continue. If you're in the market for one of the best fans to help you beat the heat, I have some suggestions for you. I spent two years writing about fans for TechRadar, and this year's crop of air-movers is especially strong. There are plenty of innovative designs to explore, alongside tried-and-tested options if you'd prefer to stick with what you know.

On the mini-fan front, two new-to-the-market options are the Shark ChillPill and HushJet Mini Cool . The ChillPill looks like a pair of binoculars, with different heads to switch between a fan, mister, and ultra-refreshing cooling plate. The Mini Cool is Dyson 's compact cooling option, shrinking down the brand's fan expertise into a handheld form that can be slung around your neck on hot days. For something that's still portable but a little less dinky, the updated Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo, and Dreo TurboCool 516S are top tabletop options. The former has a handle so you can easily carry it out and about;
the latter is app-connected for remote control. Both have misting
capabilities to really help take the temperature down.

If you're seeking whole-room cooling, look for a pedestal or tower fan. The Duux Whisper 3 and Sefte Pro featured here can both extend or retract to operate at different heights, to suit different situations. At TechRadar, we're also big fans of the unusual Shark TurboBlade , with its windmill-like arrangement of air-blasting arms. That one's completely sold out, so I've included Dimplex's version below (sorry, Shark).
