The DREO DR-HPF008S is a smart pedestal fan, also known as the TurboPoly Fan 508S. It stands on the floor, its height is adjustable, and it's aimed at moving air through a bedroom or other room. It can be controlled by app, voice command or remote.

Airflow figures

DREO rates the fan at 1000 CFM, with airflow reaching up to 100 feet. CFM measures the volume of air moved per minute. The brand says its air circulation technology can distribute airflow through a space of up to 105 sq. ft. in about one minute. As with any such claim, treat it as the brand's figure, since real-world results depend on the room's shape, furniture and where the fan stands.

Nine speeds and six modes

The fan has nine speeds and six modes. One is Auto, which adjusts speed based on temperature changes. A Turbo mode gives a burst of strong circulation. In general, having nine speeds lets you tune the airflow more finely than a basic three-speed fan.

3D oscillation

The fan oscillates horizontally and vertically at the same time, up to 120° each way, according to DREO. Together with the adjustable pedestal, this lets you aim air at a bed, a desk or a seating area, or sweep it more widely. The pedestal height can be changed to suit different furniture and rooms.

Smart controls

DREO describes the fan as a smart 2-in-1: the app, voice commands or the remote can change speeds, oscillation and timers. The listing also mentions an RGB light control. Check the manual for how the light behaves, since the listing doesn't give details.

DC motor and noise

The fan has a DC motor. DREO says it delivers smooth, stable performance with less vibration than previous-generation DREO fans. In general, DC motors are quieter than basic AC motors and allow more speed steps. The listing gives no decibel figure, so check the manual for noise levels at each speed.

Size

The dimensions are 11 x 13 x 35 inches, and it weighs 11.5 lb (about 5.2 kg). The listing says it has an easy-to-clean design.

Who it suits

It suits bedrooms and living spaces where a floor-standing fan with finer speed control, a remote and phone or voice control would be more convenient than a manual one. It also suits those who like a fan set at a taller height than a table model.

What to check before you buy

  • Floor space: a pedestal fan needs a stable spot and clear room around it for oscillation.
  • Height range: check the maximum and minimum height against your bed or sofa.
  • Smart features: make sure your Wi-Fi and voice assistant work with the DREO app.
  • Noise: the listing doesn't give a decibel figure, so check the manual for each speed.
  • Cleaning: unplug the fan and follow the manual to clean the grille and blades.
  • Cord and outlet: consider where the nearest outlet is.
