Shoppers say 'game-changer' misting fan is ideal for 'allergies and hay fever sufferers'
The pollen count in the summer can be insufferable for people with hay fever and allergies. As well as taking medication, homes can invest in fans and misting options to clean the air and rid rooms of pollen.
Currently, Yimbly (a marketplace owned by The Mirror's parent company, Reach Plc) is offering customers a discount code, which reduces the price of a HOMCOM Misting Fan from £84.99, down to £76.50.
To use, simply add the discount code SUMMERDAYS10 at checkout for 10% off. The code is valid for use until the end of August. For comparison, the same fan can be bought on Amazon for £84.99, and on Robert Dyas for £92.99.

The oscillating tower fan has three speeds and spray levels, with options such as normal, natural, or sleep mode to choose from. Its 'ultrasonic atomization technology' works to evaporate heat, while the water spray function cools and cleans the air.
For smaller options, Amazon sells a handheld mister fan for £15.29 (usually £17.99). The portable airer has a mini water tank inside the handle and is rechargeable. It is ideal for taking to work, family/friends days out or even on holiday.
At the top end of the market is Shark's FlexBreeze Pro Mist Indoor & Outdoor Fan, which is currently on sale for £219.99, usually £249.99. The device has a range of up to 20 meters, with both mist and dry mode functions.
Prospective buyers of the HOMCOM Spray Misting Fan can find reviews and ratings of the device on Amazon. One user described it as a 'brilliant fan', before adding: "I suffer from hay fever and allergies and this fan has been a game changer.
"The mist catches all the particles and the air is much cleaner and fresher. Would recommend to anyone with health issues and remote makes it easy to use."
Another customer said: "Fantastic item, does the job. Love the misting function, I might purchase another for downstairs."
One Amazon buyer was not as pleased, saying: "The plastic strip that secures the front and rear fan grille is difficult to fit, also the securing hardware was missing. The mist generated is small, far smaller than the advertisement and does not cool any more than a conventional fan of a similar size."
An additional person wrote: "It was easy to move around and brilliant at keeping you cool." A fifth buyer concludes: "Excellent product. Does what it says, would recommend this."
Meanwhile, customers new to Yimbly can find reviews and ratings of its general customer service and quality on Trustpilot. One person said: "Excellent prices, quick delivery. I have never bought from here before, but I would definitely buy from here again."
However, some shoppers noted delivery had been 'slow. With one person stating: "Easy ordering but slow on delivery, hence 4 stars. All round well worth recommending."
While another reviewer concluded: "Excellent product, easy to put together, and customer service was amazing."

Heartbreak for Jeff Bezos as his mother Jackie dies aged 78 following dementia battle just weeks after Venice wedding
Jackie was remembered for her 'grit and determination, kindness and service to others' BEZOS HEARTBREAK Heartbreak for Jeff Bezos as his mother Jackie dies aged 78 following dementia battle just weeks after Venice wedding Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JEFF Bezos is mourning the loss of his mother, Jacklyn 'Jackie' Bezos, who has died at the age of 78. The Bezos Family Foundation announced the news, revealing she passed away peacefully at her Miami home today. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos poses on the red carpet with his parents Mike and Jackie in 2016 Credit: AFP 2 Jackie Bezos has died at the age of 78 Credit: Getty While no cause of death was given, the Foundation said she was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia in 2020. In an emotional post, Jeff reflected on how his mom's life as an adult began early, becoming a mother at just 17. He said she 'pounced on the job of loving me with ferocity,' later bringing his stepfather Mike into the family and expanding her love to his siblings Christina and Mark. Bezos said her 'list of people to love never stopped growing' and that she 'always gave so much more than she ever asked for.' He shared that after a long battle with Lewy Body Dementia, Jackie died surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and Mike. 'I know she felt our love in those final moments. We were all so lucky to be in her life,' he wrote, adding: 'I hold her safe in my heart forever… I love you, mom.' In a heartfelt tribute, the Foundation described Jackie as 'the true meaning of grit and determination, kindness and service to others' — values she passed on to her children and grandchildren. It praised her husband, Mike Bezos, for staying by her side 'at every step' of her illness and thanked the healthcare team who cared for her. Born December 29, 1946, in Washington, D.C., Jackie had Jeff at 17 with her first husband, Ted Jorgensen, before the couple split when Jeff was a toddler. She later married Cuban immigrant Miguel 'Mike' Bezos in 1968 — a lifelong partnership that lasted nearly six decades. In 1995, the couple famously invested just under $250,000 into Jeff's then-new venture, Amazon. A devoted mother to Jeff, Christina, and Mark, Jackie juggled work, night school, and family life — making countless trips to Radio Shack for Jeff, supervising cheerleading practice for Christina, and hauling drums in the family station wagon for Mark. She later earned her psychology degree at 45, proving, as the Foundation put it, 'it's never too late to follow your dreams.' In 2000, she and Mike founded the Bezos Family Foundation, spearheading initiatives such as Vroom, which supports early childhood development, and the Bezos Scholars Program for students in the US and Africa. She also played a major role in funding groundbreaking cancer research at Seattle's Fred Hutch Cancer Center. Her greatest joy, however, was family — particularly her 11 grandchildren, for whom she created 'Camp Marmie,' a summer tradition of adventures, problem-solving, and laughter. Jeff's wife, Lauren Sánchez, re-shared the tribute on Instagram Stories with a broken heart emoji. Jackie is survived by Mike, her children Jeff, Christina, and Mark, 11 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. The family is asking people to honor her memory by supporting a meaningful nonprofit or performing a simple act of kindness. More to follow...

Braun shaver that shoppers say 'shaves as close as a wet shave' £260 off on Amazon
The Braun Series 9 PRO+ is a top-tier wet and dry foil shaver, now £239.99 on Amazon, offering a close, comfortable shave Electric shavers have evolved to offer impressive performance, comfort, and convenience, making them a go-to choice for many men. The Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Shaver sits at the top of the brand's line-up, aiming to deliver a close shave without sacrificing skin comfort. Currently available on Amazon for £239.99, down 52% from its regular £499.99 price, this premium wet and dry foil razor is finished in sleek black and silver. It's built in Germany from high-quality materials and designed to last for years. Featuring 5+1 perfectly synchronised shaving elements, Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Shaver is made to gently cut even the toughest beards in every stroke. The Ultra Thin Precision Blades claim to offer more efficient shaving than any previous Series 9 model, while protecting the skin from irritation. Its Pro SensoAdapt technology analyses beard density 300 times per second, automatically adjusting power to ensure maximum efficiency, and the 40° ultra-adaptive shaving head is designed to maintain skin contact even in awkward areas like under the chin and along the neck. Waterproof and suitable for both wet and dry use, it offers up to 60 minutes of cordless shaving on a full charge. There are other premium options worth considering. The Philips Shaver Series 9000 Wet & Dry with SkinIQ is available for £221.99, down from £549.99, with a 4.4-star rating from more than 2,000 reviews. The Panasonic Series 900, priced at £229.99, also competes strongly with its focus on precision and power. But for those specifically after Braun's flagship model, the Series 9 PRO+ remains one of the most talked-about shavers in its category. Reviews are mixed, though many owners are impressed. One buyer who switched from a rival brand said, 'The Braun is far superior, it gives a really close shave, is quiet, and the battery lasts well before recharging. It's quite expensive but worth the cost.' Another praised its performance, calling it 'the best electric shaver I have had… well worth the money and I would buy again without hesitation.'

A third commented that it 'really does shave as close as a wet shave,' adding that the higher price balances out when compared to the ongoing cost of replacement blades or cartridges. However, not everyone has been convinced it justifies the price. One reviewer said, 'Yes it's good, but not good enough for any beard more than 3 days old… it leaves a few hairs behind no matter how much you try. Good shaver, but not worth the price.' Another simply noted, 'Although it works, it's not a match for a wet shave with a razor,' expressing disappointment given the premium cost. For those who value a blend of high-end technology, premium build quality, and a close, comfortable shave, the Braun Series 9 PRO+ remains a compelling option, especially at its current discounted price. You can find it HERE.
