Dreo Tower Fan, 42 Inch Oscillating, Quiet DC Motor

This fan surprised me. I did not hear a sound at night on the lowest setting, it circulates the air perfectly and it’s a soft breeze. The handy remote is perfect, I could turn it up a few speeds if I wanted more of a breeze.

I have owned many fans, table style and floor and this is worth the money I paid. 100% happy with it.

When you think of a tower fan, you typically think it’s just a tall thin, more stylish fan that can’t compete airflow wise compared to a standard large noisy floor fan. This fan exceeded my expectations. It is a lot more powerful than any other tower fan I’ve come across and it’s relatively quiet even on its max setting compared to a traditional fan. But my favorite part is when you are sleeping you can put it at 6 or 7 for the fan speed and it’s whisper quiet and you still feel the fan. So if you don’t want to have to sacrifice quietness or the ability to feel the fan, you don’t have to. This fan definitely eliminates that issue. The fan is a smart fan, so you are able to customize the settings through the easy to use phone app. You can even link it to your Google account routines so it can auto turn on at a set time and turn off at a set time which is convenient for those who are on a sleep schedule. A few people have mentioned that the fan auto shuts off in the middle of the night? I know you can set an auto off timer through the app, but personally I’ve never experienced it. But that’s also why I have Google turn the fan on and off automatically so I don’t have to worry about it. If you want to be extra safe you can always turn the fan off before going to bed and turn it back on to reset the internal run time timer and you shouldn’t have any issues. Again, it’s never auto turned off on me unless I have it scheduled to do so. I purchased the gold version of the fan and I highly recommend dishing out the extra money because it adds a bit of style to the fan. But other than being aesthetically pleasing, there are no other additional benefits than the color. The fan has many different modes. Sleep mode makes the fan quieter, turbo makes the fan stronger than the normal speed, natural mode will make the speed fluctuate to give you an out door breeze feel… and normal mode is just normal. I’ve heard people mention that the fan is noisy or makes a rattle sound after a few uses.. im pretty confident they must’ve been aggressive with the fan or dropped it because I personally haven’t experienced any issues like that. One thing I want to mention though, the grill on the front, isn’t the entire size of the fans vent. The bottom area is where the motor is and so that portion of the grill has no air flow and its just part of the design. I set my fan on 9, which is pretty powerful and relatively quiet and I just place it next to my bed. It really helps with being able to lower the ac in the summer, especially where I live which is well over 100 degrees all summer long. I also set it on a box so it’s tall enough to where none of the fans vents are being blocked by the mattress. But it’s not necessary, the fan works fine at a further distance, I just personally enjoy a more cooler sleeping environment and wind blowing in my face. If you are someone who’s on the fence of buying this or a dyson fan… I was that person.. but for less than the cost of a dyson fan I bought the dreo tower fan and the air circulator fan for much less than a dyson fan and still saved enough money from the difference to be able to purchase the dreo hepa air purifier… and the dyson fan was weak and was very noisy, sounded like a blow dryer running all night. The only hard debate there is, do you buy the dreo circulator fan or the tower fan? Both do an excellent job and both are quiet. The key difference though is the design and the functionality. Do you want the most quietest fan that gives the right amount of power? Then get the tower fan. If you want extra power for those hotter than normal days and you don’t care about the quietness because you are rhe type who can sleep through a hurricane, then get the circulator fan. I am both of those people so I bought both and my electric company is thanking me because my bill has significantly dropped since using both. And one last thing to note, the circulator fan does have a feature in the app where you can guide the fan to a certain direction, you can move it with a virtual d pad to move it left, right, up or down. Which is a super convenient feature when you don’t want to constantly get up to manually move the fan, this feature is only available on the circulator fan, the tower fan does not give you that option. And if you don’t want to go through your Google settings to set a scheduled automation, the tower fan has the schedules on off feature on the app, but the circulator fan does not have that option! That is why I linked both fans to my Google routines and created a routine to turn them both on and off at a set time. And whatever speed setting and mode you left the fan at, is the setting it will be on when the fans turn back on. It’s nice that it saves those settings and you don’t have to reconfigure it every time you turn the fans on. I hope this extremely long review helped you decide which is best for you. 🙂

Iets groter dan verwacht, maar met een mooi design. Maakt net iets meer geluid dan verwacht, ik hoor hem vanaf stand 3, maar ik heb hem getest zonder verder omgevingsgeluid. Veel instelmogelijkheden wat goed is. Makkelijk bedienbaar met de meegeleverde afstandsbediening en gebruik van app.

This is a phenomal product! I use this fan every night and provides a ton of functionality though the app you can control the speed, oscillation, and desired temp to cool to. My favorite feature is having the ability to change the speed through the app remotely so you don’t have to get out of bed to adjust the settings.

The fan provides shockingly cold air and cools a room off quickly! Very quiet as well! I typically keep it around level 8/12 and keeps me cool at night as well as can function as a nice calming white noise. I would compare the noise level at 12 to a white noise machine for a toddler. Even then not overly distracting at all and when on oscillation mode there is no clicking or buzzing; just nice, smooth, cool air!

Setup is easy and the packaging is nice, neat, and secure.
