'Silent' tower fan is perfect for keeping cool on hot summer nights

Daily Record23-04-2025

This fan was a great choice for one shopper who said it 'is a game-changer for keeping cool during hot summer days.'
The days are getting longer, brighter and hotter as summer winds its way here. Hot weather is great, until it gets to nighttime and bedrooms become hot, stuffy and uncomfortable, meaning sleep is trickier too.
An essential around this time of year and into the summer months is a fan to bring some breeze and freshness to spaces whether it's the bedroom or communal living spaces. Shoppers are in luck as the Dreo 28dB Silent Tower Fan is down to £67.99 from £79.99 on Amazon.
This fan has a number of interesting features such as its all-in-one airflow system that combines with an electric motor meaning a whole living space can be aired as fast as up to 25 ft per second. If the bedroom is where it'll be housed, buyers no longer have to worry about the noisy loud sound that usually comes with using some makes of fans. This one has a number of features such as auto mute in sleep mode, an eight hour timer and a soft airflow which means no noise will be heard and shoppers can still get a peaceful night of sleep.
The 36-inch fan has safety covered as it includes a removable rear grille and is designed with fingertip, pinch-proof grills, a fused plug and built-in circuit protection. The versatile fan comes with four modes - normal, natural, sleep and auto - and four speeds ranging from soothing-soft to storm-strong and also has a 90 degree oscillation.
If this isn't the correct option for shoppers they could always try a more expensive option with the Dyson TP7A Purifier Cool Autoreact Fan from Argos for £300 which also captures dust, allergens and bacteria. This fan is suitable for room size up to 27m², has a noise level of 61dB and has 10 speed settings. For a slightly cheaper option the SHARK FlexBreeze HydroGo is £129.99 from Currys and has five speed settings, a quiet performance and 36W of power.
Although there are other options on the market, the Dreo fan did receive a 4.6 out of 5 star rating from a total of 33,642 reviews on Amazon. One shopper wrote: 'Bought this fan last year and honestly one of the best things I've ever purchased. It's so easy to use and it actually blows cold air rather than just circulating the hot air. The different modes are really helpful (sleep mode is so silent and perfect for me, I wake up to any noise). My whole family has bought one, I would 10/10 recommend it.'
Another said: 'I recently purchased the Dreo Tower Fan, and I couldn't be more pleased with my choice. This fan is a game-changer for keeping cool during hot summer days.'
'This fan is amazing. I've bought others which were too loud, or had annoying bright lights or just weren't very effective. This fan is none of those things. It's quiet, not totally silent but I can't sleep with a ticking clock and this fan doesn't bother me at all…The best thing I've bought in a long time,' said another customer.
Although the majority of reviews were positive, there were some shoppers who had some hesitations about the fan. One of them wrote: 'Moved a good quantity of air but much louder than expected. I returned due to it being too noisy to use as a bedroom fan. It would be good for use in other rooms where noise is not as much of an issue.'
Another shopper said: 'It is average at best. Neat looking but I get a cooler flow from an older fashioned circular fan. A bit disappointing to be honest.'
Keeping in mind all reviews, reports and prices, and the Dreo 28dB Silent Tower Fan may give shoppers the perfect combination of a peaceful nights sleep while also added some cool and comfort during hotter weather.

Amazon data centres to consume ‘as much electricity to power Burnley'

A complex of huge data centres being built by Amazon in Britain will consume as much electricity needed to power a town the size of Burnley, campaigners have claimed. The proposed data centres, near Houghton Regis in Bedfordshire, are projected to consume around 114.8 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity a year. This equivalent to the power consumed by more than 42,500 UK households, according to researchers at Global Action Plan, which is campaigning against the development. It exceeds the number of homes in Burnley, which stood at 41,955 after the most recent Census in 2021. Planning documents show the two data centres in the development will include 42 back-up diesel generators, each around 25 metres tall, that need to be fired up fortnightly to check they are working. It is estimated this will produce the same emissions as 1,079 homes heated by gas. The plans were lodged with Central Bedfordshire Council by Colliers Properties, a known partner of Amazon Web Services (AWS), the retail giant's cloud computing division. The documents name Amazon Data Services UK as the site's eventual operator. Known as Linmere Island, the project would sit on an empty 22-acre greenfield site. While the plans also include 140 solar panels, it is not clear how much power they will supply to the data centres.

Samsung Galaxy SmartTag reduced from £35 to £13

Amazon is offering the Bluetooth tracker that's the 'perfect travel companion' Bluetooth trackers are a must-have travel companion, letting users keep an eye on exactly where their luggage, handbag and even their keys are. Amazon has slashed the price of the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2, offering a fabulous 62% discount in time for shoppers heading off on their summer holidays. The gadget usually costs £34.99 and can now be purchased from the online giant for £13.20. This is the cheapest price around, with the SmartTag2 costing £20.40 when bought directly from Samsung, while Argos is selling it for £23.99. The tracker can be popped inside a handbag or clipped on to a suitcase, allowing travellers to follow their belongings via the app. It's worth noting, however, that the gadget is only compatible with Samsung Galaxy devices. The SmartTag2 offers up to 500 days of battery, with the handy Power Saving mode extending its lifespan by up to 40%. The device is built to withstand dust and water, making it a robust travel companion. If travellers cannot find their belongings, the tracker's Search Nearby feature provides intuitive step-by-step instructions via Compass View. There's also the Ring Your Tag function that makes the gadget audibly signal its whereabouts to help locate it quickly. If the item still cannot be located, fear not, as the SmartTag2 has a convenient Lost Mode. When this is activated, the Near Field Communication displays its owner's registered contact information on the smartphone of whoever finds it. The Apple AirTag is a similar tracking device for iPhone users. Amazon is currently offering a single tracker on sale for £28, while a four-pack costs £92. Currys is selling the CHIPOLO Bluetooth Item Finder on sale for £11.99. This gadget is compatible with both iOS and Android smartphones. Over 7,300 Amazon shoppers have reviewed the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 to date, awarding it an overall score of 4.3 out of five. One impressed buyer wrote: "Outstanding simple piece of tech, effective and does exactly what it says on the tin… I use these on my keys, in my wallet and even in my car. Easy to locate using the app and an absolute lifesaver in the early morning panics of 'where are the keys?' "Helps add peace of mind for security and is very small to hide. Also helps locate where you left your car when parking. Overall, this is a fantastic piece of kit." Unfortunately one buyer was disappointed with the tracker, as they didn't realise it was only compatible with Samsung devices. They explained: "Never read anywhere this was only good for Galaxy phones. Unfortunately I bought it a few months ago in advance of a holiday, so I only just found it won't work with my Google Pixel phone even though it operates on Android." Someone else, however, is thrilled with the SmartTag2. They commented: "Perfect little tracker to keep an eye on belongings. I have one in my vehicle and also use one on my cat's collar. Battery life is also quite surprising. Location history etc. Fairly accurate, too."
