Roberts SolarDAB Radio – Pink

As well as being stylish, sleek and compact, in good conditions the integrated solar panel can generate sufficient power to charge the batteries and power the radio. To monitor the power level being generated and consumed, there is a handy ‘level indicator’ on the display screen.

Once the rechargeable batteries have received a full charge via sunlight, solarDAB’s low power consumption allows the battery to power the radio for up to 27 hours. During this time, you can use your radio away from sunlight or mains electricity until further recharging is required. Should sufficient sunlight not be available when the radio is needed, you can always recharge the batteries via the supplied mains adapter.

Due to its large battery capacity and compact style, the solarDAB radio is ideal for use in gardens, on windowsills, in greenhouses, or even further afield while camping, travelling, or on holiday.

To add to the solarDAB’s eco-friendly credentials, it is packaged using cardboard produced from recycled waste paper.

Jepara Chair

A stunning addition to any home, this contemporary chair design features banana fibre woven onto a sturdy wooden frame. Five feather-filled cushions complete the design, literally supporting and hugging you in whatever position you adopt. The rich colours of the weaving material are beautifully offset by the paler fabrics of the cushions, making a pleasing addition to any living space.

Dyson Air Multiplier – Bladeless Fan

Feel the difference with the Dyson Air Multiplier Fan.

Unlike any other desk fan, the Dyson Air Multiplier works with a unique bladeless design, high energy efficiency and sports an uber stylish profile. Dyson’s Air Multiplier technology draws in air and amplifies it 15 times to form a smooth, uninterrupted stream to cool and refresh you.

Drawing air in at the bottom of the fan using an energy efficient brushless motor, the Air Multiplier then expels it through a 1.3mm wide slot, creating a cone of amplified, invigorating air, up to 119 gallons every second. With its iconic shape and advanced technology, the Dyson Air Multiplier trumps the conventional fan on so many levels, making it the safer, healthier, easier, eco-friendlier and perhaps the most refreshing fan available:

Safety: With its bladeless design, Dyson present a harmless desktop cooling device, allowing you to put your hands, objects and even your head through the circular hole safely, just because you can!

Health: It attracts less dust than conventional fans, is easier to clean and stands as a strong benefactor to creating a healthier living and working environment.

Features: Rather than having a finite number of strength settings as a conventional fan does, the Air Multiplier is fully controllable using a dimmer switch and can be set to oscillate smoothly from side to side. It’s also possible to tilt the fan to the appropriate angle.

Energy-Efficiency: Whilst powered by electricity, the Dyson Air Multiplier is designed in such a way as to naturally draw in extra air from behind and around the machine through processes known as inducement and entrainment, optimising its cooling efficiency.
