'I tried a fan at night to help my insomnia and I now sleep so much better'

Summer in the UK has been a bit of a mixed bag with a few sunny days here and there. But in recent times, and with a new season now here, the weather isn't exactly going to get better any time soon.

Yet, even amid the gloom, we've kept our trusty Dreo 28dB Silent Tower Fan beside us and now I can't nod off without it. As someone who's perpetually chilly, while my other half is forever hot, I wasn't exactly thrilled when the fan first spun into action. But in no time at all, I was feeling more chilled out than I'd imagined possible.

Despite the sun not hitting the 20C mark I was hoping for, the fan has been a game-changer for our sleep. For night owls like me who don't hit the hay when they probably should, you'll be familiar with the agony of flipping between being too hot and too cold, tossing and turning, only to be jolted awake by the dreaded alarm for work.

But sleeping in a warm room was my issue I think - and it could be yours too. According to Sleep Advisor, the sweet spot for adult slumber is between 15-19C, while little ones sleep best at a cosy 18-21C. They say cooler bedrooms are the ticket to quicker sleep because they help lower our core body temperature, which is key to falling asleep. “Cooler rooms promote sleep by dropping our core body temperature sooner, and a drop in body temperature coincides with bedtime. When we use fans and air conditioning, it cools the body down faster and promotes sleep,” says Dr Vintyala.

The Dreo Fan is 36-inch compact tower fan which is a lightweight device that can quickly circulate air in your living space at speeds of up to 7.3m/s. It comes with a variety of features that allow you to adjust the airflow and direction at the touch of a button, whether on the machine itself,
