less space
  • Two step speed control for circulation needs
  • Powerful motor (2200 RPM) with 3 deep pitched, aerodynamically designed & balanced blades / propellers producing a strong wind flow
  • Allows multi-directional adjustment with 90 degree tilting (vertical plane) and 360 degree manual swing (horizontal plane)
  • Low power consumption at 52 W with operating Voltage at 240 volts
  • Mountable either on table / wall / celling and comes with mounting accessories kit 
  • 2 years Warranty
  • Reasonably priced
This is not to say that there is not any downside on this product. Clearly, there are some aspects though that might prove to be an issue for certain customers. The fan when active is bit noisy and produces some vibration. It is best to place it on a sturdy surface that absorbs the vibration. The noise is basically a trade-in for the strong breeze it provides. If too annoying, the wind speed can be adjusted to lower level. The Havells fan is also a personal fan and works well for 1 or 2 persons.

That said, for us, this fan has catered to our requirements very well. Its performance has been smooth with absolutely no repairs (touchwood).
