The new cooler fan-base
Posted Oct 13, 2009
The clever (cynics would say marketing) point about Dyson’s inventions is that they tend to be objects that one doesn’t automatically think one needs- I’ve never thought, ‘oh, I must go out and buy a bag-less vacuum’, or in this case ‘an oscillating fan’. However the more you discover about the inventions, the more the credit card trembles and before you know you’re ordering one for each family member and boring the office.
The new Dyson Blade, out today at dyson.com is available in two sizes 10-inch and 12-inch. An ecological alternative to air-conditioning, the fan is bladeless thus giving its user a different quality of airflow rather than blocks of air made by blades.
We believe you Mr. Dyson, we really do.
