My review on the Shark ChillPill and Duux Whisper Flex 2

The cooling plate provides targeted cooling, which I found really effective against bug bites

The cooling plate provides targeted cooling, which I found really effective against bug bites

To put it frankly, after only spending 30 minutes on a packed Central line train in rush hour during the May heatwave, I realised I needed an on-the-go solution to the heat. 

Enter the Shark ChillPill. Available in an impressive range of colours, I was instantly drawn to the Dragonfruit shade - a fun, hot pink one that's sure not to get lost in my bag. The InstaChill Cooling Plate helps provide targeted, instant cooling - and it even helped alleviate the itchiness from bug bites.  

The fan has pretty powerful speeds which are a life-saver on my commutes, and the misting feature is something that I'm really loving while sitting outside on hot days. The mist is also so fine that you can use it indoors.

The Duux Whisper Flex 2 has quickly become my favourite fan, thanks the adjustable height, quiet noise, and strength of the wind speed

When it comes to keeping cool indoors, the Duux Whisper Flex 2 has completely won me over. I can honestly say I don't see myself buying another fan. Unlike so many models that just seem to circulate warm air, this one genuinely cools the room - sometimes so well that I actually find myself reaching for a blanket.

With 26 speed settings, from a gentle breeze to a seriously powerful airflow, it's more than capable of cooling an entire room. My favourite feature, though, is the natural breeze mode. It mimics the feeling of an outdoor breeze, making it easy to imagine I'm relaxing on a beach somewhere, and it's soothing enough to help me drift off to sleep.

At around £149 for the Duux Whisper Flex 2, it's not a cheap fan - but it was worth every penny. And everyone I've convinced to buy this fan has said the same.  

If you're after something that will make commuting a little less sweaty, the Shark ChillPill is sure to help. This genius handheld fan, which unsurprisingly sold out during the recent Amazon Prime Day, has three ways to cool you down (high-speed fan, cooling plate and misting head) - it's no-brainer.  

Looking for something powerful, yet budget-friendly? This one from Russell Hobbs is a must-buy - with 90-degree oscillation and the perfect size for a bedside table or desk, you're sure to beat the heat. 

So whether you're looking to cool down your bedroom to finally get a good nights sleep, the home office to help you focus, or just to help cool down your pets, Amazon is sure to have some fans to help you avoid the heat this summer.
