Upgrading to a powerful fan can make all the difference when a heatwave hits
As heatwave season approaches, rooms, houses and work offices can easily get stuffy and overheated. An essential that many people are probably looking for currently is a fan.
However, shoppers can now upgrade to a simple fan with a water mist fan for that extra bit of relief from the heat: Amazon has the HOMCOM 18” Pedestal Fan with Water Mist Spray for £109.99.
Shoppers can stay cool all summer with this misting fan that comes with a generous 3.1 litre water tank. It sprays a fine mist that can be felt from up to three meters away – perfect for hot days when a regular fan just isn’t enough. Shoppers can also tilt the head and switch on the side-to-side oscillation to spread the cool around the room. It’s also easy to move with four built-in wheels, and can be used with or without the function.

This fan also has a few extra touches to make summer a bit more comfortable. There’s a slot on the back for mosquito repellent tablets and a small box for essential oils (tablets and oils not included), so shoppers can enjoy a delicately scented, relaxing evening. With three fan modes, three speeds, and an adjustable mist output, it can also be tailored to how the user feels. Shoppers can use the buttons or remote to control it, and set the 12-hour timer so it turns off when they’re asleep or out of the room.
However, if this isn’t the correct choice, there are alternative options for buyers, such as the Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist Indoor & Outdoor Fan & Outdoor Misting System for £249.99 from Shark. This fan can reduce temperatures by up to six degrees, has a long-lasting cordless runtime, ranges up to 20 metres of cool air and has a four-in-one versatility. For a more affordable choice, there is the BRUNO Portable Desk Mist Fan for £60.70 from Debenhams, which is described as a tabletop fan with a retro style that delivers natural and comfortable cool air. When water or ice is placed in the tank, mist is emitted along with the wind. Aroma water and favourite scents can also be added.
Customers of the HOMCOM mist fan, however, have rated it a high 4.3 out of 5 stars from a total of 40 reviews. One shopper said: “Blown away by this… Everything fits together well and the assembly instructions are easy to understand… The manufacturer has clearly given this product a lot of thought and it looks excellent.”
Another said: “Works very nicely and keeps the room nice and cool. It also has aromatic scents that give a nice atmosphere.”
However, naturally, there were some other reviews that didn’t enjoy the fan as much. One person wrote: “It’s pretty good but has some issues.”
“Fabulous fan that has some great features and settings,” said another buyer. “Everyone asks about it and wants one.”
A heatwave is surely coming, though, and if shoppers want that extra special type of fan to keep them cool, the HOMCOM 18” Pedestal Fan with Water Mist Spray is an ideal choice.
