I seldom write reviews, but couldn't stop myself. People noted this laptop fan's faults, however the price seemed right. You know the expression if something is too good to be true ... Well this fan continues to disintegrate as I write this. I am down to 4 blades and a whining sound. I don't think I have actually used it more than a half dozen times. The stand collapses and hits the countertop and with that another blade bites the dust. Saying nothing about my laptop.My advice ... spend a little more money and get a sturdier fan if you need it.
