can this fan stand on a table or other surface on its own? or do you have to hold it?

No,you have hold it. The 3 speed Travelon can sfand on its own but it cost little more.

You don't have to stand on it. I sit on a chair when I use it, and anyone I have ever had try it does the same.

It does not appear it w as designed to mount up side down but it does work ok in that position. It appears to have slotted type holes for mounting on the wall. If you do mount it on the ceiling holes would need to be drilled through the plastic base. I use the fan as a table mount .

As long as you stand it as show in the photo (in a W shape, not straight) it stands fine on its own. I haven't had any issues with mine.

Yes it blows straight as it rotates and you can have different settings so it doesn't blow on you all the time only as it rotates. We like this fan as does our son at his home. You would need to place it on a table or stool. We have ours on a square stool with gripper material and it s fine. Hope this helps.

You could but it wouldn't be stable as it isn't level with the handle being elevated at a slight angle. I hope that helps. Otherwise it is a great fan.

No stand. You can stand it on end, but you're better off laying it down with the fan pointing up to provide cooling. It actually works really well, and I like how it's constructed. Plus USB 3.0 and eSATA = win.

It's not designed to, but it does stand up on it's own fairly easily. I remember burning myself on it, after leaving it upright while cooking, haha.

I doesn't have a stand. It stands up on its own just fine. It's big and very beautiful.

No there is not a clip on the fan to clamp to a table or desk. It does have a metal stand that it will sit on the top of a table or desk.

It is stationary, you have to lock it into place. But, as others have said once you clip it onto something, you can then adjust the direction of fan and also the angle of it. So you can almost use it anywhere. I have mine upside down and hanging from the top of my computer hutch, and angled going into my gaming computer to keep my system cool. It does have 2 speeds, low and high. I have had mine on high (and left on) for almost 3 months now. I never turn it off. I love this little fan.

No. it will pivot on it's base with your hand. It's a great fan. I've got it for a replacement in my 4 Star horse trailer. It works great!

Fan can be used alone. Not very powerful, but will dry nails in reasonable amount of time.

I don't understand your first question but yes it stands on its own but not vertically only horizontally

Hello, The fan doesn't have a driven movement like a table fan. It manually can be pivoted on the stand. We own several Vornado product because of their quality. The concept of them is in how they move air. They shoot a long cone shaped tunnel of air which you can aim at the upper corner of a room (or ceiling) using the stationery pivot feature and air will gently and efficiently move thoughout the room. This fan is their most heavy duty and is powerful enough, without needing to be on high, to even push air up a staircase or across my basement. If you go to their website Vornado.com they explain it better than I can. BTW we own a 10 year old Vornado which we use daily! Hello, The fan doesn't have a driven movement like a table fan.

It won't stand up on its own. It needs to be mounted to a vertical surface.

If you have at least the minimum width for the fan as listed in its specifications, you can build a simple frame to hold the fan. I did this using 1 x 3 Red Oak and it worked wonderfully and it allowed me to use the Storm Guard feature to close my window when I am away. I went to the Air King site and they expressly discourage mounting the fan at a 90 degree angle to its intended installation. This is why I made a small frame within my sliding window casement. LOVE THIS FAN.
