Review: This stylish desk fan is a must for your home office

It's been tough getting used to remote learning for most of us, so let's look at making it more comfortable.

Russell Hobbs are amongst brands which have saw the obvious huge flux of remote learners, and their latest home range features super stylish new home decor additions.

The Scandi cooling range is not only perfect for cooling your work space but also adding style to your home.

Their new range of fans are multifunctional and can also be used at night to secure an uninterrupted night’s sleep.

I was lucky enough to give one of the styles a go, the Scandi desk fan in grey and wood is £44.99.

Whether this product is hard to assemble or if this is just a reflection of my DIY skills, I struggled a little putting the pieces together.

Each component of the fan comes packaged separately, forcing you to put your building skills to good use - and I'm just not the best in these situations.

So a job that should have only took me a couple of minutes took me half an hour, which on a night of sweltering heat in bed I wasn't best pleased with.

Anyway, fast forward to now using it at my work desk at home and moving it up to my bedroom on particularly hot night... I'm a big fan (pardon the pun).

There are other fans featured on the Russell Hobbs website including a taller version the 16" Scandi Pedestal Fan in Grey and Wood Effect which is reduced to £59.99 from £69.99.

You can pick up other similar products on the likes of Amazon and Argos pages for cheaper, but will you get the same quality or modern design? Probably not.
