W<\/span>e previously reviewed an older, now-discontinued model, the Dyson – AM07<\/a>, which we found to be effective but too expensive. Dyson has launched its latest line of fans, the TP series, which incorporates an air purifier, and though the Dyson – TP01<\/a> doesn\u2019t have the smart features of the other TP series models, it\u2019s still an impressive \u2014 and pricey \u2014 tower fan.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Dyson company revolutionized vacuums with its cyclone technology and cordless designs, and\u00a0we\u2019ve reviewed<\/a> and recommended<\/a>\u00a0several of them. Dyson also threw its team of engineers in designing a new type of fan, the so-called bladeless fans.<\/p>\n There\u2019s no denying the amazing technology in a Dyson fan or more precisely \u2014 as we explain in our article about how bladeless fans work<\/a> \u2014 an air multiplier. In brief, a Dyson\u2019s motor is designed to force air upwards through the upper body\u2019s loop. It then pulls in air surrounding the loop and multiplies the air volume before expelling it outward.<\/p>\n This explanation is still probably too technical, but put simply, the result is that the airflow is smoothed out. You feel a constant, gentle breeze, rather than the buffeting sensation you feel from a traditional bladed and oscillating fan<\/a>.<\/p>\n The first Dyson fans were table fans, and instead of a loop, the upper body was a silver or black ring, something you might catch Sauron peering through. They were also notoriously noisy. The company spent three more years researching how to muffle the motor\u2019s sound, and they succeeded in designing a much quieter model, which is now Dyson\u2019s claim to fame. When we tested the Dyson – AM07 with other tower fans<\/a>, it was quieter, but only by a few decibels, and the difference was not noticeable when compared with our top (and much cheaper) pick, the Seville Classics – UltraSlimline<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dyson continues to refine their air multiplier\u2019s technology, and Dyson has incorporated air purifiers, heating elements, humidifiers and air-pollution sensors into the newest models.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The TP series, also called Dyson Pure Cool, has a built-in air purifier with a high efficiency particulate-arresting (\u201cHEPA\u201d) filter, which Dyson claims only needs to be replaced once a year. The Pure Cool air multipliers pull in dust and allergens and expel clean air that is virtually free of pollutants (a 99.97% reduction of\u00a0particles in air that passes through the filter).<\/p>\n The TP02 is Wi-Fi compatible and has an automatic mode for air purification, meaning it can turn the fan speed up when a sensor detects pollution in your air. The TP03 was an updated version of the TP02, but it\u2019s no longer available.<\/p>\n The TP04 is the most significant change, adding an LCD display, thicker filters, and more pollution sensors to show you a more complete picture of your air quality. Its oscillation can be set up to 350 degrees to reach every corner of a room. You can also change the airflow direction, and a nighttime setting lowers airflow to a quieter level.<\/p>\n There\u2019s no question that the TP series is remarkable, but is it worth almost $600 for the ability to see your air quality status in an app? You could buy a tower fan and an air purifier with a HEPA filter<\/a> and perhaps get better results for less than half the cost.<\/p>\n As much as we love technological marvels, we found the newer models of the TP series too expensive and chose to test the TP01 \u2014 not exactly a bargain at $400 \u2014 to see how it compared to the discontinued AM07.<\/p>\nTable of contents<\/h2>\n
