One mother has raved about a B&Q fan that is 'so quiet you can barely hear it', making it great for light sleepers.
Overjoyed with her high-street buy, Haley Hollywood took to social media to share her rave review, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private Facebook group with 2.6 million members, Haley explained why she is obsessed with the GoodHome Grey 8" Pedestal fan.
The savvy mum beamed: 'If anyone needs a good fan, then I can't recommend this one from B&Q enough, it's amazing!
'Honestly 10x better than my Dyson one that cost a fortune!
'It has 12 settings, moves side to side and can move up and down.
'It has a sleep mode and comfort mode and is so quiet you can barely hear it!'
Not only this, but she also added: 'It's perfect for having at the bottom of the bed at night.
'I'm in love with it and a total bargain for £49.'
Haley later wrote: 'I brought it for my daughter and was so impressed I went back and got myself one.
B&M shopper rushes to buy energy-saving gadget scanning for £1 instead of £35
'It is really good, 100% recommend.
'I also forgot to add, this fan also has a nice light on it too, which is great for use at night.'
The GoodHome Grey 8" Pedestal fan, which is sold and shipped by B&Q is less than £50, which we think is a real steal.
According to the product listing, thanks to this affordable buy, you'll be able to ' beat the heat in style.'
It is designed to deliver a 'powerful breeze while seamlessly blending into any room ' and comes complete with a two year guarantee.
How to keep cool in hot weather
Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks. Here are three ways to keep cool according to the NHS...
Keep out of the heat if you can.
If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter.
Cool yourself down.
Have cold food and drinks, avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes.
Keep your living space cool.
Close windows during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees. Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep.
It has a sleek grey design and adjustable height, offering versatility and comfort.
Not only this, but it also has a 12 hour timer, auto 3D oscillation and a mood light setting.
As a result, B&Q bosses have claimed it makes 'the perfect choice for any space, whether at home or in the office.'
Bargain hunters beam
And Haley's post has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly racked up 279 likes and 344 comments.
Not only did many 'need' it, but others also shared their thoughts on the purse-friendly fan.
One person said: 'Thank you for posting this! I bought one yesterday and it is the best fan I've ever had.'
Another added: 'Need this.'
A third commented: 'I bought one of these. So good I had to go back and buy another.'
Meanwhile, someone else wrote: 'Thank you, my son is in the attic so you can imagine how hot it is up there. He's got a fan and an air conditioning unit which is rubbish so I'll try this.'

Get more quality TV for free By Jamie Harris, Assistant Technology and Science Reporter If you're tired of paying out on several streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ then there are a growing number of free alternatives around. While many of these alternatives have been filled with obscure content, more big names like Sky have got on board in recent years offering some quality stuff, which is largely archive but still entertaining. As well as UKTV, Sony and Channel 5 are among the other players getting involved. If you haven't already, give Pluto TV a go, it's available on pretty much all devices including Fire TV Sticks. On there you'll find channels from MTV, with Catfish and Geordie Shore. Some of the classics are real gems too - I found myself watching long-forgotten episodes of Sabrina the Teenage Witch the other day.

The ‘irresponsible' anti-dairy ad banned for causing distress
A vegan charity's advert, which depicted a baby being taken from its mother, has been banned by the Advertising Standards Authority. The 50-second spot from Viva! showed an ominous man taking a baby, telling the distressed mother, "You can't keep your baby because we want your milk." Viva! said the advert, titled "Scary Dairy", was intended to symbolise the unsettling process of dairy calves being separated from their mothers. The ASA deemed the advert "irresponsible" and "insensitive", particularly to those with experience of loss or trauma around parenthood. Watch the video in full above.
