I'd need to get both a small electric heater and a quality fan. Then again I hate getting bad quality stuff, I hate getting lots of junk, and I don't mind paying a bit extra for quality stuff.

So.. I've been looking at Dyson's fan heaters.

But at $400 price point I gotta say I hesitate.

Anyone knows if they are THAT good? Or, are there cool, hot budget alternatives around?


Cheers,

If you're having problems you're either holding the phone wrong or you have tiny girl hands.
A $400 fan/heater is more than "a bit extra"

Id just buy a simple fan and a space heater personally unless you just really want the look.

We have the tall dyson fan that's just a fan and we love it. They're quiet, but quiet relative to other fans. We got ours on sale through Groupon so maybe keep an eye out there? It was refurbished and half off, but I could not tell that it wasn't brand new.

Yeah.. i'd gladly pay $400 for the best item if it'll last for a very long time. I just hate throwing stuff away.

The question is whether its pretty good or uttely the best. :-)

I have an AM05 I got refurbished from Woot for $160 a few years ago. "Quiet relative to other fans" is about how I would put it. I haven't really used the heating too much, but it seems to work well enough, and probably a bit better than a space heater.

They go on sale pretty frequently from various retailers, so maybe wait for one of those.

Awesome, I'll look for one and then figure it out. :-)

Overpriced massively for how well they perform. I mean they do the job but the premium over other stuff that does the same job (often better) is nuts.
