Amazon has cut £30 off the bestselling Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo Cordless Fan, which has been hailed as a 'godsend' during the UK heatwave. The fan, originally priced at £129.99, is now available for £99, offering a saving of £30.99. This price beats SharkNinja's own discounted price of £99.99.
Top-selling desk fan
The FlexBreeze HydroGo is currently the best-selling product in Amazon's Desk Fans category, with over 400 units sold in the past month. Its popularity stems from its portability, weighing under 2.1kg, and its ability to function both corded and cordless. This makes it ideal for moving between rooms, taking into the garden, or even bringing along on a picnic.
Cooling mist technology
When temperatures rise, users can activate Shark's HydroGo Evaporating Cooling technology, which produces a refreshing mist of ultra-fine water droplets that can reduce temperatures by 2°C. Shark claims this feature leaves no wet surfaces behind, making it suitable for indoor use. The fan also delivers powerful airflow up to 20 metres on its highest setting and is rain and UV resistant for outdoor use.
Battery life and noise level
When unplugged, the fan boasts a long-lasting battery that can run for up to 12 hours, depending on the speed selected. It operates quietly, causing minimal disturbance while sleeping or working from home.
Customer reviews
The Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo has garnered a 4.6-star rating from over 750 reviews on Amazon. One reviewer commented: 'This kept me cool through the night, and the misting feature adds an extra cooling sensation, which helped me sleep instead of tossing and turning. It's quiet enough to sleep, very easy to move around and small enough not to take up too much space.'
Another customer highlighted: 'This has been a godsend over the last bout of hot weather. The fan is built well, light and can really put out some power. The battery lasts longer than expected.' However, they noted: 'The water tank isn't as big as I would have liked, but I'm just picking at this point.'
A third five-star reviewer said: 'This is the best fan I've had. It's very quiet with different speeds and a mist element. I could have this on in the bedroom without disturbance. Great value for money.'
