I bought this at a Walgreen's pharmacy. They were 3 for $10 to be used for party favors for my daughter's 9th birthday party. The problem is not with the fan part: that spins fine. It's with the LED letters. I've had 2 so far for my daughter. The first one had leaky batteries, so I assumed that was the probelem, and I returned it. The second worked for a few hours, then the lettering got all messed up. I removed and replaced the batteries per the directions, but that doesn't help. I'll return it for a 3rd devices, but my hopes aren't high. I don't know how the others worked, as we gave them to the girls in their gift bags as they were leaving.
I just found out how to fix it. You pull off the fan part, and bend the two very little metal contacts forward. Then push the fan on well, This seems to have helped, although I've had to do it a few times. With this fix, I'd increase the rating to 2 or 3 stars ( I can't see how to change the rating) as it is very cool when it's working

I was looking for a fan, not a toy. The messages can be cute, but this is no good as a fan.
