SAVE or SPLURGE: We chose to ✨SAVE✨ on this fan💰💵🥹

When planning the budget, the question is always - should we SPLURGE💸 or SAVE💵 on this item? For our kitchen fan, we chose to SAVE.💰💰💰

We wanted a cooling kitchen but we also didn’t want to spend so much on the kitchen fan.

Then, we came across this cool, high-tech looking, bladeless fan from Taobao that had positive reviews online.

💰 Price: We got this fan at a whopping… (make a guess?)

.

$65! 💵

When we suggested this fan to our ID, our ID was more than happy. 😄 She said she had been suggesting this fan to other homeowners but nobody wanted to take up this idea cos of their own preferences (nth wrong w that!)

So we’re v happy that we got a stamp of approval from our ID (who has a better sense of aesthetics than us). 🤩

We put this fan up on the wall of the entrance of our close kitchen where it’s not rly visible from outside unless you step in to the kitchen (actually so far a lot of guests have gone past without actually noticing this fan LOL cos it kinda blends in w the wall) 👀

things we like about this fan:

👍🏻 keeps us cool when cooking or doing food prep 🌬️ (rly saved us on many days!)

👍🏻 oscillates to either side of the kitchen (we have a galley kitchen w countertop on 2 sides)

👍🏻 provides air circulation

👍🏻 futuristic looking 🤖

👍🏻 wall mount - doesn’t take up precious kitchen work space

👍🏻 bladeless - easy to clean

👍🏻 DOESNT BURN A HOLE IN OUR POCKET (rly saved us 💰💰💰) 🔥

things we may not like as much:

🙈 not a silent fan (loudest fan in our hse LOL)

🙈 it came in an international 2-pin plug (but we manually changed it to the Singapore type 3-pin plug)

🙈 not the strongest fan in the hse (but our kitchen space is small so we’d say it’s sufficient)

🙈 remote control operated — cannot lose the remote control

🙈 no local warranty

But thankfully all the things we may not like as much, we’re okay and it’s still acceptable to us. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

When we bought this fan from Taobao, it was a hit-or-miss situation for us. We always expect our Taobao purchases to be a risk taken — it may be good or flawed or bad. But boiiii were we glad that it’s a hit💥 & it’s a ✨no-regret✨ for us! 😍

So here’s a consideration and uncommon❓ household appliance that we’d like to share! ☺️
