We know how tough it can be to keep cool on a budget when the heat rises. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve been busy testing a range of fans to find the best ones for each type of scenario to ensure you stay cool through the summer.<\/p>\n

An electric fan costs between 2p \u2013 12p on average per hour to run, which is far cheaper than other options such as portable air conditioning units. It\u2019s worth spending a little more on a fan if you can, for added benefits like silent operation, timers, and eco modes to cut unnecessary operation time and save on bills long-term.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"Sleeping on hot summer days can be a chore when you\u2019ve got a noisy fan blasting air at you. That\u2019s why the Levoit Silent Tower Fan<\/a> is incredibly quiet and lives up to its silent promise at lower levels. Even at mid-range operation (which is probably too strong to sleep in anyway \u2013 it\u2019s powerful!), the noise is very quiet.<\/p>\n

The fan has a wide rotation angle, with various settings, to ensure full cooling of the room \u2013 with up to 50m square coverage. Choose from a timer option to ensure it doesn\u2019t run all night, while the customisable advanced sleep mode option means the fan will only operate when the room is above a certain temperature.<\/p>\n

You can choose from a basic or smart model, depending on whether you want to integrate with an Alexa device for remote operation. Both come with a remote control, so you don\u2019t need to get out of bed to change the settings. The smart version can also be operated from an app, meaning you can switch it on before you get home to cool your room, or off if you forget before you go out.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"Lidl\u2019s Silvercrest Bladeless Fan is back for the summer. Between 1st \u2013 7th June, it\u2019s also on offer at \u00a354.99 for Lidl Plus members. This is a dupe of the much coveted, very expensive Dyson bladeless fan \u2013 and it stands up to its competitor well.<\/p>\n

What makes this great for year-round use is that it has both cooling and heating options. So, in winter, you can quickly heat a room with a blast of warm air and in summer you can cool it down with cold. The bladeless operation makes it very safe to have around children and pets, and there is a colour-changing light in the base which provides some mood lighting if you want it.<\/p>\n

With up to 20 speeds, a timer for auto-shutoff, and eco mode, it offers a lot of great functions of its high-price tag rival. The only trouble is, it\u2019s hard to get hold of when it\u2019s not in the middle of Lidl \u2013 so be quick and grab yours before it goes out of stock. (You can often find them on eBay or resale websites, but beware that warranties are not guaranteed and people often hike the price to make a profit).<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"Another Levoit one made our list of best fans, proving their quality. We particularly like the Quiet Pedestal Fan<\/a> because it\u2019s almost silent at lower levels, which is perfect if you need a desk fan with a gentle breeze on your face rather than a full-room cooling blast. It will, however, very easily cope with that large space requirement if you have to share it \u2013 and the choice of a short desk height or floor-standing height makes it very versatile for any space.<\/p>\n

There are lots of options to customise it just how you like, from a timer to make sure it turns off after your chosen time, to a Turbo mode for rapid cooling. In fact, in can cool an entire, stuffy room in just one minute flat. Our tester tried this mode, with full oscilation, in a large room \u2013 and was very impressed. The fan automatically moved both horizontally and vertically, with a high fan speed, to ensure rapid cooling.<\/p>\n

A remote control makes it easy to adjust from anywhere in the room, with easy to use buttons. You can also operate from the stand itself.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"This is a powerful fan in a tiny package. It\u2019s a compact design only six inches across, it\u2019s really quiet except on the top speed (of three), which is to be expected. The USB feature means it\u2019s really easy to charge \u2013 and recharge on the go, if you have a powerbank or socket access. But the battery lasts up to 17 hours, so it won\u2019t need to be recharged often.<\/p>\n

It folds into its own stand for travel so it fits in most day packs and weekend bags. Our tester used it overnight for a trip to London, including on a stuffy train and in a hotel with ineffective air conditioning \u2013 they were glad to have it! It oscillates or can be static, so you can use as your own personal cooling directly on you or, as our tester found, on a table to keep a couple of people cool at the same time.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Best for Prams, Cars, and Awkward Spaces \u2013 COZII Clip on Fan<\/a> (RRP from \u00a312.99)<\/h2>\n

Keeping your baby cool in summer is a big challenge sometimes. A fan with a clip on it<\/a> makes it much easier to keep your little one at a reasonable temperature. And if you\u2019re not looking for a pram fan, but need something to keep your car cool, or have no desk space for one in your office cubicle, a clip fan is very versatile. They\u2019re also ideal if you like a fan to sleep to at night but your partner doesn\u2019t, as it\u2019s easy to clip to your bed headboard and angle towards yourself to stay cool.<\/p>\n

Our tester has included this fan as they have purchased several over the years for themselves and others. The battery life is impressive, the top speed is gusty (if a smidge loud), and the flat base of the clip means it can also be stood on tables and other surfaces. The wide range of adjustability in the angle also makes it ideal for awkward spaces and corners, as it\u2019s super adjustable. It doesn\u2019t oscillate on its own, so it\u2019s worth knowing this is a static fan that you have to manually adjust (but it\u2019s very easy to do so).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
