According to Amazon shoppers, you need a portable neck fan—and this one is currently on sale for under $40.

"It's just the right amount of cool, the fan is not too loud, and I really appreciate my hair not flying all over my face or getting caught up in the tiny little fan blades," wrote one Southerner who titled their review "Perfect!" They also noted that the fan still feels cooling against their skin even when it isn't turned on. 

The wearable, fully adjustable fan is available in 17 different colors and patterns, and the outside of it is made from silicone. Further, the fan offers 360-degree air flow and cooling, and it has three speeds for you to use. Even if you have the fan set on the highest cooling setting, it will still remain silent just in case you decide to wear it while you're working. Shoppers note they turn to the fan for any type of outdoor activity, and they like that they can use it for up to 10 hours when the gadget's lithium batteries are fully charged. 

"This neck fan is wonderful," shared a reviewer who wears the device both around the house and at baseball tournaments. They continued, "It is very lightweight, and the battery lasts a long time before you can just plug it in to recharge." Another shopper was succinct when they simply called the fan a "lifesaver," writing that it provides "instant relief." 

Whether your summer adventures take you on vacation, to the ballpark, or on walks around your neighborhood, pick up a FrSara portable neck fan while the sale lasts and stay cool all season long.
