Dreo Smart Tower Fan, 28dB Silent Standing Fans for Bedroom, 25ft/s Velocity Electric Cooling Fan, 90° Oscillating Floor Bladeless Fans, Wifi/Alexa Remote Control, 4 Speeds/4Modes/8H Timer, Black

The media could not be loaded. If you can't remember last year... It was hot. What also happened was:1) Fans of all types frequently went out of stock2) Due to the high demand, prices of fans subsequently increasedSo, do yourself a favour and get ahead of the curve. We've had a few nice days in May and with any luck, there'll be a lot more of then in June, July and August - so act now before all the good fans go out of stock or increase in price.----------------------------THE REVIEW----------------------------Review wise, I've done my first video review for Amazon because this fan is just so good. I have zero affiliation with Dreo, I'm not part of Amazon Vine, and I bought it using my own hard earned money - so a fully honest review, my soul hasn't been sold.----------------------------THE REMOTE CONTROL----------------------------It's light, but solid. The buttons have a rubbery feel to them and the rest of the body is a matt plastic that isn't a fingerprint magnet and feels good to hold. On the control you have on/off, speed + or -, mode, volume (ie, get audio feedback when you change a setting or fully mute it), oscilation and finally - a timer button. As far as controllers go (and that's in general, not just for a fan), this is a surprisingly good quality, feels good, and is very functional.----------------------------THE FAN ITSELF----------------------------Honestly, it's great - and that's an understatement. Compared to my Honeywell HO-5500 tower fan (still sold by Amazon for £85, currently) it's no contest. The Dreo Nomad One S pushes more air, it's quieter, looks better, has more features - and most importantly, the LED's/Display turns off which instantly makes it a suitable bedside fan.You have multiple modes including an auto, normal, natural and sleep mode. You can turn on/off the oscilation, you can set it to automatically choose the best speed based on the temperature (yes, it knows!), you can choose from 4 speed settings, set a timer up to 8 hours, and most importantly - it's fully compatible with Google and Alexa voice assistants. Everything you can do on the unit itself or the controller, you can do via Google/Alexa.As you can see in the video, my Google hates my Scottish accent but I need to stress the functionality works and Google throwing a hissy fit is my/Google's problem and the fan can take zero blame there. Fan commands = good. Google Assistant = hates Scottish accent.Another big pro for me is that the rear grill and impeller wheel can be removed from the unit so you can de-dust it. On my Honeywell fan, none of it comes apart so you're either manually dusting it and getting the dust everywhere, or you're adding the brush attachment to your vacuum hose to suck it all up... But having those pieces be removable is just a much more elegant solution.----------------------------THE POTENTIAL CON'S----------------------------So, these may or not be con's and it entirely depends on your needs and use cases, but some aspects that may potentially be a problem for you are:1) The cable length isn't that long - around 1.5 meters I suspect2) Most fans have 3-4 speed settings but the fancier ones have more. This is a 4 speed setting unit so if you'd like more 'steps' between wind speed then this may not be for you3) This is a 36" tower fan. For beside a bed or sitting on a couch, it's likely perfect but if you're using it for working from a desk at home, the wind won't be hitting you from the shoulders and above, so you'll want to prop it up to add more height, or look at one of the other Dreo fans. The Dreo Cruiser Pro T1, Pilot Pro and Pilot Max are all 42", for example

This is a proper fan, well designed and built. It's powerful and quiet at the same time and the features are very nice you can mute the beeps, turn off the display, check temperature on the app and works great with Alexa. It's definitely worth the money.

While moving into a new house I had decided 'You know what. I would like a new fan' with summer around the corner and memories of the scorching 40 degree day we had a few years back I had decided to go for this.I like this fan, very much. The version I purchased came with phone app connectivity which works... Most of the time. The fan itself is quiet, sleek and easy to build onto the base, the build quality itself feels decent, not perfect but decent. It has a timer mode which I have used occasionally and it seems to work well if I set it to turn off after X hours. The power itself is decent as well, not the most blowy I've ever experienced but perfect for cooling a room.

Nice fan with remote control but not much better than a much cheaper one I bought
