Dyson calls there Dyson Pure Cool Me their first personal purifying fan. I took that to heart and took it to work. My job requires me to close my office door and not come out for hours at a time. I am alone most of the time and this seemed a perfect place to keep it personal. I have to say at first the spacy look didn’t appeal to me at all. I think one will either like the looks or not. At first, I didn’t like the look until I had more time with it. Then I began to appreciate it more for its function over form. But the looks can grow on you when its cleaning the air you breathe. The fan comes with a pretty comprehensive remote control for all of it settings. The remote control can be placed on the front of the fan when not in use by magnets. The filter is quite large and to get to it you just press two buttons to lift the top off and pull the filter out. Dyson rates the filter life for one year when used 12 hours a day. The front of the fan has a simple round LED display that shows you the condition and life remaining of the filter. It also will display your fan speed, oscillation on and off and stop timer setting. The timer can go as low as 30 minutes or up to 8 hours. The fan itself seems to easily have more power then you need as a personal fan. The air flow is adjusted by pushing lightly on the blub, or orb. Odd as it sounds it does make a large difference on where the air is directed. The range of movement allows if to sit on your desk or the floor. The fan and air flow can be adjusted so it is almost totally silent to be loud with enough air moving for an average size office or bedroom. The fan has a removable power adapter with a six-foot power cable that ends in quite a large power brick. But it all feels very well thought out and built well. So far, I am very impressed with what Dyson has engineered here and look forward to knowing my office will have cleaner air for those long hours I spend in it. It is also nice to have a breeze keeping me comfortable.

Another home run for Dyson

This Pure Cool Me is yet another awesome Dyson product added to our home. The fan is surprisingly strong for the size, even more so than the blue & gray heat/cool fan we currently use in our bedroom. This new one is a bit quieter, and also an air purifier, which is a great addition. It has an LED screen that lets you see when the filter needs to be replaced (see attached photo) simply by pressing the " i " button on the remote. The LED also dims in dark rooms, which is awesome! I currently use a scrunchy to block the bright blue light our other Dyson fan omits into the bedroom. I am very sensitive to any kind of lights while trying to sleep, so this feature is going to save me the headache of trying to cover it without also covering the sensor for the remote to work. The remote is almost identical to our older model, which still has the original battery btw, but this one is magnetized and sticks to the front of the unit. The fan has a very nice range for osculation, and unlike our previous model, you can tell where the center is, for better positioning. To change the direction of airflow vertically you simply slide the middle sphere up or down. You can set a timer for it to go off in: 30mins, 1hr, 2hrs, 4hrs & 8hrs. I will probably never use it however, as I need white noise while sleeping, so the fan stays on ALL night, year round! I cannot wait to see how well this fan cools our bedroom once the hot weather arrives here in Michigan.
Sidenote: Our Dyson heat/cool fan was bought in early 2012, 7 years ago, it has been used EVERYDAY during that time, and is still going strong, with the original battery that came in the remote! That says a lot about the longevity of their products.

I merely have to keep this on the low setting to keep my entire 10 x 10 office chilly. It works wonderfully when my air conditioner doesn’t. Great compliment when it does.

I own several Dyson products and they are all the top of their product category, albeit they are a bit expensive. The Dyson Pure Cool Me air purifier is another terrific example of Dyson's ingenuity.
The odd yet sleek purifier is extremely simple to setup and use. Just lift top off the unit and slide in the filter cartridge, replace the top and you're done! A new and interesting way to angle the air flow helps to put fresh air right where you want it. The machine oscillates in roughly a 70 degree arc and I think the output air flow can change about 40-50 degrees vertically.
A curved remote fits nicely (and magnetically) to the purifier base, but I just leave it on my nightstand. I've setup the purifier so it showers me with fresh air all night long - and I do feel I've been sleeping better the last 2 weeks with it. I think the nice consistent sounds helps as well.
The unit has an informational display area to tell when the filter needs to be changed, shows the fan speed and displays the sleep timer setting. Also, you don't need to use the remote to change the speed - simply hold the power button in back to scroll through the speeds.
Thus far, I'm very happy with the purifier and plan on sleeping better each night!

Personal air purification with cool air flow

This is another high quality product from Dyson. Please note that this is good only for a small area and will not deliver the air to the whole room/bigger area. It provides pointed air flow so you would mostly use it for personal use (e.g. on your work desk or next to your bed).
Here are the features that I like about this fan:
1. Compact but elegant design - It quite small and can be easily placed on desk top, near beds etc
2. Cool pin-point air flow which can be adjusted. It can also be set in the oscillating mode where it moves up-to 70 degree angle.
3. It can be controlled via remote control and has a magnet to hold the remote so that you don't lose it
4. It provides you status of filter, fan speed via a small LED in the front. It can be set to night mode to dim the LED, set the sleep timer.
The not so good:
1. No connectivity with dyson app or alexa etc as it does not have wi-fi
2. At $350, it is a bit pricy
Overall, I recommend it for it's design and the main feature (air purification) if you are willing to spend $350 :)

The Dyson Pure Cool Me is an odd-looking fan that delivers a powerful personal filtered flow of air. It uses a different technology to generate the airflow than other Dyson air product, but still claims to remove 99.97% of gases and pollutants, while delivering a directed air stream.
The overall build quality seems great and it has a couple of interesting features. The bottom of the unit is home to a small round LCD display. It displays all needed information for managing the air level, filter information and other features. The center of device is home to a dome that controls airflow strength by sliding up or down. It has minimal impact and seems like an odd design choice.
It comes with a magnetically attached remote control with a full set of functions – flow level, oscillation, power, filter information and sleep timer. It’s a nice little touch, but I didn’t find it as well engineered as I would have expected. The attachment strength is relatively weak, and it doesn’t always manage to find its way home like you would expect.
Ideally, you’d want this unit in a close quarter’s situation – near a bed, in an office or on a desk. Build quality is what you’d expect from Dyson, no complaints there. The design is a little strange, but this is without a doubt an excellent high-quality filtered fan.

An expensive, but worthwhile investment

When you work around computers all day, the air that room can become stagnant and the temperature can be unbearable. I’ve personally been in rooms that exceed 90 degrees simply because of the equipment within them. To try and remedy the discomfort level in those rooms, I have supplemented my desk set-ups with rechargeable fans. They are great for temporary relief, but when it comes to long-term assistance with airflow, you sometimes want a more powerful, solution. I recently acquired a brand new product from Dyson — the Pure Cool Me Personal Purifying Fan — and it’s been amazing.
Dyson has been working on products that focus on cleaner, cooler air for consumers for quite some time. This latest product is actually aimed at ‘personal’ use for one or two people whereas some of Dyson’s fans are designed to circulate air through a larger area. The Pure Cool Me fan utilized Dyson’s patented Core Flow technology, which allows you to precisely adjust airflow. The fan is ideal for use on a bedside table, desk, or in a child’s room.
The Pure Cool Me fan is not a ‘smart’ fan in the sense the you don’t connect it to a mobile device for control. The fan comes with a battery operated remote control that adjusts the fan’s speed and oscillation. When you pull the fan out of its box, you select a place for it, connect it to power, and then turn it on. Like most oscillating fans, you have the option to have it remain stationary and point at a single spot or person. When you look at the fan it actually resembles a sci-fi droid from a movie in my opinion. You can control the angle of airflow by manually adjusting the center of the dome. It can be moved up or down up to 45 degrees. The front of the fan has a LCD display that shows the mode of the fan as well as the speed. It will also show info on the filter and the timer.
While I don’t have a good method of testing the air quality in my office, which is where I installed the Dyson fan, I do believe that it has helped quite a bit. I have left it on 24/7 for several days and it hasn’t seemed to be a problem for the fan. It hasn’t felt hot or seemed strained in any way. My office is a main thoroughfare in our house and people are constantly walking through it. This kicks up dust and other air particles that are hiding in the carpet. I’ve noticed that since I’ve had the fan running in the office that dust hasn’t been collecting on table tops as much and the air just seems less stagnant. The fan itself is incredibly powerful and it’s helped me on more than one occasion when I’ve overheated. At this point it’s difficult to say whether or not it’s worth the investment since it’s quite expensive compared to other air purifiers and fans, but I do believe it will last much longer than its rivals.

Quiet and yet powerful fan / Air purifier. Great bedside fan too and perfect for small rooms, and you don’t have to think about the filter coz you don’t have to replace it that often. Improves air quality in my room, perfect for someone who has dust and pollen allergies. It has a remote control that’s easy to use. Has different set timers and night mode too.

I needed a fan that offered a forceful blast of air, but also purified clean air .....as we have allergy year round issues in the house along one whose asthma is easily triggered.
I cannot say enough about this product and the wonders that it has done. We are all fighting over it and plan to buy one for every room.
No more setting a fan when crawling in to bed and sneezing as it starts up, cleaning it out all the time with the hassle of that, when assembly back together never is the same. This is so convenient, effective portable and does the job. Rooms smells good the dust is gone and air in the face is clean air!
Ease of operation is great and very quiet. The auto dim screen at night an added feature that makes this all around awesome. Dyson thought of everything, from the functionality with a double filter and the purpose, to the engineering for cold air and then the overall appearance (it looks as contemporary fits in every room perfectly). The monetary investment with Dyson has again proven to be worthwhile, for sure.

This review is for the Dyson - BP01 Pure Cool Me 290 Sq. Ft. Personal Air Purifier and Fan - White/Silver
This personal size fan sits right by my desk. When I come in hot from outside I just crank this up to get direct cool airflow with its little remote.
Works perfectly, and looks good doing it. People that come over always say, that is cool, what is it. Never gets old.

I needed something stronger than a small desk fan to keep myself comfortable in my home office space. As are so many others, I'm remote fulltime due to the pandemic. I'm in a spare room that measures about 12' x 12' and is warmer than the rest of the house (less AC airflow for some reason). I often keep my door closed for privacy during online meetings, which makes it warmer. Rather than put in a ceiling fan (we rent), I thought I'd give this a try. I currently have it on the floor about 4' from me on my right. On setting #5 it is quiet enough to not be heard on video conferences. It reminds me of the white noise in the office which disappears from consciousness unless you listen for it. What is truly amazing is that somehow I feel a bit chilly now in what is normally a fairly warm room. I set it on oscillate to further circulate the air in the room and it does an amazing job of that. Very slick product, great little remote and air purification is a bonus that I did not need yet am happy to have. Worth every penny.

Best fan ever plus it has purifier in it as well. I work in a salon in my own private room. It gets very hot with all the blow dryers, etc. this is perfect. Small enough not to take up a lot of room and quiet. 100% recommend. I own another fan from dyson at home and can live without it.

The fan moves air at different speeds as set by a remote control. Additionally there is a filter, that refreshes the air being moved. It is easy to use out of the box. Also, the remote allows you to not only adjust speed, but also whether or not you want it to move from side to side.

Expensive little machine. But it holds all the bad stuff inside unlike some machines that just blows it right back out. Washable filter would of been nice, but performs really good. I use it for my allergies sitting at the opposite end of the bedroom and the air breezes nicely. Power levels one or two is good enough for me, and its super quiet. I want to buy the bigger one for the living room but I have to save up for it, price for that one is a couple hundred dollars more.

My wife has chronic respiratory failure and got very sick from the Saharan dust last year. We purchased this when hearing we were getting hit with it again this year. It saved us. She did not get sick this time, and it keeps pet dander and everything clear in the room. It worked so well, we purchased a larger unit for the living room that covers 800 sq ft (basically the living room, kitchen, formal dining and entrance way). The units are expensive, but they work!

What can I say? It works as expected.
- It reminds me a bit of R2D2, though a bit pricier.
- We keep it on a setting of 3 (out of 10, I believe) and it's quiet enough to sleep with, in the same room. Higher settings deliver a noticeably strong air flow. It's not a wimp.
- One caveat: both times I visited a Best Buy store for a replacement filter (always thinking ahead), they did not have any replacement filters for this unit.

I have bought 3 Dyson air purifiers in various models and for my needs this fit well in the bedroom. It did not take up much space and delivered cool clean air. We replaced a ceiling fan in Master bedroom that had sun exposure which heated up the room. This let us keep the room cool but enjoy the chandelier that replaced the fan.
