Packing for college is so much fun. But while picking out bed sheets and wall posters is easy, remembering to bring the more boring essentials — like a fan — can be the tough part.

College dorm rooms can quickly get hot and stuffy. Since you're living in a small space with another person — and if you have any friends come and hang out in your room — you're going to want a fan to cool down and relax in your space. And since you want it to match your decor and not take up too much room, we did a little digging to find 10 that would work perfectly in a dorm. Keep reading to shop them all now.
