Good looking' product but 'how much and how often does 15 to 20MPH wind blow onto desk in their office?'

It runs continous as long as it's plugged into a computer, you can't feel the wind, neat product I like it

It's not a real functioning wind turbine. You essentially plug it in to an outlet and it's a model wind turbine that acts as a USB charging hub as well.

Specs says 100m "in ideal conditions". I get 23m inside of the office, through 3 walls, high speed, no dropouts.Hope this helps,Cesar.

I've stood on rooftops in a 20 mph wind, worked in radio cabinets with fans blowing right in my face and never had a problem. Just be sure to use the windscreens supplied with the headset. You will be amazed.

I never really timed it accurately. Maybe an hour on high speed. Its a nice portable work fan when working in tight places or setting on your bench. It won't replace a big workshop drum type fan. It comes with a/c adapter so you can use wall outlet to power it.

The fan will never blow across a room that large. The unit is good, and it can keep the room warm, but you may want to install near your work area to feel warmer.

As best as I can say on a scale from 1-10, I give the noise factor a 2 1/2 to 3. The noise factor is somewhat minimal. I really don't think you will have an office problem, but I do know you will love this heater. It also doubles as a regular fan, which is so cool! I ran it all night for all of last winter and it did not hinder my sleeping at all!! I love this product!! I recommend you get it, I hope this helps.

I have mine on my desk at work. I don't think you could feel it more than 4 or 5 feet away, at least not more than a very light stirring of the air.

Wind will be a problem, it is not sturdy. We love it but it is more decorative than anything. I find the bolts loosen with frequency and need to be tightened regularly. Nice piece though. Hope that helps.

I would use it pointing up to the ceiling, and it would circulate the air really well. If you were to point directly at the desk...then, I am guessing the papers would blow around. It's a great fan and does move the air well.

Possibly may need to return it. First check that your table top is not flexible enough to cause the harmonic that would allow the fan to walk. My fan has a natural vibration that I would expect a fan of this size to have. The rubber feet keep it in one spot no problem. The cubicle tabletop is however very secure and very thick.

It moves a lot of paper in my office. But it is small. My office is 9x7 and it works great. If you have the space for a larger fan, I did not, I'd go for a larger one. The reason being at slow speeds, it's hard to notice.

Okay, back in office, and looked at stands. On the bottom you have a bar running across the front of the base and another running across the back, and two for the sides. As long as you have 'enough lap' to accommodate the approximately 20 cm gap between front and back rails you should be OK. There are no sharp projections or corners I could see and it appears there would be sufficient gap between the fan and your lap to continue providing circulation in the lowest setting, although probably not totally collapsed. All that said, it should be noted this seems designed to sit on a desktop, and not on a lap like some others I have seen. For the price, I would say it is worth a try.

Moderate wind. Mine has never fallen over and I leave it on a table on the deck during the worst of storms. But I would imagine if we had a strong tropical storm it would probably tip over.

I use the fan literally on my desk, and it is quiet enough so that I'm not aware of it when I'm working (other than the breeze :-). Now that I'm listening for it, it does produce a soft "whooshing" noise. It's hard to hear if you're more than 5 feet away from it. I hope this helps you.

The fan is very quiet. I haven't tried sitting it on a desk yet. The airspeed is NOT adjustable and the area that disperses the air is very, very small. I like it's small size but it doesn't deliver enough air for me.

I have not had this problem. I'm fortunate to have a desk that is adjustable at work so I don't go fast on it so I can work and exercise at the same time or not sound like I'm out of breath while on the phone.
