Find out firsthand why Chinook is everyone’s favorite fan

Create a comfortable and cool atmosphere with the simplicity of an original Chinook. Imagined by world class Canadian manufacturer and industry leader Caframo, gone are the days of bulky, loud and ineffective electric fans. A much favored product from the Comfort Solutions line, Chinook has become a household name and earned its reputation as a dependable, energy efficient electric fan. Standing only 7 inches tall, its compact yet solid design is expertly built with Canadian quality and innovation to take up very little space, and its versatile stand with anti-slip rubber feet allows it to be placed just about anywhere. A choice desk fan, Chinook’s whisper quiet motor won’t disturb you while you work, and its patented FingerSafe blade will even stop when touched, so kids and kittens will never be harmed. Chinook is also a thoughtful gift idea for any one that works in a stuffy office or a hot kitchen as it provides maximum airflow with minimum footprint. When not in use, it can be easily stored and cleaning the blade is a breeze thanks to its grill-free design, cleverly crafted for enhanced performance.
