These are great misting fans!The good:- it doesn't hurt when you touch the moving fan- the mist is very fine and reaches around 2 feet out because of the fan- it is comfortable to hold- it comes with 3 individual boxes - so you can give them to other people as little gifts- it is the perfect amount of water and moving air for sitting in the sun and watching my kids' play sportsThe bad: putting in the batteries is a pain in the rear!!!!!- You need a TINY screwdriver (I ended up having to go into my husbands random tools to find a screwdriver small enough)- It doesn't clearly state which way to put the batteries, you have to think about it- that screw is tiny and fell out when I was trying to put it back together and it took me ages to find the screwNow I don't know how long the batteries will last. (Hopefully a long time so I don't have to deal with changing the batteries.) But so long as the batteries last and I don't have to change them, then these are great misting bottles and my kids and husband are fighting over who gets to keep the other 2 bottles!
