‘Super effective' hands-free portable neck fan keeps you cool on your commute
Amazon has slashed 17% off the 'super effective' hands-free neck fan thats a godsend for keeping you cool and comfortable whilst working or commuting in the heatwave
From sweating on your commute to overheating at your desk, the heatwave can be a nightmare to navigate for workers. Handheld fans are great for a quick fix but leave you with just one hand free, whilst portable fans can be a pain to carry around with you.
So when we spotted the Kouric Neck Fan with Cooling Plate on Amazon, we knew it was an instant must-have for working in the summer. The clever neck fan blasts cool air around your face, neck and head without needing to constantly hold anything up, leaving you with both hands free to use your phone, carry your bags or even steady yourself on your commute.
Ordinarily priced at £35.98, it's also currently on sale with 17% off, slashing the price to £29.98, making now the perfect time to get your hands on it. Plus Amazon Prime members can get it delivered the next day, so you don't need to spend another moment overheating on the train.
There are some more budget-friendly options to pick from too if you'd rather. At Boots you can pick up the Menopause & Me Wearable Neck Fan priced at £15.99, or Argos has the £15 Menkind BeCool Bladeless Neck Fan in Black.
The Kouric Neck Fan with Cooling Plate simply sits around the back of your neck, kind of how a travel pillow would, and has small fans built in all the way around it. These blast cool air directly onto your neck and face, with three different cooling temperatures to choose from which can cool you down to as low as 15 degrees, and there are five different speed settings too.
It's fully portable so you can wear it on public transport, sitting at your desk, even walking around on holiday or at somewhere like Disneyland. It also reaches all the way around your face and neck so you get cool air from all angles, with 12 different colourways to choose from.
There's an LED display on the Kouric Neck Fan with Cooling Plate too so you can keep an eye on things like battery levels and what settings you're on. It has a fast-charging USB charging port so you can have it ready to go in no time, and has between three and 19.5 hours battery life depending on which settings you're using.
It's also got great reviews from Amazon shoppers too, with one saying: 'Mums menopause gift, my mum has been getting it really tough with hot flushes during menopause. I had googled to see what I could do to help her and neck fans was actually recommended. I can confirm she has been very happy and uses it while working from home when she feels one coming on. It's also great to use in general in the heat wave we had recently.'
Another wrote: 'I was just looking for a neck fan and didn't even know what a cooling plate was, its super effective at cooling me down. Cannit wait to take this on holiday. Hands free comfort. Saves carrying a mini fan around.'
Some were less impressed, with one saying: 'It does as it says on the box, and does it well. Generates much cold air. Battery life is dependent on which settings you use.Unfortunately,I found it a bit bulky and uncomfortable to wear. Takes around 3 hours to recharge.'
Another simply said: 'Not silent.' However others loved it, writing: 'We got one of the cheap neck fans without the cooling plate, but this makes such a real difference. We grabbed another after testing our first.'

QVC slashes Ninja's 'perfect' pizza oven by £110 beating Amazon for BBQ season
As the summer season draws near, garden parties and outdoor dinners become the order of the day. Enjoying the sunshine with delectable food in the company of friends and family is a cherished tradition. One essential that most people crave during this time is pizza, but ordering takeaway for the whole family can be quite costly. This is why pizza ovens are fast becoming a must-have item in gardens and homes. However, finding the right one that won't empty your wallet can be a challenge. Fortunately, shoppers are in luck as they can now purchase the Ninja Artisan Pizza Oven with Cover from QVC for a discounted price of £219.95, down from its original price of £324.98. This deal is even cheaper than what's offered on the Ninja website (£229.99) and Amazon (£229). Moreover, new QVC shoppers can enjoy an extra £5 off with the code FIVE4U, bringing the total cost down to £214.95. The Ninja pizza oven allows shoppers to whip up delicious 12-inch pizzas in just a matter of minutes. It's electric, so there's no need for flames or gas - simply plug it in and start cooking. With five pizza settings such as Thin Crust, New York and Deep Dish, shoppers can perfect their favourite style every time. The package even includes a pizza peel, stone, and a cover to keep it safe outdoors, reports the Mirror. But this oven isn't just for pizza, as shoppers can also use it to bake bread, air fry meals, and prove dough - all in the great outdoors. It heats up to 370 degrees and can accommodate a full meal, like chicken wings or chips. There's even a window so customers can watch their food as it cooks. Its simple controls make it easy to use and it's ideal for gardens, patios or balconies. For those in the market for a pizza oven, but not quite sold on what's offered, there's the Ooni Koda 12 Gas-Powered Pizza Oven at Argos for £299, featuring instant gas ignition, reaching cooking temperatures in 15 minutes, and capable of blasting pizzas to perfection in just 60 seconds with an impressive 500 degrees. Alternatively, bargain hunters can consider the Outdoor Pizza Oven from Vonhaus, priced at £129.99, which is portable, whips up 12-inch pizzas, hits the mark with temperatures up to 350 degrees within 15 minutes, and also doubles as a smoker for meats, fish, or veggies. On the other hand, the ninja pizza oven from QVC has garnered a sterling 4.7 out of 5 star rating from users. Feedback includes rave reviews such as: "So quick and easy and the pizzas were lovely. Perfectly cooked everytime Also tried the air fryer function and it was to the usual NINJA standard too." Further praise comes from a satisfied customer who expressed: "Very impressed, exceeded expectations. Big enough for a 12 inch pizza but small enough to easily move. The oven heats up fairly quickly, but then retains the heat if making several pizzas." An additional happy buyer remarked: "Exactly as expected. Feels solid, makes you feel confident it can produce the desired heat, safely and with ease!". However, some customers did voice concerns, with one noting: "One thing I would say is that the pizza was a bit too dark for me and I've heard others say the same." Another customer was full of praise, remarking: "Amazing! Made gluten free from frozen bases and normal ones from fresh bases and they were the best pizzas we have had in a long time! Toppings - less is more for sure! Really impressed - 3 pizzas in under 15 mins!".

5 fans to beat the heat from Amazon, Shark, Dyson and more
As the UK sizzles in the first heatwave of 2025, we've found a selection of fans to keep Brits cool throughout the summer The UK is experiencing its first heatwave of 2025, with temperatures set to exceed 30C for the second consecutive day on Friday (June 20). Some parts of the country are expected to reach 32C, with the warm weather continuing well into next week. With this in mind, we've been scouring the web to find a selection of fans ideal for beating the heat this summer and beyond. There's deals and devices from Amazon, Shark, Dyson and more, with prices to suit a range of budgets. There's a choice of bladeless, standing and desktop fans, as well as one model allowing shoppers to keep comfortable both indoors and outdoors. So read on for a selection of our favourite cooling fans to help beat the heat. Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist – £219 (was £249.99) Amazon has just reduced the Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist to its cheapest price ever, beating Shark 's own £219.99 price tag. Serving as a standing or desk fan, this model has five fan speeds and two SmartBreeze modes said to simulate natural wind patterns. But what sets it apart from its rival is the MistPro feature, which uses chilled water to spray a light, cool mist outdoors that Shark says can lower temperatures by up to 6°C. Of the FlexBreeze, one five-star review says: 'A good, powerful fan providing a lovely breeze to keep things cool in the conservatory when the sun is out. 'The water mist is strictly for outdoors as the spray does generate quite a lot of large droplets that gather on the base plate and will also moisten any items nearby. The mist is perfect for those summer barbecues, keeping the chef nice and cool.' However, the same buyer added: 'Only drawbacks would have been nice to have more angle on the oscillation and the ability to adjust the height and not just the angle of the fan.' Amazon has also reduced the price of the Shark FlexBreeze TableMate (£99) and the Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo (£99.99). JYMIPA Standing Fan – £109.99 The JYMIPA Standing Fan from Amazon has yet to receive a single mixed or negative review, with its lowest rating being four stars. It's said to be 'whisper quiet' and can deliver 'powerful' wind speeds of 21 ft/s that can reach up to 29 feet, enabling it to cool even larger spaces with its 90° horizontal oscillation and 80° vertical tilt. One user says: 'Just right for keeping the bedroom comfy without noise getting in the way. It's quiet even on higher speeds so it won't disturb sleep or focus. The airflow reaches nicely across the room, which feels surprisingly refreshing. A solid fan that stays cool and calm.' The fan's only four-star review says: 'Wish the height adjustment was telescopic instead of the cheap plastic pipes that have to be unscrewed. The mains lead could do with being longer.' Dyson Cool AM07 Tower Fan – £269.99 (was £349.99) Those looking to push the boat out can save £80 on the Dyson Cool AM07 Tower Fan, which is designed to cool larger spaces. It boasts 'powerful', long-range air projection and Dyson's Air Multiplier technology, which combines principles used in turbochargers and jet engines to amplify airflow up to 15 times. With this, the bladeless fan can project up to 500 litres of air per second, with its remote control offering total control of its 10 airflow settings. One five-star review says: 'Wish we had bought it sooner. Cool air and cool design. Very easy to assemble, three pieces just click together.' But this more mixed review says: 'The fan is very powerful, however, the LED light is too bright. I bought it for my bedroom and it lights the whole room up at night.' Dyson Cool AM07 Tower Fan – BUY HERE Honeywell TurboForce Power Fan – £23.19 (was £32.49) The Honeywell TurboForce Power Fan is currently the best-selling fan on Amazon, with more than 5,000 sold in the past month. With three speed settings and a 90° oscillating head, this compact fan is ideal for use on a table or desk, allowing users to stay comfortable while they work. It's designed to cool small to medium rooms and also comes with a handy wall mount. One five-star review says: 'This fan has been a lifesaver during warmer days and is surprisingly powerful for its size. It gives off a strong, steady breeze and really helps cool down the room quickly. 'I love that it's compact enough to fit on a table or shelf, but still has the power of a much larger fan. It's also not too noisy, which makes it perfect for using in the bedroom or while working.' It may not suit everyone though, as this buyer says: 'It's effective enough if you're one person sitting in one place but there's no oscillation so it's no good if you want to use it with others. Not as quiet as I'd expected either.' Dunelm Floor Fan – £50 This 16' Floor Fan from Dunelm has a 'powerful' 100W motor that makes it ideal for cooling larger spaces. It has three speed settings and an adjustable tilting head, with buyers describing it as 'robust and effective'. There's also a slightly larger 18' model for £65, but of the 16' model, one reviewer said: 'Great fan with plenty of power behind it. Great for keeping us cool on hot days.' Another said: 'Extremely happy with my robust and effective fan, would most definitely buy again.' However, this buyer said: 'It's very powerful even on the lowest setting. It is loud though. Sounds more like an aeroplane than a fan. Wouldn't recommend if it's for the bedroom at night.'
