what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy comm and this is a little bit of an unusual one for us today we're taking a look at the Dyson air multiplier and if you're wondering what the hell is an air multiplier it is a fancy ass name for a fan but this isn't really a fan I mean it does what a fan does but it does so in an untraditional way without any blades and supposedly that's going to give you a different experience than what a traditional fan would give you instead of getting an intermittent sort of a breeze this is going to give you a direct and streamlined breeze anyway we'll try and get it out of the box here and see if it stands up to all the expectations after all this is not a cheap fan help here it goes for around 400 bucks so I mean I doubt that it's worth that I doubt that most people would consider it worthwhile but the fact of the matter is this is more than just a fan from the standpoint that it's a conversation piece I mean when it's standing on your shelf or whatever you're going to put it people are going to ask how the hell does that thing work it's really a feat of engineering and an interesting product on its own whether it blows it not but anyway getting back to the unboxing here we've got two components now I'm probably not going to try and assemble this thing on camera it might be a bit of a blooper reel but we'll take a look at the two parts that come in the package the first is this airfoil it kind of looks like a turbine on the side of an airplane minus the turbine portion just the front side of it but uh don't ask me to explain to you from a technical sense just how this thing operates basically it appears like it sucks air in through it and blows it out in a straight stream and that's as much as I want to understand at this point after all this is not the Science Channel the next component we have is the actual motor and I believe this takes some of its technology from Dyson is learned in their vacuum cleaners after all that's what they're most widely known for so there's some sort of a cyclone in here now this is actually adjustable as well so you can direct the fan up or down and it'll also pivot so we can spin around the room kind of like those old-fashioned fans you might remember that did the same thing here's what the fan looks like in operation it's a really cool looking thing and some it almost looks like a sci-fi kind of a device if you just saw it in a house you might not know right away that it's a fan but as you can see it adjusts up and down here it is one way and then the other and you can actually have it adjusted while it's pivoting on the front you have your power button your intensity knob as well as your toggle switch to toggle the pivot on and off anyway this has been an unusual one but I hope you guys enjoyed it after all it's a pretty interesting device
