Keep your space cool and get ready for the warmer weather with Aldi's Ambiano Air Cooler for just £39.99.
Whether you're tossing and turning trying to sleep at night or constantly fanning yourself while watching TV, this bargain buy may be for you.
Suitable for rooms up to 108 square feet, this nifty machine is equipped with three speed levels with a water tank capacity of 5.5 litres.
It also features a swish touch panel and LED display but also provides a screen-off function.
It's easy to move around your home too with carrying handles on the side and four wheels for easy transportation.
Also included is a 12-hour timer, so you don't leave it on constantly and waste electricity.
Other features include automatic air swing and overheat protection all for an affordable price.
The supermarket says the device 'uses evaporative cooling technology for an affordable solution to chilling out.'
It works by drawing in hot air, and then forcing it through wet pads to cool it as it evaporates.
The cooled air is then released into the room using a fan inside.

Released air contains moisture and can increase the humidity of the room, which can be refreshing on a dry day.
All you need is to add water to the back and you're ready to go.
Ready to fly off the store's shelves once again, this air cooler comes in nearly £300 cheaper than Curry's model.
While the product cools a larger area and has a 24-hour timer, you still need to stick a hose out of the window rather than just add water to the back.
That being said, the Curry's version has received good reviews but comes in at £299.99.
Luckily, the Ambiano Air Cooler isn't the only fan Aldi are selling.
The budget retailer recently brought back its Ambiano Bladeless Fan just in time for summer and its available now.
Part of Aldi's Specialbuys, the chic Design Fan also comes in at £39.99 making it much easier on the bank balance than rivals.
Also hitting the Specialbuys shelves this week are £3.99 garden must-haves and £4 Crocs dupes.
The popular discount chain has revealed 36 garden essential products - and crocs dupes to wear while you're gardening.
Prices start at just £1.99 and go up to £19.99, with several top-shelf items for a fraction of the cost you'd pay at big-name stores.
That includes Mini Pruning Shears, scanning at Aldi for just £3.99.
Shoppers can also snap up sleeker items like Solar Marrakesh Crook Lanterns for £12.99 and Solar Plastic Spotlights for £3.99.
To find your nearest Aldi, you can go to its website and use the Store Finder tool.
When's the best time to shop at Aldi?
Whether you're tossing and turning trying to sleep at night or constantly fanning yourself while watching TV, this buy may be for you.
For reduced items - when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi's 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found - if you're quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: "All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates."
That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.
Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store's times by using the supermarket's online shop finder tool.
For Specialbuys - Thursdays and Sundays
Specialbuys are Aldi's weekly collection of items that it doesn't normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store's opening time.
Remember: once they're gone, they're gone, so if there's something you really want, visit as early as possible.

Aldi launches Father's Day emergency gift box service
The supermarket chain has created an 'SOS Service' to help shoppers who have forgotten or don't have time to buy a gift for the big day. They are offering a limited number of exclusive 'Aldi SOS' gift boxes, designed to 'knock the socks off' any father or fatherly figure. These gift boxes will include a card to personalise, a bar of Aldi's Moser Roth Chocolate, and a pair of Aldi-themed socks. How to get the Aldi emergency Father's Day gift box To be in with a chance of receiving a gift box, shoppers simply need to email their name and email address to SOSService@ Boxes will be sent out on a first-come, first-served basis, so shoppers are encouraged to act quickly. People will have until Thursday, June 12, to apply for a box, and winners will be contacted on or before Thursday to provide their delivery address. Full terms and conditions for this can be found on the Aldi website here. Julie Ashfield, Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, said: 'We know how much occasions like Father's Day mean to our shoppers, and we're committed to offering quality gifts at affordable prices. 'Our SOS Service means our customers can celebrate their loved ones even if they're shopping last minute, helping to make Father's Day special for everyone.' Is Father's Day the same in the UK and the USA? The date for Father's Day in the UK and the USA is always the same, taking place on the third Sunday in June. For 2025, this means it will fall on Sunday, June 15 and in 2026 it will be on Sunday, June 21. This is different to Mother's Day, which has two separate dates in the UK and the USA. Mother's Day in the UK is marked on the fourth Sunday of Lent, while Mother's Day in the United States is not associated with any religious background. Instead, it came into being in 1914, after a campaign was launched by Anna Jarvis, an American woman whose mother died in May. The Economic Times reports that President Woodrow Wilson established that it would take place on the second Sunday of May. Recommended reading: Is there an international Father's Day? While Father's Day is celebrated around the world, there isn't a set date that every country follows. Countries such as the UK, USA, Canada, France, Mexico, India and South Africa celebrate it on the third Sunday in June. Meanwhile, Brazil celebrates it on the second Sunday in August, and Australia and New Zealand do so on the first Sunday of September.

Rachel Reeves slashing spending by £5bn in ‘austerity 2.0'
Chancellor Rachel Reeves is set to announce Labour's spending plans on Wednesday, but analysis suggests she will need to make £5bn in cuts by 2028/29. The cuts are expected across unprotected departments like housing, policing, and local government, excluding NHS England, core schools budget, and defence, with Labour critics dubbing the plans 'austerity 2.0'. The Home Office is expected to bear the brunt of spending cuts, potentially impacting police numbers despite pledges to cut crime. The analysis, commissioned by the Lib Dems, assumes Reeves will not hike taxes and was made before committing £1.25bn to restore winter fuel payments to pensioners. Lib Dems criticised the expected cuts, urging the Labour government to boost growth and avoid spending shortfalls, suggesting a UK- EU Customs Union to boost the economy.

Reeves says spending review will be about ‘making working people better off'
Rachel Reeves has acknowledged that not enough people are feeling the progress Labour has made and said her spending review will be about 'making working people better off'. The Chancellor is expected to announce funding increases for the NHS, schools and defence along with a number of infrastructure projects on Wednesday, as she shares out some £113 billion freed up by looser borrowing rules. But other areas could face cuts as she seeks to balance manifesto commitments with more recent pledges, such as a hike in defence spending, while meeting her fiscal rules that promise to match day-to-day spending with revenues. Sir Keir Starmer meanwhile rejected the idea that squeezed police budgets could make communities less safe. The Prime Minister also said that the decision to reinstate most winter fuel payments was not a response to the backlash against the policy. The Chancellor has committed £16.7 billion to nuclear power projects, including £14.2 billion of investment to build the new Sizewell C nuclear plant in Suffolk. Ms Reeves said the Government was 'making Labour choices' and 'making progress' in an address to the GMB Union Congress in Brighton on Tuesday. She said: 'I know that not enough working people are yet feeling that progress, and that's what tomorrow's spending review is all about – making working people better off, investing in our security, investing in our health, investing in our economy. 'This Government is going for growth because that is the best way to create jobs, boost wages, lift people out of poverty, and sustainably fund our schools and our hospitals and all the public services we rely on. 'And we're doing things differently, because unlike the Tories, I don't think that the only good thing that a government can do is get out of the way.' Sir Keir was asked about reports that Home Secretary Yvette Cooper was among those concerned that the financial settlement for police in the spending review could lead to crimes not being investigated. 'No, we will be more safe,' he told GB News. The Prime Minister also rejected the idea that he had reversed course on winter fuel payments amid political pressure. 'We had to take difficult decisions in the budget; the economy was broken,' he told Jeremy Vine on BBC Radio 2. But he cited recent growth figures and falling interest rates as proof that 'the economy has stabilised'. Ms Reeves is under pressure to reverse course on cuts to benefits after she confirmed a U-turn on winter fuel payments that will see them restored to pensioners with an income of less than £35,000-a-year. She stood firm on welfare reforms on Tuesday as a union representative urged her to 'think again' on the cuts. The Chancellor said the current system is 'not sustainable' and that reforms aimed to get those who can work back into work and help 'fulfil the ambitions of people with disabilities themselves to get back into work'. The reforms include plans to tighten the eligibility criteria for personal independence payments, known as Pip.
