How do you make the attachment between the clip & the fan stay still? Mine just flops around.

Unfortunately, the screw will not tighten well enough to keep the fan in place. Yeah, mine just flops too. Find your desired position and wrap a piece of tape around the fan and one of the clamp handles. Looks terrible, but works perfect. The fan itself works pretty well, but its made pretty cheaply.

Do you mean the clip is not strong enough to hold the fan and the fan flops around as a result?

There is no chord or place for a chord on the actual fan. I suggest contacting mink aire.

Sorry I just play around with mine until it comes off. I have the same problem

NO sorry mine does the same thing and I can't seem to get it too stop either! It was great until I moved it to another place and then it just sits now! I really think they should replace it with a better model for us all ! Mine is just a dust magnet now ! :( very sad! Don't buy this one and tell a friend!

Hi sorry to hear about the issue. If you have tried everything with no luck, would suggest swapping it out for another. 1 of 3 I purchased we ended up returning. Now, we got ours at a local store so I didn't have to hassle with repackaging/shipping. My sister bought one and had issues as well. I commented on the table top version of this fan that unfortunately the manufacturer is not very consistent, or that QA is lacking. Despite the little issue i had, I am very very satisfied with my purchases. Good luck and I hope you get to enjoy your fan soon!

Just got mine for christmas and mine is doing the same thing....Hangs down 2-3 inches....Will take down and see if there are some screws in the hing joint to tighten this problem....

Find the oscillating switch on the back near the cord. We prefer that it NOT oscillate as we love to just aim the fan. It is a great fan and we own two.

Mine just snaps closed. Maybe yours is defective. I love mine. There are some youtube videos that show it. Maybe try there for more info.

I had the exact same problem. I don't know why or how the fan cover cannot be removed. I'm guessing I should of emailed the company. Mine ended up breaking and I bought a different brand. Sorry

Perhaps yours has the same problem mine did, and leaked some glue! It was very hard to turn it loose.

Forgot to mention, the case fan is quite loud so I would either replace it with a quiet one or get a simple fan speed controller. This is what i got. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000292DO0

The fan if clipped sideways can only move up and down. If clipped sideways (like on a bar for an example), then it can move left to right. So yeah, there are limitations to how you can move the fan around. The clip is strong, will clip on to things well.

Yes, like other replies, I had the same problem at first. I saw a picture showing that the separation is just past the clip, which was helpful. I have heard that they get looser and looser over time, so the next question we will be asking is how to get the cap to stay on.

It should just pull off from one of the corners. All of mine did, so I don't know. Maybe try dampening it?

My clip does not swivel at all, nor would I want it to. Maybe yours is just defective?

Slide the other clip under the one you want to attach ( or any other firm object) and push . Poorest design I've ever seen . It will fall off when you don't want it to. If you want to detach it, it's impossible.

I get the same "slop". Barely moves a fraction of a millimeter but enough to be annoying. It appears that many have this problem when I do a search. Seems many are coming up with clever ways to fix this...many are adding a thin piece of rubber to tighten everything up.
