This is an awesome, quite little fan. For its price, it is surely durable. I like that it is made of durable metal and can plug into the wall, no usb charging. I also like the mounts that come with it; one could do a great many things with this well-designed fan. Though I use it for small soldering projects, it could easily be mounted into a wall or some form of a boxed heating structure to make a heater (check online projects to do so safely).
My one suggestion, if you are after one of the best small fans on the market and choose this one, be sure to get the control knob when you buy it. There is no reason to have both power cords, really, and, chances are, if you buy it with out the control cord, you will end up wanting it, anyway. The control cord works great. Remember to pay attention to the airflow arrow on the part of the fan where the cord plugs in 'before' installation. This is one nice fan. :)
