### 5/5 — Haiku Fan

*2026-02-24, version 3.0.14*

This app is still my favourite over the new one. Very stable,  great settings schedules, motion and sleep.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-06-17, version 3.0.14*

Love how this app continues to be updated despite being retired. ( I don’t want to switch)

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-09-26, version 3.0.11*

I’ve had my 2 fans for several years now. They both turn on in the evening and shut off later 

They both turn on when it’s too warm inside 

I have tried the motion detector and it did what I wanted it to do. It blew at full blast when she came into the room. Scared the hell out of her. She still thinks that it was something wrong with the fan. Hope she doesn’t read this

### 1/5 — Connectivity disaster

*2024-01-08, version 3.0.11*

I’m removing the lights from the fans because they are so bad

### 5/5 — I like Big Fans and I Cannot Lie…

*2023-07-24, version 3.0.8*

We’ve had this fan for many years now, and I’m always amazed at its operation, looks, and effectiveness. 
Always super quiet with excellent connectivity, it’s a great addition to our Great Room. I highly recommend BAF!

### 5/5 — Around and around

*2023-07-12, version 3.0.8*

Great ceiling fan and the motion sensor is a nice touch. I would recommend adding a step down feature: when set at a speed and step down selected the fan speed would lower one level every two hours and stay at level one. Other than that everything worn
Ks great

### 2/5 — Problems with app connecting

*2023-05-10, version 3.0.8*

I like the fan - when the app works.  If there’s a power outage the app disconnects and may take days - sometimes longer than a week - before it reconnects and is usable again.  This is despite a strong WiFi signal in the room with the fan.  Many of the most useful features of the fan are only accessible thru the app - such as speed range and desired temperature in sleep mode. When the app reconnects, everything is back to the default initial settings. 🥺. I’m not certain I’d buy another Haiku fan because of this.

### 5/5 — Amazing Fan!!!!!

*2023-04-20, version 3.0.8*

BIF have the best fans ever! Love them and will be a customer forever.

### 5/5 — Wonderful fans with an excellent app

*2022-12-19, version 3.0.8*

These are wonderful fans, using very little electricity to quietly cool your house. We have two of them and we would buy more if we had more rooms. Highly, highly recommend.

### 1/5 — Haiku lights and fan do not have steady network connection

*2022-10-02, version 3.0.7*

Haiku discontinued the lights products and ever since they do not connect to the network properly. They go on and off all the time but all other products (Phillips hue lights, newt cameras, ring alarm, google door lock, laptops, ipad, and all other wireless devices connect sweet and smooth) work fine. It is a big pain these lights and all HAIKU products lack network stability. Very disappointed.
