Dyson, a multinational company founded by British inventor James Dyson, was founded in the United Kingdom. From there, they supply home appliances and other electronics to markets around the world.
One of the many offerings is the Dyson Pure AM07 fan, an innovative, bladeless attempt to combat the worrisome British summer heat that plagues a nation with limited air conditioning.
With a modern, bladeless design, this Dyson product comes with all the features you might expect from this name brand.
The Dyson AM07 tower fan uses special Air Multiplier technology to create a powerful stream of uninterrupted airflow. It features streamlined air channels that reduce the noise caused by turbulence, resulting in a quiet operation. The AM07 can also be programmed to turn off after preset intervals ranging from 15 minutes to 9 hours, and with one-touch oscillation control airflow can be directed around a room.

A sleep timer, air multiplier, the Dyson link app, all of it is packed into an especially compact yet innovative design of fan.
The Dyson Cool AM07 tower fan, much like the Dyson AM10 and Dyson Pure Cool Link after it, provides a steady airflow stream while also acting as an air multiplier and air purifier.
The main difference between a Dyson fan and air purifiers is that an upright model AM07 Dyson tower fan can do both jobs at once!
An AM07 Dyson tower fan's key difference from other models however, is the compact and portable size of the product.
So let's get a closer look at the Dyson AM fan range and see what makes a Dyson bladeless fan worth the high end price tag.
What is Dyson Best Known For?
Dyson is not really famous for making fans, but for making other household appliances that are essential to family life.
By improving the quality of life for homeowners around the world, Dyson has been able to build a global empire in many markets and make a fortune in the process.
It all starts with the vacuum cleaner. That's right, ways to remove hair, dust and other debris from carpets and rugs are what has brought a global company to the size it is now.
Dyson's product and design philosophy is simple: make reliable, high-quality products, and make products that enhance the customer experience.
Cordless vacuums, detachable vacuums and powerful cyclone technology improve the tedious job of vacuuming at home.
Easy replacement of filters is also a vital innovation, preventing unnecessary mess when emptying the vacuum for the next cleaning session.
When it comes to hair care, Dyson has also conquered the market for all types of hair and beauty products. From irons and curling irons to hair dryers and hair styling guides.
Lighting has also become part of Dyson's extensive development catalogue, and air handling is probably the most important element of today's products.
Depending on the treatment needed, air quality can be improved in a number of ways. A humid environment can cool down, and a stale climate can be improved by air filtration.
Unique Features of the Dyson AM07
The Dyson Cool AM07 can act as a Dyson air multiplier. If you're not familiar with the Dyson fan range however, this can sound completely alien to you.
Dyson's "air multipliers" mimic the fan blades on Dyson's connecting towers. The Dyson Pure Cool Tower fan is no exception in this regard.
The signature vaneless loop design features an air multiplier that draws in a lot of air, giving you direct control over the ambient temperature.
Combining this with the Dyson link app and the remote control packed with your air multiplier, and the customer suddenly has control for usability on all the fan's features.
Connectivity for smartphone control does have its drawbacks however, as wireless control can be patchy depending on signal strength and other links between the Dyson link app and the fan.
Not to mention, you can find a remote control fan for far cheaper than the Dyson Cool AM07 tower fan. So do you really need all purpose control?
Control for usability via preset speed controls is one thing, but many other fans with a bladeless design are starting to replace soft touch buttons with a speed dial.
While the bladeless design isn't wholly unique, the air multiplier and dual function as an air purifier is brand specific to the Dyson fan.
Dyson air multiplier technology and the Dyson link app are really the main separation of a luxury Dyson Cool AM07 and other fans with bladeless technology.
Benefits of the Dyson AM07 Tower Fan
Other fans with link technology are not as advanced or high end as Dyson, which gives the user personal climate control.
The connectivity for smartphone control provides a reliable backup option not found in another remote control fan, and wireless control is one of modern life's preferred luxuries.
Preset speed controls, although going out of fashion for a product like the Dyson Cool AM07, provide a simple and effective means for personal climate control.
Bladeless technology is also an amazing design, preventing noise levels from getting too extreme like the constantly moving parts of a bladed fan.

It features streamlined air channels that reduce the noise caused by turbulence, resulting in a quiet operation. The AM07 can also be programmed to turn off after preset intervals ranging from 15 minutes to 9 hours, and with one-touch oscillation control airflow can be directed around a room.

The level of noise with a Dyson Cool AM07 is less annoying than the high pitched noise in non-Dyson fans with bladeless technology and a modern design philosophy.
The entire Dyson AM range offers something special and unique, from the AM07 to the Dyson cool am08 air multiplier pedestal fan.
Even if preset speed controls, personal climate control for usability on a smartphone, and a Dyson air multiplier aren't for you, you are sure to find something special about a Dyson fan.
Dual mode Dyson fans can clean your air of irritating pollutants, meaning you will have improved respiratory health with prolonged use of a bladeless Dyson tower.
You might expect a bulky design from bladeless fan technology, but in fact the AM07 Dyson tower fan is as compact and portable as they come.
Some users even pack this Dyson AM model into suitcases to take on holiday and vacations, because they are just that light in weight and small in size.
Downsides to the Dyson AM07 Fan
One of the main downsides of using Dyson fans with link technology is that the Dyson AM range is rather infamous for getting dirty fast.
Wireless control is pointless if the Dyson bladeless air multiplier begins to collect dirt and dust from the air.
Thankfully all you need is a damp cloth to wipe down dual mode Dyson fans, however this can still be bothersome.
A damp cloth will need to be used with caution, so as to not get any vital components of a Dyson air multiplier soaked and broken.
When it comes to a Dyson fan, a damp cloth will do the trick, but in reality the Dyson air multiplier isn't what is causing the dirt collection.
In fact, the nature of how the Dyson air multiplier works means that the air purifier aspect of dual mode Dyson fans isn't as effective as it should be.
If you use the Dyson air multiplier, then the air purifier has too much air to clean and cool at once, meaning very little gets actually purified.
Since most Dyson bladeless fans come with a Dyson air multiplier, this is obviously a serious downside to the entire range of fans with link technology.
Air multiplier technology is a given in all Dyson fans with link technology and the Dyson link app, meaning that you are paying for a feature that makes your fan worse in some aspects.
Other Specs for the Dyson AM07 Tower Fan
Avoiding a bulky design is the main purpose and intentional design of this particular Dyson fan, and ultimately the design team was successful.
Without a bulky design, the dyson fan AM07 is left with an amazing design, suitable for transport and use without hogging valuable floor space.
Even without this intentional design however, features like a sleep timer make this specific Dyson fan a favourite on warm summer nights.
A sleep timer is also more environmentally friendly, as the sleep timer shuts off the fan after an extended period of inactivity.
That means if you happen to forget to switch the AM07 Dyson fan off, the sleep timer will stop you wasting money on powering it and keep your utility bills low.
As well as a sleep timer, an automatic night time mode can help you get to sleep on an especially warm and humid night.
The automatic night time mode acts differently from the sleep timer, which is designed to save you money and power.
Instead, a press of the power button and the automatic night time mode will gradually decrease in power (and noise) to help you get to sleep soundly.
Customizable timers are also available on the wide range of Dyson fans, allowing you to cater to your own cooling needs more effectively.
Third party reviews also rave about the pedestal base. The tower base is a common concern among cheaper tower fan models.
However, the tower base of the AM07 is a sturdy one, and easy to assemble. This means the pedestal base will not rattle and end up as a sound machine during oscillation.
With a solid tower base, you can't go far wrong, and this pedestal base comes with more economical prices than some other Dyson products.
Although still in a high end price category, an impressive 2 year warranty on the fan means you needn't worry too much about breakages. Some other replacement parts also come with a 1 year warranty.
How Powerful is the Dyson AM07 Fan?
Since Dyson makes such amazing products, with the price tag being the biggest downside, what makes the AM07 such a featured product?
One impressive feature is the 350 degree oscillation. That's right, that's a near full 360 degree oscillation on this compact fan stand.
This is a very handy feature if you want your fan in the middle of a room, with a complete circular 360 degrees of oscillation coverage.
Horizontal oscillation function also helps spread the cool air more effectively, essentially spreading a cold blanket of air like spreading butter on toast.
This portable unit knocks lower end models out the water, and even most middle range pedestal models too.
As far as tower fan models go, this amazing unit doesn't miss out on too much power due to its smaller size and weight.
If you want colder temperature air, the AM07 Dyson fan will get the job done and do it in decent enough time.
Target temperatures are easy to reach, not matter the air temperature you're actually aiming for. Precise airflow settings do wonders for consistent airflow.
Current models of lower quality are available, and many current models will be cheap imitations of the AM07 upright model.
However, don't let their cheapness deceive you. Tower fan models with an intentional design catered for a steady airflow stream and to reach peak airflow are hard to come by.
Cooling the room for a colder temperature air is one thing, but getting consistent airflow for that colder temperature air to reach the whole room is another.
How Does a Bladeless Fan Work?
Bladeless fans operate with no moving parts or choppy blades while utilising the properties of air pressure and the pull of gravity.

Air travels through the dome through the opening and creates a slow-moving pocket of air in the dome that travels through the dome of the bladeless fan.
For Dyson, that means creating a vacuum of space that air desperately tries to fill before it is expelled and passed through the space that needs to be cooled. All without visible blades.
Unlike traditional fans, which have permanently rotating and choppy blades, a bladeless fan doesn't move at all because it has no moving parts or visible blades.
Therefore, it can run continuously without making the noise like a traditional fan, with choppy blades making the fan resemble more of a sound machine.
Our Review
So how does the Dyson AM07 compare to other current models? Does this upright model allow you to reach target temperatures, and does that make it woth the £200+ pricing?
If you want decent air temperature around your room, in a compact enough fan that you can actually travel with, we have to say yes.
Key features of this fan set it apart from the other wide range of fan options, but the range of capabilities in Dyson products is unmatched.
Some fans resemble a hulking satellite dish-like machine, and honestly most Dyson fans are a bit too expensive for us to say they are worth the investment.
However, the AM07 is just the right mix of white noise sound machine, portability, air multiplier and purifier, and regular old tower fan.
