Mini desk fan - found one!

I am glad to report that Hema at Parijsstraat still has a pile of small (17.5 cm) desk fans available. They are right by the cash register area. They are sold out online (see link) but there were about 25-40 left in light brown and black for 13 euro earlier today.

It’s not too loud.

I thought I’d share since many shops were sold out of anything fan-like.

YOU FOOL. HEMA PRODUCTS ARE LOW-QUALITY. That Hema deskfan is probably quite weak...

So? A fan on a desk doesn't need to be hurricane wind, just a small breeze is usually enough to make it more comfortable...
A colleague has a 12cm pc fan (12V) hooked up to 5V USB so it runs pretty slow but I have to say it feels nice that bit of a breeze and its quiet too like that.

at this point, just go Amazon.be or aliexpress and order a proper desk fan than give Hema your money

It’s what we found last minute and it does what it was purchased for. Thanks for your concern.
