New winter product range from Dreo

Dreo has introduced the 711S heater as part of its new winter product range, which also includes the 360° heater 720S and the air purifier 530S. The 720S, priced at 119.99 euros, uses active air flow and operates at 25 dB of noise, while the 711S uses natural convection without a fan, allowing it to operate at 0 dB as claimed by Dreo.

Quiet operation for sensitive spaces

The 711S is designed for use in bedrooms or offices where a blowing heater might be disruptive. It was launched in France on September 23 and is currently on promotion on Amazon, with a price of 129.99 euros, a 20 euro discount from its original 149.99 euros price.

Efficient heating technology

The 711S includes a 2000 W X-Core heating element made of aluminum, which has an X-shaped structure to increase the heating surface and distribute heat more evenly. It features an ECO mode that Dreo claims can save up to 40% on energy, though the reference for this claim is not specified.

Safety and control features

The device also includes a thermostat adjustable from 5 to 35 °C and multiple safety features, including a Shield 360° protection with 8 levels, such as child lock and overheating protection. It can be controlled via a touch panel, a remote control with batteries included, or through the Dreo app on a smartphone.

Design and additional features

The 711S has a slim, wall-mounted design with a tempered glass front, allowing it to be mounted on a wall and freeing up floor space. It also includes customizable RGBIC ambient lighting, which gives it a somewhat unexpected gamer setup feel. It has three heating levels and a thermostat that can be adjusted degree by degree.

Recommendations and usage

Dreo recommends the 711S for small spaces, even though its Amazon listing describes it as a "heater for large rooms." A fanless radiator generally takes longer to heat a room than a blowing model, and the 2000 W power output can affect the electricity bill, making the ECO mode particularly useful. The 711S is part of a range that also includes the Dreo 530S air purifier.
