I've tested it extensively and in this article I'll tell you why it's one of my must-haves for the summer.
For detailed instructions and an explanation of all configuration options, I recommend the YouTube video linked below. In this video, every single setting is explained in detail so that you receive comprehensive instructions for the exact setup. You can find any code from the video in this article so that you can use it directly without having to type it in.
Fresh air throughout the room in just 1 minute
Just imagine: You come home, the air is still, and within only one minute the DREO TurboPoly Fan 502S provides for Complete air circulation in the room. Thanks to its TurboAir technology designs it distributes the air evenly and efficiently - whether in the living room, bedroom or home office. The omnidirectional oscillationn of up to 120°. This means that the fan can be tilted both horizontally and vertically by up to 120°.
💨 Airflow that blows you awayWith 85 feet range (over 25 meters!), it allows even the furthest corner to breathe. Perfect if you don't want direct draughts in the bedroom, for example, but still want to feel the fresh air.
8 speeds for every situation
Whether it's a gentle breeze as you fall asleep or powerful ventilation after sport: with 8 individually adjustable wind levels you are guaranteed to find the right intensity for your needs. Control is super easy - either directly on the intuitive digital control panel, per Remote controlor from the comfort of your sofa via DREO App. Or even unofficially via Home Assistant integration.
Whisper-quiet at just 23 dB - ideal for night-time use
I was particularly impressed by how Quiet the fan is in operation. In the Sleep mode it generates just 23 decibels - This corresponds to the rustling of leaves. So you can sleep, read or relax without being disturbed by the fan.
🌙 TipActivate the night mode in the app and enjoy cool air with a minimal noise level. Also ideal for the children's room!
Full control - also via voice assistant
The TurboPoly Fan 502S is a real Smart Home device: You can use it with Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant and switch it on or off or change the wind level by voice command, for example. And via the free DREO App (for iOS and Android) you have access to all settings at any time - whether at home or on the move.
🗣️ Just say: "Alexa, set the fan to level 5" - and it obeys. It couldn't be smarter!
Modern design meets function
The fan not only impresses technically, but also visually. The Compact, modern design blends discreetly into any living style. The Digital LED screen is clearly legible, even in low light. And thanks to the practical Carrying handle you can easily take it from one room to the next.
Own experience
I was honestly surprised at how pleasant this fan is to use. Until Level 3 he is almost inaudible - ideal for the bedroom or at work. Nevertheless, there is still plenty of air at a short distance. Perfect for falling asleep in the heat without being kept awake by disturbing noises.
However, if you need real power, e.g. to mix or cool the air in the room in the shortest possible time, you can use the Activate turbo mode and simply tilt the appliance upwards. Within minutes, you can feel fresh air throughout the room.
I was particularly impressed by the Intelligent app control. Instead of activating the oscillation manually, you can use the 3D angle of the airflow directly in the app with an intuitive interface that allows you to adjust the fan with pinpoint accuracy.
And if you want to be really precise: in the app (and also via Home Assistant), the Swivel range accurate to the degree set - even asymmetrical! I have never seen such features in fans before.
The DREO app is Modern, clear and extremely user-friendly designed. All important functions - speed control, timer, oscillation, tilt, automatic modes - are quickly accessible and can be controlled precisely.
