Happy #FirstDayofFall from the Hunter #design team! for over 40 years We invented the ceiling fan See how we’ve been changing the game since 1886.Here's something you might not know about PC Labs: They can get pretty cold. I keep a heater running on the floor under my desk at pretty much all times, but I've learned that temperature can be subjective. My editor, Jamie Lendino, for instance, is wearing a short sleeve shirt and has a desk fan on as I write this. [It's warm in here. -Ed] We might not be able to agree on what constitutes fan or heater weather, but with the right device, we might not have to. Enter the Dyson Hot + Cool AM05. It's an absolutely gorgeous appliance that does double-duty to bring you the best of both worlds: It works as a powerful fan when you're hot, or provides fast, even heat distribution when you're cold. It's safer and easier to clean than traditional options, but at $399.99, it's very expensive, and rather noisy.

The AM05 shares a similar design with the AM06 we reviewed earlier this year (the AM06 is a fan only, though). It measures 22.8 by 7.9 by 7.9 inches (HWD) in total, and features an oblong hoop (what Dyson calls the air loop) set atop a sturdy cylindrical base. It comes in black-and-nickel, iron-and-blue, and white-and-silver versions. I reviewed the black-and-nickel model, which has a black base with a nickel heating and cooling fan. No matter the color, it's a striking, modern design that should complement just about any interior design scheme. It's probably one of the only fans or heaters you'd actually want people to see.

To the left of the display is a Power button, along with buttons to adjust the airflow speed. You can choose a low flow of air to spot heat, or a higher flow for a whole room. To the right of the display you get buttons to control the thermostat.

Pressing the blue thermostat button will make the temperature cooler and change the light around the Power button to blue. The red button will increase the temperature and change the Power button light from blue to red. Finally, a button all the way to the right toggles oscillation control, letting the fan rotate from left to right in an 80-degree arc. Unless you want the fan blowing directly on you, you'll get the best results through oscillation.enso aroma diffuser air purifier humidifier You get the same set of controls on an included remote. dualmax air purifier reviewIt measure 3 by 1.25 by 0.25 inches (HWD), and has a slight curve in the middle. ozone lite air purifier titanium dioxide light bulb

That curve allows you to dock the remote magnetically on top of the heater, which I found very convenient. The remote has a good range, but it needs to be pointed toward the front of the control base in order to work. The fan can tilt to direct the flow of air upward or downward by 10 degrees. To tilt it, you must hold the base while gently pushing the air loop forward or backward; it's not motorized like the oscillation movement. I found the upward tilt to be helpful when the fan is set on the floor. Since there are no visible moving parts, seeing the AM05 in action is kind of magical. Its motor draws in six gallons of air per second at the base of the machine. The air is accelerated through a 2.5mm opening and passes over an airfoil-shaped ramp, which guides its direction. This airflow draws in the surrounding air, and sends it through the loop as well, effectively multiplying the amount of air that moves through the fan. Dyson calls this Air Multiplier technology, and it works—the AM05 delivers surprisingly powerful airflow.

In heater mode, two Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) ceramic plates are used to heat the air as it passes through the machine. The Hot + Cool has an internal thermostat that maintains the temperature between 33 and 99 degrees Fahrenheit (you can set the desired temperature on the machine between 32 and 99 degrees). When it hits the desired temperature, the machine automatically turns itself off. If it senses a drop in temperature, though, it turns back on, which is a good way to make sure you're not wasting energy. According to Dyson, the machine costs approximately 30 percent less to heat a whole room than conventional fan heaters, and can lower energy bills by 20 percent if used with air conditioning.
