You're here because either you realized how much cash a decent air conditioner will run ya, or you're tired of living in a hot, stuffy space!

And that's where these best cooling fans come in...

Why are they the best? you may be asking. It's a pretty bold claim, I will say! Well, I did the research and found near five-star rated cooling fans with the approval of tens of thousands of happy customers. You'll find an array of blade and bladeless options that will fit the needs of you and your home below like tower fans, desk options, and personal fans. Plus, most of these fans have super quiet motors, a wide oscillation range, and multiple power and speed settings so you can personalize the strength and tempo of the wind. Peep some of our faves below!

Ahead, 17 cooling fans with excellent ratings and reviews. FYI: Every single one of these are from Amazon, and you know what that means! Two words: Prime. Shipping.—aka f-r-e-e shipping. (If you don't have an Amazon Prime account, I suggest you get on that STAT.)

Tower Fan 42 Inch, Cruiser Pro T1

With over 19,000 rave reviews, you already know that this bladeless tower fan is worth every penny. It’s really got the works! From six speed levels to four modes for personalized cooling (sleep, auto, normal, and natural) to a 90-degree angled oscillation, you'll be ordering one for every room in your house as soon as you experience it.

783 Full-Size Whole Room Air Circulator Fan

Wherever you're trying to feel that airflow—down low or up high—trust that this fan will provide. The removable head is fully adjustable and can expand from a height of 28 inches to 40 inches.

Pure Cool TP01 Air Purifier and Fan - White/Silver

Known for its cult-favorite, high-tech hair tools, and vacuums, Dyson's luxury fans are also just as sought-after. Its sleek and simple design seamlessly blends in with any type of furniture and home decor. Plus, this one purifies! Its 360-degree filtration system removes odors and gases from the whole room with the HEPA-filter that captures nearly 100 percent of nasty particles. The automatic filter-life notifications on the fan will let you know when it's time to replace it.

Desk Fan

Perfect if you work from home all day (or if your office's A/C just isn't cutting it), this small desk fan is just as good as an average cooling fan sans the bulkiness. It'll give you that refreshing breeze throughout the day—soft or strong, depending on which speed you choose out of the three—while only taking up a couple of inches of real estate. And if you're using it at your house, its lightweight, portable design allows you to bring it to any room you'd like! Place it on your nightstand if you want more direct air while you're sleeping.

VFAN Jr. Vintage Air Circulator Fan, Vintage White

Let's be real: It's hard to come by fans that are aesthetically pleasing. But this cute, vintage-inspired table fan is proof that they do, indeed, exist! Customers not only love it for its chic look but also for its sturdiness, quiet motor, and power. One buyer said it's so well-built that it's lasted her for eight years (and counting!). While it does only have two speed options, it's just enough if you want a light breeze.

Portable Bladeless Fan

Keeping your desk space cool is priority number one during the hot summer months, which is where this little gadget comes in. Not only does this bladeless fan fit perfectly on top of a desk or workspace, it's also cute enough to add a bit of personality.

Portable Foldable Fan

Can't decide between a tall pedestal fan and a shorter desk fan? Why not get both? This 2-in-1 foldable fan has an adjustable height, so you can change it to suit your needs. Plus, it can hold a battery charge, meaning you can take it anywhere with you, even on a camping trip.

Personal Mini Fan

This mini fan is smaller than some smart phones, making it the perfect on-the-go accessory for when the temps outside are just too damn high.

pureFlow QT7

This unique fan can move 90 degrees vertically and horizontally, so it can circulate air all over the room. It's quiet, and has 12 different fan settings.

Tower Fan with Remote Control

Cosmo's senior shopping editor Kim Duong bought this so you should too. Why? First of all, it was the prettiest tower fan she could find, and we all know how important exteriors are! But she was also in search of one that was damn near mute because she's planning to use it while she sleeps. And tons of buyers have said that it's extremely quiet! A spec that did really sell her though was that when it's in night mode, it dims all the lights on the fan. So if you're on the hunt for a nighttime fan, you're looking at it!

Bladeless Tower Fan and Air Purifier

Yep, this tower fan can cool ya off and purify air...at the same time! No matter what setting you have it on out of its three modes and nine speed settings, its built-in HEPA-Filter will trap pollutants and disperse clean air back into your space. This is an especially great option for people who have asthma or deal with allergies.

Oscillating Dual Blade Standing Pedestal Fan with Remote

If you need a fan ASAP and you're not trying to drop bank on it either, go for this traditional one by Amazon that nearly 31,000 customers swear by. For less than 50 bucks, it has three power modes, three airflow modes, a LED display screen, and you can adjust its height and tilt. That's quite a deal if you ask me!

3-Speed Box Fan

A box fan will do the job for ya at an affordable price point. This 21-inch tall and wide style with three speeds is one you can place on the floor or on your window sill. Unlike other box fans, it's slimmer and won't take up as much space.

Handheld Mini Fan

For all my fellow Sweaty Girls out there, a personal fan is a necessity in life. You can whip it out of your purse or pocket whenever you're feeling hot and sticky. But the best part? It has a built-in flashlight and power bank—aka you can use it to charge your phone and/or other electronic devices.

Portable Fan

The super flexible tripod attachment on this thing allows you to latch this fan onto legit pretty much anything. It can wrap around a chair or an exercise machine, or you can adjust it so that it stands on a table. It's a super convenient gadget for when you're traveling to warm destinations!

Neck Fan

You can have a fan wherever you are hands-free! Put this one with a 360-degree surround design around your neck, turn it on, choose your desired speed, and you'll be cool all day. Goodbye sweaty neck!

Battery Operated Misting Fan with Clip

Sometimes the wind from a fan just isn't enough! Behold: a tiny (but mighty!) fan with three different speeds that also has a mist feature. Choose its continuously spray mode if you want a constant water refresh or the intermittent spray mode if you just need a lil spritz here and there.
