    The Dreo Pedstol fan is absolutely amazing. Right out of the box, the only thing you need to do is connect the base to the fan, plug it in, and you're ready to go. It has amazing features, and is much more powerful and quiet then your normal standing fan. The features, such as being able to control it with a remote, or even better with your phone, so if you're like me and you sleep with the fan on, all you have to do is grab the remote or your phone and turn the fan speed up or down. The fan also oscillates up and down, and side to side. Now the fan speeds are great, you can have the fan set to low, and you'll never hear it running, or you can set it to Turbo and everything you own will be blown away (Just kidding, but it is very strong). The Wifi was very easy to set up and use with the fan, along with connecting it to my digital assistants, which also makes life a little bit better. I enjoy the fact that I don't have to get up out of bed and switch the fan to whatever speed I want, it's as simple as grabbing the remote and lowering the speed and back to sleep I go. Overall this is a great fan that has great functionality.

    Been using this for about a week now and it's the best pedestal fan I've ever used. It was packaged well and set up took 15 minutes and that included adding the app to my phone etc. The fan looks and feels well constructed. It is well designed and looks classy so it does not take away from the room whatsoever. It is VERY poweful and on the lower speeds you can barely hear it. It moves in every possible position left to right, up and down where it can blow air straight up so as far air circulation, this fan cannot be beat. Not only does it come with a remote control giving you full functionality, you can also dowload the Dreo app and control it that way. It also can be voice controled via Alexa or Google. This is perfect for warm sleepers like myself. It dosent distract me at all when trying to sleep. The fan can be programmed also to best suit your needs whether its being used to cool you down or to simply to circulate air in the room. Far superior to any ceiling fan. This is an item i highly recommend. I plan on getting more than one for my home.

    DREO PEDESTAL FAN

    So I just received my Dreo Pedestal Fan with Remote about a week ago and have been putting it through its paces. This is a brand that I've never heard of before but due to its unique features I decided to give it a go. First off, everything you need is in the box with the fan and within just a few minutes you will be up and running within a few minutes. Simply take that fan which is already connected to the stand out of the packaging. Next, using the provided bolt and washer, screw the base onto the bottom of the stand. You may need assistance or simply just turn the fan upside down and screw the bolt and washer to the base. Once you have the base connected, pop in the included batteries, plug in the adapter and you're good to go. It took me all of 3 minutes to connect everything. Using the screw-knob on the back of the stand you can raise and lower the height of the fan to your liking. Now to operate this fan, you have 3 options, Wi-Fi via the app that can be downloaded from the App Store for iOS or Google Play Store for Android, you can also use the buttons on top of the fan, and lastly you can control the fan by using the included remote. You can also control the fan via voice commands with Alexa and Google. We have been using this fan almost non-stop in our living room. The oscillating features of this fan is just amazing. To have it rotate horizontally and vertically at the same time is an easy and quick way to help not only circulate cooler air, but also cool the area down pretty quickly. Now you can set it to just oscillate vertically or horizontally. It has 8 different levels of speed with level 7 and 8 being our fave. You can set it on a timer as well. The display on the front of the stand allows you to see what setting you have it on as well as the buttons and lights on top of the fan. As far as noise level, the fan it super quiet and was not too loud while watching TV or even sleeping at night. This is an amazing fan and I'm glad we chose it.

    No pun intended the Dreo Pedestal fan looks cool. It screams premium, from the serious weighted base to the faux brown leather accents on what I guess are the arms. Unboxing the Dreo Fan is easy enough. Don't be fooled by the size of the box, this is only marginally bigger than a normal pedestal. It's just VERY well packed. In the box is the Dreo Pedestal Fan (technically an air circulator), the base, some tools, the remote, and the power supply. Putting it together took all of 15 seconds and there are tools included. The next step is downloading the free Dreo app, signing up for an account and connecting the fan to WiFI - this was one of the best experiences, with the Dreo Fan connecting to my WiFi 6 mesh network quickly and without issue. That said, you don't have to use it as a smart fan - so if you don't want app or voice control, it works with the remote. Kudos for Dreo for making something that is optionally smart for those who want that feature. In use this is where the Dreo fan shines. While the fan has a lot of buttons it's easier to manage it via the Dreo app. You can turn the fan on/off (no surprise) but where it blew my mind (no pun again! haha) is literally can be set to rotate and move in every direction so all the air in a room moves. This includes up, down, left right... the only way I can describe it is it can operate like a searchlight sweeping a room. Making the Dreo really an all-season fan, as you could point it at the ceiling in winter to force hot air down. All these settings can be done with the buttons, but I prefer the app as it's easier to adjust to exactly what you want. The Dreo Pedestal Fan is a smart fan, supporting Google Assistant and Alexa. With Google Home (I don't use Alexa) you can turn the fan on, adjust the speed, and turn on and off the vertical and horizontal oscillation. Although, again, it's better to use the app rather than voice controls unless you just want to turn the Dreo on and off - as I found using voice didn't give me the absolute control I need. Mind you, a few more weeks of use and maybe I will be an expert. For what it's worth the Dreo Pedestal Fan is also height adjustable. So if you're like me and looking for a fan for the bedroom that has enough height to actually reach you while you sleep (both in height and wind speed) this is the one. The Dreo even has a quiet mode for when you sleep and you can set the timer to automatically turn it off if you don't want the fan all night. Even not in sleep mode, the Dreo is a quiet fan and you can't even hear the motor that controls the fan oscillations. What it's missing. The only things I wish it had a slot to store the very funky looking but very black remote and instead of wall wart power supply it had a smaller plug with an inline adapter. I would also recommend using the app over the buttons or the remote, it's easier to adjust the swing batter and intensity with the app and the app is clean, usable and responsive. There's also no HomeKit support. If you're looking for smart fan but want something better than 10x better than your average pedestal, that can cool a whole room and will be useful all year round. Definitely worth the investment and recommended. PS. There is no Apple HomeKit support, but if you're technically included, I managed to my Raspberry Pi with Homebridge to connect the Dreo to HomeKit. Probably not something most people will do, but if you're a bit technical keep it in mind.

    I’ve been needing a new fan for the warm weather and this one fits the bill perfectly for what I need. I was excited that it has smart phone connectivity and a remote control for ease of use too! Out of the box, assembly was a simple as you can get… one bolt connects the base to the fan. Tighten it up and plug in the fan, then you’re done. Fired it up and I was honestly surprised with how nice this worked! Its diameter is smaller than my previous pedestal fan but this thing out performs those older ones by a lot! When running it’s quiet, but blows plenty hard and moves a lot of air. I love the vertical oscillation option on this model. I’ve never had another fan that could do that. When I set it up I have it oscillate horizontally and vertically to make sure it moves the most amount of air throughout the room and let me tell you it is a huge difference from my old fan. This thing outperforms any other fan I had, even with a smaller diameter than I was used to. The price on this is really a great deal, well worth it and it’s a fantastic buy for the price. Can’t beat the quality, build, and functionality of this unit! Highly recommended and 10 out of 10!

    Best Pedestal Fan I've Ever Used

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The title says it all. This is by far the best pedestal fan I have ever used. Pedestal fans are one of those things I didn't really know I needed improved. They have just kind of always been there in the background of life, just existing. Not really being good or bad. Just offering a cool breeze when needed. So when I received this Dreo pedestal fan, with all of it's smart features, I was a bit skeptical. Just to briefly review the features, the fan features 8 speeds, remote, wifi, voice control via google/alexa, vertical and horizontal oscillation, and a led display screen. Now, just to get right to the fan performance, it performs as well as any good pedestal fan should. The lowest speed is super quiet while still providing good air flow, and the highest speed provides the most air flow I have ever felt from a pedestal fan, and while it is definitely louder than the low speeds, it is not unbearably loud. And in between those two extremes are 6 more speeds, giving you plenty of room to choose the perfect speed for your situation. Everything else that I listed in the features is what really makes this fan stand out. The oscillating works perfectly, and I didn't realize how useful the vertical oscillation would be until I actually used it. It really allows the fan to circulate air throughout the entire room. While the vertical oscillation is limited to a single on/off option, the horizontal oscillation allows you to choose between 60, 90, and 120 degree oscillation. Again, giving you plenty of options to customize the operation to your specific situation. All of these features can be controlled via touch sensitive buttons on the fan itself, or by the included remote. The remote works via IR, so you do need line of sight to the fan in order to use the remote. I wish they would have used RF instead, but it's not a huge deal. The on-fan display screen allows you to quickly and easily see the status of the fan. Lastly, you can download the Dreo smartphone app and connect it via wifi. This allows you to control everything via the app, or using Google/Alexa if you have those set up. One of my favorite features of the app is that you can create custom schedules, where you can customize not just the time that the fan turns on/off, but also the fan speed, oscillation, etc. There are also different modes you can use in the app such as Auto, Natural, and Turbo. I haven't messed around with these too much yet, but it's nice to see that the smart phone app integration is more than just replicating the on-device or remote functions, and it actually gives you more customization options and functionality. Overall the Dreo Smart Pedestal fan really surprised me. I didn't think I really needed smart phone connectivity in a pedestal fan, but after using it for a while now, I really feel that it's not just a gimmick and has really enhanced the usability/functionality of this fan. And on top of everything, the Dreo is just a really nice fan that is both quiet, yet powerful.

    Smart device that moves a lot of air for its size

    The Dreo air circulator is a stylish and versatile fan. Setup was easy and intuitive. All of the tools you need to set the fan up are in the box. The app found the fan and connected to it almost immediately. The app isn’t the most intuitive. The fan has both an “automatic” mode and a “work’s with AC” mode (which is also an automatic mode - albeit one that works slightly differently). I was also a little dismayed that I could set the fan speed for different temperatures, but I couldn’t set it to turn itself completely “off” at certain temperatures. Ideally, I’d like to leave the fan off when the temperature is 70 degrees or less and have it increase in speed as the temperature rises. Unfortunately, the lowest it will go is a speed of “1.” Fortunately, the fan integrates with Google Assistant, and I may be able to setup some type of control scheme that will allow for turning it off with the temperature using the assistant and/or a third-party app. Still, I do appreciate the features that this fan comes with, and the app does give you a great degree of control over the fan’s various functions. In addition to the app and the “on-device” controls, the circulator also comes with a small remote control. This is nice if you don’t want to bother setting it up with the app or a voice assistant. In addition to the usual “side to side” the fan can also oscillate up and down. This is great for really controlling the airflow of a room. I do have some concerns with running the fan at higher speeds though. The base doesn’t seem to be the most stable, and the fan wobbles rather badly at high speeds. I currently have the air circulator setup upstairs in my finished attic/office space. This is an area that has very little natural airflow, and the circulator is making a word of difference in terms of keeping the space from becoming too stuffy. In short, this is a feature-rich device with lots of control options that does a great job of circulating the air.

    Attractive & functional fan for office or home

    Dreo - Pedestal Fan with Remote, 120° + 105°Smart Oscillating Floor Fans with Wi-Fi/Voice Control, Works with Alexa/Google – Gray This pedestal fan makes a nice appearance! It would be entirely in place in a nice office or in your home. It stands nearly 4’ tall while extended. If you do not extend it, it is a little over 3’ tall. This means it is usable wherever you need it. It will oscillate left/right (60° 90° or 120°) or up/down (105°) or both combined. Of course, it will simply stay in the direction you need if you don’t want it to oscillate. It offers fan speeds 1 through 8, so you have plenty of choices according to your preference. In fact, it offers an automatic mode that will control the air speed output based upon the ambient temperature of the air in the room! You can also set a built-in timer so that it will shut off after setting how many hours you want it to run (between 1 hour and 8 hours). Some settings are only accessed through the Dreo app on your phone, which offers some variations on some of the settings I’ve mentioned above. You need to set up an account with Dreo if you plan to use voice commands through voice assistants. Otherwise, you can use the app without an account. The unit comes with a remote that I personally like since I don’t really like a bunch of apps on my phone – each to his/her own preference. By the way, on the top of the fan housing are buttons for all the normal controls so if you don’t want to use the app or remote you can control the fan manually from there. I’ve found that the Dreo Pedestal Fan is quiet in operation and really can put out the air flow. For those wanting an attractive pedestal fan with plenty of options in a room at home or in an office, this fan looks nice and does the job to suit you. In the “wish it had” department, it would be nice if it came with a longer power cord and the cord plugged into the pedestal closer to the floor so that if you moved it a good distance from the wall the cord would lie more easily on the floor. One other thing I would like would be to have a handle on the top of the fan shroud so that you could simply slip your fingers through it to move the fan to another location. As it is, you have to grasp the pedestal below the fan shroud to pick it up and move it. Perhaps the oscillating features that move the fan shroud wouldn’t hold up over time to lifting the unit by a handle on top of the shroud – I don’t know, but a handle on top of the shroud would be a plus in my book.

    With warmer days ahead, I am glad to have gotten the Dreo Pedestal Fan as a replacement for an older and louder fan. I live in Colorado and so A/C is not always necessary, and I was happily surprised to feel the cool air this fan can push. I work from home and so I have been keeping this in my office, and one of the best parts is that I can even forget is there because it’s so quiet! It only starts getting a little louder at speeds 7 and 8, but even there it’s way quieter than my older fan. Personally, I am not sure about the option to change directions up to the ceiling or to the floor, I mean I want this blowing to me not my ceiling. It’s there as a feature but I don’t use it. I guess if you’re cleaning your house you can use that to help you dry your floors quicker. I highly recommend this fan to anyone looking for a stylish, strong, and quiet fan. This checks all boxes for me. It doesn’t look ugly in the office, it’s strong even if it’s 12 feet away at a lower speed, and I can’t hear it while I am working. A win for me!

    Why 4 stars. It is a great fan and works well and even better if you download the app. But not quite 5 stars from me. First the fan size. It does a great job for its size, but I feel if it was just a little bigger it would have a little more wind area. We have a fan that is wider, and it easily blows and wife and me. This in the same spot not as much. I am not sure if that is due to its size or that it does not come up as high. The remote. It has a lot of futures, and they captured a lot of those with the remote. But I feel they missed an opportunity, and that is it should have lit up. It only has a bump on the power button and that it is. So, if its dark, it is hard to figure out what button is what. I feel a lit up remote would have been nice, especially if you don't want to use the app. Also, on the remote, why not a rechargeable battery and a USB-C port to charge. That said, if you end up downloading the App, I feel this is where this shines. The app allows you to set the direction how you want. You do not have to hit the osculating button and have it osculate until it's where you want it. The fact that you can set it to osculate with the remote or App is also a great future. You can osculate it up and down, as well as side to side. You can also connect it to your wifi and then control it when you are out and about. Overall, a great fan and I would recommend it.

    Modern Smart Fan with a Killer Feature

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This smart fan offers some new tricks not found in your garden variety pedestal fans. For one thing, it's "smart" and can connect to the home assistant of your choice to be controlled by voice anywhere you are in the house or when you're out and about. The killer feature for me however, is the vertical oscillation. You also get your horizontal traditional oscillation AND you can combine the use of both of them which really cools the room fast and offers a more natural-feeling air flow and almost breeze-like instead of blasting the air right in your face once the fan rotates toward you. You can still have it do that though if you like. The fan is very attractive and modern looking. It does include a remote for basic controls of vertical and horizontal oscillation, speed, mode, and on/off. Assembly is one screw in the base and you're done. I was up and running in minutes. There is an LED to show the status of the fans settings and you can touch the top of the fan for touch-sensitive manual controls. I will be using this fan for years.

    So far so good. Brought this less than 2hrs ago and had it out the box and plugged in within 5min. It gives good circulation to move hot air. Plenty good for a large bedroom or medium sized living room/dining room area. The turbo speed setting is where I have it set now until the outside weather cools down. I purchased this along with a portable AC to help circulate cool air throughtout the main level of my home.
