This VonHaus Stove Fan is constructed from aluminium with a black finish and includes a carry handle for portability. It’s suitable for use in any room and can be mounted directly onto a tabletop or stove top. Please note that the fan only starts spinning once the stove top reaches operating heat, and placement may require some adjustment to ensure optimal airflow.
