Are these bladeless fans actually quiet? What are their disadvantages compared to a traditional fan with blades? I know they cost more, but imagine that not being a point

>>105811803 (OP)
I just use one of these. Simple, powerful, and I can clean the steel blades. That dyson shit is bound to break. I hate gimmicks.

>ask question
>don't get an answer but instead some retard sperging out about how his tard rage makes him piss his pants
next volunteer please

I have their heating+cooling fan without the filter. It’s run fine for 5 years, I give it pretty heavy use during winter. Price isn’t even bad if you catch the sales they sometimes put up on eBay. The true tradeoff is that it’s less powerful than traditional fans/heaters and that’s just the reality of having a tiny little fan in the base. Great for a bedroom, not great for a whole basement.

>>105812056
what would you say about the sound, is it very quiet/noticeable/loud?

>>105811971
I got the same one. They must have made millions of them.

>>105812106
Do you have autism?

>>105811803 (OP)
Ive got the round version. It’s pretty quiet but it doesnt blow air as well as the more noisy bladed fans. They look nice but they fucking suck ass repairing. Its borderline impossible to open up that bs to clean it or replace the motor.

>>105812158
where do you think you are retard

>>105812167
thanks for a proper answer

>>105811803 (OP)

>>105812240
so they still have a fan inside and thus will still make plenty of sound (relatively speaking)

>>105812262
Why didn't you just google "how do Dyson fans work"? You could have had your answer in under 5 minutes with technical explanations.

And why ask on /g/ of all places? Most of the people here have no skills or life experience.

It goes in the options field.

>>105812106
higher the setting, louder it gets. More quiet than a larger, more powerful fan. There's no magic.

>>105812262
>so they still have a fan inside
yes
a lot of normies think that somehow because it's a "bladeless" fan that means it doesn't have a motor and it's using some fancy pants ion thruster electromagnetic induction pulse jet technology to move the air LMAO

>>105812262
they have a small fan that runs at such a speed that you feel practically no noise at all. but the air flow it generates makes them just an expensive toy and they are not good for what they were created for. that is why they are not sold in any store.

spins so fast only your puppy dog hears it

>>105812349
high speed increases noise because more vibration is generated.
motors with larger blades generate less noise with the same power supply than the same motor with smaller blades. that's why pc fans are generally large (even in the power supply)

been running my oldass Dyson fan for hundreds of thousands of hours and still works

>>105811803 (OP)
I have a Dyson Hot+Cool. It's not any quieter than a normal fan. The main advantage of it is that I don't have to worry about my pet bird killing itself on the fan blades because the blades are hidden in the base.

>>105811803 (OP)
They're louder.

Actual disadvantage is there's less torque so to say so you can't have absolutely anything in front of it.
>>105811971
There's no gimmicks, just that the rotating blade part spins faster and looks vaguely like a turbo compressor. Case you ever open one up.
>>105813931
Sounds like a bad product then, usually they move more air with less noise.

>>105814208
>with less noise
You don't know what you're talking about.

>>105814896
Could be. Although all the bladeless ones I've seen cost like $300 while the traditional ones are in the $10 to $20 price range.

>>105811803 (OP)
I've got a knockoff
Which wasn't all that cheap either, and I can assure, is very definitely not fucking quiet. Dysons maybe better, but I suspect theres inherently some racket involved.

>bladeless fan
>look inside
>blades

>>105811803 (OP)
>actually quiet
not really. Quieter but that about it
> What are their disadvantages
they are weak af, even if you buy premium product. Not very cost effective

Didn't Project Farm test this one and it was worse than a generic $30 fan?

>>105811803 (OP)
No, they are noisy and clog up easily. The use a small PC fan in the base to push air through the hoop which takes advantage of an effect of a liquid wanting follow along with other quickly moving liquid. They are more of a toy than an actual appliance. If you want consumer grade, get a vornado, if you want better, get a metal fan.

>>105812153
there's probably one chinese factory pumping these out
I have seen the same fan with at least three different brands in person, way more online

>>105811803 (OP)
>Are these bladeless fans actually quiet?
no
they just sound different
and they have blades
its just in the base
smaller blades mean a higher pitch sound
normal fan blades are bigger so they are "louder" but at a lower pitch/tone
i like dyson bladeless because of how they look and how slim they are
also because of the bladeless design you can actualy filter the air it draws in and blows at your whereas with other traditional fans you cant
you would have to buy an air purifier to clean all the air in the room and then have the fan blow it at you
oh and its about have the "power" of a normal fan
you want a torrent of air blowing at you? dont get a bladeless.
or do and make it sound like a jet engine by removing the filter
on one hand they should be way cheaper
but on the other hand i have tried other cheaper bladeless knock offs and they are worse than the dyson so idk

>>105812291
>Why didn't you just google
sums up 98% of this website desu

>>105815331
>clog up
maybe if you have dirt floors

>>105815506
Doesn't matter, they will always clog up, it's the nature of fans.

funny

Project Farm did tower fans test. Dyson is the second loudest on high settibgs.

>>105815549
run mine every day of the year and its not
so...
you have dirt floors
its not the nature of fans
its the nature of living in a dirty environment
sorry that this is how you found out you are brown

>>105816259
his scoring system is retarded
sometimes higher is better
sometimes lower is better
why not just have a standardized scoring system?

>>105816837
also the dyson cfm is a bad test
the way its designed means peak airflow is like 3 meters away from the actual unit
him measureing right up close is worthless

>>105811971
Knocked one of these off a table the other day while it was turned on. The fan must have banged against the case while spinning because it became bent and jammed itself. The metal is quite hard, I've bent it back a bit but it still vibrates itself around and won't stay still on a surface now.

Pros: constant stream of air, small footprint
Cons: expensive, loud, looks like made for women/gays, breaks easily

Just get a large normal fan that can run slow.

>>105812570
disgusting (women will still pick this over a fit awkward guy)

>>105815486
>smaller blades mean a higher pitch sound
I'm super sensitive to high pitched noise, thanks for the warning.

>>105811803 (OP)
Yes they're quiet because they don't move any air. Even project farm has a video on how much they suck ass.
Just get a fan 5% of cost and run it on low. Same thing

Only the Dyson ones work. The cheap shit ones advertise promising to be more silent but its not they all sound loud. And the ofr brand ones usually break in a few days and barely produce heat.

Are there any actually bladeless fans? Like stuff that ionizes and moves air along some current/magnetic field or something.
