np.
well i ended up getting a different fan: the AFK (away from keyboard LOL) type evt.53 because it is all white and the other one had a blue propeller which really didnt fit my other stuff in the room.
although very plasticky and a hardly noticeable difference between speed setting 1 and 2, it seems pretty solidly built. The power cord is long enough, it has a 'swivel' option and it won't cut your finger off if you stick them into the propeller.
the only problem is, that although better than nothing, the air it blows is warm.

fill a bottle with water, put it in the freezer, let it lie there overnight or until frozen and put it behind the fan.

all fans do this. fans don't alter the temperature the air in the room.
there would be a big difference if i splashed my face with water first, but i would have to repeat that every few minutes or so.
DM: does that really work?

250 fucking euros for a fan? Is there like some sort of upper tier of super high quality fans for ventilatophiles that I was unaware of?

hahaha i don't have a fan or ac it's all about the dehumidifier, loud as fuck but if you keep your house closed up in the summer and leave the damned thing on durring the day it stays nice and cool inside
and it's cheaper than central air

it's SERIOUSLY not the heat, it's the amount of water in the air, water circulates slower and will absorb heat and keep it for longer, when you dehumidify all of a sudden you're not sweating and it's even better 'cause you don't have an irritating fan pointing at you, nor do you have that one spot in the room that shoots violent cold air at you

Im getting the feeling that Europeans aren't too familiar w/ air conditioning and really hot weather in general. Is it unusually hot over there these days?

yes i have, for all i know it's the same heat here now, i thought however humidity mattered only in tropical climats. furhtermore the summers seem to get really hot the last years because of the climate change. im not too familiar with air conditioning and a humidifier not at all, sounds pretty good though

a selection of countries in europe: sweden & greece. for example. try a map sometime :)
it's big! just like the climate is different in various states in america!
humidity wise, we don't get to complain. I hear Florida is the worst when it comes to that. Although algonquin park in ontario felt like a tropical rainforest too when i was there.
