With more and more people working at home these days, and as telecommuting seems to be establishing itself as somewhat of a “new normal,” we thought it would be a great opportunity to review some of the best and most popular office fans and cooling devices from the OPOLAR product line.
In case you haven’t yet heard of them, OPOLAR is fast becoming one of the best known and best selling of all brands on Amazon.
In fact, despite the fact that the company is only 5 (!) years old, they have taken their place in the top three sellers of electric fans on the Amazon website – an amazing achievement, given the age of the company, the vast number of fans sold on Amazon and the high quality of so many of the other manufacturers represented there!
Is OPOLAR a Good Company?
When you examine any OPOLAR product more closely it is easy to understand why they have gotten so popular so quickly, and why the company is becoming known for some important basic qualities:
- High-Quality Construction – Especially for the Price
- High Levels of Performance and Effectiveness
- Ingenious and Intelligent Engineering
- Attractive Design
- Extremely Good Value
- Reliability
- Great Customer Service and Support
Here at Know the Flo we have used many different OPOLAR products and loved them all, finding them to be nice looking and well built and to work really well, doing exactly what they are meant to do and then some.

What OPOLAR Office Products are Best for Me?
This buyer’s guide will include the best and most popular OPOLAR products in these five categories:
- Small USB Powered Desk Fan – OPOLAR Small USB Desktop Fan
- Large USB Powered Desk Fan – OPOLAR F11 Large USB Desktop Fan
- Rechargeable Battery Powered Desk Fan – OPOLAR WH210 SuperPower 10,000 mAh Rechargeable Desktop Fan
- Laptop Cooling Fan – OPOLAR LC-06 Variable Speed Laptop Cooling Fan with Temperature Display
- Ceramic Space
Heater – OPOLAR HE03 Ceramic Space Heater for Small and Medium Rooms
This cute little fan, available in three colour combinations, packs a surprisingly strong wallop, and its extra quiet operation means it will never distract you while you’re working (or Crushing Candy…).
USB powered, this OPOLAR F422 desktop fan has a 40-degree adjustable head to direct the cool air exactly where you want it, and the nearly five-foot-long USB cable lets you position it optimally.
For more flexibility in the placement, however, you may want to consider a longer USB cable, like this well made AmazonBasics 3 Meter USB Extension Cable.
Even this OPOLAR F-422 fan can, despite its tiny size and utter simplicity, save you big money on utility bills, as you will be less tempted to turn the AC up – not to mention that it itself uses just the tiniest trickle of electricity.
A great product for the money, the OPOLAR small USB desktop fan is quite effective, quiet, well made and inexpensive – an easy recommendation!
Includes desk fan and 1.5 meter USB power cable. For much more flexibility in placement and cooling, you should also consider the high-quality AmazonBasics 3 Meter USB Extension Cable.
Although not taking up much more desk space than its powerful little sibling, the OPOLAR F511 large USB powered desktop fan `does move considerably more air.
Designed like a large industrial floor fan, but in miniature, the OPOLAR large USB fan has a head that can swivel a full 360 degrees, making it easier to control the flow and get the cool air exactly where you need it.
Designed like a large industrial floor fan, but in miniature, the OPOLAR large USB fan has a head that can swivel a full 360 degrees, making it easier to control the flow and get the cool air exactly where you need it.
As such, this OPOLAR F-511 fan may be a better choice for cooling not just your personal space, but a larger area of your office as well – or simply if you want a lot more cooling, live in a warmer climate or have an especially sunny office, studio or workspace.
It’s also a great choice if you work outside.
And, like the small OPOLAR USB fan above, this larger model can save you considerably on your utility bills, keeping you and your office cool without having to rely on your expensive AC or larger, more energy-consuming fans.
The OPOLAR F511 large USB desktop fan is one of the most effective desktop fans we’ve ever used and gets our enthusiastic recommendation.
Includes desk fan and 1.2 meter USB power cable. For much more flexibility in placement and cooling, you should also consider the high-quality AmazonBasics 3 Meter USB Extension Cable.
The next item in our Tele-Commuter’s Special 2020 OPOLAR buyer’s guide is even more versatile than the large USB fan reviewed just above.
The OPOLAR WH-210 SuperPower 10,000 mAh rechargeable desktop fan has two separate fan heads, which can be turned and directed separately, as well as wide-angle oscillation, allowing for not only the strong output of cool air but maximum coverage of your whole work area from a single small desktop fan.
The OPOLAR SuperPower desktop fan is also very flexible because of its huge (10,000 mAh) USB rechargeable battery, which allows for anywhere from 6 to 24 hours of use on a single charge.
So you can move from your indoor office to the deck, patio or garden, or anywhere you’d like, and easily take the WH210 with you. You can even use it overnight on your bedside table while you sleep, or wherever you are.
Fast charging, ultra-quiet, well made and reliable, the OPOLAR WH210 SuperPower 10,000 mAh Rechargeable Desktop Fan is one of the best personal fans we’ve ever used and got our strong recommendation for a rechargeable desktop fan.
POLAR also makes the same basic model of the fan, but with a smaller battery and a slightly lower price, which you can find here: OPOLAR 5,000 mAh Rechargeable Oscillating Desktop Fan, and a less expensive but quite powerful plugin (120 volts) oscillating desktop fan, which you can find here: OPOLAR Mini Tower Oscillating Desktop Fan. Both are great fans and typically fine OPOLAR products, and both are also highly recommended.
The next item in our OPOLAR 2020 buyer’s guide is a fan not for you, but for your computer.
An ingenious and effective accessory, the OPOLAR LC-06 laptop cooler mounts onto the side of your laptop and pulls hot air directly out of the vent, keeping the CPU and internal components cooler, improving performance and even making your computer last longer.
The LC06 laptop fan also has a clear and easy to read temperature display and built-in temperature monitor, so that you can easily see how well it’s working and make adjustments to the 13-speed adjustable fan as needed.
The OPOLAR LC-06 laptop cooling fan will mount so firmly onto your notebook computer that it will even stay in place when you move the computer around. And it runs so quietly that it won’t be a distraction in any environment, no matter how quiet the surroundings.
A brilliant gadget and an extremely useful tool, the OPOLAR LC-06 variable speed laptop cooling fan with temperature display is the most effective notebook computer cooling device we’ve tested and got a big recommendation.
And to end our official 2020 OPOLAR in-depth buyer’s guide on a hot note, we turn now not to fans, but to a great ceramic space
The OPOLAR HE03 ceramic space heater is one of the most effective heaters we have tried (and we’ve tried a lot!), and a perfect choice to keep your work area warm and cosy during the coming winter months.
And, just like the OPOLAR fans reviewed above, the HE03 space
The OPOLAR HE-03 has ultra-simple and ultra-reliable mechanical control switches to adjust its three heat modes – high (1500 watts), medium (1000 watts), and fan only – and its combination of ceramic element and forced air fan means you can enjoy the deep-down feeling of radiant heat while still filling your whole office with warm air.
The OPOLAR HE03 ceramic space heater will automatically shut off if it gets tipped over or if it overheats, and between these safety features and its super-quiet operation, you can work away all day without any distractions.
Big enough to really heat your office and yet small enough to be unobtrusive, the OPOLAR HE03 ceramic space
Another great OPOLAR product, the HE03 ceramic space
