I donโt always leave reviews but thought it necessary to save people the brain damage I put into searching for a decent fan. Iโm not very trusting when it comes to reviews but read enough to pull the trigger on this Dreo. I put it together in 2 minutes. Sleek silver and black design. 12 speeds with a decent remote. Very very powerful and very quiet up to the 10th speed. Still pretty quiet on 11-12 considering it feels like a 10 mph gust of wind. Seriously. It wouldnโt even be necessary to put it that high in a pretty big room. Great distance. It would reach you at 25-30 feet on 10. Iโm feeling it nicely on 3 from 8 feet and canโt even hear it. I bought a Dyson based on the name, cool design, and supposed quiet function that Iโm packing up to return. It was beautiful but way too loud even at mid-speed and it wasnโt nearly as powerful. I donโt know how itโs got a reputation of being quiet. This Dreo is at least twice as powerful with half the noise and at half the price. Sorry Dyson- I donโt like to bash companies but youโre way overmatched here. I generally hate fans but Iโm living without AC in NY humidity. They always feel like theyโre just blowing hot air on you. This oddly feels like cold air. Iโve never experienced that with a fan. Trust me people - youโll be happy with this one. Functions well. Solid build. By far the best tower fan Iโve ever owned.

Unless this thing fails in a before it should, it's unbeatable! I am a lasko fan... haha ๐... there's a pun! And...lasko is still a GREAT fan, but this thing is even greater. I stood the two side by side to see where I wanted to put the new one. The one was moving to an extremely well protected semi outdoor location. It didn't take long to realize that I wanted this new fan all to myself in my kitchen AND another in my master bathroom where there's no vent. And while sitting side by side, testing the two brands together, I stumble on the fact that this fan can be controlled with my old lasko remote! I wish I hadn't waited 3 days after this one arrived to set it up because now I have to wait for my new one to arrive. ๐ Like I said, unless this fan fails before its time it's a real powerhouse. It's highest setting is not whisper quiet, but it's not loud at all. It's also extremely versatile with so many settings. Oscillates further than the other brand, has a larger breeze area and looks much easier to clean. We'll see. Oh and it's really a nice looking fan! I wanted the gold one really bad, but will NOT pay $50 more for a nicer color! I doubt you'll regret this purchase even at this piece tag which I find high. Read more

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, youโll 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 Maxโs 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. Iโve 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 wasnโt needed anymore, only in seldom heat spikes; the A/C would boost cooling a little. At first, I couldnโt 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 isnโt 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 120ยฐ 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 90ยฐ, 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 itโs 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. Read more
