‘Sleek' and ‘powerful' Amazon fan slashed from £324.99 to £64.99 in huge 80% price drop

The Sun29-07-2025
The summer has been a scorcher so far, and with two months to go, it's never too late to invest in a good fan.
Amazon has cut the price of a bestselling model, reducing it from £324.99 to £64.99.
While a bit of hot weather doesn't go amiss, many UK homes aren't built to stay cool and air con is a rarity.
Whether you work from home, want to relax without overheating or struggle to sleep in the heat, an efficient fan is a smart investment.
The Pureborne 36" Smart Tower Fan is now £64.99, and while Amazon is never lacking in deals, it's rare to see a discount as big as 80%.
The slim design of a tower fan is ideal if you don't want to take up too much floor space, and it also means the airflow reaches a higher range so you can stay cool in bed or on the sofa.
This one's 91cm tall, and has four speeds and four modes - 'normal' for a powerful airflow, 'natural' replicating an outdoor breeze, 'sleep' for during the night and 'auto'.
The 1-12 hour timer is handy if you want to set intervals for while you sleep, or you can set it to come on and cool down the room before you arrive home.
Another useful feature is the app connection - you can connect the fan to your phone to control it remotely, and it can also be connected to Alexa and Google for voice activation.
The fan is designed to be quiet too, so you can minimise disturbance while you're working or doing chores around the house.
With a perfect five-star rating so far, the Amazon fan is racking up customer reviews, and has made it onto the bestsellers list.
One shopper said: ''This Pureborne tower fan is sleek and super quiet, perfect for bedrooms or offices.''
''The remote and app control make it super convenient to adjust settings from anywhere.''
''Great airflow and easy to use!''
Another commented: ''Quiet, Powerful, and Smart!''
While a third praised the fan, adding: ''This fan is a fantastic space saver!''
''Not only does it save space but it is easy to use and helps to keep my home office cool.''
Alternatively, if your sleep's being affected by the heatwaves, you could see a big difference by trying out one of the best cooling pillows.

Stylish garden furniture that is easy to store and 'looks amazing' now reduced by 30%

If space is at a premium in a garden and storage is an issue too, then garden furniture that is thoughtfully designed and can be folded to be packed away as compact as possible is very appealing. But the Compact Wooden Folding Dining Set, now reduced by 30% from £199 to £139.30 by Dunelm is not just practical, it's pretty too, with one happy buyer stating: "Really pleased with this set of table and chairs, looks amazing on my patio." The dining set has four folding chairs and the table folds up too, taking up so little space when it is not needed, and the impressive design doesn't stop there, with one buyer explaining: "Easy to stack away and love the table wheels, means I can move it without asking for help." Constructed from eucalyptus wood, the Compact Wooden Folding Dining Set comes with four folding chairs and a folding table, can be wiped cleaned with a damp cloth and is described by Dunelm as arriving at a home 'part-assembled'. Alternatives to the Compact Wooden Folding Dining Set are the Habitat Hector 4 Seater Rattan Effect Patio Set now half price to £150.00 in the company's clearance sale and the CASARIA® Sydney Wooden Garden Dining Table and Chairs Set that seats four and also folds away but boasts 'made with materials from well-managed forests, recycled materials and/or other controlled wood sources' now reduced by 15% to £174 from Amazon. Back to Dunelm and the complements keep coming for their Compact Wooden Folding Dining Set, with one reviewer saying: "A super patio set and just the right size, chairs are comfortable and the table is strong and sturdy and a lovely shade of wood, have had lots of compliments from my family and friends on it." The value for money was also a feature of the purchase that reviewers mentioned, with one saying: "Excellent value quality hard wood absolute bargain at half price!!!" and another adding: "Great quality and good value. Great set and very happy with purchase. Perfect for small garden." The recurring more negative feedback for the set was its assembly - many buyers say it is easy to put together but some point out that the instructions are poor but the furniture is worth the effort for most. One customer says: "Very nice looking set but the instructions for the table assembly are really unhelpful and could be better. However we love the size and the chairs are so comfortable you don't even need cushions apart from decorative obvs .Definitely recommend but you need patience to put the table together."

Apple and Google found to have breached Australia's competition laws in landmark court case

Tech giants Apple and Google have been found to have engaged in anti-competitive conduct, paving the way for a payout that could be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Epic Games, the developer of popular online game Fortnite, sued the two tech giants in the Federal Court, claiming they engaged in anti-competitive and unconscionable conduct against those developing apps distributed through iOS and Android devices. The lawsuit was launched after Epic was booted from Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store after attempting to introduce its own payment system into Fortnite games in August 2020. Justice Jonathan Beach on Tuesday found Apple and Google had breached Australia's competition laws, upholding key elements of Epic's case. Apple had a 'substantial degree of market power' because of the restrictions placed on in-app payment systems and the distribution of iOS compatible apps, he said. Google also had a significant degree of market power and was the predominant supplier of Android apps, the court was told. The tech companies' dominance had the effect of substantially lessening competition and breached Australia's competition laws, Justice Beach found. However, he rejected Epic's argument Apple had engaged in unconscionable conduct. Justice Beach also found in favour of a class action lawsuit comprising Australian developers and gamers who claimed Apple and Google's monopolistic practices led to inflated prices. The app developers had to pay higher commissions than they otherwise would have if there was more competition in the market Lawyers for the plaintiffs welcomed the result as a significant win for consumer rights and digital fairness that could have global implications for how digital platforms operate. 'This judgment is a turning point,' said Kimi Nishimura from Maurice Blackburn Lawyers. 'It sends a clear message that even the most powerful corporations must play by the rules and respect the rights of consumers and developers alike.' The lawyers said the decision could result in 'one of the largest class action payouts in Australian legal history with potential compensation of several hundreds of millions of dollars to come from two global corporate Goliaths'. The parties have been given time to consider the 2000-page judgment and will return to the Federal Court at a later date to determine compensation and directives aimed at increasing transparency. A Google spokesperson said the company disagreed with the court's characterisation of its billing policies and practices and would review the full decision. The Epic Games Store and Fortnite will come to iOS in Australia! An Australian court just found that Apple and Google abuse their control over app distribution and in-app payments to limit competition. There are 2,000+ pages of findings that we'll need to dig into to fully... - Epic Games Newsroom (@EpicNewsroom) August 12, 2025 Apple welcomed the 'rejection of some of Epic's claims, however, we strongly disagree with the court's ruling on others.' Epic Games took to social media to herald the result and say Fortnite would return to iOS soon. 'A federal judge just found that Apple and Google both engaged in anti-competitive conduct,' the company wrote. 'Another HUGE Win for Epic Games!' Epic won a separate US case against Google in 2023 after a jury found it had engaged in anti-trust conduct through the Google Play Store. It was less successful in its case against Apple, although the court found the tech giant had engaged in anti-competitive conduct. Apple has also been forced to implement changes to its App Store in Europe, including allowing third-party payment systems.
