Table fan

A table fan is a portable electric fan designed to sit on a table, desk, or shelf and circulate air in a room. It’s one of the simplest and most common cooling devices for homes, offices, bedrooms, kitchens, and study areas — offering airflow without the complexity or cost of air conditioning.
