I couldn’t live without my hot and cool fan. Truly, it’s one of those products that you think has a high outright cost, but once you unbox it and use it for a few days, you’ll soon realise that this price tag is completely worth it. I use mine every single day, winter or summer, day and night. Now, my model is from *another* big brand that doesn’t often discount its products, plus I’ve owned it for years, so it’s no longer available to buy. But, I spotted an updated (and highly-recommended version) on sale, with 50% off its usually large price tag. I just had to let you in on this hidden gem.
The Shark TurboBlade Cool + Heat is, quite honestly, one of the best space heaters out there for winter, and it’s also a great fan for the summertime heat, too. Even better? It’s wrapped in a neat package that’s sleek enough not to ruin your aesthetic, whilst being bladeless for the safety of pets and children.

This fan is ultra-customizable. You can set the temperature to the number you desire using its intuitive magnetic remote control. Blue means cold, red equals heat. Simple. It has 10 cooling speeds and 3 heat modes.
You can position this fan two ways: vertically or horizontally, depending on where you’d like its airflow to reach. If you’re in bed, you’ll want to flip it horizontally so that the cool breeze blankets your body as you snooze. Placing it in your living room? Pop it in a corner and flip it vertically; it will take up less space and blend with your room. And yes, it still oscillates whether it’s vertical or horizontal.

We delve more into the Shark TurboBlade Cool + Heat in our dedicated review, but after testing it in several different spaces, we concluded that it’s best suited for small-mid-sized, well-insulated rooms, and our reviewer, Cynthia, doesn’t recommend it for rooms larger than 400 square feet. She loved the versatility of this fan, while its design received top marks, even though it doesn’t benefit from app control, only remote control.
The nitty gritty
While this machine is corded, it benefits from a 10-foot-long wire so that you can place it wherever you please. It only weighs 21.5lbs, so moving it from one room to another isn’t that difficult, while it has a handle to help with this, too. Essentially, it’s the only fan you’ll ever buy for your home, as it’s all-season and works in any room. No more taking up precious table, nightstand, or dresser space — it sits on the floor and gets to work fast.
Good to know
It comes in two colorways — dove or charcoal. Sadly, only the charcoal is on sale right now at $199.99, but the dove shade is still cheap(er), at $249.99.
You’ll benefit from a 3-year guarantee when you purchase the Shark TurboBlade Cool + Heat.
