'This Prime Day sale on Shark fan is seriously tempting'
I've had my eye on this Shark fan for a while. It's become one of those products, you know the ones where you look at something once then it feels like it's constantly popping up on your social media feed tempting you forevermore.
The Shark FlexBreeze TableMate has been on sale at £99.99 for a while, which has really caught my attention. But now even more has been shaved off the price as Amazon launches its Prime Day Deals, knocking another £10 off and leaving it at a super enticing £89.99 - 40% off the £149.99 RRP.
It's such a good deal that I've finally bitten the bullet and ordered it. Amazon's price is currently even cheaper than direct from Shark where the fan will set you back £99.99. It's significantly more expensive at Currys where it's priced at £149.99.
I'm one of those people who's always too hot at the best of times. Where others are reaching for the thermostat I'm normally just right, and, as such, I love a good fan, especially over summer.
I already have two fans that I rate very highly. One is the Challenge White Pedestal and Desk Fan (£70 at Argos), that's super impressive when you turn it up. So much so I've used it in some capacity almost every night since I've bought it.
The fan is a bit cheaper than some of the more premium options but still really packs a punch when you need cooling down. If you have a bit more budget to spend, I also have the Midea SmartAir Cool and Purify Bladeless Fan. Sold for £199.99 at both High Street TV and £199 at Amazon, (you can read the full review here).
It has all manner of fancy features and High Street TV says it's a fan that "does it all" and it's hard to disagree. But what those two don't have is a battery function. I spend a lot of my spare time doing DIY or playing with my son (not at the same time!) as such, I'm often sweltering outdoors in the recent heatwave temperatures, but can't be bothered going to the effort of setting up an extension lead and plugging in one of the fans.
That's where the Shark FlexBreeze TableMate is going to be excellent. Its portability means it can simply be unplugged and run off the battery, making it ideal for those looking for a cooling breeze on the go. Shark says the fan can run for up to 24 hours on the battery, though that's on the lowest speed setting.
When ramped up the fan covers "up to 20 meters", while it's UV and rain resistant, making it suitable for use outdoors. Other features include five fan speeds, 180 degrees of side-to-side oscillation, and a 55° tilt to keep the air circulating at the desired angle.
Of the buyers who've delved in to date, the fan has averaged 4.5 stars out of 5. One of the delighted reviewers said: "This is by far the best fan I have ever had! We have a heatwave right now and I normally can't sleep, but not this year! Slept all the way through and didn't hear the fan yet I was cool all night. Only wish I'd found this sooner."
One of the few less positive reviews highlighted a potential issue: "When using this fan as a plug in it's brilliant and I'm very happy with it in every way, but when using it on battery which is fully charged and on 2nd lowest setting the battery doesn't last long."
Despite this another buyer was very happy: "I did consider another leading brand but decided on Shark. This for me has been a really good choice. This fan is fairly expensive but the build quality is plain to see and it works really well.
"It is so versatile being able to run on mains and battery I can take it anywhere, it even has a remote control. I would recommend this fan to anyone even my friends."

Amazon's slashes 33% off 'powerful' vacuum cleaner that 'makes cleaning faster'
Amazon has slashed 33% off a highly-rated vacuum cleaner that users say makes cleaning faster. The Ultenic U16 Flex Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has been reduced from £179.99 to £119.99 – a £60 saving. This model is said to boast 'turbocharged' suction power thanks to a brushless motor that delivers up to 50,000Pa, making it perfect for both hard floors and carpets. It features three suction modes, from low to high, allowing it to effectively deal with stubborn dirt, pet hair and embedded debris in carpets. Designed with pet owners in mind, the vacuum cleaner has an anti-tangle design in the brush head, similar to rival Shark vacuums. This feature not only protects floors but also extends the lifespan of the device. Another notable feature is the bendable tube, which allows users to clean under furniture without having to bend down. In addition to its flexibility, the vacuum cleaner offers extended reach, thanks to a nozzle that can extend up to 1.2m and an included crevice tool, making it easier to reach high areas or clean behind furniture. The Ultenic U16 also comes with green headlights in the brush head – making it easier to spot dust and dirt in darker areas – and a battery life of up to 60 minutes. The vacuum cleaner features an LED colour display that provides real-time updates on suction power, battery level and error alerts. While it doesn't have the automatic emptying function found in premium models like the Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum (£199.99), the Ultenic U16 offers an affordable alternative without compromising on performance. Another rival offer is £100 off the Hoover HF4 Hydro Cordless Vacuum Cleaner (£199), which includes a mopping feature for cleaning kitchens, bathrooms and other hard surfaces. However, for those preferring the Amazon bargain, the Ultenic U16 Flex Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has earned a 4.6-star rating from over 3,000 reviews, with 91% being four or five stars. One buyer commented: "This vacuum has made my cleaning routine faster and less tiring. "It's lightweight, very easy to manoeuvre and the flexible wand is a game changer for cleaning under furniture without having to bend down. The suction is excellent on hard floors and carpets – much better than I expected for a cordless vacuum in this price range. It's a fantastic product with thoughtful design and performance." Another said: "I've used this every day since I bought it and it does the job well. The suction is good and with the extra heads I can get into corners of my car and house. The battery life is great too, I've had it for over a week and only charged it once." This buyer was less enthusiastic, saying: "It's good value for money. My only criticism is the length of the brush tool is too short and the front of the dirt chamber keeps bumping against things when used in confined spaces." While another glowing review of the Ultenic vacuum read: "Powerful and convenient. This has been a game changer for my cleaning routine. It's lightweight and has surprisingly strong suction for a cordless model. Perfect for quick clean-ups and everyday use."
