Dreo Tower Fan for Bedroom, 42 Inch 120° Oscillating Fan, 25dB Quiet DC Motor, 28ft/s Velocity Bladeless Standing Fan with 12 Speeds, 4 Modes, 12H Timer Cooling Fans for Home, Living Room, Pilot Max S

The media could not be loaded. Summers are sometimes unbearable. They mark the beginning of very high temperatures during day and night. It makes the perfect time to draw out the fans to help reduce the temperatures, especially in sunny areas like Oklahoma, where you can get a good amount of sun without getting roasted if you have an excellent cooling companion. Previously, most fans I used were noisy, which can be annoying, especially when you want to focus on work or sleep. However, this changed after buying the Dreo Pilot Max tower fan, which is essentially noiseless. I got to use it in every part of the house, including the bedroom, even while the baby was asleep. It makes no sound whatsoever; I was curious how quiet it was compared to my previous fan, then I found out that the noise level on this floor fan reached 25 dB! Nowhere near my other fans with noise levels of 54 dB+.If you want to work your way to a fresh summer, you’ll not be disappointed with this purchase. During these hot days, as I am working in my home office, I could barely function for 6 hours straight before changing a T-shirt, vest, or getting something to cool me down. I would always waste much time because of this, which turned out to affect my family time. Pilot max allowed me to make up for so much wasted time. With it in my office, I could get things done without uncomfortable distractions, even not moving from my chair for hours at a time. I forgot about sweat and noise; I just set my tower fan to the sea breeze fan speed, which is excellent and very soothing, creating a perfect environment for work. Additionally, it can be easily controlled without even moving from my desk. This has also made my job easier since I do not have to keep on standing.Pilot Max’s design is a real piece of art. It gives my office an elegant and stylish look. Just by looking at it, I can unwind a stressful morning and set my mind calm and ready to work. The metallic finish keeps my office space sleek and gives it a futuristic appearance. It has since become the center of attraction in my office, with many of my colleagues seeking more information about it during online meetings. I’ve even received comments on how my office space looks fantastic and vibrant for the first time. This lifts my mood to continue working smart and keep up with the technological developments, especially on home gadgets. As I explain to them that it is a tower fan that they can easily purchase from Dreo, they are amazed since it is affordable despite having a luxurious look.For the first time in summer, my energy bill went down. I try to minimize the electricity bills at my office since the gadgets I use are primarily non-energy consuming. Previously with other fans, the amount of energy consumed was embarrassing, and it would go up and up because I was forced to use both A/C and fan together at max capacity. But with Pilot Max, my AC wasn’t needed anymore, only in seldom heat spikes; the A/C would boost cooling a little. At first, I couldn’t believe how it could give cooling breezes at a much lower cost. I have been amazed by it since, as someone in business, I strive to reduce expenses to the very minimum to increase our revenues, and I always struggle between choosing comfort or lowering costs. Its ability to transform the high temperatures within my office and save energy makes it the best tower fan ever.Portability is one of the great things made on this fan. I can place it as far as 26 ft., and I can still feel the air cooling within a second. Pilot Max has a potent brushless DC motor. This gives it the power to reach higher wind speeds than most tower fans. This isn’t just a regular floor fan; it is a cooling powerhouse; it comes with an outstanding impeller wheel extended beyond conventional tower fans measures, allowing air to move smoothly and proportionately in the office. That design gives maximum airflow from the fan with no limits or resistance. The size of the impeller wheel also contributes to the quietness experienced in this tower fan.When I am doing some changes in the office with Pilot Max, I do not have to worry about angling. It has a 120° ultra-wide-angle, allowing the whole office to receive cool air regardless of where it is placed. It makes the environment comfortable even when I am with visitors or family members within my office. Interestingly, the angle can be adjusted according to your needs. For example, when I am concentrated in a particular place in my office, I change it to 90°, circulating air smoothly while I work. This also allows me to share with my family members, who are sometimes helping with my work at the office. All these adjustments are highly convenient since Pilot Max utilizes a remote. Like you can change a TV channel at the comfort of your seat, the adjustments for this tower fan are also made using a remote that operates as far as 29ft. This has made work easier for me; I do not have to keep getting up to make adjustments. And it’s so easy to use that I am able to teach my family members how to operate the fan without facing difficulties since they are well familiar with the use of a remote.The assembly was a no-brainer; to be honest, I was worried about messing it up when putting it together. Personally am not good with fixing items involving screws. But when I purchased it, the manual gave a few easy steps that I followed. It just took me a few clicks here and there to get it all done. Similarly, cleaning it was a delight due to the removable grill, which makes cleaning it not only possible but a piece of cake. Once the fan is on, the auto mode quickly adapts to the room temperature on installation and begins to cool it off. Also, unlike other tower fans with auto power-off of about six hours, the Pilot Max tower fan enables us to enjoy up to 12 hours of power even in sleep mode.I have used various fans before, but after purchasing the Pilot Max, the need for newer fans came to a stop. I finally found a tower fan that best fits my need in both my office and even in my household. Pilot Max has changed my summers; hence I can work continuously regardless of the season. It has excellent technologically advanced features to benefit us, the users. You can tell it is a cooling fan made with real cooling needs in mind.

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. :)

I bought this unit in July of 2023 after living with one for a week in a place I rented on Cape Cod. I loved the quiet, the focused breeze, and the small footprint. This unit was an upgrade from that one, the Cape Cod unit lacked the home automation interface.The unit served me well through the summer. I felt more comfort at night than using the ceiling fan, though on the hottest nights I used both. Towards the end of "fan season", it started making a small ticking sound while oscillating. I ignored it. In June of '24 it was making the sound again, and I contacted Support. They responded quickly and suggested that I do the cleaning procedure. I didn't get around to it. The sound was still not too severe; we have one ceiling fan that makes more noise.With the start of fan season 2025, I decided to address the issue again by doing the cleaning procedure, but it didn't help. I reopened the issue with support. Tina was on the case, again responsive as before. After watching/listening to the video I sent her, she quickly began the process of sending me a replacement unit.
