Basking in the heat is one of life's greatest pleasures, but it can sometimes get a bit too much, leaving you desperate to cool down.
Fans are a great way to keep you cool, and are super cheap to run.
However, in extreme heat, sometimes they just don't cut it.
Landing in stores this Thursday, May 29, the Silvercrest Local Air Conditioner is bound to keep you super cool all summer long.
The handy gadget also works as a dehumidifier and ventilator and can be easily moved throughout the house thanks to its wheels and recessed side grips.
It also automatically oscillates, meaning your whole room will be cooled, and has two different fan speeds, depending on how much you need cooling down.
Priced at £149.00, the fan comes with a three-year warranty and has a 24-hour-digital timer function.
It is also £180 cheaper than the, which costs £329 from Curry's.
The Logik air conditioner has many similar features, such as the dehumidifier function, and portable wheels.
A description reads: "Struggling to sleep on a hot nights?

"With 425 m³/h airflow rate, this Logik portable air conditioner and dehumidifier helps cool down your room quickly.

The Lidl buy can be found in the Middle Aisle of the budget supermarket, as part of its weekly offers.
Every Thursday and Sunday, the bargain retailer launches a new range of limited products, from beauty buys to garden gadgets.
Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you've ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you'll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi's speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It's all part of Aldi's plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses 'shelf-ready' packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
However, you'll have to be quick if you want to snap up an air conditioner, as once they're gone, they're gone.
Also landing on shelves this week is the Silvercrest bladeless desk fan, which is priced at £29.99.
With summer fast approaching, users will be pleased to hear it has 10 different speeds which can cope with everything from mild heat to blazing sunshine.
The manufacturer says another benefit of the gadget is it's simplicity – no blades means it is very easy to clean.
There are other bonuses too – as it is bladeless, there is no risk of injury.
The fan also has an impressive LED display which allows the fan's speed settings and the timer to be easily visible at night or throughout the day.
