A beautifully smooth, pleasant-sounding bladeless tower, but in CNET's test it tied for the weakest airflow, drew 50 W on high, and costs about twice as much as Shark's bladeless fan.

Top complaints

  • Weakest airflow

    CNET measured a 197 FPM median (tied for lowest) and 315 FPM max.

    Source: CNET
  • Expensive for simple features

    CNET says its simple features and $400 price, about twice the Shark and Dreame bladeless fans, kept it from being the bladeless pick. Oscillation is only 70 degrees.

  • Power-hungry on high

    CNET measured 50 W on high, among the least efficient fans it tested.

What owners love

  • Unmatched air texture

    CNET says the air texture of bladeless fans like the Dyson is unmatched (10/10).

  • Pleasant white noise, no beeps

What experts say

  • CNET: 8/10 (July 2026), not a pick: exceptional air texture and white noise, but simple features and a $400 price hold it back.
