The Big Ass Fans Haiku has the strongest documented specs on this list, and its price keeps it in second place. Big Ass Fans lists it from $1,550.00 to $2,730.00 depending on size, finish and light, in 52, 60 and 84 inch sweeps. The company rates it at up to 17,369 CFM and under 35 dBA at max speed, and its brushless DC/EC motor draws as little as 2.4 watts at low speed. SenseMe uses built-in temperature and motion sensors to change speed on its own, and the fan works with Apple HomeKit through Matter, Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Ecobee, plus an app, Bluetooth wall control and handheld remote. Airfoils are aluminum or Moso bamboo and are balanced and tested at the company's facility before shipping. The trade-off is cost: the base price buys a fan without a light, and the top airflow figure applies to the largest size. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test noise.
