With the UK set to heat up over the next few weeks and highs of 30 degrees forecasted for Sunday, it comes as no surprise hundreds of shoppers are snapping up the Amazon Basics Oscillating Pedestal Fan, which is just £63.99.

A great solution to help you survive the high summer temperatures, the Amazon Basics Oscillating Pedestal Fan can cool down any small room quickly and quietly, day or night, thanks to its wide oscillation and ‘whisper-quiet’ 12 speed settings.

Over 900 Amazon shoppers can attest to its efficiency, giving it a perfect five-star rating, with several reviewers noting that it’s ‘really quiet on the low settings’ and ‘provides powerful air circulation and a cool breeze’.

One customer even claimed it’s the ‘best fan so far I have ever used in 10 years’. And numerous reviewers rate the fan so highly they’ve bought additional ones to place around their homes.

‘WOW! what can I say?!’ one five-star reviewer wrote. ‘I brought two of these fans thinking it’s not going to be powerful, and one fan won’t be enough! How wrong was I? Omg, it’s so powerful my feet are freezing cold. You don’t even need to put it on high.

‘Medium setting is more than enough to keep you and your room cool and fresh. Brilliant value for money, very easy to assemble the foot stand more importantly, fast delivery. I would definitely recommend.’

‘With it being branded as “basic”, I was expecting just a cheap fan, but it was surprisingly really good,’ commented another reviewer. ‘Reasonably quiet and quite powerful. It was enough to stop my attic room from becoming unbearably hot.’

A third raved: ‘This is the best fan I have ever bought. It looks very stylish and is easy to assemble, even for me as a disabled person. The instructions are easy to read and follow.

Its patented dual-blade design allows this fan to generate up to 15 per cent more air than other models, offering exceptional cooling and circulation.

The number one bestselling fan has wide oscillation, three modes, 'whisper-quiet' 12 speed settings and a remote

‘The different modes are great, sleep mode was so quiet it stayed on all night, and I slept all night. Fantastic fan at a very reasonable price. I’m going to get more for the other bedrooms I like it so much.’

Whether you need to cool down quickly on a hot summer’s day or simply get some extra air circulating on warmer nights, the Amazon Basics Oscillating Pedestal Fan is designed with three modes (nature, sleep, normal) and has a built-in 18-hour timer for set-and-forget comfort.

But best of all, its patented dual-blade design allows this fan to generate up to 15 per cent more air than other models, offering exceptional cooling and circulation.

It also comes with a handy remote to control mode, speed and oscillation, and a timer, so you don’t even need to get up to turn it on.
