At first, the benefits of a smart fan seem relatively small, but the more you dig in, the more they seem like a really smart choice. Money-Saving Fan technology has changed a lot over the last ten years, with new designs and DC motors bringing in an era of quieter, more energy-efficient but still very powerful air-shifters. What hasn’t changed so much, however, is the way that fans are controlled and used. Buttons, switches and simple LED indicators are still very much the norm, and in an era when even light bulbs and heaters are working with apps and voice control, smart fans are few and far between.

Best fan ever! I have a Dyson fan of 400 euros but so happy I bought this. The natural mode where it simulates wind like outside is amazing. In that mode it will automatically adjust the speed to simulate the wind outside. In this mode you can still set the max speed which is great. Swiveling horizontal and vertical is completely without noise. It works very well but I don't even use it. I have positioned it in the middle at the foot end of the bed and both me and my girlfriend feel the air. With natural mode on the fan and ocean sounds on Google home it's like we are lying on the beach! I don't understand people saying it's too expensive. It's 99 euros or 149 euros to have it with wifi so you can control with an app and Google home. The fan is super quiet. If I set it to a position that matches the air strength of the Dyson this Duux is very quiet while the Dyson sound like a jet taking off. A conventional fan chops the air which causes that vibrating sounds so typical of those fans. This fan has a double blade design which fixes this vibrating for a large part. So happy with this fan and for a very fair price considering the functionality, innovation and design. Well done Duux, hope you do well as everyone should hear about your Whisper fans!

It's not that the speed of 5GHz is necessary but it would have been nice for the usability of the product if it had gone along with modern standards that both were a possibility. That same convenience can also make smart fans perfect for the elderly, or anyone who has lowered mobility due to illness or other factors, allowing them to control the temperature in their home without unnecessary strain.

Then its time to fit the fan to the base, this slots on easily as long as you make sure to align the larger of the two pins in the motor with the largest of the holes on the base plate. The fan was put on the market for a considerable price. You would expect that functionality will be further developed through application and firmware upgrades. So should you buy the Duux Whisper Flex Ultimate Fan? Well, this fan is an investment, coming in at nearly twice the price of the second most expensive fan we've reviewed, the EcoAir Kinetic Fan, and over eight times more expensive than the much cheaper Honeywell Turbo Force Power Fan, so it really all depends on your budget and how much you value the Duux Whisper Flex Ultimate Fan's five main plus points.
