Are Cheap Portable Coolers Good?
They’re great – especially if you don’t have access to an air conditioner. Even if you do, coupling an air conditioner with a budget-friendly fan is a fantastic way to circulate icy air and boost energy efficiency for bill-time savings. Plus, there are budget and mid-range portable coolers that boast the latest technology, so you get more for your money.
“Even the most affordable fans and coolers in our range offer handy features like remote-controlled cooling, automatic timers, high speed settings and sleek designs,” says Scott Bazley, The Good Guys Buyer – Seasonal.
Who Makes The Best Cheap Portable Fans?
Whether you’re after a pedestal fan, tower fan, floor fan or even desk fan, there are budget-savvy options to help you cool off in any room of the house. Look to brands like De'Longhi, EWT, and Dimplex for price tags that won’t have you sweating.
“Narrow tower fans are space-savers in small bedrooms and even budget models come with remotes, so you can flick them off and on without dragging yourself out of bed,” says Scott.
“And you just can’t beat a classic pedestal fan. Look for one that oscillates and is height adjustable – you can get both in a budget model – and you’ve got yourself an affordable, versatile, go-anywhere cooling solution.”
