Shoppers say 'game-changer' misting fan is ideal for 'allergies and hay fever sufferers'

The oscillating tower fan has three speeds and spray levels, with options such as normal, natural, or sleep mode to choose from. Its 'ultrasonic atomization technology' works to evaporate heat, while the water spray function cools and cleans the air.

For smaller options, Amazon sells a handheld mister fan for £15.29 (usually £17.99). The portable airer has a mini water tank inside the handle and is rechargeable. It is ideal for taking to work, family/friends days out or even on holiday.

At the top end of the market is Shark's FlexBreeze Pro Mist Indoor & Outdoor Fan, which is currently on sale for £219.99, usually £249.99. The device has a range of up to 20 meters, with both mist and dry mode functions.

Prospective buyers of the HOMCOM Spray Misting Fan can find reviews and ratings of the device on Amazon. One user described it as a 'brilliant fan', before adding: "I suffer from hay fever and allergies and this fan has been a game changer.

"The mist catches all the particles and the air is much cleaner and fresher. Would recommend to anyone with health issues and remote makes it easy to use."

Another customer said: "Fantastic item, does the job. Love the misting function, I might purchase another for downstairs."

One Amazon buyer was not as pleased, saying: "The plastic strip that secures the front and rear fan grille is difficult to fit, also the securing hardware was missing. The mist generated is small, far smaller than the advertisement and does not cool any more than a conventional fan of a similar size."

An additional person wrote: "It was easy to move around and brilliant at keeping you cool." A fifth buyer concludes: "Excellent product. Does what it says, would recommend this."

Meanwhile, customers new to Yimbly can find reviews and ratings of its general customer service and quality on Trustpilot. One person said: "Excellent prices, quick delivery. I have never bought from here before, but I would definitely buy from here again."

However, some shoppers noted delivery had been 'slow. With one person stating: "Easy ordering but slow on delivery, hence 4 stars. All round well worth recommending."

While another reviewer concluded: "Excellent product, easy to put together, and customer service was amazing."
