Dyson launches bladeless desk fan with brand-new sleep mode function
Leading tech brand Dyson has launched a new desk fan in time for summer. The Cool CF1 desk fan is priced at £249.99 and has been designed with a new sleep mode feature, ideal for users who have difficulty sleeping during heatwaves.
Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan promises relief from heat in as little as five seconds. The bladeless fan aims to deliver quiet motion even when it is on full power, so users who have it on while they work will not be distracted by any noise.
The bladeless design also makes it safe for a family home, as it can be left unattended around children or pets - unlike bladed fans, which may pose a safety hazard. It also has a night mode function, which lets out 'whisper-quiet' air so that users can stay cool and not be interrupted by noise while sleeping.
Dyson says it has a range of oscillation angles and manual tilt. Plus, it delivers an airflow of 370 litres per second, with no 'choppy air'. Thanks to its simplistic design, Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan is also easy to clean, as it doesn't have any grilles to remove or dusty blades. To clean, Dyson recommends wiping the loop amplifier with a cloth.
Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan is at the higher end of the market price-wise, which can be a potential drawback for hopeful customers. There are cheaper alternatives on the market, including a Russell Hobbs Bladeless Tower desk fan at a more affordable price of £29.99.
The cooling system has three modes, including breeze and blast functions for very hot days. The black fan also has built-in ambient lighting, and connects via USB - plug into a laptop, using the included USB Type-C cable, to charge it.
Pro Breeze is another leading brand for fans and cooling devices, and a large number of its products are sold on Amazon, including this Desktop Mini Tower Fan. At 13-inches it costs £28.04 (down from £34.99), and has three speeds, automatic oscillation, and a quiet cooling mode.
Because Dyson's Cool CF1 desk fan has just been launched, there are no reviews available for the product. However, potential shoppers can find many general reviews of Dyson's customer service on Trustpilot.
One Dyson vacuum owner called about an issue with their device, writing: "Had reason to speak to Dyson customer support today as problem with cordless vacuum, spoke to very helpful chap called Arris, who resolved my issue in a matter of minutes and arranged for replacement part under warranty. Working in customer service myself, we can all take a leaf out of this guy's book. Top class service, no fuss, just sorted the problem."
However, another shopper wasn't as pleased with their customer service experience. They said: "Love my Dyson, but the customer service was disappointing.
"My next day delivery never arrived and I wasn't informed or apologised to. A quick glance at reviews shows this seems to be a common issue."
But another left a glowing review. They said "Fantastic products and the best customer service I've ever experienced. Worth every penny."
