Dyson launches bladeless desk fan with brand-new sleep mode function
The tech giant has launched a new fan ahead of the summer Leading tech brand Dyson has launched a new desk fan in time for summer. The Cool CF1 desk fan is priced at £249.99 and has been designed with a new sleep mode feature, ideal for users who have difficulty sleeping during heatwaves. Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan promises relief from heat in as little as five seconds. The bladeless fan aims to deliver quiet motion even when it is on full power, so users who have it on while they work will not be distracted by any noise. The bladeless design also makes it safe for a family home, as it can be left unattended around children or pets - unlike bladed fans, which may pose a safety hazard. It also has a night mode function, which lets out 'whisper-quiet' air so that users can stay cool and not be interrupted by noise while sleeping. Dyson says it has a range of oscillation angles and manual tilt. Plus, it delivers an airflow of 370 litres per second, with no 'choppy air'. Thanks to its simplistic design, Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan is also easy to clean, as it doesn't have any grilles to remove or dusty blades. To clean, Dyson recommends wiping the loop amplifier with a cloth. Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan is at the higher end of the market price-wise, which can be a potential drawback for hopeful customers. There are cheaper alternatives on the market, including a Russell Hobbs Bladeless Tower desk fan at a more affordable price of £29.99. The cooling system has three modes, including breeze and blast functions for very hot days. The black fan also has built-in ambient lighting, and connects via USB - plug into a laptop, using the included USB Type-C cable, to charge it. Pro Breeze is another leading brand for fans and cooling devices, and a large number of its products are sold on Amazon, including this Desktop Mini Tower Fan. At 13-inches it costs £28.04 (down from £34.99), and has three speeds, automatic oscillation, and a quiet cooling mode. Because Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan has just been launched, there are no reviews available for the product. However, potential shoppers can find many general reviews of Dyson's customer service on Trustpilot. One Dyson vacuum owner called about an issue with their device, writing: "Had reason to speak to Dyson customer support today as problem with cordless vacuum, spoke to very helpful chap called Arris, who resolved my issue in a matter of minutes and arranged for replacement part under warranty. Working in customer service myself, we can all take a leaf out of this guy's book. Top class service, no fuss, just sorted the problem." However, another shopper wasn't as pleased with their customer service experience. They said: "Love my Dyson, but the customer service was disappointing. "My next day delivery never arrived and I wasn't informed or apologised to. A quick glance at reviews shows this seems to be a common issue." But another left a glowing review. They said "Fantastic products and the best customer service I've ever experienced. Worth every penny."

Amazon bladeless fan that 'easily cools' is a 'great Dyson alternative'
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Ireland has enjoyed a rather pleasant spring, with temperatures soaring above 20C in some parts. And as we bid farewell to spring and welcome the onset of summer in June, there's optimism that the balmy weather will persist. For those on the hunt for a new fan, it might be worth considering a bladeless model. Bladeless fans have seen a surge in popularity in recent years, primarily because they don't accumulate dust like their traditional counterparts. This makes them easier to maintain and more suitable for individuals who are prone to allergies. Dyson is arguably at the forefront of this market with its Purifier Cool Gen1, a dual-function cooling and air purifying system. The fan captures and traps pollutants, offers ten settings and is controlled by a remote. However, with a hefty price tag of £349.99, it sits at the higher end of the market, potentially out of reach for many households. (Image: Amazon) Pro Breeze is another top contender in the fan market, offering devices that are more moderately priced, thus appealing to a wider consumer base. For example, its Bladeless Tower Fan is priced at €169, and numerous customers have compared its performance and quality favourably to Dyson's, reports the Mirror. The Tower Fan by Pro Breeze utilises 'Air Stream Cooling Technology', which enhances cooling power to distribute a stream of cool air throughout rooms. It features large 4mm vents, which prove handy during heatwaves. In terms of reviews, the Pro Breeze model from Amazon received more than 700 ratings. One customer described it as: "This fan has proven to be a great Dyson alternative so far. I brought it for my son, who sleeps in a bed tent (he's autistic), and it helps cool him down during the high heat." This user noted that is was quiet saying: "It's not that loud, turns itself off, and has an easy-to-use touch-button panel on the front that my son knows how to use. So, it's not at all complicated." In contrast, a second consumer gave the product 2 stars, having found the fan noise excessive stating: "This fan is so loud I have to turn my TV up! I have a cheap one that is quieter and just as powerful. Sorry, I can't recommend this as it's too loud, definitely not ultra quiet." A third buyer rated the fan highly saying: "Probably the best fan I've ever owned. I went through quite a lot of cheap fans and I've had Dyson ones. But this is by far the best I've seen, especially for bladeless." They went on to say: "It does have 6 speed settings. The first 2 settings are definitely kind of quiet, so pretty good for those who hate sounds and have a decent amount of air." And concluded: "The 6th setting is really powerful a strong wind but sounds almost like a vacuum cleaner but not as bad. Still I wouldn't think it's ideal to sleep with the 6th setting unless you do like the sound of the fan like me. "The size is good usually with most fans it can barely reach the top of my bed but this goes above the height of it which is really good. 5/5 definitely recommend." A fourth was equally positive: "As a fan this is great, easily as cooling as a Dyson or bigger more expensive brand, even on low settings you can feel it. The instructions are easy to follow, the remote is easy to use. "It's a little chunky not massively but there's definitely more streamlined versions out there. It's not deafeningly loud, but you can hear it as it's not silent either. I do think it's a great fan for the money, though. I would definitely buy again."

Amazon fan is a 'great Dyson alternative' and 'easily as cooling'
The Pro Breeze fan has been praised for its quality and functionality The nation has seen pretty good weather this spring, with highs of almost 30C in some regions. As the season winds down, and June brings the start of summer, there are hopes that the warm weather will continue. Shoppers who are in the market for a new fan may want to consider a bladeless option. Bladeless fans have gained popularity over the last few years, as they don't gather dust like traditional fans do. This makes them easier to clean and also more user-friendly for people who suffer from allergies. Dyson arguably leads the market with its Purifier Cool Gen1, a two-in-one cooling and air purifying system. The fan captures and traps pollutants, has ten settings and is operated by a remote control. However, with a pricetag of £349.99, it it's at the top end of the market, and costs more than most households may be willing to spend. Pro Breeze is another leading brand for fans, and its devices are mid-range price-wise, making its models appealing to a larger majority of consumers. For instance, its Bladeless Tower Fan is £134.99, and many customers have likened its performance and quality to that of Dyson. The Tower Fan by Pro Breeze is made with 'Air Stream Cooling Technology ', which amplifies cooling power to send a stream of cold air across rooms. It has large 4mm vents, which are useful during heatwaves. Another alternative is Bush's Tower Fan, which is £65 at Argos. This is a traditional blade fan that comes with a multi-functional remote. It has three settings and also has an oscillating function. Returning to Amazon's Pro Breeze device, it has more than 700 reviews, with one shopper commenting: "This fan has proven to be a great Dyson alternative so far. I brought it for my son, who sleeps in a bed tent (he's autistic), and it helps cool him down during the high heat. "It's not that loud, turns itself off, and has an easy-to-use touch-button panel on the front that my son knows how to use. So, it's not at all complicated." A second consumer rated it two stars, as they found it too loud: "This fan is so loud I have to turn my TV up! I have a cheap one that is quieter and just as powerful. Sorry, I can't recommend this as it's too loud, definitely not ultra quiet. A third buyer said: "Probably the best fan I've ever owned.

A third fan option comes courtesy of Shark, where consumers can pick up a FlexBreeze Portable Fan for £175, down from £199.99. The hybrid indoor and outdoor fan comes with a cover, a pedestal stand, a remote controller and an InstaCool Misting Attachment.

Amazon knocks £95 off best-selling air conditioning unit
The air con unit can be controlled using a smartphone and has four operating modes, including a dehumidifier setting The current heatwave has brought gloriously sunny weather to the UK, as well as soaring temperatures that can be unbearable when trying to sleep or work from home. Amazon may have the answer, with the online retailer now offering its best-selling Pro Breeze 5000 BTU Portable Air Conditioning Unit on sale. Originally priced at £279.99, the handy gadget currently has a £95 discount, bringing the cost down to £184.99. This is the cheapest price around, with the unit costing £199.99 when bought directly from Pro Breeze and Debenhams. The aircon unit has four operating modes - air cooling, dehumidifier, fan-only and energy-saving sleep mode - to help keep households cool this summer. It has adjustable louvre vents to optimise airflow and comes with two window venting kits to fit the unit on sliding or hinged windows. The Pro Breeze unit has easy-to-use touch buttons and a remote control so that the operating modes, fan speeds, 24-hour timer and thermostat can be easily adjusted without having to move. The smart aircon unit can also be controlled via a smartphone through the free Pro Breeze app. For shoppers wanting to explore more AC units, Argos is currently offering a £60 discount on the De'Longhi Pinguino Compact ES72 Portable Air Conditioner. Now priced at £400, this gadget has three speed settings, a 24-hour timer and comes with a remote control. A more budget-friendly option is the LOGIK L48ACW20 Portable Air Cooler that's currently on sale at Currys for £59. It only offers a seven-hour timer, but has three speed settings and includes a remote control. Over 1,300 Amazon customers have reviewed the Pro Breeze 5000 BTU Portable Air Conditioning Unit to date, awarding it an overall score of 4.2 out of five. One impressed buyer rated it five stars and commented: "As a woman of a certain age, I get a bit overheated on the odd hot day we have in this country. I bought this when the price was reduced, and it arrived on the first day of our four-day summer. Perfect for instant cooling. In the bedroom, it took less than 10 minutes to drop the temperature by six degrees. "I had it on the top landing one day as I work upstairs, and it kept at a steady 20 degrees, no problem. Very loud on full fan, but it didn't really bother me. It does have a sleep mode which is quieter, but we didn't need it overnight... Not used the window fixer yet as we move it around which is really easy on its wheels. Quite heavy so it takes both of us to take it up and down stairs if we ever need to. Has a remote which is great, but I love that it connects to an app on my phone as I am a techy geek." A second delighted shopper wrote: " This product is an absolute game changer, I am so pleased I purchased it and highly recommend anyone else who is considering buying it to go ahead, you won't regret it. I live in a one-bed flat which gets the sun from 3pm onwards and turns into what essentially feels like a sauna. I have Dyson fans in each room, and whilst they too are great, they only cool the specific area it is pointing at. I have not had an air conditioning unit before, and it is simply amazing. My only regret is not taking the plunge and buying it years ago. "It is really quick and easy to set up and operate, and the first time I used it, I was in complete disbelief as it cooled the room down so quickly… It has wheels already attached, and it glides with ease from room to room when you need to move it. 10/10 product, I am forever grateful and cannot live without this now." Unfortunately, one person was left unimpressed due to the noise of the Pro Breeze Air Con Unit, as they explained: "We bought this to keep our bedroom cool. The unit is so noisy even on its night setting, so we had to turn it off. I would not recommend this unit to anyone who wants to keep a bedroom cool. Perhaps it would possibly be ok for an office space."
