summer is here, Portable fans are trending. And for good reason – there’s no need to suffer from heat and humidity when you can enjoy a fresh, cool breeze wherever you go for just $10. Your Prime day(s) may be coming to an end, but you still have until midnight PT to shop. If you want to try out a handheld fan, consider this your hint.

This fan looks like a little bear when closed, and the soft plastic blades stop instantly if they hit something. (I’ve accidentally hit myself in the face a few times with this fan — no, I won’t answer questions right now — which is amazing, but I can confirm it’s painless.) As a bonus, it can also serve as a flashlight with a bottom-mounted light, or a power bank for your phone.
This also has soft plastic blades, but it also doesn’t work as a power bank or flashlight. He comes in six stylish colors (mostly pastels) and has cute pointed ears on the top when closed.
WIRED reviewer Kristen Canning’s favorite thing about this fan is the fact that it can bend, so you can place it on a table for hands-free cooling. My favorite thing about this fan, after trying similar models from other brands, is that it lacks the high-pitched jet engine sound that many modern fan engines seem to emit. To be clear, that doesn’t mean this fan is quiet, but I’ll stick with “unobtrusive.”
This scope-style bladeless fan is easy to carry and hold, as there is a small lanyard that opens at the bottom, and comes with a velvet carrying bag. It doesn’t work as a flashlight or phone charger, but it does come with a digital display that shows the remaining battery life. The maximum wind speed is impressive—807 feet per minute—but that makes this fan louder than the smaller models pictured above.
It’s a regular fan, misting fan, and cooling-inspired cool pad all in one! This trendy new gadget from Shark is only $20 off if you want one of the main colors, but now The rose gold is on deep discount for just $100. It’s a bit of a hassle, and each accessory has to be used separately, but I use the cool plate accessory a lot – it does a better job of cooling than any regular fan.
