a tower fan that also purifies your air
0:02
let's check it

0:10
out Dave Taylor here and I'm checking
0:12
out this this is the doo 45 in air
0:17
purifier tower fan so the top portion is
0:22
an oscillating tower fan and then the
0:25
bottom portion is actually a HEPA air
0:28
purifier so it's a really slick design
0:31
when you have it all going it puts out
0:33
an enormous amount of air and all of it
0:36
coming in through the bottom and going
0:38
through the filtration system so not
0:41
only will this cool down your space but
0:44
it will also clean the air and that's
0:47
really slick now you see this blue on
0:49
the front here that blue indicates I
0:52
have very good air quality so one of the
0:55
things Doo's done really well is they've
0:57
really engineered that user experience
1:00
and they have a ton of fans I've looked
1:02
at a ton of their fans I really like the
1:04
brand they are one of the bestselling
1:07
fans in the world actually and these
1:10
demonstrate why or this one demonstrates
1:13
why so I'm going to jump in with some
1:15
close-ups in a minute but for now let me
1:17
just show you that there's a touch
1:19
sensitive panel on the top that give you
1:22
controls and it also includes a remote
1:25
control that you can use and there's
1:28
also an app and we'll plug in that app
1:30
and check that out in a minute too but
1:32
let me give you some basic specs so
1:34
there's 120° oscillation which I'm going
1:36
to turn
1:38
on and there we go so now it's starting
1:41
to oscillate and 120 degrees is really
1:44
nice I've looked at fans that have like
1:45
80 or 90° and The Wider it can oscillate
1:50
the more you can put it into a corner
1:52
and have it really work and clear a
1:55
space for you now you want to have it at
1:58
least a foot from the wall you can see
2:00
I'm demonstrating here cuz you want to
2:02
have nice air flow around it but the
2:05
idea that you don't need this in the
2:07
middle of the room but you can have it
2:08
in a corner or something that's really
2:11
terrific so 120° oscillation it's a dual
2:14
motor system with five different speeds
2:17
and at maximum speed and let's do that
2:20
so there's a Plus on the
2:22
top and
2:30
that should be speeding it up quite a
2:34
bit and I can see all the things around
2:37
the camera are now blowing away so it
2:40
puts out a maximum of
2:43
1558 cubic feet of air per minute so
2:47
that's pretty powerful you're going to
2:49
be able to feel that 25 30 ft away and
2:53
still notice
2:55
that it's still pretty darn quiet so in
2:59
sleep mode mod with just the fan it's
3:01
down to 25 DB which means you're not
3:03
going to hear it at all you will have
3:05
environmental noise that'll be at least
3:07
that loud does have a 24-hour timer so
3:11
this works out really well for people
3:12
that want to be able to like set it when
3:15
they go to bed and have it automatically
3:17
turn off at say 9:00 a.m. because you've
3:20
left for work and you don't want to
3:21
worry about having to remember it but
3:24
since it does have internet connectivity
3:27
it also means you could do that from the
3:29
app at work work you can say oh let me
3:31
check oh still on turn it off boom easy
3:34
as that so it's a bladeless fan system
3:37
which means it's completely safe for
3:39
little people which I really appreciate
3:42
and the way it's designed it's really
3:44
easy to pop the filter out here so it
3:48
has this round HEPA filter and it's easy
3:51
to pop that out and then the back you
3:53
can take the entire back off and you can
3:56
just rinse the system out because it is
3:59
going to collect dust my experience with
4:01
fans in Dusty environments is the dust
4:04
ends up in the fan which I guess is the
4:06
point of an air purifier so that's
4:08
totally logical um the display will Auto
4:12
dim based on the illumination level
4:14
which is super important for people that
4:16
want to have a really dark room when
4:18
they sleep it will detect your that it's
4:20
in a dark room and it'll turn the
4:21
display off so that's really perfect
4:24
behavior in terms of the HEPA filter at
4:26
the bottom and I don't know if it's just
4:28
me but I look at this and I think that
4:30
it's like one of those propane space
4:32
heaters that restaurants use so it's
4:35
that similar sort of design with that
4:37
lower base but the lower base is that
4:40
air purifier and that air purifier gets
4:44
99.97% of particulate matter down to 0.3
4:50
micrometers so it's going to pick up
4:52
pollen and dander and dust and you know
4:55
even if there's like smoke from a fire
4:57
in the area it'll be able to pick that
4:59
up and it'll be able to avoid you having
5:02
to breathe it which is the entire
5:03
purpose so drio app gives you Alexa
5:07
compatibility let me jump to some
5:09
closeups so you can see the front
5:11
display and you can see the top and how
5:15
those controls work the display offers a
5:17
lot of information and here you can see
5:19
that I am connected to Wi-Fi and that I
5:22
have muted the system so I don't get
5:24
beeps that one represents air quality
5:27
that is remarkably low and you can see
5:30
that that is true cuz you can see
5:32
microgram per cubic meter and then that
5:36
a means I'm in auto mode and then the
5:39
auto with the leaf on the right is the
5:41
purification mode notice in particular
5:44
that blue bar which indicates I have
5:47
excellent air quality if it was green it
5:49
would be good air quality orange for
5:52
moderate and red for poor air quality
5:55
now let's jump and look at the top too
5:58
the buttons on the control panel our
6:01
power mode button to switch between
6:04
normal Auto sleep and
6:07
Breeze purification
6:09
mode increase speed decrease speed an
6:13
information button that will make sure
6:15
you can see your air quality a timer and
6:19
of course the oscillation button now
6:22
let's pair the fan with the drio app so
6:26
I launched the drio app and because I
6:28
have other fans you already see them in
6:30
the app but I'm going to press
6:32
plus and then it should find the device
6:35
there it is purifier tower fan doesn't
6:38
get much easier than that and let's see
6:41
press and hold the button indicated for
6:43
5 seconds so that is the oscillation
6:48
button so 1 2 3 4 5 it actually has a
6:54
countdown
6:55
timer
6:57
and so now Wi-Fi that looks like it's
7:01
good and I'm going to connect to the
7:05
device and this seems like it's going
7:08
slow but my experience is that all of a
7:11
sudden it leaps forward significant
7:12
amounts so I don't think it's going to
7:14
take long as you can see here it's going
7:16
pretty quickly actually even though that
7:18
first couple of TAPS were slow so we're
7:20
done that's all I needed to do we'll put
7:23
it in the default room and I guess there
7:25
are two different colors and I think
7:27
that refers to the blade in here this is
7:30
a transparent portion and then there's a
7:32
blade in there and when I say blade I
7:36
think it's actually rubber but it's
7:38
completely sealed anyway and you can
7:40
have that be blue or orange pretty sure
7:42
mine's blue so we'll do blue and now
7:46
here it is so now I have a huge number
7:49
of controls so I can go here and I can
7:52
change the purification level again this
7:55
is still blue and you can see in the app
7:58
it's showing me blue so my air quality
8:00
is already really good and that's
8:03
partially because I have other air
8:04
purifiers also running but I can go into
8:07
the fan and I can go into sleep mode and
8:11
drop it down let's drop it down to
8:15
four and now it's super quiet so now
8:19
it's oscillating at 90° but I can change
8:22
that you can actually find tune it which
8:24
I think is really cool and you can do it
8:26
asymmetrically where I can just say just
8:29
have it work in that portion of the room
8:32
or I can just say boom let's do the full
8:33
120 super easy and then the display I
8:38
can um turn the display off if I want if
8:42
I really never want to see any
8:44
illumination from this portion I don't
8:46
want to see any data I'll use the app
8:48
thank you very much I can turn the
8:50
display off from the app there's panel
8:53
sounds that are already turned off child
8:56
lock as you can see there's just so much
9:00
you can do here and I really like it
9:02
tracks filter life I can go into
9:05
settings and I can change a bunch of
9:07
this stuff including we can check let's
9:09
see if there's a firmware version that's
9:12
updatable and we already have the latest
9:15
firmware you wouldn't think that's a big
9:17
deal but it's useful and notice it also
9:20
gives me the ability to hook it up to
9:21
both Alexa and Google assistant so if I
9:24
give it a memorable name I can then say
9:27
something like you know turn on purifier
9:31
fan and then it would just turn it on
9:33
without me having to touch anything
9:35
which is ideal but this is also this app
9:38
is running through WiFi and this is
9:40
talking to my Wi-Fi network which means
9:44
I could turn this on on my way home and
9:47
by the time I get home it will have
9:49
moved all the air and cleaned it up a
9:51
little bit and it'll just make it a more
9:53
pleasant environment for me to walk into
9:55
so that's what I wanted to show you with
9:57
the app and like I said it's just
10:01
delightfully easy to work with and I
10:03
have all of my drio fans in that app
10:05
which just gives me power I can set
10:08
things up it's actually really great so
10:11
that's pretty much everything it's 46.5
10:15
in tall and at the base at the widest
10:18
it's 11 in across and it is a little bit
10:22
heavy because there's a lot going on
10:24
here so it's about 18 lb 17.8 lb so it's
10:29
not the most convenient to pick up and
10:30
move around but the whole point is you
10:32
don't need to do that you can just set
10:34
it up as I have here in a corner and
10:38
it's going to be good to go so really if
10:41
you're looking for an air purifier and
10:43
you want a fan there's no reason in the
10:45
world not to have them paired and have
10:47
them in one unit makes life so much
10:49
easier and it's a nice elegant looking
10:52
unit that's comparable to another brand
10:54
that starts with d but charges a whole
10:56
heck of a lot more for products that
10:58
might not be is good we're just going to
11:00
go that far with that so this is one
11:03
definitely worth checking out I think
11:05
it's worth you know adding to your home
11:07
or office there's no space that it's not
11:09
going to make more pleasant so really
11:12
nice I am going to ask you to subscribe
11:14
to my channel click or tap on that
11:16
subscribe button hit that Bell icon for
11:18
notifications give me a thumbs up if you
11:20
found this of value and I hope you did
11:23
great this is the doo 45in air purifier
11:28
Tower fan and it is
11:33
$299.99 currently with a $30 coupon
11:37
discount dropping it down to
11:40
$269.99 at
11:42
amazon.com and just so you know
11:44
replacement HEPA air filters are $39.99
11:48
each so I would recommend ordering an
11:52
extra because they last 6 to 12 months
11:55
you can probably push it further than
11:56
that what I do is I'll take them out and
11:58
I'll vacuum them um but eventually
12:01
that's not going to really be working
12:03
really well so it's nice to know that
12:04
there are Replacements and that they're
12:06
actually considerably less expensive
12:08
than you might think so that's
12:10
everything I'm going to actually go put
12:12
this in my bedroom so I'll hope to catch
12:15
you in my next video
