With another heatwave coming, I'm tracking the best deals on big-name fans — here are the quiet, bedroom-ready models I'd buy before they go out of stock
If you've been checking the weather forecast, you'll have noticed that the temperature is set to rise again next week. It might not reach the scorching highs of 40C, but much of the UK is still going to be hot and sticky, so it's wise to grab a fan before stock flies off the virtual shelves again.
Lots of fans completely sold out last week (some won't be back in stock until October), but there are some great deals on models from big brands if you know where to look. I've scoured the web and found six particularly good offers from reputable brands, so you don't end up settling for less than the best.
My personal pick is the Dimplex FlexBlade Bladeless Tower Fan, which is now £159.99 at Amazon (was £199.99), and kept me comfortable the last time the temperatures soared. You can aim this fan at your bed, and it's quiet enough not to disturb your sleep.
I borrowed one of these fans during the last heatwave, and it was a lifesaver. Its 'arms' can be rotated 90 degrees so it blows a sheet of cool air over your bed. I saw it selling for over £400 in some online stores only a week ago, so this is a great time to snap it up.

An exceptionally quiet fan for keeping your bedroom cool at night, this Philips model lets you adjust the height and angle of airflow for a targeted breeze. The discount isn't huge, but at under £50 I'm not going to quibble.
