We try to make choosing a fan as easy as possible for our customers, but there are so many to choose from. Each month our sales staff receive hundreds of enquiries from people who want to know which ceiling fan is the best.
It’s a really hard question to answer, because everyone needs something different. There are ceiling fans that suit different sized rooms, different budgets and styles. In a race for the best overall fan, a small fan might miss out because it has slightly lower than average airflow – even though that’s exactly what you might want from a smaller fan. So instead of telling you which ceiling fan is “best”, we want to help you find the best fan for you.
That's why we've divided our awards into categories, including bedroom, outdoor and different sizes. We’ve tailored our recommendations in each category based on the feedback we’ve received from customers over years in the ceiling fan business. Hopefully you will find our top picks are a good starting point as you begin your search for your perfect ceiling fan. If you have any questions about our top picks please feel free to contact us.
Before we add a new fan, we examine all the available specifications and assess its suitability for a range of applications. When a fan stands out from the other fans in its category, we shortlist it for inclusion on this page. We stock over 800 fans from 17 major brands, so a new fan really has to impress us to claim a top 5 or top 10 spot.
Our team of expert Ceiling Fan staff recognise quality when they see it. We’ve spent years building our product knowledge and can choose a fan for almost any application. When it comes time to choose our recommendations, the whole team is involved. The recommendations below are just one of the ways we share our experience with you. We love to hear from customers, so please contact us to discuss any of our ceiling fans.
When it comes to fans, there’s no “one size fits all” solution. Some fans are better suited to outdoor areas rather than bedrooms. In outdoor settings, high airflow is important, whereas bedroom fans need the option of a quiet and gentle speeds. Our recommendations take this into account. Categorising our recommendations allows us to tailor our suggestions to meet a variety of needs.
No-one knows a ceiling fan better than someone who has already bought it. Before we finalised our choices, we cross checked our list against customer reviews and emails. We had to make some adjustments, but we wanted you to benefit from our previous customer’s experience. We encourage you to browse our customer reviews. A star rating below the product indicates that there are reviews available to view.
