Cottages are usually free of central air conditioning. But that doesn’t mean you have to endure a summer-long shvitz.
Dyson has unveilled an elongated fan whose shape recalls Giacometti’s bendy sculptures. As for its power, it’s very good. Click the button at its base, and the Air Multiplier AM02 swiftly emits a strenuous, steady stream of air. (Avoid the highest setting, if you’ve just returned from the hair salon.)
The air is mysteriously delivered through a seam or holes or aliens, who knows, but the bladeless design makes it safe for both children and the family dog. Available at The Bay, Canadian Tire and other retailers in silver, pictured, or glossy white, at $399 for the 12-inch desktop model, to $549 for the 40-inch model.
Be sure to share the cool air at the cottage this weekend: Set it to oscillating.
