Elena and I ordered one each of this: http://www.sharperimage.com/us/en/catalog/productview.jhtml?pid=34878400
We tried it for 2 days.
We are pissed and we want our money back.
Not only does it not work, it also sucks in your hair through the little fan air-intake--and pulls on your hair hard until your hair jams the fan, and the unit is dead.
The fuckers are not returning my email. We're calling them tonight to verbally bitch-slap them. |

Ive always wanted to try one when I worked outside. Man when its 110 outside and your on a utility pole 20 feet in the air it gets freaking HOT!
But it looked too cheap and far fetched to actually work well enough to be worth looking like a fool and forking out the money.
( te he, Luna bought TWO!!) |

I've always preferred soaking a washrag in ice cold water.

Well, that's that. I called them and bitched, and we'll get a full refund, except the import tax we got charged when China's customs intercepted our package.
Sharper Image used to be a company I respect. Now they're on my shit list. |

I think your glossing over the fact that you bought Sharper Images equivelant to X-RAY SPECS.
Now their AIR IONIZER/PURIFIER thingy = That shit WORKS!!!! ( lotsa BLING BLING THOUGH  ) |

What you need:
They sell bandanas with beads of gel in them. soak it in water, let it sit out over night or sit in the fridge....it'll chill like a mother fucker.........and stay that way the whole damn day around your neck. |
