I bought this fan and I was very pleased about the way it looked and felt. However after a few weeks, the pin broke, so the bamboo pieces were sliding off of one side. I fixed it with a bit of superglue, and then the silk started to fall off of the bamboo. Then the pin broke in half, so there was really no fixing it. This fan is definitely not worth the money, you can get much cheaper ones which will probably last longer.
