The British technology firm Dyson is well-known in the industry. The company offers a range of iconic items, from vacuum cleaners to air purifiers, hair-care tools, and personal audio gear. However, Dyson’s newest device stands out as the most peculiar product released by the company. Indeed, some believe it resembles something that would belong in the “Dune” franchise or another sci-fi realm.
Named HushJet Mini Cool, this product is also the most affordable from Dyson, retailing at $99. Remarkably, the HushJet Mini Cool has already sold out as of this moment, within just a week of its official debut. Additional stock is expected to arrive in the future, alongside new color variations.
As the name suggests, the HushJet Mini Cool is intended to be a portable device that keeps the user comfortably cool while maintaining minimal noise. This is precisely its function. It serves as the modern iteration of a handheld fan similar to those seen in historical films. Unlike those old devices, which required the user to manually oscillate them during sweltering summer days for relief, the HushJet Mini Cool is equipped with advanced technology that enables it to provide airflow for several hours on a single charge. This is particularly advantageous as the hot summer months approach in a few weeks.
What capabilities does the Dyson HushJet Mini Cool possess?
It’s fairly straightforward to deduce what a device named HushJet Mini Cool is designed to do if you’re familiar with its title. However, if you encounter the gadget in stores lacking a label or branding, you might find it challenging to envision it as a portable fan. The product lacks visible blades, distinguishing it from conventional portable fans available in retail. Instead, it incorporates a HushJet nozzle and a honeycomb mesh on top. Dyson indicates these features aim to enhance airflow while minimizing noise, which is likely what consumers desire from such a device.
Dyson claims that the technology behind the HushJet Mini Cool has taken 17 years to develop. The unit is powered by a brushless motor that spins at 65,000 RPM, sufficient to propel air towards you at velocities reaching 25 m/s or 55 mph. The user has access to five adjustable speeds, including a Boost mode. The latter operates at the loudest level, measuring 72.5 dBA, while the HushJet Mini Cool operates most quietly on the lowest speed (52 dBA).
The HushJet Mini Cool is equipped with a 5,000 mAh battery that can be recharged using the same USB-C cable utilized for the iPhone 17 or an Android device. Full recharging requires three hours, providing up to six hours of operational use—plenty to endure through the hottest parts of the day.
When will the HushJet Mini Cool be restocked?
The portable Dyson unit weighs 212 grams (7.5 oz) and features a diameter of 38 mm (1.5 inches). This measurement is prominently highlighted in Dyson’s promotional materials for the product. The company asserts it is comparable in size to a wristwatch, but more importantly, it aligns with dimensions they’ve previously utilized for other air-moving products: the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer and the newly introduced Dyson PencilVac vacuum.
The HushJet Mini Cool commenced sales in April in a Stone/Blush (soft white) color, which is currently sold out. A Carnelian/Sky (red) variant is expected to be available in May, per the company’s statements. In June, the Ink/Cobalt (blue) edition will be released. While Dyson has not specified exact release dates for these new color options, this timeline suggests that the $99 accessory will be back in stock shortly, with at least a few color choices.
Additionally, Dyson plans to offer various accessories for the device, including lanyards, charging stations, and cables. The company also intends to introduce other enhancements, such as a universal mount and a grip (for bags and jackets), anticipated to be available this summer.
