Need a fan to help you handle the ongoing heatwave, but found yourself facing empty shelves? Don't panic — there's still time to grab a great one, if you know where to look. I'm TechRadar's home tech expert, and I've scoured the web to find the fans that I'd buy with my own money, and which are still in stock for delivery this week.
First of all we have the Shark ChillPill, which I currently have in my bag, and is a lifesaver on public transport — or even if you're outside when the wind dies down and you're feeling uncomfortable. The fun colours are sold out, but it's still available in silver and grey. There's a Dyson Pure Hot+Cool HP00 still available to buy as well, and it will double as a heater when winter rolls around.
Dimplex's FlexBlade fan is still available, and blows a sheet of air over your bed. I used this fan when the temperature hit 35C and it was the only way I could get a proper night's sleep. I have a Meaco Sefte fan on my desk, and although Meaco's own storefront has been stripped bare, you can still grab its six-inch diameter air circulator at John Lewis if you're speedy. Read on for links to all these fans and more, but move fast — they won't be around for long.
