Flash sale axes 'small and powerful' fan that's 'better than Dyson' to under £23
Whilst summer might be drawing to a close, scorching temperatures are still gripping Britain with some areas seeing the mercury soar above 30C this past week - and there's more sweltering heat on the way. Perfect timing then for Amazon to slash the price of a top-rated cooling device by 29%.
The Honeywell Turboforce Power Fan, normally priced at £32.49, has been reduced to £22.99. The gadget, which boasts a stellar 4.5-star rating, has been hailed as "superior" to Dyson and "powerful" despite its compact design, reports the Express.
Manchester Evening News journalist Bethan Shufflebotham put the fan through its paces. She revealed: "Despite its compact size of no more than 30cm in height or width, this Honeywell fan packs a punch. I've never felt the need to try a Dyson fan, as this device does an excellent job of keeping me cool during the summer months while working from home. It even outperforms the £20 tower fan I bought from Aldi in 2022."
"The fan arrives fully assembled, making setup a breeze," Bethan noted. It features a three-metre cable and can tilt by 90 degrees. "Its sleek and minimalist design is far from an eyesore, and its lightweight nature allows for easy room-to-room movement," Bethan enthused. "Given its price, I'd recommend getting two - one for upstairs and one for downstairs."
This fan boasts three speed settings and can be wall-mounted or used as a desk fan. Despite its power, Bethan was particularly impressed with its quiet operation.
She noted: "The slowest speed is almost silent, making it perfect for work calls during the day, watching films or catching up on Love Island, and it doesn't disturb my sleep when used overnight.
"The medium speed setting produces a gentle hum, delivering more of a breeze, but still, there's no need to reach for the volume button on the telly remote. The highest setting is noisier than the others, but no noisier than other fans we've tested over the years, and it's more than worth it for the performance."
The fan has earned a top-notch customer satisfaction rating of five stars out of five on Amazon. One satisfied shopper said: "Extremely quiet, even on full power. Very strong breeze, a lot better than my Dyson hot and cold fan. Cannot fault this."
Another added: " This fan is an absolute powerhouse. I have no clue as to how it can be so powerful for its size, but fair play to Honeywell. It's easily at least 10 times more powerful than the Dyson fan (a really bad purchase) we also have."
However, one user was not impressed with the design of the settings switch, stating: "It's a decent enough fan in terms of airflow. The main problem is that the switch is in an awkward spot to turn on and off."
The cooling device is available for next-day delivery, and Prime members won't face any delivery charges. But if you want to grab this fan at it's newly reduced rate, you'll want to act fast as there's now telling how long this sale will last.
Meanwhile, if you'd rather shop the real deal, you can find the Dyson Cool CF1 desk fan for £249.99 at Dyson's own store, or check out this Igenix 12" Desk Fan which is selling for £25 at Dunelm.

Best Boots deals to expect for Black Friday 2025
The Boots Black Friday sale is one of the best opportunities to grab yourself a saving across beauty, healthcare, baby and tech. Whether you're preparing for cold and flu season (please, no) or refreshing your skincare line-up, the November sales event will bring discounts aplenty – and yes, all your favourite brands will be featured. Be it Dyson, Chanel, Medela or Philips, the retailer's wide-range of products has something to suit everyone. I'm not talking measly 10 per cent reductions or stingy sample sachets with purchase either – Boots' Black Friday offering is one of the best in the business and, in 2024, I saw promotions on everything from CeraVe to Garmin. Of course, Black Friday isn't the retailer's only sales event – the big Boots sale is a January staple. However, as someone who's worked the deals circuit for more than five years, I'd argue the discounts are even more lucrative come November with offers on everything from smartwatches to Dyson hair tools (at all-time low prices). Scroll on for all the details of this year's event, plus enticing reductions to shop now. When is Black Friday 2025? As usual, Black Friday – which started in the US – falls on the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year, that's Friday 28 November. The sales event will continue through the weekend until Cyber Monday, on Monday 1 December. While the main (and biggest) Boots deals will likely drop over this weekend, plenty of brands launch a handful of early Black Friday promotions in the weeks leading up to it. And, don't worry, I'm keeping my eyes peeled for the first signs of those pre-Black Friday Boots deals, so watch this space. What Boots deals can I expect for Black Friday 2025? Typically, Boots Black Friday deals span the full selection of brands on-site and, last year, I saw a mixture of high-end and affordable items. For the luxury make-up lovers, there were deals on Nars foundations and Bobbi Brown primers, meanwhile haircare fanatics were treated to Cloud Nine hair dryers and the Dyson airstrait straighteners. Grooming enthusiasts were in luck, too, with reductions across Braun and Philips electric shavers and trimmers, not to mention epilators and ipl devices for more long-term hair removal. In 2025, I'm expecting much of the same, along with a bunch of the new brands Boots has onboarded over the past year. Specifically, in the realms of Korean skincare. Having covered Black Friday since 2020, Lucy Smith has seen many a Boots sales event. She's familiar with its standout products, having reviewed each of the retailer's beauty boxes and advent calendars, and knows the brands that buyers flock to time and again. In 2025, she's watched as the retailer has introduced a number of trending products, including Tir Tir's Korean cushion foundation and Biodance's overnight collagen face mask. As someone who writes about skincare, make-up, haircare and fragrance daily, she pays close attention to the average prices of popular products and can spot good (and bad) reductions with ease. So, you can browse below with peace of mind that all of her selections are well-informed and, largely, tried and tested by team IndyBest. A cult product in the anti-ageing sphere, it's no surprise that beauty expert Pippa Bailey found that her skin felt 'firmer along the jawline and around the mouth' after using Estee Lauder's advanced night repair serum for just a few days. Describing it as 'absolutely' worth the hype, owing to its ability to increase the skin's production of collagen, what better time than now – while there's 20 per cent off – to grab this complexion hero. Another beauty icon, Chanel's coco mademoiselle perfume is adored by women of all ages, myself included. Reviewing as part of a wider round-up of the best women's perfumes, I described how the fragrance is 'a perfect all-day scent' and wowed at its longevity from morning through night. For the those who enjoy a sugary quality to their whiffs, I found that 'its subtle sweetness layers beautifully with vanilla scents'. Plus, who can deny the luxe glamour of the bottle? Shop now while there's 20 per cent off. A product that changed the wet-to-dry styling game, Dyson's airstrait device went viral on TikTok after its 2024 launch – and it's no surprise, with IndyBest's global e-Commerce editor Eva Waite-Taylor praising it for helping to achieve a salon-quality blow dry in her review. Sign me up, especially with a whopping £100 discount.

Sodastream with lots of top flavours is 'favourite kitchen gadget' as it drops to £56
'We mostly use it for sparkling water, but it's saved us a fortune on fizzy drinks in general.' Everyone has a go-to fizzy drink that they enjoy from time to time. But many of us try to limit how often we buy them, as the cost can quickly pile up - and so can bottle after bottle of plastic around your home. Thankfully, there is a kitchen gadget on the market that will let households enjoy some tasty fizzy drinks while also saving themselves some extra money in the long run. The Sodastream is normally associated with turning still water into sparkling for those who prefer it. However, some people may not know that this device also comes with flavourings that will create a few popular fizzy drinks. For those who are intrigued, now is the best time to buy a Sodastream as Amazon has slashed the price of the Terra Black edition from £109.99 down to £55.99 in a limited time deal. Ideal for creating soft drinks while also reducing your carbon footprint, the Sodastream is easy to use and will provide tasty drinks in no time. Simply place the water bottle into the device and press the button as many times as you would like to get the best level of fizz. Terra Black Sodastream £109.99 £55.99 Amazon Buy Now Delivered with a gas cylinder that is easy to connect to the device, this is said to provide up to 60 litres of sparkling refreshments before it needs to be replaced. The Sodastream also comes with the added bonus of not needing to be plugged in, so it can be easily transported around your kitchen without any fuss. In terms of flavours, Amazon has slashed the price of six 440ml bottles of orange mix down from £29.94 to £25 and a pack of their own ginger ale down to £21.31. Shoppers can also get a multipack which includes Pepsi Max, Pepsi Max Cherry, Pepsi Max Lime and a 7UP Free for £19 (RRP £23.96). All of these bottles will provide up to 9L of juice. Alternatively, shoppers can buy the BIBO Sparkling Water Maker from Amazon for £54.99. Equipped with four fizz levels, shoppers will be able to customise their drink to perfection. The water bottle included with the device is also BPA-free and reusable. Over on Debenhams, shoppers can now buy the Geepas 900ML Sparkling Water Maker Soda Machine for the reduced price of £44.99 (RRP £66.99). This device claims to make perfect bubbles in just two to three seconds. However, it does not come with a CO2 cylinder. Back to the Sodastream, it currently had a 4.7 star rating on Amazon from over 2,300 customers, with over 1,000 people snapping up the device in the last month. One delighted shopper wrote: "Wasn't sure if we'd actually use this much, but now we're totally hooked. Super easy to set up — literally just click the gas canister in and you're good to go. The Terra version doesn't need to be plugged in, so it just lives on our kitchen counter without taking up too much space or needing a power point. "The fizz is decent too — you can control how fizzy you want it which is a nice touch. I usually go for two presses and it's perfect. We mostly use it for sparkling water, but it's saved us a fortune on fizzy drinks in general. Also feels a bit better than constantly buying plastic bottles." However, one shopper did complain about the delivery, writing: "It was easy to use as I took a look on YouTube for instructions. The Soda Stream instructions I had delivered was in 100% German. The box all in German. The product warnings on the bottle was in German. Got a bulk deal in German Soda Streams?" While another person wanted more variety in the flavours: "Only gripe is the lack of choice in terms of flavoured syrups. We don't really like Pepsi brand drinks and the own brand Sodastream tonic, ginger ale etc. are not great either. Would prefer Coke zero and a branded tonic e.g. Fevertree. Hope they expand the range at some point." Homewares deal of the week Switch up your bedroom's aesthetic and keep those summer vibes with one bedding set from Dunelm that is now 30 percent less. The Darla Floral Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set has been crafted from a soft cotton to keep cool amidst the current hot spell, with the pink colourway included in the offer. For shoppers looking for a single sized set, the pink Darla bedding is now £14 instead of £20. For a double the set retails for £16.80 (£24), meanwhile the king size is down to £21 (£30). The super king has also dropped from £34 to £23.80. The duvet comes with matching pillowcases to create a seamless design. For added versatility, this bedding set is also reversible so shoppers can instead choose to flip the set over and enjoy a calm design that resembles soft clouds. Dunelm shoppers have loved the Darla bedding set so much they can't stop gushing over it, as one said: "Really pretty bedding. Feels great in the bed. Washes well, easy to iron, and excellent quality." While another five-star reviewer added: "Lovely sage green fresh colour brightens the bedroom up for the summer. Washes good low spin as can crease but iron well." Get the popular Darla Floral Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set for 30 per cent less at Dunelm. Despite this, another five-star reviewer wrote: "Wish we had bought one of these earlier rather than buying the plastic bottles from the supermarket. It is very easy to use and it looks ok on the kitchen counter. "The gas cylinders are easy to fit and we are able to buy a replacement canister at Rymans in the town centre which works out cheaper. The fizz in the bottles lasts a few days before going flat. Excellent product." With a fifth shopper adding: "One of our favourite kitchen gadget purchases. Sleek and minimalist design. So easy to use. We have even taken it with us to cocktail parties as it's so easy to transport. Low maintenance and canisters last a while! This came with one bottle which is all we needed as a couple." Amazon has slashed 49 per cent off the Terra Black Sodastream. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
