Our Favorite Fans Are on Sale to Help With Summer Heat Waves (2026)
We’re still in the dog days of summer—keep your cool with deals on the best fans we’ve tested for on the go and at home.
Fans are on sale to combat the impending heat waves of summer. WIRED highlights three top fans for their cooling capabilities and affordability.
The Diveblues Portable Handheld Fan is discounted to $15, which is $5 less than its usual price. This versatile fan can be clipped to a bag, stood up on a desk, or worn around the neck. Editor Kat Merck appreciates its digital display for battery monitoring. Its head can generate a strong breeze to provide actual cooling.
The Dreo TurboPoly Fan 508S, priced at $117 (originally $132), is WIRED's best-selling pedestal fan. It features an RGB light ring for mood lighting, and operates quietly but powerfully with nine speeds and three control methods: remote, smartphone app, or voice assistants. It also oscillates vertically, not just horizontally. Though the discount is modest, this fan almost never goes on sale.
The Levoit Windi Pro Mini Portable Tower Fan is the top pick of WIRED's editor Kat Merck, with its widespread use this year. Standing at 15 inches, it's portable and can accompany users to various locations. Its features include oscillation, various timer options, and USB-C docking for charging. While recharge without the dock would be ideal, this fan remains a worthy purchase at its current price, which is $30 less than its usual cost.
