DreoSmart Table Fan for Bedroom, 28dB Silent Air Circulator Fan with Remote, 7 Inch Diameter Cooling Quiet Desk Fan, 120° Vertical Manual+90° Horizontal Oscillating, 4 Speeds, 5 Modes, 12H Timer

I have several smart home devices so decided to buy this Dreo smart fan when my old one need to be scrapped.Unboxing and setup took less than two minutes and I had no problem with connecting to the app or Alexa. Voice controls worked straight away. I have it set on an old speaker stand to raise it to where I wanted it.The fan is extremely stable and quiet on setting 1. Even with the oscillation going, it barely makes any noise. At full power it is more noisy but less so than my old basic fan.The deceptive part is the amount of air it seems to move. I don’t like the air blowing directly on me so I have the fan angled at about 45 degrees up and angled to bounce the air flow off a wall opposite me. This means that I don’t really feel the air hitting me but I get the cooling effect. Part of the reason for this is that the Dreo smart fan does move a lot of air for its size and it cools the air very well. It is so effective that, on really hot days when I do have the fan blowing directly towards me, it can cause muscle and neck aches. This happens from the lowest setting.The included remote control is good and feels well made, but I mainly use the app or Alexa. The app works really well and does everything you would expect, but also allows scheduling and customisation for the automation. Alexa also works very well and the fan of beeps to say it has obeyed instantly.The only negatives I can find are that the display and controls are on the base and the whole base turns when oscillating. It looks good from a design point of view but can be annoying chasing the controls as they move.I also feel that the fan is capable of much higher settings but it is limited by Dreo. The list specs for the pedestal fans give a lot more speed settings but the motor seems to be the same one.There is a temperature sensor in the fan for the automations, but Alexa can’t use it, which is a shameThere is also no option to wall mount this fan. It is certainly not a deal breaker but would have been nice to have.I bought the Dreo smart fan in The sale so paid just over £50 for it, which I feel was a reasonable price. I probably wouldn’t have bought it at the £75 full price. It is a great fan though and it is very quiet, so it does exactly what I expected

Bought this fan because of struggles with respiratory issues that are exacerbated by stagnant and humid air. It’s been a total game changer. Somehow it feels like it’s cooling the air and not just pushing warm air around like other fans do.The fact it has an app and a remote control means both myself and my partner can control the speed, oscillation, turn it on and off etc individually without having to get out of bed. The timer is a great feature too meaning we can set it to turn off once we’re both asleep.Even on the lowest setting it’s got decent power and pushes out a good amount of air that reaches across the room- whilst not silent, it is quieter than most other fans. It’s an ideal size for our fairly small bedroom but it’s lightweight and portable enough to move into other rooms as required. It has a good degree of oscillation too but we have it set to one position.This has been worth every penny.

We've had the DR-HTF002S for a few days now, and it's been a bit of a mixed bag—kind of like expecting a whirlwind romance but ending up with a lukewarm breeze.The Good:First things first, let's talk about the fan's ninja-like quietness. Up to level 3, it’s whisper-quiet, making it perfect for those intense Netflix binges where you need to hear every whispered plot twist. It's a stark contrast to the usual supermarket round fans that sound like they're about to take off.The real star of the show, though, is its smart home integration. We're big fans (pun intended) of how smoothly it ties into our smart home ecosystem. Alexa, Google, Home Assistant—you name it, this fan plays nice with it. There's something very James Bond about controlling your fan with a voice command. "Alexa, unleash the breeze!"The Bad:But, as they say, not all that glitters is gold—or in this case, not all that spins cools. Our first battle was with the stand. Imagine trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube while blindfolded and you’ll get the idea. After my valiant attempt, my wife took over and managed to assemble it, only to realize she hadn't threaded the plug through. Cue another half-hour of wrestling with the thin, wobbly plastic. For nearly £100, we expected something a bit more, well, sturdy. It's like the fan skipped leg day at the gym.Then there's the power—or lack thereof. Positioned about 6 feet away from our sofa, even at full blast, it feels like a polite breeze rather than a cooling gust. It's like the fan is saying, "I'm here to gently remind you I'm on." For something that tall, you’d expect it to deliver a solid whoosh, but alas, it’s more of a whisper.And let's talk design. At 4 feet tall, it stands proudly in the room but can only rotate left and right. When you're lounging on the sofa, it doesn’t quite hit the mark. What it needs is the ability to tilt up and down—a simple slider would do, or better yet, make it voice-controlled. "Alexa, direct the fan at my face, please."Recommendation:So, would I recommend the DR-HTF002S? It's a yes and a no. If you're after a fan that's quieter than a librarian with a cold and integrates seamlessly with your smart home, this one's a winner. But if you're looking for something with the power to actually cool you down from across the room, you might be left feeling a bit breezy—but not in a good way.This company is on the right track, but they need to pump up the power and add a bit more adjustability to truly hit the mark. For now, it’s a solid 4 stars from me—good, but with room for improvement. Just don’t expect it to blow you away... literally.
