Seriously, this is a really cool fan.

I live in Phoenix, and it gets hot here. Really hot. We are just barely into June and it is warming up pretty quickly. In preparation for the impending 4 or 5 months of oven-like temperatures and in an effort to save money on the electric bill, I got a new fan for my room to use while sleeping. It is a Seville Classics UltraSlimline Tower Fan. Let me just say, this is a seriously cool fan. From the picture below, you will notice that it comes with a remote (a necessary feature to sell anything electronic in America) and a little mini fan for . . . something.



This fan has timing features, three speed selections, and it oscillates. It also has two very cool features I am eager to explore more: the "natural wind" feature (select low, medium, or high speed) and the "sleeping wind" feature (again, select low, medium, or high). The "sleeping wind" (the name alone is intriguing enough for me) feature allows the air to flow "as an evening breeze slowing to a light night breeze." I am already so relaxed just typing that. The "natural wind" feature "automatically selects wind speeds randomly as you would find outdoors" and the instruction manual has intriguing graphs that show examples of the 80 second wind cycle for the low, medium, and high settings. This fan really does provide an excellent and convincing breeze. I am totally hooked. You should all get one. (Available at Costco! And I am not even getting paid for this!)

Hey Micah! It's Heather... saw a link on your facebook to your blog...

Anyway, I totally LOVE that fan. I bought two of them last summer- one set for home and one set for my classroom.
