Review on ๐Ÿ’จ Holmes White Convertible Desk and Clip Fan, Model HCF0611A-WM by Michelle Stewart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sturdy construction, short cord, inflexible

I bought a Holmes clip and table fan and an Avalon clip and table fan for about the same price. Both received 4 stars for different reasons. The Holmes Fan has a stronger construction with thicker plastic, a stronger clip and a metal cage. The base is designed so that you can simply snap it on to turn it into a desktop fan without assembly. However, the cable is annoyingly short and the fan lacks flexibility. It only fits left to right, not up or down. The Avalon fan has cheaper all-plastic construction, but I wouldn't call it flimsy. The clip is strong enough but not as good as the Holmes fan. However, it has a longer, straight cord and is very flexible, allowing you to adapt it for a variety of uses, not just countertop use, such as cooking. B. on the headboard of a bed frame or chair. Both fans blow pretty hard. I would recommend the Holmes fan if you just want a desktop-only solution and Avalon if you want something more flexible.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
