We may now be in autumn, but it looks like many of us might need to look for ways to cool down as certain parts of Scotland are due for another heatwave.
Since many of us don't have air con in our homes, one gadget we can invest in is a fan - and one popular model from Amazon that has been hailed as a "godsend" is on offer for 20 per cent less.
The Honeywell TurboForce Power Fan is proven to be so popular among shoppers that it has managed to rack up more than 16,000 five-star reviews, with some saying it has them "ditching their Dyson." Even better, the highly coveted fan is now on sale on Amazon from its original £29.99 to just £23.88.
The offer comes just as the MET Office confirmed that temperatures in Scotland could reach as high as 25C this week.
The lightweight portable fan comes complete with three speed settings, a 90° adjustable tilting head and uniquely engineered fan blades that provide quiet, powerful cooling that can be felt up to seven metres away.
One journalist from the Mirror, Bethan Shufflebotham, tested out the Honeywell TurboForce Power Fan for herself this summer and praised it for its quiet motor and ability to keep her cool in any room.
Testing out the small yet mighty fan during the height of the UK summer heatwave, the reporter in her review said that it was "perfect for living rooms and master bedrooms, as well as smaller spaces."
She wasn't the only one who the £24 fan has impressed recently, as thousands of Amazon shoppers have left it high praise, with some saying it is "better than Dyson."
