Shark's new bladeless tower fan rivals Dyson with better features and a cheaper price
Ditch the clunky tower fan in the corner of your home collecting dust and save a little bit on the electric bill those window air conditioners crank out. Shark just debuted the TurboBlade, a cooling fan that you won't mind taking up precious real estate in living spaces.
Shark TurboBlade Fan
Lauded as one of the most powerful bladeless fans, the Shark TurboBlade does it all. It pivots, twists and oscillates, so cooling breezes can sweep nearly every inch of your home. Shoppers will appreciate its unique modes, like Air Blanket, which provides widespread coolness at night. Nearly 4 feet tall and equipped with multidirectional vents, the TurboBlade's fan head pivots from vertical to horizontal, bringing coolness to any and all levels. Twist each end of the dual vents to position the airflow exactly where you need it the most. Speaking from experience, these multidirectional vents are a total game changer if you have a cramped space where beds or couches can block airflow. The fan can also swivel 180 degrees to reach more square footage in your home, with airflow spanning up to 80 feet.
Similar to other bladeless options like the Dyson Cool, the Shark TurboBlade builds in 10 fan speeds plus specialty modes. That includes Sleep mode, which mutes chimes, dims lights and optimizes fan speeds. Meanwhile, Nature Breeze mode randomizes airflow to simulate natural wind, and BreezeBoost gives an extra burst of airflow for hot days.
Its slim paddle silhouette is certainly less clunky and more streamlined than traditional tower fans. As someone who's used the Dyson fan for years, I still prefer its aesthetic, but Shark's latest innovation packs in more cooling capabilities, an ideal choice if you value function over form. Not to mention, it does so at nearly $120 less than the comparable Dyson Cool.
In the realm of high-tech home products, there's always stiff competition. Shark has been a worthy adversary when challenging peers like Dyson. The brand even won me over with its FlexStyle, a multi-styler frequently compared to the Dyson Airwrap. It has an edge over others with its powerful suite of tools at unbeatable prices, and this launch only furthers that sentiment.
Our deals team, consisting of senior editor Rikka Altland, editor Jacqueline Saguin and associate editor Elena Matarazzo, is passionate about unearthing deals that we would be tempted to shop for ourselves. This launch landed on our radar recently, and based on how much our readers and experts alike enjoy Shark's innovations, like the FlexStyle, we had to share the news.

23 Target Products That Clean And Organize For You
A shower cleaner you can spritz and forget — it does the hard part (aka fighting mold and mildew) while you go live your life. No scrubbing, no gloves, just clean shower vibes on autopilot. Promising review: "Huge fan of this product. We have a marble pebble shower floor with lighter grout, and the grout had to be cleaned (scrubbed) all the time due to discoloration. I use this product twice per week, and no more problems. It smells great and works, and all you do is spray it on and walk away. Since we have a large shower, I use a 56-ounce pump sprayer, which makes it a breeze to apply." —GJPPrice: $3.39+ (available in two sizes) A Roomba robot vacuum and mop that literally does your chores while you nap, watch Netflix, or contemplate cleaning without doing it. It even empties itself. We stan a self-sufficient queen. Easily convert from an all-floor vacuum to a hard floor vacuum and mop with the simple switch of a bin. It even cleans up after itself, emptying its vacuum bin into an enclosed bag that holds up to 60 days of debris, which means two whole months of not thinking about vacuuming.Promising review: "I've had the Roomba Combo i5+ for several months now, and it's been a total game-changer. It vacuums and mops simultaneously, saving me time and effort. The self-emptying feature is a standout — it empties itself into the Clean Base so I don't have to think about it for up to 60 days. I was so impressed that I bought one for my mom. She loves it too — especially the Smart Mapping, which lets us customize cleaning schedules and zones through the iRobot Home App. It's been a huge help for both of us in keeping our homes clean with minimal effort." —TheReviewerPrice: $549.99 A hair tool organizer with hidden magnets to catch bobby pins before they mysteriously disappear into the void. Promising review: "Perfect holder for hair hot tools like a blow-dryer and straightener, with room for other things like hair sprays, brushes, etc. in the front. Looks more expensive than it was. Highly recommend!" —LucyMKPrice: $30 A five-pack of toilet cleaning tablets you just plop in and walk away from. Your toilet gets cleaner every time it flushes, and you didn't even lift a scrub brush. Promising review: "I love these tablets — they are the only ones I will use. I like that they make the water blue, and once the water turns clear, I know it's time to drop a new one in. It helps keep the toilet clean longer and of course, they last through a lot of flushes compared to other brands I have used before." —Yas3179Price: $5.79 A Dyson V8 stick vacuum that's lightweight, cordless, and basically fun to use — which is the highest compliment a vacuum can get. It's my absolute favorite bug-catcher too. Promising review: "Works amazing! I am able to do my entire house (three beds, one bath) on a single charge. Picks up all the dog hair that my two bulldogs leave around the house! Doesn't work well on big items as they can plug it up. I just used it on my wood floors, tile, area rugs, and carpet with no problems. Love that it is cordless and I can use it on my car! Attachment is great for cleaning ceiling fans! Love that it's lightweight and can be easily used on my stairwell leading to downstairs! My last Dyson that is a V7 (still have it) lasted me 7–8 years and is still going strong. Actually stuck it in the camper so I don't have to bring a vacuum back and forth between the camper and house." —HarlyandmePrice: $299.99 (originally $429.99) A honeycomb drawer organizer to make sure your socks don't keep ghosting you. No more digging, they're right where they should be. Promising review: "It's true. I LOVE these. I got two to organize my socks and undies. It's been great not to scrounge around my drawer forever looking for a match that I thought existed until a week ago (it doesn' did that happen?) 10 stars. No. A MILLION stars." —txgirlPrice: $10 A simple, but effective domed drain cover that quietly collects every last hair in your shower before it becomes a horror story in your pipes. No gloves. No snake. No trauma. Promising review: "This is the second one I have purchased. I have very long hair, and this works great to catch it and avoid clogs. I clean it after every shower. My only complaint has been that it doesn't grip in place, but generally not an issue, and it works much better than other hair catchers I've tried. It works best if you clean it after every shower and take out the drain stop if you have one — otherwise it might not drain well." —SamPrice: $11.99 Or if you're already past the point of prevention, some Drano cleaner gel to cut through hair clogs like a hot knife through butter. Seven minutes later? Flow restored, stress eliminated. Between my long hair and bathing my dogs too, this stuff has saved me more than once (and yes, I finally invested in a drain cover, LOL), so I can confirm it's very easy to use and efficient. Even with a drain protector, it's so good to keep on hand!Promising review: "I never write reviews, but holy cow did this work! Normally, I must pull out the sink stopper and dig out the gunk with a butter knife…gross, I know. But this worked so well that I didn't have to do any follow-up 'cleaning!' I would highly recommend!!!" —HappilySurprisedPrice: $6.89 A clear can organizer that keeps your LaCroix from rolling around like you're in a grocery store simulator. Stack and grab = done. Promising review: "I'm quite the organized person, and the same goes for my fridge. Everything has a place, and these are fantastic. Expensive at first if you're buying to organize your whole fridge, but it's well worth it in the long run. Can also use in the pantry if you don't want cold sodas. I have one that I use for canned soups!" —BerryHonestPrice: $14 A pack of three vacuum bags so your comforters and off-season coats magically shrink into flat little pancakes. Bonus: No folding required. Promising review: "These work great to seal in pillows, bedding, and clothes. Even if you don't vacuum out the air, you can get it pretty compact by rolling the bag." —AlliePrice: $20 for L, XL, and jumbo vacuum bags A washable liner that catches oven and grill messes before they turn into burnt-on regrets. Just lift it out, rinse it off, and bask in the joy of not having to scrape crusty cheese off the bottom of your oven. Promising review: "These last forever. I live in an apartment building where an alarm goes off summoning the fire department if too much smoke develops when food drips onto the oven floor. I give these to new tenants." —Penelope GodwinPrice: $17.99+ (originally $19.99+, available in a two pack or four pack) A pack of 10 Keurig cleaning pods so you can keep your emotional support coffee machine clean without lifting more than a finger. Just pop one in, press start, and voilà — no descaling drama required. Promising review: "This product does the job to clean out the needle and the nozzle where the beverage comes out. I use a rinse pod at least once a week, especially before drinking tea when the Keurig has been used for coffee." —RonTheITGuyPrice: $8.79 A three-tier under sink organizer that turns your chaotic abyss of bottles and cords into a tidy little tower of accessibility. Promising review: "I've purchased a few cheaper versions of these before, and you really do get what you pay for. This one is so much sturdier, a better height, and I love that it's three drawers instead of two! It helped me organize the disaster under my sink, and it holds a ton! I love that I can set things on top of it, too." —SarahPrice: $35 (available in five colors) A pack of stainless steel cleaning wipes so your fridge, oven, and dishwasher don't show every fingerprint from the last decade. Just swipe, toss, and admire that shiny finish. This is my favorite invention and I always use them before I have guests over. It is SO satisfying to wipe away fingerprints and make stainless steal appliances *literally* review: "I've tried a few different stainless steel cleaners and by one, Weiman, is top of the mark! I even use it on my sink when it's wet, and it always dries to a beautiful shine. it is the best for cleaning stainless steel and kitchen appliances!" —KatzPrice: $4.69 for 30 wipes (also available in a spray bottle) A spice system with jars, labels, and a place for everything. It practically organizes itself — and maybe even inspires dinner. It includes 28 glass spice jars and 386 review: "I like the looks of this spice rack with square jars so much that I am trying to find a place other than a drawer to display it! The metal racks are each about 12.75 inches wide. When I ordered it, I didn't realize that it also comes with 11 pages of round spice labels — 340 are pre-printed, and 46 are blank for you to personalize with with the included pen. This spice rack fits all the needs and wants!!" —TdMPrice: $34.99 (originally $89.99) An extendable brush so you can clean your shower without crawling inside it like you're in a Navy SEAL training course. Promising review: "I wish I bought this sooner!! I love, love, love this. It works incredibly well, no more back bending and dreading cleaning my shower/tub. This is amazing!" —BoymomPrice: $15.99 A sink strainer to catch rogue food bits before they pull a disappearing act down your drain and come back as a gross smell. Especially clutch if you're disposal-less and love avoiding gross hand-in-the-drain situations. Promising review: "This catches everything, and the water drains perfectly. You can flip it inside out to clean it out into a trash bag or just scoop out food debris with a napkin. Good product. 5/5." —JoSaPrice: $9.99 A set of eight tiny bins so you can finally conquer that cursed junk drawer. Everything has a place now. Even the seven random screws you're weirdly attached to. Promising review: "THESE ARE GREAT!! Because they lock together, it's not a huge deal if they don't fit your drawer not like you will have one tray sliding all over the place because it will all move together. Very audible click to know when they are locked and you need to use enough force to get them to pop together that you know they won't randomly come apart. Would totally buy this set again (probably will)!" —Scrubs_RN1209Price: $12 A pack of washing-machine cleaning tablets to give your machine a deep clean without scrubbing a single thing. You throw it in, run a cycle, and let it freshen things up like magic. Promising review: "Washer repairman said to get these because they have citric acid, which is needed when doing a wash tub cycle. Works great and makes my drum smell clean." —SoCalMomPrice: $11.29 for a five-pack A stackable wire storage basket so your pantry can stop feeling like a blackhole of crushed snacks and mystery items. Plus, it'll keep your produce from rolling into the abyss and turning into a mysterious science experiment (looking at you, onions and potatoes). Promising review: "I organized my kitchen pantry with bins and needed two big bins for the top shelf that was open in front and had side handles to store tall pasta bags and related items. These bins fit the needs perfectly! Now, I can reach into the bin to grab the dry spaghetti without everything falling onto my head. And the bins pull out easily when I want to grab a back item. An added plus is their super attractive, functional, and top quality. The white finish on the steel is lovely, and the wood handles add farmhouse charm. The bin and handles are very sturdy and strong, and the price is excellent for the usefulness, size, and quality of the bin. I am purchasing another bin today for the pantry floor to hold oils and vinegar." —CocoPrice: $20 A stove top cleaner that makes your glass cooktop sparkle like you've never made a mess in your life — even if you scorched spaghetti sauce there yesterday. Promising review: "Been using this the whole year to clean my cooktop — I always spill things and this makes it a breeze to remove any debris." —ShopperAlexPrice: $5.29 An over-the-door storage rack — it creates space out of literally thin air. Hang it, fill it, forget it — now you're a storage genius. Promising review: "Since my son's first apartment lacks storage space, this was the perfect solution for him to store food/toiletries, etc. Very easy to put together and secure to the back of his closet door. Well-made and a great product." —emjay58Price: $40 A pot lid holder to prevent that mini avalanche every time you open a cabinet. This one adds a layer of peace to your kitchen chaos. Promising review: "Who says wire storage lid organizers are just for the kitchen? They're the perfect way to keep my makeup palettes organized! They look awesome and very practical. Of course, I will be buying some more." —AbbyPrice: $14

Skip the Hair Salon, This Amazing Dyson Hair Dryer Is Being Sold at a Loss by Amazon
In the hair industry, not many companies get the respect Dyson has. Dyson is known for their vacuum expensive vacuum cleaners but they have also changed the hair dryer industry by creating salon-quality styling from home. Their latest creation, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, is the perfect example of their innovation. Amazon currently has a record low price for the Supersonic Nural hair dryer that you do not want to miss, and it's probably making no profit on this device. This model usually retails for $499, but you can currently buy it for $399: That' a rare 20% discount! Significant discounts do not normally happen on Dyson products, so when it does happen, you have to jump on it! See at Amazon Your New Favorite Hair Dryer While traditional hair dryers use heavy bulky motors that are loud and clunky, the Supersonic model uses Dyson's unique digital motor that is tiny, very powerful, and is very quiet. The motor is in the handle instead of the head, which makes the hair dryer more balanced and controlled. You will have a hair dryer that feels light, is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand and will not drain you during long periods of use. There is more: it even has intelligent heat control when using the hair dryer. It has a built-in sensor that measures air temperature more than 40 times a second and it can help prevent heat damage and helps retain your hair's natural shine. The hair dryer features Dyson's Air Multiplier technology which generates a high-speed jet of air that dries hair in less time—and less frizz—while also smoothing strands to ensure you get that professional styling every time. On top of that, the Supersonic dryer provides magnetic styling attachments from gentle air (for relaxed or tender scalps), to styling concentrator (to focus on specific areas), to a diffuser (for curly hairs). Each attachment is easy to trade out and is designed for both usability and efficiency. The Supersonic is also made to keep the user comfortable: Thanks to the engineering of the sound profile, you can dry and style your hair at any time of the day and not disturb anyone else! Dyson hair dryers are utilized by some of the best salons in the world and that speak for itself. Bringing that kind of luxury and performance into your home is a huge advantage, and because it is only $379 right now, you should definitely not miss it. See at Amazon

Everything We Know About Amazon Prime Day 2025 So Far
Amazon's biggest sale of the year—Amazon Prime Day 2025—is officially on the horizon. The retail giant confirmed that it'll be launching this year's Prime Day sale in July, but its specific dates have yet to be released. Assuming the sale follows the same format as years past, Prime members will have 48 hours to take advantage of deals on thousands of items from major brands like Dyson, Apple and Yeti, as well as Amazon's own devices and products. Beyond its press release confirming that Prime Day will return in July, the e-tailer has been pretty tight-lipped about what shoppers can expect. But we can make some predictions based on recent years and current shopping trends. Below, we've answered the most commonly asked questions about Prime Day 2025 and rounded up some of the best Amazon deals you can take advantage of right now if you're in the mood to shop early. Amazon Prime Day is a summer sale that was first introduced in 2015. At its start, Prime Day was a single-day event meant to celebrate the company's 20th anniversary. Since then, the sale has transformed into a two-day annual affair showcasing major discounts on thousands of products. Since 2022, the e-tailer has also hosted an October Prime Day, though that's not its official name. The official dates for Prime Day 2025 haven't been released, but we're predicting the sale to fall sometime in the middle of July. The retailer often hosts Prime Day during the second week of the month, though it has deviated from this pattern in the past. Technically, there's only one Prime Day each year. However, for the past three years, Amazon has run a similar savings event in October. In recent years, it has also started running annual says that are open to the general public (not just Prime members) including the Big Spring Sale, Amazon Pet Day and the Summer Beauty Event. Time will tell if Amazon will continue to add to its annual sale schedule. No, Amazon Prime Day isn't a sitewide sale. That said, you can still find hundreds of thousands of discounts across nearly all product categories from brands like Sony, EltaMD and, of course, Amazon itself. Just keep in mind that you have to be a Prime member to take advantage of the deals. The answer to this question largely depends on what you're shopping for. If you're in the market for Amazon devices, tech and small appliances, you'll likely find some great deals over Prime Day. The same goes for beauty and personal care essentials—Amazon has really stepped up its game in these categories over recent years. However, there will inevitably be plenty of lackluster offers mixed in with the good ones. We always recommend checking the price history of an item by using tools like CamelCamelCamel or checking other sites for price comparison before adding it to your cart. Our editors research the price history of every item we feature in our content, so shopping Forbes Vetted Prime Day deals lists is another way to ensure you're getting a good deal. You don't have to wait for Prime Day to find great deals on Amazon's site. The e-tailer is known for offering some of the best prices and widest variety of products online all year long. Here are a few offers worth checking out now. Sonos is known for its high-end audio gear and the Move 2 is no exception. Besides immersive audio and automatic Trueplay tuning, the newer speaker also has a longer battery life (up to 24 hours on a single charge), an IP56 rating against water and dirt and comes with a charging base. Why It's A Good Deal: This discount matches the best price we've seen for this speaker. If you're looking to try out an at-home laser hair removal device, the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 is our favorite. The versatile machine is suitable for sensitive skin and can be used on the body and face. Check its safety notes before adding to your cart to make sure it will work for you. Why It's A Good Deal: This discount matches the lowest price we've seen for this device. A smart thermostat is a nice eco addition to your home. It can also help you save on annual heating and cooling costs by focusing on high-use rooms to optimize your schedule. This Ecobee model also offers air quality detection, a built-in smoke alarm detector and can be controlled through your existing smart home setup (or with an included smart speaker). Why It's A Good Deal: Althought this is a smaller discount, it's the best price we've seen in 2025 and only $2 shy of its lowest price ever. Dyson's popular cordless vacuums are an excellent option for folks who live in smaller spaces. The vacuums are portable and powerful, offering up to 40 minutes of cleaning per charge. This one comes with a few extra cleaning attachments and a two-year warranty. Why It's A Good Deal: This deal is the second best price we've seen for the Dyson V8 in 2025. I credit this portable flosser for helping get me into a better flossing habit. While a water flosser can't completely replace a regular flossing routine, having this portable machine handy in my shower is a great way to keep up on my daily maintenance. You'll have to fill up the reservoir a couple of times to get a solid clean and I recommend using rechargeable batteries, as you'll need to swap them out periodically. Why It's A Good Deal: This is the best price we've seen for this portable flosser since 2022. This is the first discount we've seen on the PlayStation 5 Pro. The set includes a 2 TB SSD and a Dual Sense controller. Keep in mind that the model does not come with a disc drive, so you'll only be able to play digital games. To help with that, you can also check out PlayStation's Days Of Play Sale to save on a Plus membership, games and more. Why It's A Good Deal: This is the first notable discount we've seen on the Pro model. These popular Sony headphones offer noise cancellation, up to 30 hours of battery life, voice assistant, multiple device pairing and more. This discount is available in black, silver and the blue colorway pictured above. Why It's A Good Deal: These headphones dropped to $198 at the end of last year but this is the best price we've seen since then. Part fan, part air purifier, this bladeless design is easier to clean than a classic fan and has a built-in HEPA H13 filter that cleans the air in your room as it circulates. The fan also includes a remote control, programable turn-off intervals and a night mode that limits sound. Why It's A Good Deal: This discount matches the best price we've seen for this fan from Amazon. A power bank is a must for any traveler. You never know when you might need some emergency battery boost. I brought this Anker model on a extended trip with friends recently, and it was the most used item among all of us. You can attach your phone magnetically and prop it up with the kickstand for hands-free use, or attach a USB-C charging cable for fast charging. Why It's A Good Deal: This is only $3 shy of the best price we've seen for this charger, and the lowest it's dropped since March. If you already have a PlayStation but you need an extra controller, this is a very nice price for the latest design. It offers haptic feedback, a built-in mic and headset connection. You can also connect the controller to your Mac or PC if you prefer something handheld over a keyboard and mouse. Why It's A Good Deal: This is a rare discount and less than a dollar shy of the best price we've ever seen for the PlayStation DualSense.
