Shark FlexBreeze Indoor Outdoor Portable Oscillating Fan with Remote Control Quiet Powerful Wired Wireless InstaCool FA222

Brilliant fan for the short time I've used it, moves a load of air, is whisper quiet at setting 1-3 and the remote is very handy. I've used the misting attachment on a friend's version, and it is also great, it really cools you down in this heat, but it does chuck out quite a lot of water even as a fine mist so you will want to keep it away from electronics etc. Now for the negatives unrelated to the fan. Unfortunately, I am in the same boat as many of the other reviewers that the products I received is the US model with an incompatible power supply. I have tried to arrange a replacement/refund and the "specialist" I spoke to had the following to say. Prince Cyrel: "First of all it's clearly not our fault since you're the one who purchased this item and shipped it on US. and now you want a refund here on Amazon uk." - so as a heads up to all of us UK that purchased this product completely unaware of what we'd be receiving and hoped to get some help from customer service, the "service" I've received will just assign blame and talk down to you for not knowing (even though it isn't mentioned anywhere) what you'd be receiving. Very disappointed with the chat I've had but I'm reluctant to return the product because it's out of stock in a lot of places or a lot more expensive. Just an fyi for others in this position, some research indicates a UK 3 pin Adapter 100-240V AC Input, 12V DC Output rated at 4amps or 5amps might be appropriate but do your own research first to be sure.

They Fan does not worth the money I paid for it. took ages to come when it arrive the package was very good & secure in the 3 boxes it came it. However the socket is not British! I think its American! The manufacturers should have made us known the socket plug is not British. I am very disappointed also I dont know how to fit the other parts the instruction is not clear to me. I wish I could send it back but it too much hassle. My sister wanted one after seeing mine she didnt bother to order. Ledil are selling tower fans for £59.99 & they are brilliant with 3 year guarteen & got remote control

Really disappointed with this purchase. The fan I received isn’t suitable for use in the UK as it came with a US 120V two-pin plug rather than a UK 230–240V plug. This isn’t something that was made clear before ordering, and it means the fan can’t simply be plugged in and used. After looking through other reviews, it seems I’m not the only person this has happened to, so it appears UK customers are being sent the wrong version. Yes, it’s possible to buy a voltage converter, but that’s an extra cost and inconvenience that shouldn’t fall on the customer when purchasing from the UK site. I’ve always found Amazon to be reliable, which makes this even more frustrating. I hope this listing is corrected or the appropriate UK version is supplied in future, as I’m sure many other customers will be caught out by the same issue. I can't find anywhere to get support with these issues

So bought this fan and was eagerly waiting for its arrival as it got shipped out from the US. When it came it had the US power outlet. After looking over the product on the internet realised I only needed a UK power outlet as the models for UK and US are identical. So i went ahead and bought a UK power outlet for £25.99 that amazon covered with a gift card as i complained about the issue and wallah it arrives and it works fine. When buying the power outlet you won’t find the Fa222 model power outlet. Purchase the FA220 model power outlet and that is all you need. The fan is brilliant but only giving it a 3 star due to all the inconvenience. I also managed to get compensation for all the convenience too. Do not return it if you have waited a while for the delivery, just do as I have said above and you shall be fine.

Unfortunately we are now the proud owner of this product , of which we are unable to charge owing to the American 120v 2 pin mains connection. After referring to other clients who have bought the same fan it now becomes obvious that you are shipping this product for use in the UK which is incompatible with the mains plug. I am very upset about this as clearly Amazon should have sorted this out , but clearly all shipments to people in the UK are returning owing to this issue. Obviously we are able to purchase a conversion plug, but this is at an additional cost to ourselves, not acceptable. We buy regularly with Amazon and have always been happy with its customer service, however you need to sort this issue ASAP.

Had to return as did not have UK plug. Fast refund and very easy return. Awaiting new UK stock to reorder

This is an American fan. It comes with an American plug socket. I am in England. There was nothing to specify that it will have an American plug? My Amazon is set in England so I don’t understand how I have been sold this without clear instructions.

Very disappointed to find this item not fitted with a British plug I feel that I should have been informed of this or an adapter included you don’t expect to purchase items you can’t use. Looks a good product but can’t try it as I need to wait for an adaptor I have many other shark items all fitted with English plugs.

Excellent customer service! The unit stopped working after a year. Reached out to support on the shark website after following all troubleshooting instructions and they sent me a replacement with just a $10 shipping charge. It works great and it’s so quiet. Holds a charge well. Versatile with the table top option. And I absolutely love the mist attachment!

Fantástico ventilador, no hace ruido y tiene mucha potencia, el precio en oferta vale la pena. Es un producto que parece ser de largo plazo de uso. Me gustó y sí lo volvería a comprar.

Excelente producto, fácil de armar y muy buena potencia. Apenas acabo de instalarlos pero buena primera impresión al menos conectado, ojalá así se mantengan. Probaré el modo sin cable para comprobar la duración y potencia.

I highly recommend this fan! It's very powerful but very very quiet, which I was not expecting. It's lovely to be able to turn it on and control it from the other side of the room thanks to the remote- and to actually FEEL the airflow. This is not like your average fan. I know there are other fans that also have a remote but they don't compare at all to this! It gets very warm where I live and there is always some sort of activity I can be doing (gardening, sitting on the patio, having a BBQ outside) but if it's too hot I don't feel up to it. The mist attachment is a game changer. It truly makes such a difference in handling the heat outside. I took the fan to my parents house to show them how cool it was (literally and figuratively) and they've also decided to buy one too.

I love Shark products for their quality and ease of use. I have so many in my home, but was initially skeptical when I ordered this. So many brands claim their fans are quiet and are still super loud even on the lowest setting. I historically have purchased Vornado tower fans, and they are obnoxiously loud with poor air flow. But oh my GOSH this fan is quiet! It’s beyond quiet, it’s practically silent. There are so many features - adjustable angle with wider oscillation distance (up to 180°, so you can actually get full room air flow), quiet, nice and cool, but powerful air flow (even on the lowest setting), it can be used corded or CORDLESS (hello!) and can convert between tower and table top. It’s also great for both indoors and outdoors. Assembly was extremely easy, great quality and the base is very sturdy. Seriously, what is not to love about this fan? Wish they made this years ago; definitely cheaper than running the AC all day and night. Worth every single penny. I also recommend purchasing the fan cover to keep it clean when not in use during the off season. Very easy to get on and off and keeps your fan dust free. Thank you Shark for making the best fan on the market!
