I'm a fan of this fan!
When you turn it on it heats up. How cool is that?
Well actually that's not technically cool because it does heat up.
But it can blow cool as well.
So in essence it blows hot and cold.

Bought this heater as an emergency, when the gas fire went down and it performed brilliantly.
Gas fire now up and running, but it will come in useful for those cool Spring ang Autumn evenings.
Variable speed and temperature settings.
