Shoppers 'blown away' by 'excellent' mist fan perfect for heatwave
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.

Inside Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos's blended family... including his VERY private children
After a two-year long engagement, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are due to tie the knot next week - and when they do, their families will officially become blended. The Amazon founder, who's net worth is $215 billio n, welcomed four children with his ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, whom he married in 1993. The couple met while they working for the same investment management firm, D. E. Shaw & Co, and tied to knot a year before Bezos launched Amazon. They were together for 25 years before parting ways after his romance to Lauren was exposed, and they finalized their divorce in 2019. There is little known about Jeff and MacKenzie's four kids - three biological sons and a daughter they adopted from China - with all of them keeping a quiet profile despite their father's fame and fortune. Lauren, 55, on the other hand, welcomed a son, named Nikko Gonzalez, with footballer Tony Gonzalez in 2002 before splitting. She then walked down the aisle with Hollywood agent Patrick Whitesell in 2005, and together, they had a son, named Evan Whitesell, in 2006 and a daughter, named Eleanor Whitesell, in 2008. They were together for more than a decade up until her affair with Jeff was brought to light in early 2019. With Lauren and Jeff's extravagant wedding plans in Venice, Italy, just days away, FEMAIL rounded up everything we know about their kids. Jeff and MacKenzie's eldest son Preston makes rare appearances with his father Jeff and MacKenzie's first child, a boy named Preston, was born in 2000. His name is a family moniker, with his father, grandfather and great grandfather having the middle name Preston. While Preston is rarely seen, he was snapped attending the Academy Awards with his dad in 2020. He was also spotted at the 2019 American Portrait Gala Preston reportedly attended Princeton University, as did both of his parents. He was also rumored to have completed a humanities and engineering degree from MIT, after Jeff was spotted at MIT's commencement ceremony in 2022. Jeff and MacKenzie share three other children together but they have shied away from the public eye The former also share two younger biological sons and an adopted daughter from China. However, the children's identifies are shrouded in mystery, with only Preston's name known to the public. The kids are rarely seen out or with their famous parental figures. One of the only times the Bezos bunch have been seen with their dad was almost 10 years ago at the Star Trek Beyond film premiere at Comic-Con International in San Diego in July 2016. Lauren has three children from previous relationships and her eldest son is a budding model Lauren's eldest son Nikko graduated from college in 2024 and is now a budding model. Her other kids Evan and Ella have opted to stay out of the spotlight so very little is known about them. In January 2023, Lauren spoke out about how she and her billionaire beau have blended their families, with her joking that she felt like they were the 'Brady Bunch' sometimes. 'On a typical Saturday, we hang out, we have dinner with the kids, which is always fun because you never know where the conversation is going to go with this many kids,' she told the Wall Street Journal. She also dished on co-parenting with her exes, specifically Tony, whom she branded as her 'best friend.' 'It wasn't always that way. There was friction [at the beginning]. But Tony and [his wife October "Tobie" Gonzalez] were at Thanksgiving with us [this year], and we're really good friends,' she explained. 'That took about five years, but we always communicated. I'm not saying that being best friends with your ex is the end-all be-all - but you do need to be able to communicate. 'I'm so proud of it. My son looks at me, and he's like, "I'm the luckiest boy in the world because I can have Thanksgiving with both my parents, and they don't have to be married."' She did not touch on her relationship with Patrick. What to expect from Lauren and Jeff's wedding The guest list is thought to have less than 200 people, with suspected guests including A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom and even members of the Trump family. The Amazon boss has booked the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, one of the largest and grandest buildings in the historical center of Venice, as part of the multi-day-long extravaganza of celebrations. According to an insider, Jeff's $500 million superyacht, Koru, will be moored off the coast of San Georgio Maggiore island, which is home to the famous Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, a 16th century Benedictine church. They shared that the island is 'off-limits to visitors' from June 24 to June 29, with the mayor believing that the wedding will take place on the yacht - although The Misericodria, an iconic event space in Venice, has been booked out from June 26 to June 28. It's unclear if the space is related to their wedding, but the insider added that a private tender service is said to be taking guests from the island to the yacht. Separate sources recently told the Daily Mail that the festivities are expected to cost anywhere from $15 to $20 million.

Shoppers dub cooling blanket a 'game-changer during hot nights' amid sale
'I love it, it really cools you down on hot nights, my little girl has nabbed it from me now so I will have to buy a second one.' While the weather has been seen to fluctuate over the past few months, the nights are certainly warmer, which has caused many people to struggle with getting to sleep. And with a heatwave set to hit the country this weekend, many people are looking for ways to keep cool during the night. While fans can be a popular option, they can also be nosy and ultimately add an extra cost to your bills. For those looking for an alternative option, Amazon has dropped the price of a product that shoppers are dubbing a "game-changer". The Luxear Cooling Blanket comes in a variety of sizes, but the 220cm by 240cm edition has been given a price slash as part of a limited time deal. Normally retailing for £44.99, shoppers who struggle to sleep in the heat can now grab it for £38.24. Designed with Arc-Chill 3.0 Japanese technology, this cooling blanket is said to deliver a cool, calm, sweat-free night during the hot summer months. With a Q-Max 0.5, this blanket delivers a cool feeling when it is touched, which will help regulate the user's temperature. While there are different sizes available for shoppers, this edition is perfect for those who have a double or king size bed. Described as a super light and portable, this blanket can be taken on trips away in the car, hiking, or simply thrown over the sofa. The blanket also comes with moist absorption to avoid the formation of bacteria, and it is also said to be friendly for the skin and anti-allergenic. Additionally, this blanket is machine washable and it can be used all year round as one side features the cold material, while the other is made of 100 per cent cotton for a breathable and flexible blanket. Another popular cooling blanket available on Amazon is the Elegear Cooling Blanket. Currently down to £33.99 in a limited time deal (RRP £39.99), this blanket is said to be able to reduce the skin's temperature by two to five degrees as it is specifically designed for night sweats and hot sleepers. Alternatively, shoppers can save £10 on the Silentnight Restore Cooling Throw. Normally retailing for £45, shoppers can get this throw for £35 in a limited time deal. Made with innovative cooling fabrics, this product can be used as either a blanket or a duvet. For those worried about lack of sleep during the heatwave, Luxear's Cooling Blanket has become popular amongst customers as it currently boasts a 4.3 star rating. Many shoppers have praised the blanket for its cool touch and how it has improved their sleep. One happy shopper said: "I bought the Luxear Cooling Blanket for summer, and it's been a game-changer during hot nights. The Arc-Chill technology really works—this blanket keeps you cool and comfortable, even when the temperature rises. The fabric feels smooth and breathable, and I've noticed I sleep a lot better without overheating." While another five-star reviewer commented: "I love it, it really cools you down on hot nights, my little girl has nabbed it from me now so I will have to buy a second one. The blanket feels quite heavy, which is quite cosy too. Colour is nice, good value for money." However, a few shoppers had slight issues with the blanket, as one person said: "I wish this was a duvet cover instead of a blanket as it doesn't stay put on the bed. Lovely to feel the cooler side on these hot nights." While another person added: "Useful to help keep you cool in the heat but will eventually obviously stop being able to take the heat away from you so will warm up. Also not entirely sure how I'm going to wash it as it's already quite weighted so not sure how heavy it will be once wet!" On the flip side, a delighted shopper said: "Was a bit sceptical at first but honestly couldn't be happier, product is super soft and durable and actually slept really well with the arc-chill 3.0 would highly recommend." With a further person writing: "I was sceptical, but very pleased with the cooling properties of this blanket. I struggle to regulate my temperature, and during the recent warm weather this was an absolute godsend, particularly at night, as I cannot sleep without something over me, no matter how warm it is."
