Shark
FlexBreeze HydroGo Portable Misting Fan
Prime Day is always a great time to stock up on summer gear for next year that gave you FOMO this year. Perhaps things like this portable, rechargeable misting fan with a refillable tank, for which ads have been all over my social media for the past few months. Shark claims it can run for 30 minutes with the mist consistently on, or for 60 minutes with it in “interval mode,” and when I tested it this summer, I found that mostly to be true. You have to be pretty close to the mister to feel it, like sitting with it on a desk or a table, but if that’s not a deal-breaker, this is a great price on a supremely versatile summer staple. It appears that only the dark-green, limited-edition Spruce colorway is currently priced this low. Not only do I personally think this is the best color anyway, but it also comes with a car charger for travel, which many of the other colors don’t.
