App controls add a lot of convenience but it comes at a steep price.
Dreo Pilot Max S MSRP $130.00 Score Details “The Pilot Max S lets users control their smart fan with their voice, along with up to 12 different speed settings -- but that level of granularity just doesn't seem like enough to warrant the price.” Pros Cons With summer in full swing in many parts of the country , you need to stay cool — especially if you have second floors of your home that aren’t quite as optimized.
Setting up the Dreo Pilot Max S was as simple as pressing the Wi-Fi button atop the fan for three seconds until it became discoverable within the app. After that, I just needed to tap a few buttons to carry through the rest of the process. Straightforward and simple, just as smart home device setup should be.
One of the main selling points of the Dreo Pilot Max S is that it’s quiet. According to some of the branding and marketing material, it’s “undetectable.” That’s not quite true. At lower speeds, it’s so quiet you won’t notice it — at all. You won’t even feel the air on your skin. Of the 12 different fan speed options, I found 9 to be the ideal level. At level 12, you’ll definitely notice it. The fan sounds like a jet preparing to taxi down the runway.
On the right of the app is an adjustable slider for changing fan speed. Below that, you’ll find a quick-tap button for turning oscillation on or off, as well as for setting a timer. Our take There’s not much to say about the Dreo Pilot Max S. It’s a fan with smart functionality, and that’s pretty cool. It does what it’s meant to do and keeps an area cool, though I can’t say I noticed much of an overall decrease in the room temperature while it ran. Is it worth the $130 to buy the fan versus investing in a normal fan and hooking it up to a $25 smart plug? I’m not sure — but I can say I don’t think I would have spent that much on it had it not sent to me for review.
