Whisper Flex 2 Smart Fan, 13dB, Remote Control, Alexa & Smart App, 30 Cooling Speeds, Adjustable from Desk to Standing Fan, Up-Down, Left-Right Oscillation, Powerful & Quiet, Night Mode, Black

This fan is fantastic. The highest setting is incredible given how quiet it is, the lowest setting is so quiet you could have it right next to you at night and it wouldn't bother you in the slightest. The oscillation doesn't add any noise either. The natural wind mode is really subtle but noticeable. The remote is great, Google assistant integration is ok, you can turn it on and off via voice command and adjust the speed but can't turn oscillation on or off. The quality of the construction is very good and feels premium. The packaging was incredibly well done and is good enough to gift. Within an hour of it arriving I bought one for my parents and another for my office. The only negative is the control on the unit. It is well made and looks great but the mechanism inside does not FEEL very good for a more premium product. If anyone from duux reads this, it should either be a smooth rotation with a little resistance and no clicks, or it should have very very quiet clicks like a good ratchet. Currently it wobbles too much. The way it is now feels very strange and is weirdly loud to adjust considering your selling point is noise. It's also confusing to use at first. But the handheld remote is very simple and intuitive to use so it's not a huge deal

This is the best fan I have ever owned. It is very, very quiet so you can watch TV without having to turn up the volume. As for using it for sleeping, it is great - so quiet you can't tell that it is there, apart from the wonderful cooling breeze it generates. Being able to time it for anything up to 12 hours is also a great idea. I don't know why people are saying the pedestal isn't tall enough - It is the perfect height when sitting on a sofa, and also perfect for directing the flow over the bed. The fan has a great range, even on lower settings, you can still feel it some distance away. I love the way it oscillates all around as well as having the option for side to side or up and down. It is a little heavy when carrying it upstairs, but there has to be some weight to stop it toppling over. The only downside is the app - I got it to work straight away, BUT it took over from the manual controls and then the app lost the fan so I had to delete it to be able to control the fan again manually. To my mind, the "smart" function is just a gimmick as it comes with a remote anyway, so I don't see the need for controlling it with an app (which doesn't work properly anyway). I bought one from Amazon warehouse, and unfortunately they had forgotten to pack the remote with it, but I was given enough of a refund to be able to purchase the remote directly from the manufacturer, so that wasn't a big problem. As I am not bothered about the "smart" function not working, I chose not to delete any stars for this. The other slight downside is the power pack isn't included with this model to allow you to charge the fan and then use it on battery power. I don't need this facility as I have the power sockets in the appropriate areas that I need the fan, but if you wanted to buy the power pack as an add-on it would cost you in the region of £60, and that is if they have it in stock at the manufacturers for this particular model. You can buy a different model that has the battery pack as standard, but the price goes up a lot. It depends on whether the portability of wireless use is important to you.

Arrived very quickly, thank goodness. Took me awhile to figure out how to put the fan together - watching the video helped a lot. The stand is very sturdy but the fan is quite flimsy and feels cheap, hence the reason for the four stars. However, it’s super quiet (on low) and ideal for the bedroom. The stand is not very tall so I stand it on a box. I would still recommend this fan. A bit pricey but as it’s so quiet, worth the extra money.

The fan is great, love the natural mode where the fan cycles through different speeds. It's whisper quiet even at the higher speeds (that you're unlikely to need) The accompanying app is a pain to set up & a lack of instruction exasperats this. The app will find the fan straight away via Bluetooth, have little issue connecting it to the WiFi. The next step messed everything up for me & I ended up reinstalling the app multiple time in a vain attempt to get it to work. You see the next step is to make an account with DUUX. When done the new profile seems to overwrite the one made in the setup. So the fan disappeared from the app. No Bluetooth option to connect now so you have to find it via WiFi, simple right? No, the app says "press the WiFi button on the fan" there is no such button & the included instructions make no mention of one. What you need to do is put the fan in pairing mode by having the fan turned off then holding the power button on the fan (not the remote) for 5 seconds (this info is only in the online instructions) I wish the app told you better. Connecting it to Google for home control was also a pain. You login, it sends you a one time code via email BUT you can't leave that screen to get the email because the invalidates the code, totally unnecessary, it's a fan not a bank account. After the trouble what Google home controls do you get, on or off. No mode controls, no speed controls, no oscillation toggles just on or off. The fan gets 5 stars still it is that good the IR remote is pretty good too & can be stowed on the fan when not in use. The fan is also upgradeable to wireless via a separate battery pack & dock set.
