A Cool Trend

Appliances aren’t always the most popular gift, but the innovative design of this new table fan ($300, Dyson.com) make it the exception to the rule. The fan draws air into the base, forces it up through the mechanism, amplifies it and pushes it back out through the ring at the top. Since there are no blades to break up the flow, it feels like a constant, steady stream of air is rushing towards you.
