The DREO Smart Tower Fan, which shoppers have described as a 'powerful but quiet' alternative to Dyson, has returned to stock at Amazon as the UK endures another heatwave. Priced at £84.99, the fan has been purchased over 2,000 times in the past month and holds more than 1,600 reviews on the platform.
Features and Compatibility
The DREO Smart Tower Fan can be controlled via the DREO app, a remote control, or its built-in control panel. It is compatible with Alexa, Google Home, and Siri, and offers an eight-hour timer via the remote and control panel, along with an exclusive 12-hour timer option. The fan provides three modes—normal, sleep, and natural—and four speed settings. It oscillates at 90 degrees and can project air up to 33 feet.
Shopper Praise and Criticism
One shopper commented: 'I've honestly fallen in love with this tower fan... It doesn't feel like a cheaply made fan, and it honestly feels like I'm using something that should cost as much as a Dyson fan.' They added: 'The fan itself is pretty quiet even at level four... What blows me away the most is that the fan packs a bunch of functionality without needing to talk to your phone.'
Another buyer noted: 'Quiet fan with several settings, ideal for a bedroom - good value for money as compared to Dyson fans but providing as good a cooling effect.' However, a dissatisfied shopper remarked: 'A nice little fan, but not as powerful as I hoped. Ok for the bedroom, close to the bed for hot nights. Fairly quiet too.'
One satisfied customer shared: 'I bought this a few weeks ago in preparation for summer. Best money I've ever spent. It was amazing during the heatwave; it actually blows cold air, not warm. Super quiet. Very, very good.' Another added: 'Great purchase, especially for the recent heatwaves. Powerful enough to cool the room, yet quiet enough to run at night without disturbing sleep.'
