Whether it\u2019s the Thermomix TM7 that can literally do everything in the kitchen, or a multi-styler that curls, straightens and blow-dries your hair all at once, we now live in a world where clever, multi-use gadgets are designed to make life that little bit easier.<\/p>\n<p>Now that winter is here, appliances like heaters and the best dehumidifiers start coming out of storage \u2013 only to be packed away again once temperatures rise. However, these days, there are also products that can do both heating and cooling, and Dyson is the latest brand to jump on board with the brand new Hot+Cool HF1.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-seasonal\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<aside data-block-type=\"embed\" data-render-type=\"fte\" data-skip=\"dealsy\" data-widget-type=\"seasonal\" class=\"hawk-root\"\/>\n<p id=\"823753e1-b68c-4cd8-b446-900b5bd791fc-2\">As someone who is constantly cold but somehow still manages to overheat at night, I decided to set the HF1 up next to my bed and test it for a whole month to see whether it&#8217;s really worth it \u2013 and you\u2019ll find my full thoughts below.<\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"pretty-verdict\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet=\"\" class=\"pt-3 pb-4 mb-4 border-b border-solid border-[#333]\">\n        <span class=\"&#10;            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t-[#333] after:border-t after:border-solid &#10;            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t-[#333] before:border-t before:border-solid&#10;            font-article-heading pb-3 !text-base font-bold uppercase sm:text-sm text-[#333] flex custom-thumbnail-list-styles\"><br \/>\n            Best picks for you<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-53ac0426-20b0-4374-8268-dd119122a73f\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"dyson-hot-cool-hf1-review-price-and-availability-3\">Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review: price and availability <\/h2>\n<p id=\"c04881dc-73be-4e68-8f3e-9efc2342685e\">The Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 has an RRP of \u00a3399.99 and is available from a number of selected retailers.

There\u2019s a magnetic base that the unit sits on, and that\u2019s pretty much it.<\/p>\n<p>Like many of Dyson\u2019s other appliances, the Hot+Cool HF1 comes with the familiar Dyson-style magnetic remote, which neatly stores on top of the device itself. The remote includes buttons for power, oscillation, fan speed and temperature control, as well as options to enable sleep mode, set a timer and turn on the child lock.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"241c5145-dd06-40e7-be1b-c4f194ca0ddb\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-1920-80.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-1600-80.jpg.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-1280-80.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-768-80.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-415-80.jpg.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-360-80.jpg.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/fg7763ChZvypD9fzAbZfgY-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: Lizzie Wilmot \/ T3)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"0189a574-d341-491b-9408-674098860e9b\">One big advantage the HF1 has over similar appliances is app integration. Through the Dyson app, you get access to a much more advanced range of settings, historical temperature readings, outdoor air quality data and easy remote control. I already use the Dyson app with several of my other Dyson products \u2013 including the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/vacuum-cleaners\/dyson-washg1-review\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/vacuum-cleaners\/dyson-washg1-review\">WashG1 and the Dyson Airwrap i.d. \u2013 so adding another device was quick and painless.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-Cc2fmURt9LUd7SSEiEZrBD\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-Cc2fmURt9LUd7SSEiEZrBD slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Get all the latest news, reviews, deals and buying guides on gorgeous tech, home and active products from the T3 experts<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Since my smart home is based around Amazon Alexa, I also connected the HF1 to the Alexa app so I could control it using my Amazon Echo Spot, which also lives on my bedside table.<\/p>\n<p>The process is slightly different to other smart devices, as you have to link Dyson through the Alexa app by logging into your Dyson account. This takes a little time, but I\u2019ve covered the full process in my guide on how to connect Dyson appliances to Amazon Alexa if you want a step-by-step walkthrough.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"8fcc9b4c-3e06-49a1-8301-3679f21017e4\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:2000px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1920-80.png.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1600-80.png.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1280-80.png.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1024-80.png.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-768-80.png.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-415-80.png.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-360-80.png.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-320-80.png.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY.png\" alt=\"Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1920-80.png 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1600-80.png 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1280-80.png 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-1024-80.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-768-80.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-415-80.png 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-360-80.png 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY-320-80.png 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY.png\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/U7jBQ5j3BFVA8M8bMxPZYY.png\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: Lizzie Wilmot \/ T3)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"dyson-hot-cool-hf1-review-design-and-features-3\">Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review: design and features<\/h2>\n<p id=\"b816a0d4-1a4e-4e4e-9f25-13d651a53c2d\">The HF1 delivers both heating and cooling in one compact, bladeless unit, making it ideal for switching between seasons without cluttering your home with multiple appliances. Dyson\u2019s Air Multiplier technology draws in surrounding air and projects it smoothly and powerfully, giving consistent airflow whether you\u2019re trying to cool down or warm up a space.<\/p>\n<p>The HF1 offers ten fan speeds and multiple oscillation angles, and the combination of oscillation plus the manual tilt design helps distribute air evenly around the room. When it comes to heating, it uses power-dense ceramic plates alongside the Air Multiplier system to warm spaces quickly \u2013 with Dyson claiming it can raise a room\u2019s temperature by around 1\u00b0C in under two minutes.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"65130822-0a9e-4cc5-b31e-e99f779d184d\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:3884px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.26%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1920-80.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1600-80.jpg.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1280-80.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-768-80.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-415-80.jpg.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-360-80.jpg.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY.jpg\" alt=\"Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1920-80.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1600-80.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1280-80.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-768-80.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-415-80.jpg 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-360-80.jpg 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HBY7uB5DpsuVGWN4HxdDVY.jpg\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: Lizzie Wilmot \/ T3)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"7e774c89-53b0-47c8-a001-b0b1a28ca40b\">Aesthetically, the HF1 sticks closely to Dyson\u2019s minimalist design language, featuring a clean white and silver finish that fits neatly into modern interiors. It\u2019s also very lightweight yet sturdy at the same time, so you can move it around easily when necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Safety has clearly been thought through too. With no exposed blades or heating elements, the HF1 is safer to use around children and pets. There\u2019s also automatic shut-off if the unit is tipped over, a child lock, a sleep mode with whisper-quiet operation and a dimmed display for nighttime use, as well as a timer that lets you choose when it turns off.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"156f5f4d-d63a-4ece-86d4-bd999c782088\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1920-80.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1600-80.jpg.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1280-80.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-768-80.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-415-80.jpg.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-360-80.jpg.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY.jpg\" alt=\"Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1920-80.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1600-80.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1280-80.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-768-80.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-415-80.jpg 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-360-80.jpg 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/53m9h8CPgAKqUQPNuocRUY.jpg\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: Lizzie Wilmot \/ T3)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-2cf95784-8d53-471f-b056-6aa282be862d\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"dyson-hot-cool-hf1-review-performance-3\">Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review: performance<\/h2>\n<p id=\"04999fa3-626d-422b-aaa3-aa67199435f4\">Testing the Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 has been really successful, and as someone who\u2019s very protective of both her sleep and what earns pride of place on her bedside table, I\u2019ve been really pleased with it.<\/p>\n<p>Sleeping with a fan on is one of life\u2019s little pleasures that I know I\u2019m probably not meant to enjoy,<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/wellness\/expert-reveals-the-dangerous-reason-why-you-should-never-sleep-with-a-fan-on\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/wellness\/expert-reveals-the-dangerous-reason-why-you-should-never-sleep-with-a-fan-on\"> according to the experts \u2013 so having a 2-in-1 heater and fan has felt a bit revolutionary. It\u2019s been lovely having the heater on in the mornings to make those cold starts a little easier, and then switching to the fan for an hour at night to help me drift off to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I noticed about the HF1 is just how quiet it is, which makes it ideal for bedrooms and home offices. When sleeping, I didn\u2019t really go above fan speed level two, but even at higher speeds it\u2019s still impressively unobtrusive. The heater is slightly louder, which is worth noting, but given how I\u2019ve been using it, it hasn\u2019t been an issue at all.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"504c6d2d-8c08-478a-b977-e37acffd7a08\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1280px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-768-80.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-415-80.jpg.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-360-80.jpg.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL.jpg\" alt=\"Dyson Hot + Cool HF1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1280-80.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-768-80.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-415-80.jpg 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-360-80.jpg 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/B2HtjZdQtr2ZjNvsYeNSzL.jpg\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: Dyson)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"98c657f2-7dc9-42aa-bda2-b415c1fd86f0\">When it comes to controls, I\u2019ll be honest \u2013 I haven\u2019t really been using the remote. I found it a little slow to respond, taking longer than expected for the device to register inputs. Instead, I\u2019ve found it much easier to control the HF1 either by voice through Alexa or directly via the Dyson app. So if you already have a smart home setup and plan to use it that way, you should be absolutely fine.<\/p>\n<p>All of the other controls worked perfectly when used remotely, especially the safety features and automatic shut-off. During the first few days of testing, I accidentally knocked the fan over whilst making the bed and it immediately turned itself off, which gave me a brief moment of panic before I realised that\u2019s exactly what it\u2019s designed to do.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I did notice when using the heater setting is that the unit itself gets very hot. Whilst I don\u2019t think this affects performance, it did make me a little cautious about how long I\u2019d leave the heater running. I\u2019ve tested heaters in the past that don\u2019t get quite this hot, so it\u2019s definitely something to keep in mind \u2013 especially when deciding where to place it and how long to use it for.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from those small points, I\u2019ve really enjoyed using the HF1 and would happily recommend it to anyone who asks, especially if you\u2019re looking for a reliable, year-round bedside companion.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"dyson-hot-cool-hf1-review-verdict-3\">Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review: verdict<\/h2>\n<p id=\"8f5d982c-e7b6-47d8-8979-e226b81cc068\">Overall, the Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 has proven to be a useful and well-designed addition to my bedroom setup. It\u2019s quiet, compact and incredibly convenient to have both heating and cooling in one sleek unit, making it ideal for year-round use. Whilst the remote isn\u2019t the most responsive and the heater does get noticeably hot, the smart controls, strong safety features and great performance make up for it. If you\u2019re looking for a premium bedside fan heater that fits seamlessly into your smart home, the HF1 is easy to recommend.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-a7a46a8f-1767-477e-933b-bb1ede478951\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"dyson-hot-cool-hf1-review-alternatives-to-consider-3\">Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 review: alternatives to consider <\/h2>\n<p id=\"57a73715-63be-4b80-b49a-c0ee1b1cef18\">One of the most similar products to the Dyson HF1 currently on the market is the<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/shark-turboblade-cool-heat\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/home-living\/shark-turboblade-cool-heat\"> Shark TurboBlade Cool + Heat. However, whilst it feels sturdy and looks premium, it\u2019s noticeably heavier and bulkier, so I\u2019d still recommend the HF1 if you\u2019re after something more compact. It also lacks app connectivity and smart controls, which is a big downside for me.<\/p>\n<p>Another alternative worth considering is the DREO Smart Whole-Room Heater and Circulator 714S, particularly if you\u2019re looking for a more affordable option. It offers an impressive range of temperature settings, modes and oscillation options, and it\u2019s even more lightweight and compact than the HF1. Our reviewer did mention some frustrations with the remote, so in that sense, they\u2019re not entirely dissimilar.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-567d8c7a-089b-41f0-9bc3-5aab204225d6\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<aside data-model-name=\"Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 heater and cooling fan\" data-widget-type=\"review\" data-render-type=\"editorial\" class=\"hawk-root\">\n<div class=\"hawk-main-editorial-container\">\n<p>Today&#8217;s best Dyson Hot+Cool HF1 heater and cooling fan deals<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Long gone are the days when you needed a separate appliance for every single thing.
