their daily lives in this extreme summer weather, but if you're a freak for the heat, well, props to you.

Since it's Amazon Prime Day, everyone has been racing to try and get their hands on the best fans before the online retailer is completely ransacked,
but we've just spotted this fan and air conditioner hybrid (it's more of an air cooler) for less than 100, and it's quite a steal if you ask me.

One of the few remaining air coolers on Amazon is the Midea 5L 3-in-1
Portable Air Conditioner, an evaporative air cooler that's now at 89.99 from 93.49 . While we haven't had the chance to test it out yet, there's no
denying that this is an affordable price point for most people who are searching for the key to cooling their home. But in spite of its undoubtedly handy features, there's something you should know before you add it to your basket. Today's best Midea 5L Air Cooler deal Midea 5L Air Cooler: was
93.49 now 89.99 at Amazon This is more than a standard oscillating fan, it uses water to project a cold breeze into a humid room which, given this heat, sounds like a dream on paper. And it's not too expensive either compared to the likes of the premium range of Dyson fans, which are well into the triple figures. View Deal Price aside, the Midea 3-in-1 fan does come with some functional perks, the main ones being its fan, humidifier, and cooling settings, giving you a variety of options depending on your need.

Its large 5-litre tank is a plentiful, and when it's filled to the top, you can make the most of its air-cooling properties for up to 12 hours each day before refilling, so that way, you're not constantly patrolling back and
forth to fill it up. You can also choose from three speeds and two operation modes, normal and natural, to adjust the air flow to your comfort.

Sounds great for its price point right? And it is, but the only caveat is
that it adds moisture to your air which, when it gets quite humid in the summer months, can make the air feel even hotter. Therefore, the more
moisture added to the air in your home, the more moisture in the air the heat has to work with.

In short, evaporative air coolers like this one will solve your issues in dry heat, but as for humid heat (which it currently is in the UK), the results
may not be the same. If this has swayed you in the opposite direction, here's an alternative dehumidifier we've selected below. Honeywell 20-litre Dehumidifier : was 179.99 now 148.70 at Amazon We haven't had the chance to test this one out yet, but we've had plenty of hands-on experience with Honeywell's range of other home tech and we've been pleased each time. This model comes with a 3.4-litre water tank and custom humidity controls levels, as well as a smart mode that can automatically adjust dehumidification. And it's not going to make an absolute racket while in use either, it produces sounds up to 44db. View Deal More Prime Day deals in the UK Amazon Prime :
