Shark's clever misting fan has £30 off right now – but you'll need to be quick
As the mercury climbs and the nation melts, it pays to have one of the best electric fans in your corner. But even the best fans will struggle during a proper heatwave. If you're looking for a way to cool yourself down more quickly – and you don't fancy spending hundreds of pounds on a portable air conditioner – this deal on the Shark flexbreeze hydrogo is your answer. We reviewed the non-misting version of this model in our round-up of the best fans, so we can vouch for its core design. Unlike the original model, the flexbreeze hydrogo does more than just move hot air around. It uses a special attachment to spritz a fine, cooling mist into the air, providing instant relief on those scorching days. Usually £129.99, we saw the Shark flexbreeze hydrogo go down to just £99 in Amazon's Prime Day sale earlier this month. But if you missed out on the offer, it's not too late, as we've spotted it on sale at Currys for the same price. However, with so many hot spells this year –and the potential for another heatwave – stock is limited, so you'll need to be quick to snap it up. Beat the heat with this fantastic deal on Shark's most versatile fan. The FlexBreeze is portable enough to use on a tabletop and powerful too, providing up to 20m of airflow. UV and rain resistance make it suitable for outdoor use, while its quiet operation on the lowest fan speed means you can use it indoors or by your bedside on hot nights. Its standout feature is the included InstaCool Misting Attachment, which sprays a fine mist for extra cooling on the hottest days. With 12 hours of battery life, it's a brilliant gadget for keeping comfortable during the summer, and reduced to less than £100, it's a heatwave essential. If it drops out of stock at Currys, you can also get it for the same price at Shark and Very.

Shoppers rush to snap up Shark fan they say is 'the best they've ever owned'
Shoppers rush to snap up Shark fan they say is 'the best they've ever owned' With corded and cordless functionality and even a mister included, this fan is a great all-rounder for summer Shark FlexBreeze could be the go-to fan for summer (Image: Amazon ) We have already had one steamy heatwave this spring, but as summer approaches, things are about to heat up even more. There's nothing worse, however, than hot and uncomfortable evenings in bed when it's just too warm. Also, being in the UK usually means most homes don't have air conditioning - which makes fans a necessity. Shark has become a fan favourite, with the brand offering a range of premium fans. Now, shoppers can get their hands on the powerful and adaptable Shark FlexBreeze High Velocity 12 in 1 fan for £175.51, down from £199.99, on Amazon. This fan has got a serious range as it can be used corded or cordless, on a tabletop or on a pedestal, indoors or out. There's 12 ways to stay cool wherever shoppers are. It also boasts five fan speeds, 180 degree oscillation, 55 degree tilt and a remote to make it easy to control from across the room.

The fan is powerful, super quiet - perfect for sleeping - and can run for up to 24 hours on one charge. If shoppers want to use it outside, they can have no fear as it's built tough - it's UV and water resistant. Plus, everything that is needed comes in the box - and shoppers are covered with a 2-year guarantee if they register in the UK or ROI. If this isn't calling out to shoppers, they could opt for the Dyson Cool AM07 Tower fan in white and silver for £269.99 which has a powerful airflow, is engineered for larger spaces, can project up to 500 litres of air per second and can be remote controlled with 10 airflow settings. If not this, the Pro Breeze 40 Inch Bladeless Tower Fan is £119.99 from Debenhams, and is designed with air stream cooling technology, has an option of six fan speeds and five operating modes using the remote control and can have a timer set to work around schedules. Shoppers have, however, rated the Shark fan a high 4.8 out of five stars from a total of 518 reviews on Amazon. One shopper wrote: 'Best fan I've ever owned. This fan is absolutely brilliant… The Shark fan is so good.' The fan can go cordless, so can be used outdoors on hot days (Image: Amazon ) Another said: 'This fan is brilliant. I love how you can take it room to room with you. I'm even taking it on holiday to use by the pool! It is a bit on the heavy side but I presume that is due to the fantastic battery it has. Being able to use the pedestal or not is a great idea. I have an old car with no air con so take it with me on the passenger seat when it's really hot. It's quiet and powerful and has lots of different speed and rotation options.' 'These fans are absolutely phenomenal! This is the second unit I have bought and I can't recommend them too highly. They are almost soundless when in use and really work effectively to cool the room down in this current hot weather,' said another shopper. However, not everyone had the same views, as one customer said: 'Going by the description I was literally expecting to be blown away by the power of this fan but in reality it is just better than the cheap £30 fans you may buy... Don't get me wrong it's good, but not amazingly different for the price you are paying.' Article continues below Another said: 'Fan brilliant but parts were missing.' Despite this, most people were fans of the Shark FlexBreeze High Velocity 12 in 1 fan and it could be a great buy for keeping cool this summer.
