Shoppers rush to buy 'better than Dyson' cooling fan amid heatwave as it's slashed to £68

Whilst we may have all been looking forward to the warmer weather, one thing we’re less thrilled about is how warm our homes get. As British homes are typically designed to retain heat, the hot summer months and mini heatwaves can often leave them feeling stuffy and too hot to relax in.

A fan is of course the best way to help keep the air cool and circulating around the house, and Amazon shoppers think they’ve found the best one to shop that’s affordable, works well and is, according to them, “better than Dyson.” The is usually priced at £79.99, but it’s currently on sale with 15% off, slashing the price to £67.99.

The comes in both black and white colourways, with the black available at the reduced price whilst the white one is still full price at £79.99. One of the biggest draws of the fan is that it’s almost silent, operating at just 28 decibels, which means you can have it running without interrupting your sleep or drowning out the TV.

It also has an automatic switch off as well as an eight hour timer that’s ideal for using overnight, and when used in sleep mode it automatically mutes to prevent disrupted sleep. The LED display also automatically switches off, keeping your room cool and dark – ideal for sleeping during the heat.

You can choose from four different modes – normal, natural, sleep, and auto – and there are also four speed settings to pick from which range from a gentle breeze to a strong blow. The also comes with a remote control so you can operate it from wherever you are in the room.

To make sure all of your room remains cool, the has a 90° oscillation to cover more areas, and cools the air at a rate of up to 25 feet per second. It measures 36 inches high, so the cool air will fill the room and reach you even whilst sitting or lying in bed.

Amazon shoppers have been thrilled with their purchase, with one writing: “I purchased 2 of these, my son has the gas boiler in his room and gets very hot, he did have a Dyson but this works much better, I have one due to menopause, I love the remote because I can turn it off and on depending how hot I feel.”

Another agreed: “Great fan. and very easy to use. Best fan ever, so much better than the Dysons!”

Some found it was not as quiet as they’d hoped, with one saying: “I’ve only given 3 stars for now, only just taken it out of box to try it, working but definitely not quiet so why say it is? I’ve a slight headache already!”

Others however disagreed, with another reviewer writing: “Bought this fan last year and honestly one of the best thing I’ve ever purchased. It’s rather than just circulating the hot air. The different modes are really helpful ( sleep mode is so silent and perfect for me, I wake up to any noise). My whole family have bought one, would 10/10 recommend!”

Another said: “It’s wonderful, practical, looks like a small juke box, classy and had no issues with its functionality. Much more economical than the premium brands like Dyson but does the same job if not better.”

If you do want to add a Dyson fan to your home, however, now is the perfect time as the is currently on sale. Usually priced at £349.99, it’s now been reduced to £269.99, saving you £80 and giving you the most budget-friendly way to get your hands on a Dyson fan.
