I'm a woman of a certain age with disability who overheats at night and throughout the day. It became unbearable especially in this summer heatwave and normal fans just weren't cutting it. The the noise of a normal fan on full force is also deafening at night. It got so bad I decided to sod the cost and googled 'Best fans ever' and came across this one. So bought it on an impulse thinking i'll send it back if its crap.. So it came today and rather than read the manual -as my eyes are bad,-i watched your vid on how to use it... That was about 40 minutes ago, and i've already ordered another one for the kitchen. It's all singing, all dancing, like something out of a sci fi film and for the first time this months i have very welcome goose bumps due to the cool breeze. Who knew a fan could be so refreshing. This will make such a difference to my life... it's the simple things.
This is great to hear. Thanks for sharing this.
Bought one a Month ago, Got to say it's Brilliant. with oscillating sideways and vertically it cools my room down quickly and as i live in a small flat I turn it on full in the early mornings, open all the windows and change the air in the flat, Super quiet and classy design.
Bought on the strength of your review and super pleased.... Many thanks!!!!
This is really great to hear. Thanks for sharing here.
Thank you for reviewing the Meaco fan - I was worried out the the noise but clearly have nothing to worry about, so I will definitely purchase one
Thanks Sue, it's a great choice.
Just ordered 2 of these to replace an old school oscillating fan - i got really exhausted running from side to side to stay in the airstream with the old one but i've seen (and not heard} the Meaco 1056 in action and i was blown away by it ! It really does cool the air in the room very efficiently and i was impressed with the degree of control you have with the timer etc so well done Meaco and thanks for the review.
Awesome to hear Stephen. Stay cool this summer 😎
@R The remote push buttons are a bit of an art to use - when i received it i tried the remote and unless there is a click of any pushbutton - nothing happens. I've just tried mine again because i don't use the remote and results are intermittent having just tried it. All the micro pushbuttons make a discernible click when operated on mine. These fans are absolutely fantastic and i have bought a second one for upstair rooms plus another for a family member. Any help ?
I've been reviewing cooling fans for my bedroom and this is by far the best I've seen, was looking for silence, remote, timer, this has it all, loving the design, gonna order from John Lewis 👍👍👍
Thanks Susan, I was impressed, it is still working well today.
Thank you for the review and demo. About to buy one.
Hope you enjoy it!
Best review of this product on RUclips! Thanks!
Thanks so much 🤓👍🏻
Thanks for the video, really well made, and your commentary is nice and clean.
Many thanks :D
Thanks. Got this fan now and totally agree!
Awesome 🤓👍🏻
Thanks for this, looking for a fan!
Many thanks.
Thanks for the review ... Picked one up today after watching your review .... you weren't wrong! Great fan! ... Thanks again
Many thanks 😊
Thanks. Based on your review it looks a certain for me to buy.
I love mine.
Thanks a lot. I decided to buy one (in the middle od winter), and the fan is wonderful.
Glad I could help!
just ordered one as it has very good reviews, including this one... im melting as I type this, but should be arriving tomorrow so we shall see. thanks for the upload 👌
Awesome. Stay cool 😎
I have it. Also a fan of the fan. I love that it's quiet and that it rotates. I like to use it at low speeds for a pleasant breeze
Great choice.
Wow! Great review, Definitely gonna buy this, getting ready for future UK heatwave.
Great choice.
Nice review. Just ordered. Thank you.
🤓👍🏻great choice.
Just ordered mine a few hours ago and paid for next day delivery. Will let you know what I think of it once I’ve used it. But looks very good for these sweltering July nights.
Awesome choice :D
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO AS IT HAS HELPED SO MUCH. IM STILL WAITING ON MY AIR CON BEING DELIVERED.
Glad it helped!
"If I can just pick this up..", or sneaked a little something else in there at 1:23? Haha! Just playing, thanks for the review.
🤓👍🏻
Thanks for the review! I'm looking at your other reviews and I'm torn between this, the 650 and the 360.
Hard choice. They also have a new range just announced too.
I have one of these and I must say it’s the best fan I’ve ever owned. 👍👍
Good to hear 🤓👍🏻
Brilliant fan. Lovely and quiet too
Agreed. Great choice.
Cool review thanks will be getting one before the summer ☝️
Great choice.
Carforumwanker
What Costco can’t find in my local or was it online?
Never too old to collect figures mate!!! Respect! :)
🤓🤓🤓👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻cheers.
Nice fan will need it for hot summer months 😄👌
It’s a great choice Ben 🤓👍🏻
I’m ready to buy one after reading and watching reviews. Everyone asking about cleaning it, there is a video on you tube I’ve seen by the manufacturer that shows you how it comes apart. Can’t wait to use it. Need it in the bedroom, I’m a woman of a certain age and the night sweats keep me awake. The fan I have makes such a racket, I can’t have it on at night, I’m a light sleeper so I need complete silence. Hopefully, I will sleep better with this.
Great choice 🤓👍🏻
I bought one 2 years ago. Hands down best fan I've had and I've had a few! Best thing, programme it to run for a few hours in the knowledge it will automatically turn off, ideal when you're going to sleep. And, so quiet that the cat (longhaired) lies right next to it, no fear of it at all.
Excellent choice 🤓👍🏻
I bought the fan and the one plus 5t because of your reviews.. I'm thinking of the pixel 3a XL or one plus 7 pro so looking for your videos on these phones can't wait
That's great to hear. I am really liking the Pixel 3a XL.
@@geekanoids looks great value. The only concern I have is the battery as I want it to be at least as good as my one plus 5t so I'm waiting for the battery comparisons tests to drop. I think with the processor and bigger battery should be a real good one
I'VE JUST ORDERED THIS SO IM WAITING FOR IT TO COME. 🙏 AS I COULDN'T BREATH WITH THE HEAT AND MY DOG IS SUFFERING AS WELL SO I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO ARRIVE.
Dave, just got mine today. Really impressed so far. Very powerful and very quiet (although it is the middle of the day). Love the remote. £99 but worth it if like me, you hate the heat.
That's awesome to hear David … have a great (and cool) weekend.
I have just ordered the meaco 1056 and 650 fan for my house as I hate the heat myself especially after July 2022 heat and it could be like this every year it was far too hot being 40 degrees in July and expecting another heatwave in august as well and also looking at getting the meaco 350 as well so have all three fans sizes at some point.
Also maybe next year I will but an air conditioning unit if it is like this again
Great to be prepared. Meaco do some great air conditioners too.
I already owned the hot/cold Dyson fan but really wasn't that impressed, especially the noise at higher speeds. Saw this one on QVC and took the plunge and it really does blow (pardon the pun) the Dyson away. At slower speeds it shifts a LOT more air and is much much quieter than the Dyson as well. Superb fan and probably the best one out there.
This is great news. I was impressed too.
Wow looks like a quality product!
It certainly is. Many thanks.
That is one quiet fan, very impressive. A fan that size moving that much air without too much noise is definitely worth getting.
I didn't know what to expect, but it certainly impressed me.
How quiet are we talking? I'm looking for the quietest fan possible for sleep as any noise bothers me. Can you tell me how many decibels it is on setting one? Thanks.
@@PortlandMan same. Found a better one?
@@Lorten369 klairstein silent storm is far superior in every way 👍
@@inkermanplatoon2210 I bought the 1050. And I'm pretty pleased with it. There are sometimes noise's tho. The longer it runs the louder it gets. But man it 20times better them the old shiet I had. And it can move some serious air, while being quiet. ;) But I'll have to check out the one you mentioned. Please more details.(model nr so on ;)/) And I'll sell this to my parents ;p
So worth it. Energy efficient. Moves serious air. And super low noise. Super recommend it ever after 2020 August.
Awesome to hear 🤓👍🏻
Oh yeah, one thing I was slightly disappointed at, you didn't mention the motors that oscillate the fan. In fact I don't think anybody has talked about them. It's literally silent as it swings up and down, left/right. It's almost like magic how quiet it is as moving side to side.
Thanks for sharing this.
I would like to purchase this fan, however, is it set up for U.S. degree Fahrenheit? And also, I do not see a plug for the outlet. Is this fan also set up for the U.S.? Much wonderful thanks to you for this lovely & informative video.
Many thanks. This is a U.K. fan.
I confirm every thing you said, I love it, own two of them
Good to hear 🤓👍🏻
That is such a quiet fan. Wow, I'll buy one.
It’s a great choice.
we got the 650 which is powered by USB which didn't last but love the fan is this USB also
🤓👍🏻
Can you only control the fan via the remote? I always have second thoughts about electronics (due to the risk of failure rendering it useless) where it's really not needed, and devices depending on batteries - which I suppose the remote control is. If the fan can be controlled directly/manually, then the battery depending remote is not an issue.
You can control manually on the fan too.
That seals the deal, thanks!
i just got my fan today that i orded a week ago damn is comfy i love it already :)
Really good to hear. Just in time for Summer 🤓👍🏻
Dave, just seen that there is a 650 version of this fan. Any idea how this one compares?
I do 👍🏻 video coming real soon, I am impressed.
Hi, thanks for review, which is better in your opinion, this one or the Meaco Fan 650 Portable, thanks
I would say this moves more air.
The 650s now come with USBC ports instead of Micro usb, they are really good but can not shift the air of the1056
they also can not oscillate up and down.
The 1056 needs a plug you could easily run a 650 off a 10000mh power bank for 3 or 4 hours aslong as the power bank supports 12watts (5vx2.4a)
Can you recommend this vs a dyson fan? Great info 🙂
Yes it is very quiet.
Nice review I am planning to get one myself. I have noticed that cheaper knock off on Amazon where specs are identical. I don't know if other manufacturers have copied Meaco or they just brought from a Chinese factory that makes them and stuck on their own branding on the device.
I would stick with the original manufacturer.
Hi . So far I am not over the moon with meaco fans . I have both 1056 and 650 . 650 is being replaced and now 1056 on day 2 , I notice annoying noise on speed 2 and 3 .This is more noticeable when you place the fan in corner , between walls . It's dead quiet on 1 though and setting 4 and up don't make any wierd noise at all too .
Does yours make any abnormal noise ?
Sorry to hear that Robert, ours have been fine.
I recently bought a 650 and it makes an awful noise when oscillating. A few people have had that too, what a pain.
Do you know how I would take the frame of so that I can get into the fan and clean it properly?
This would involve removing screws. Best check with the manufacturer as it may void warranty.
Watch this video it will explain how to remove the cover to clean the fan. Jump to about 12 minutes 30 seconds in the video. You're welcome :-)
ruclips.net/video/8vacJ68J3sk/видео.html
How would compair it to the Vornado 660 or other same size fan circulator fan and the Dreo fan of the likes of the fan you reviewed
I have not tested the Vornado. My money would go on the Meaco.
Hi how do you link the controller to the fan as i haven't got a clue as to how to do it can someone please explain in detail of how to do it as I'm so confused? Thanks in advance
It should be pre linked.
How much does the room temperature drop by on any particular setting, because lets face it, that's the info people really want to know?
Sorry I no longer have this to check.
Hi would you know if it’s possible to actually take apart for cleaning purposes? Cheers
I have taken one apart myself, but best check with the manufacturer in case it effects your warranty.
Cheers just found a video by meaco showing how cheers 🍻.
I wonder about it gathering dust internally, how do you go about cleaning it??
Thanks
It’s possible to take apart for cleaning. I think the manufacturer has a video on their channel showing how to do it.
Can anyone confirm that this fan produces from level 1 to 3 a quite noticeable humming/buzzing sound (probably from the motor, I don't mean the "wind noise") ? My model does this and it freaks me out. But the manufacturer claims it's normal...
There is a very slight whirring noise from the motor.
@@geekanoids Thank you, in that case there must be something wrong with the fan I have
Hi I’ve just got mine from JL but mine is not whisper quite mine has a whine comes and goes on the levels 1 to 2 is this normal.
I have not experienced whine from this one.
Can’t live without this fan…..it’s brilliant but wish someone would tell me how to clean it and what too use.
You have to take apart and clean with a soft cloth or brush.
I have the exactly same fan but it's brand is mistral. I would like to know how do we do the dust cleaning on this fan?
Sorry I no longer have this to check.
you unscrew 2 screws then then front guard comes off, you can also remove the blades easily.
I have had mine 6 months and Have had to clean it twice as it starts to judder with the dust when its oscillating upwards and downwards
@@geekanoids Dave.....wasn’t it good enough for you to keep or get one then??
I bought this two days ago, and goodness me what a godsend in this 30 degree plus heat! Thanks for the review. I thoguht it might look odd in my quite traditional home, but it fits in nicely and is actually quite cute. Reminded me of the movie 'Wall-E' for some reason. I took it up to my bedroom and it's so quiet, there's no way it would wake me. I had it on the lowest setting which was just right in my small room and made a huge difference to the room temperature. Highly recommended.
Awesome news. Glad it’s working well for you.
oooh nice, mine is here tomorrow, but if its as good as the reviews I'm going to be a very happy bunny
Anyone used this in the summer? Does it actually make you feel cooler? If so it will be a lifesaver for my office!
We still use ours, it is nice and quiet and move a nice amount of air.
Links are not working, do you mind if you could give me the name of this product or your direct affiliate link to buy it for Germany? Thanks.
I would try the link to the manufacturer website.
100 quid. I wouldn’t mind a tower version. Cheaper then a dyson... which I have as well
Thanks for your feedback.
Hi geekanoids, any chance you could show how to dismantle this fan for cleaning?
Sorry I no longer have this to check.
@@geekanoids aww, no problem, thanks anyway.
@@geekanoids Which one of the fans did you keep? Why didn't you keep the 1056?
Just bought one based on this review.
Awesome. I hope you like it.
Hi, is it easy to clean though?
A little bit fiddly, but yes, easy enough.
You sound and look bit like martin from friday night dinner, just picked this up was looking at dyson but could not justify £350 for 2 year warranty, looking forward for it to come, thought i'd pick it up now rather then in 2 months when panic covid purchased means I pay double
Great choice 🤓👍🏻
How is it?
Still got it? Is it worth a buy 2 year's later? Or do you know of other low noise fans?
Still hot it, working fine and highly recommended.
@@geekanoids bought it 30% off. OMFreakingG love this fan. At speed 1 it's 3-4 time's better then my super old crappy fan. Way more wattage efficiency 100x less noise. At speed 1 😳 and speed 4 I almost froze. ;P
Would this fan work ok on the floor?
It would, but it’s designed really for desktop use.
So which one is better between 1056 or 360
I would opt for this.
Just bought this from Costco £89 inc vat, its so quiet, perfect for bedroom at night
Great choice.
Was the design inspired by the Mekon?
Sorry I am not sure on this.
How far will the air travel at full speed?
Sorry I no longer have this to check. I would guess at least 20 feet at full speed.
Does the front grille come off for cleaning both the grille and blades?
I have not tested that, but would hope/imagine so.
Just got confirmation from the Manufacturer. Yes it does remove to assist cleaning of grille/blades.
How has the oscilation held up? I've been hearing that it makes a lot of noise not long after it's in use when turning.
Still working fine today.
@@geekanoids Thanks for the reply.
I could’ve used this yesterday 😭
It was certainly a hot day.
loving your very scientific paper blowing test.. now if only I could find one for 99.99 in the UK
Are they OOS on the Meaco website?
@@geekanoids Have been for a while, yes. Will pick one up next week to match the smaller and medium sizes that I already own. Great fans.
Definitely nice and quiet. Do you use them whilst you're gaming?
@@geekanoids but of course ;)
79 pound amazon
You've convinced me. Watched this and then ordered from John Lewis.
Arrives tomorrow.
Good times.
Awesome choice, it's great.
Could i ask how much you paid for this from JL? only asking because i just ordered mine from them as well for £100 so im interested to see what way the price has gone from 10 months ago. Remember looking for quality fans last year and anything with decent reviews was silly money but see a lot more on the market now for competitive pricing
I wish they had this in America :(
Maybe they can ship something, drop them an email.
The loud beep noise this makes when you press a button is really annoying. Cant find a way to mute it. I'm a very light sleeper, and the beep wakes me up.
I will feed this info back to the manufacturer.
Why would you press a button in your sleep?
@@RudyWarman Hi, if a family member who is awake adjusts the fan, the beep can wake someone else up if they are a light sleeper.
So this actually cools the room?
There is no active cooling, but it moves cool air very efficiently.
I think the Dyson fans are the same just move cool air around don't think any generate cool air . I'm torn between a Dyson and one of these which would you recommend?
@@ants80 I am in the same situation hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
@@koraam2433 do the dysons cool down the temp??
AS B don’t think so just heat and cool air it sucks in
Does it cause vibration against the surface its sitting on?
I noticed only very minimal.
There's no such thing like Meacofan on your link description, it's a hassle finding the product itself... how much does it cost, anyway?... If this is not too much trouble for you, also you never mentioned about the power consumption and how many square meters should have a room in order to maintain a proper cooling..!
Current pricing is on the main Meaco website.
Watt usage is 9.5 to 23.5 depending on speed (which is very very efficient). At max speed, it moves 1056 cubic meters an hour.
I own one myself (the household owns 3).. and i dont need more than speed 1 with the fan 5 or so meters away from me (oscillating so i dont get a constant draft on me, or i'd probably get sick).
can it be controlled with Alexa
Not directly, but you could plug into an Alexa controllable smart plug.
what is the frequency of the fan remote ..is it RF OR IR ..as i could reprogram the remote with broad link and then that would work with Alex ..if its 500 mhz on RF or if its IR it should be ok to reprogram it with broad link
FANtastic
Thank you.
How to clean my fan
I think Meaco have a guide on this. It involves removing screws to get to the fan blades. Best check with Meaco.
Watch this video it will explain how to remove the cover to clean the fan. Jump to about 12 minutes 30 seconds in the video. You're welcome :-)
ruclips.net/video/8vacJ68J3sk/видео.html
Would be nice if we could actually buy it, but it seems to be out of stock everywhere.. even the manufacturer.. instead of £99.. people are selling them for twice the price. Scalpers at their best grrrr
Very popular fan.
I love the video very good job but I was mad and you were going to be mad too. I was angry because when I clicked on your link it just showed your store and it wasn't a link to the fan which it should have been and I continue to scroll down and search for the thing and could not so I clicked on the main link below yours and purchase the band through them. I would recommend if you're going to give a link that is going to make your money you should get the link to that item I'm not every item in your store so the customer has to search by scrolling as there is no search key where you can put in the model number and it comes right up. That fan was up there in price so you lost some money.
Thanks for your feedback on this. I will try to fix the links.
less than £70 at costco
Great price, thanks for sharing this info.
@@geekanoids : Tested today. Absolutely amazing .
Super low noise level ? Really ? Yes ,on speed 1 but then it is rather useless. From speed 6 and up it is fine but ....the same noise as any other fan. 169 euros is a lot of money .
Thanks for sharing your opinion on this.
DC motor quieter than AC motor
🤓👍🏻
👍👍👍
I bought one of these fans frm Argos after the reviews and I can honestly say it’s a massive disappointment…. It’s loud in comparison to my German made klairstein silent storm pedestal fan… I thought it must be faulty as it made a strange sound especially on speed number 3… so I took it back and got a replacement and it’s exactly the same so i took that back for a full refund, over priced waste of money in my opinion, yes it’s quiet compared to some fans but not by much… klairstein is far superior and it cost me £72.50 with free delivery and it’s a pedestal! I was tempted to buy the meaco humidifier but I think I’ll pass and go with klairstein , i really wanted to like the meaco , sadly it’s a let down… 😕
Sorry to hear that.
I like that' fan, too. But still: it's made in china, of plastic and totally overprized. So no need to praise it like a masterpiece of technology.
Thanks for sharing your opinion on this.
