Europe’s heatwaves are pushing attention toward consumer cooling devices that range from misting room fans to wearable air conditioners.
Dreo’s TurboCool misting fans stood out for actually lowering room temperatures—by up to about 15.5C for a £199.99 tower model and 2.5C for a £99.99 mini version.
Portable options include Dyson’s €99 Husjet Mini Cool handheld fan, which claims airflow of up to 25 m/s and six hours of battery life, and JisuLife’s neck fan with five speeds and up to 16 hours per charge.
Sony’s Reon Pocket Pro, released in May, targets body cooling from the base of the neck using sensors and an algorithm, runs for 15 hours, and costs $259.99.
The roundup underscores how heat-driven demand is broadening beyond standard fans toward higher-priced personal cooling gadgets designed for both home and outdoor use.
