ROTTOGOON CF1501 review
The largest fan in this family at 132 cm, with dual control via the included remote and a companion smartphone app. ROTTOGOON states a reversible DC motor rated below 35 dB, a 24 W LED with three colour temperatures and stepless 10–100% dimming, six speeds, and a 2h/4h timer.
The bottom line The largest and most capable fan in this family on paper — bigger span, dual app-and-remote control, a sub-35 dB motor claim — but it's confirmed for sale on Amazon.de only, and the app pairing takes an extra step the other three fans in this comparison don't need.
The biggest fan in this family, on paper
ROTTOGOON states a 132 cm blade span for the CF1501, across six double-coated blades, which is larger than the 106 cm EXTRASTAR and considerably larger than the 38 cm Briloner and the closed 50 cm MiKoMiKa housing reviewed alongside it. The listing pairs that span with a reversible DC motor ROTTOGOON rates at under 35 dB — a specific noise figure none of the other three fans in this family publish — for what the manufacturer describes as effective summer cooling and winter warm-air recirculation through a reversed rotation.
Two ways to control it
Where the other three fans in this family run on a remote alone, the CF1501 adds a companion smartphone app on top of the included remote. ROTTOGOON’s own instructions are specific about pairing: the fan has to be added in the app first, then switched on at the wall switch — not the remote — before tapping “pair” within about five seconds of the LED coming on, repeating the step if two confirmation blinks don’t appear. That’s a small but real piece of setup friction the remote-only fans don’t ask for, in exchange for app access to fan speed, light and timer once paired. The LED itself runs 24 W across three colour temperatures (3,000K, 4,000K, 6,000K) with stepless dimming from 10% to 100%, and the fan offers six speeds plus a memory function that restores the last setting on power-up.
Confirmed for sale on one market
We checked ASIN B0GJYS8X2D — EAN 0850076762353 — on Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.it and Amazon.es. It exists, with a live offer, price and sales rank, on Amazon.de only: roughly €98.99, with a category sales rank of 915 that points to genuine, current demand rather than a stale listing. The same ASIN does not appear in the Amazon.fr, Amazon.it or Amazon.es catalogues at all — this isn’t a case of the product being listed but out of stock elsewhere, it simply isn’t indexed on those three markets under this ASIN. Anyone outside Germany looking for an equivalent fan should compare it against the EXTRASTAR or Briloner fans reviewed alongside it, both of which are confirmed for sale on more markets.
What isn’t independently confirmed
The under-35 dB noise figure and the 132 cm span are ROTTOGOON’s own numbers rather than an independently measured result, in keeping with every figure in this comparison. Amazon’s package data gives a 6 kg shipping weight but no separate installed weight for the fan itself, which matters for checking a ceiling fixing rated for the load before installation.
Bottom line
Of the four fans in this family, the ROTTOGOON CF1501 is the one built for a larger room and for buyers who want app control alongside the remote — it’s also the most expensive and, for now, the hardest to actually buy outside Germany. Where it’s in stock, on Amazon.de, the combination of span, stated noise rating and dual control makes it the clear top pick in this comparison; elsewhere, the EXTRASTAR is the more realistic reversible-motor option.

What we like, and what we don't
Strengths
Largest blade span of the four fans reviewed in this family, at 132 cm
The only fan here with both remote and app control, rather than remote alone
Reversible DC motor rated under 35 dB by ROTTOGOON, alongside a reversible summer/winter mode
Strong sales rank on Amazon.de (915) for its category, suggesting real, current demand rather than a stale listing
EAN published (0850076762353), giving an independent code to check against a physical box
Compromises
Confirmed for sale on Amazon.de only — the ASIN does not appear in the Amazon.fr, Amazon.it or Amazon.es catalogues at all
Highest price of the four fans in this comparison, at roughly €99
App pairing follows a specific sequence per ROTTOGOON's own instructions (switch on via the wall switch, not the remote, then confirm pairing within 5 seconds in the app), which adds setup friction the remote-only fans don't have
No published item weight from Amazon beyond the 6 kg shipping figure, so installed weight on the ceiling fixing isn't confirmed independently

Questions people actually ask
Can the ROTTOGOON fan be controlled without the app?
Yes. ROTTOGOON's own listing describes the remote as the primary control for speed, light and timer, with the app as an additional option — the fan doesn't require app pairing to work with the remote.
How do you pair the app?
Per ROTTOGOON's own setup instructions: add the fan in the app first, then switch the light on using the wall switch (not the remote), and tap 'pair' in the app within roughly 5 seconds of the LED coming on. Two blinks from the LED confirm a successful pairing; if it doesn't pair within that window, the manufacturer's instructions say to repeat the step.
Is this fan available outside Germany?
Not under this ASIN. We checked B0GJYS8X2D on Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.it and Amazon.es, and it only exists in the Amazon.de catalogue — it isn't listed at all on the other three markets at the time we checked.
Our score
8.5/ 10
The largest and most capable fan in this family on paper — bigger span, dual app-and-remote control, a sub-35 dB motor claim — but it's confirmed for sale on Amazon.de only, and the app pairing takes an extra step the other three fans in this comparison don't need.
Who this one is for
A larger room on the German market where the biggest blade span in this comparison and app control are worth the higher price, and a buyer is comfortable with a short app-pairing setup step.
