Now that we had the hottest May day on record, I’m thinking about investing in this Best fans And Portable air conditioners Sooner than I expected. But luckily for me (and maybe you too), Aldi is dropping a helpful range of cooling products on Thursday (May 28).

If you are wondering what Misting fans are worth itThe Ideal Home editors certainly think so. From Mr Fan to viral in the hands of Aldi Shark Flexbreeze HydrogoThis is clever fans How to copy Air conditioner works.
Misting fans actively cool the air instead of just moving it, making it more effective than a standard fan. By combining airflow with a very fine spray of water, misting fans work when water droplets hit warm air, causing it to evaporate, cooling the surrounding air. This is a process called evaporative cooling.
Plus, the fine mist can also have a cooling effect on your skin – perfect for when you’re hot on the go or using public transport.
While Aldi’s Ambiano Misting Fan is not as sophisticated as the above Shark model, or their latest ChillpillI was immediately intrigued by the Aldi Mr. Fan.

At just £2.99, Aldi’s Mr Fan is easily the cheapest I’ve come across. Quite simply, a fan attached to a spray bottle, this fan is both compact and lightweight. Aldi claims it’s ‘refreshingly effective’, and I agree you may get some short-term relief.
All you have to do is fill the 350ml tank with cold water, turn on the fan and squeeze the lever to enjoy the cooling mist. The fan also comes with a screwdriver and battery to get you set up in no time, and you can choose from blue, green, purple or pink colorways.
Now, I don’t think this Mr. Fan will magically cool your house, but I can see it being a great pick me up on the go. When I go to Ideal Home HQ, my commute involves sweaty, overcrowded trains and a small, handheld mister fan, like this one, that would be amazing in the summer months.
