These two fan-tastic deals bring the heat like an apartment with no air conditioning in July

Here's one for sun worshippers in the US and UK: two of Shark's best fans are on offer at excellent prices in the early Amazon Prime Day deals. First up is the viral Shark Flexreeze HydroGo, now $99/£99 at Amazon (was $149/£129), but there's also the fabulous 2-in-1 Shark FlexBreeze Fan, now $179/169 at Amazon (was $199/£199).

With the FlexBreeze, Shark took its bold first steps into air care, and both fans have proven to be immensely popular for their misting tech. While these aren't quite as smart as some of Dyson's popular fans or the best fans we've tested, they are immensely effective, as I discovered earlier this month on my birthday (which, as it so frequently does, fell on the hottest day of the year here in the UK.)

Of course, as with all Prime Day deals, you've got to be a Prime member to benefit; you can sign up for $14.99 per month, or make use of the 30-day Amazon Prime free trial (or a six-month free trial for 18-24-year-olds), to take advantage of this great low price.

Both of these fans are fantastically versatile, and unlike the corded fans of yore, you can bring the cooling with you anywhere in the home. We like the standard FlexBreeze 2-in-1 so much that we gave it five stars in our review, and the HydroGo also earned a respectable four stars for its even more portable form factor.

As temperatures climbed to 90°F/32°C (reminder, UK heat is much more dense and humid than you'd expect) in my aircon-free apartment on my birthday, my FlexBreeze fans were the best gift I could ask for, allowing me not only to circulate air around my home, but also take a trip outdoors with my misting attachment to help me stay fresh.

If you'd like to explore your options, then our best fans should be the next place you go. For more specialized options, we'd recommend checking out our other lists of the best air purifiers.
