When it comes to how I live, there are a few basic facts: I dwell in a small apartment and I am constantly “working on it.” Sometimes, this involves overhauling my entire organizational system. Other times, I’m overcome with the sudden desire to wallpaper the kitchen. I am constantly in a state of decorating, cleaning, rearranging, and generally improving. Lately, that’s involved a lot of tech and appliance upgrades to make my environment better and more serviceable, not just nice to look at.

One of the best things I’ve gotten my hands on is the Shark TurboBlade Cool + Heat, which is both a heater and a fan. I’m picky about both because I always want to be warmer and need a heater, but I also like the noise of a fan at night to fall asleep (while I’m safe from the cool air under my blanket). Having both in one has been awesome and, now that the device is $150 off ahead of Black Friday, you should consider getting one, too.

The Shark TurboBlade deal

First of all, I always want to be upfront when I’ve been given something by a company so I can review it. That’s what happened here. I don’t write a nice review if something stinks, though, so here I am, saying this thing is extremely useful.

Typically, the TurboBlade Cool + Heat is $400. That’s a lot, although it makes economic sense if you don’t want to spend a bunch of money on a good fan and a good heater separately. It also makes sense for someone like me in a little apartment. It’s frustrating to have to store two large devices when I could just have one. Still, the discount, which puts this at $250 for the shopping holiday, is much appreciated.

The fan

The TurboBlade Cool + Heat is bladeless and modern-looking, which I like. It’s also powerful. You can adjust it up to 10 levels of air-blasting, so you can get just a touch or a whole wind storm. I opt for a level-10 wind storm because I am especially interested in white noise at bedtime, but it comes with a convenient little remote so if it gets too loud or too airy, I don’t have to get up to adjust it. The heat option, which is easy to toggle on, has three modes. There’s a filter at the bottom that looks easy to clean, but I haven’t had to do that yet.

You can turn the vents horizontally or vertically, plus it can tilt and oscillate on its own. If you’re going to pay a few hundred bucks for something, it should do a few cool tricks, and this does. You can also dim the control panel, which I do because I like to sleep in pitch darkness.

Some tech specs: It has 1,400 watts, its air flow capacity is 1,180 cubic feet per minute, and its top speed is 10 RPM. It has a 120 voltage and weighs a little over 21 pounds. I am a simple person, so I don’t pay attention to any of those things except the weight. It doesn’t come put-together, so I foolishly assembled it in the middle of my entryway (which was perfectly easy to do and took me maybe five minutes), then had to haul it around, assembled and heavy, to place it where I wanted it. Is 21 pounds a ton of weight? No, but it was tricky for me to push it up the ladder into my lofted bedroom and I do wish I had assembled it in the room where I planned to use it. Just a word of advice.

What stores have the best sales on Black Friday?

Nowadays, both large retailers and small businesses compete for Black Friday shoppers, so you can expect practically every store to run sales through Monday, December 1, 2025. The “best” sales depend on your needs, but in general, the biggest discounts tend to come from larger retailers who can afford lower prices: think places like Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Home Depot. You can find all the best sales from major retailers on our live blog. 

Are Black Friday deals worth it?

In short, yes, Black Friday still offers discounts that can be rare throughout the rest of the year. If there’s something you want to buy, or you’re shopping for gifts, it’s a good time to look for discounts on what you need, especially tech sales, home improvement supplies, and fitness tech. Of course, if you need to save money, the best way to save is to not buy anything. 

Are Cyber Monday deals better than Black Friday?

Black Friday used to be bigger for major retailers and more expensive tech and appliances, while Cyber Monday was for cheaper tech and gave smaller businesses a chance to compete online. Nowadays, though, distinction is almost meaningless. Every major retailer will offer sales on both days, and the smart move is to know what you want, use price trackers or refer to guides like our live blog that use price trackers for you, and don’t stress over finding the perfect timing.
