'A must-buy for any vacation': This bestselling handheld fan is down to $14

This summer has been an absolute scorcher.

In these cases, a personal fan can be your new best friend, especially if the gizmo in question is the No. 1 bestselling Jisulife 3-in-1 Handheld Fan, with its "fan base" of more than 44,000 chill shoppers.

Why is this a good deal? ??

This personal fan is almost 50% off and at $14 is at its lowest price all year. So you really can't go wrong — especially as the temperatures stay stifling. But it's no sweat to grab this deal before it runs out (and before things keep heating up).

Why do I need this? ??

The first thing you might notice about this sleek device is its adorable bear-shaped design. But it doesn't sacrifice function for form: It provides up to 21 hours of cooling time when fully charged, and it folds down into a little tube less than 5 inches long for space-saving transport. Speaking of charging: The Jisulife includes a built-in USB power bank and flashlight, making it pretty much everything you need while you're on the go. If you're planning more of a staycation, this small wonder can be folded in half, propped up and used as a desk fan to beat the heat.

Not only will this compact cub cutie help you stay cool while you're braving the lines at Disney or spending time in nature, it'll also keep your phone juiced up. We've all experienced the horror of a dwindling battery with zero outlets in sight, so having this nifty gadget on hand is absolutely essential. At night, the flashlight function is useful when you're digging around your bag for your keys or need help seeing where you're going.

What reviewers say ??

More than 44,000 five-star reviewers say this is one fan club you want to be part of.

Pros ??

"Must-buy for Disney!" exclaimed one enthusiastic shopper. "I love this fan so much! I take it with me on every trip to Disney World. Every time I am in the park, I get asked by 10-plus people for the link to this product. It's lightweight, foldable, has a good battery life and blows amazing cold air. This is the only way I could enjoy Disney World in the summer. Highly recommend."

Another reviewer called it a "summer essential," adding, "It fits perfectly in my purse. Comes in handy in the Louisiana heat. Battery life lasted for about two weeks for me. Also, the flashlight is very bright and the perfect addition."

It's useful for another, more personal kind of heat wave too: "I'm a mature woman and often get hot flashes," said one happy customer. "This handheld mini fan is a godsend! It doesn't take up much room, holds a charge nicely and you can set it on a table and point it at you as well. As a safety measure, it has an automatic cutoff if you hit the blades on anything. It was a good deal. I'm very happy with my purchase."

This would-be hot-and-bothered devotee owns four fans and agrees: "Perfect for camping or hotel or hot flashes."

"A fan, flashlight and power bank!" trumpeted one satisfied customer. "It is inexpensive and worked amazingly! Kept me cool during the 100-degree Florida heat. It lasted the entire day at the amusement park. The power bank got my dying phone charged right back up. This is a must-buy for any vacation."

Cons ??

If you're using this outside, you won't notice any issues — but inside, it might be a little loud. "The only downside is that it's a tiny bit noisy, certainly not a deal breaker, but I don't think I'd want to use this somewhere that needs quiet," said one buyer.

Shoppers have also said it can be a bit tough to open, and that a handle would help. "My only complaint is that it should have a knob to pull when opening. Otherwise, it cools you down well! It's sturdy and rechargeable." Another buyer said the same: "Opening it is a little challenging to me, but other than that I highly recommend!"
