The is the second Zippi fan that I own, and they are GREAT. They are definitely "personal" fans; the breeze created probably only reaches about 6 ft from the fan (if that). But they are perfect for on your desk at work (SUPER QUIET), or next to your bed at night. And every time I bump into it and get slapped by the soft, fabric blades, I laugh. What's not to love! I would like to buy one of these for everyone I know. They fold down small for easy storage too.
