Amazon shoppers love fan 'powerful enough to cool you on hottest of nights'

After a sunny start to May, many Brits will be looking forward to summer. From the return of ice cream trucks to trips to the beach, there's lots to get excited about. However, others will dread the sleepless nights associated with the peak of the season.

Thankfully, Amazon shoppers think they might have found a £60 solution. Shoppers are full of praise for an complete with a sleep mode. is priced at just under £60. There's also apriced at just over £73. Together, the fans have accumulated over 2,000 ratings with an average score of 4.6/5.

The product description for the states: "Assemble in minutes. No tools needed. 3 speed fan with 3 modes: nature, sleep and normal. With 7.5-hour timer. With patented dual-blade design to generate up to 15% more air than conventional single blade fans."

It is very popular with reviewers. One pleased shopper wrote: "I was sceptical at first because it's from Amazon Basics, but this fan is anything but basic!" They added: "It’s powerful enough to cool down even the hottest nights, and the adjustable speed settings let me customise it to just the right breeze. The design is sleek, and it doesn’t take up much space, so it’s perfect for my bedroom.

"Whether it's summer or just a particularly warm evening, this fan is a total game changer. It runs quietly too, so I can sleep through the night without being disturbed. If you’re looking for a fan that gets the job done and then some, this one exceeds expectations."

Another shopper claimed: "I have repeatedly bought expensive fans in the hope they would last longer, or be quieter etc. every time they have not lasted a year at best, this includes Honeywell and ProBreeze, which it’s impossible to get replacement parts for, so this time I opted for Amazon basics, and I have to say it is powerful, quiet and has a remote that includes oscillating.

"You can’t ask for more in a fan and it’s half the price. It also looks great too. The only slight niggle is that the remote doesn’t have a long distance, you need to be close to use it. I use it in my bedroom and the remote is sufficient in there so I have no issue. Don’t pay £70 or £80 for a fan that is half as good as this one!"

However, a less impressed response read: "This fan is just simply too loud. Now it will keep you cool no doubt but it is really loud and distracting and just not enjoyable to have in the background either during the day or at night.

"The different 'modes' are a joke as well - the nature mode oscillates between really fast and really slow and doesn't feel natural at all. The 'night' mode however is the real disappointment. It is exactly the same as the 'nature' mode! It oscillates between really fast and really slow! That makes it incredibly annoying and loud at night and impossible to sleep to."

Someone else wrote: "If you check other people review, there are many people also said the same thing, the sleep mode doesn’t work. The sleep mode suppose to be really quiet, but it function like natural mode, sometime strong, sometime weaker. I want to return it as it is very loud at night."
