The ceiling fan Westinghouse Vegas, with light and 4 reversible blades in white & white pine make the Vegas a fitting accessory for any room.
It has an almost silent AC motor made of cold-rolled steel that ensures comfort throughout the year: comfortable cool climate in summer and optimal heat distribution during winter operation.
It can be equipped with either a remote control or a wall switch.
Reverse Airflow
Ability to change the blade rotation direction
With clockwise rotation, the space is heated in winter, while with counterclockwise rotation, the space is cooled in summer.
In this way, you facilitate the circulation of warm air trapped in the ceiling and save up to 30% on heating costs.
What is the benefit of the reverse blade rotation direction?
A ceiling fan operating in the reverse direction (clockwise) during winter, transfers warm air from the ceiling to the lower layers of the space.
This technique results in the circulation of warm air throughout the space, distributing heat more evenly without creating temperature stratification but rather a mixture of air with the best possible uniform temperature in the space.
Practically, this technique yields energy savings by reducing heating costs by up to 10%.
A healthy, economical, and ecological way to regulate the temperature of our space.
It can also work complementarily with the air conditioner (in very high temperatures), offering great energy consumption savings.

It is quiet on the 2nd speed but on the 3rd speed it doesn't annoy you; however, it requires frequent dusting due to the color. I have it in the kitchen and fortunately, I also have spotlights; otherwise, the lighting is not sufficient
I was not satisfied with this particular fan, I have one in the hallway and one in the bedroom, I would not recommend it. It is also terrible as a light. The only positive thing I will say is the build quality, absolutely no issues and it is very stable when installed by a professional. But as I said, it is not powerful at all! A floor fan with the same amount of money is much better...
I put it in a room that is hit by the sun all day long... before the big heat waves hit, I could sleep comfortably with just the fan. However, by the end of June, it couldn't handle it. If the room is cool, it might do a better job, but for me, I think it was a waste of money (+40 for installation by a professional). With the same amount of money, you might be able to get a large floor fan that will cool you down much more. Otherwise, it is a sturdy construction and it is stable.
It was purchased for a children's room of 15 square meters.
For now, it works at the lowest setting with an external temperature of 25-30 degrees and we are satisfied! At night, you need a light cover! It is quiet on all settings as long as the installation is done correctly. It is worth its money and we are seriously considering placing similar fans in all rooms.
In a 14 square meter room, you cool down slightly at full speed, but it also makes some noise. The 15-year-old Westinghouse that was replaced was quieter. Definitely need a professional for installation.
This fan came to save us. It works every summer night and cools us satisfactorily with a consumption equal to 2/10 of our AC. Its price is very good for the quality of its materials. As you can see from the photos I uploaded, it blends into the space due to its all-white color. However, there is the possibility to reverse the blades, which have a wood color, and completely change its style.
Let me start from the beginning. Its installation is not the easiest thing in the world (especially if your hands are not steady). It requires a little experience in installing lighting fixtures. If it is not properly installed, it makes a creaking sound.
It has 3 speeds. The first one feels like a gentle breeze, the second one (and the most useful) is for general use, and the third one is for extreme heat. In the first speed, it is completely silent, in the second one, it is still quiet. You will only hear it if you focus on it, but even then, it is slight. In the third speed, it makes some noise, but it is not prohibitive for sleeping. I would say it is normal.
Additional positives: It has an option for winter operation. It has a 10-year warranty (let the motor work continuously)! It takes an E27 bulb, which means it will save you the trouble forever.
Negatives: a) I didn't like the silver extensions for both opening and closing the fan and the light. b) The pull cords are 2.10m away from the ground (in a room with a height of 2.80m), making it difficult for a shorter person. It would be good if they made them longer. You might need to use an extension.
I will come back if I notice anything else... whether positive or negative.
It was installed in a 16 sqm bedroom.
The purchase was made for 84€.
I did not install a remote control. I set it to 2 when I go to sleep and turn it off in the morning.
Tip: The manual has 2 installation methods. Follow the second one for ceiling installation. (I didn't notice it and started screwing the screws randomly).
Tip2: Check at least once a year because the base screws and connections may have loosened.
As construction is mediocre: the socket, for example, is plastic, not porcelain, its laces were ridiculously short - I had to extend them to reach them (!). Aesthetically, it is good, I liked it. I don't know how durable it will turn out to be and if it will be worth its money. It is not suitable for a large space, though.
It has been working continuously for 2 years, winter and summer, and has not had a single damage. The only thing it needs is to tighten the screws every year with a screwdriver. There is a possibility that a screw may be loose and cause the fan to shake or make noise. I have bought 4, two in the living room and two in the bedrooms. I opened the air conditioner last year for a total of 20 days, but always with the fans running.
Good morning, I bought it for €91 for the bedroom with a 10-year warranty. The technician from the company installed it - I had read that it might not be stable, etc., so I paid an additional €30 to the handyman and everything is fine. It is quiet on levels 1 and 2, which interested me the most. On level 3, you can hear the air, but I think it will be okay until level 2, we'll see. I also added a remote for €45, making the total €161. I don't want any more air conditioners, we will have good sleep this year!
First, I would like to emphasize that I had never had a ceiling fan before (first experience) and for now, it seems satisfactory (about 2 months). Initially, I installed it in the living room (about 30 square meters), but it didn't do much as the space was too big (maybe in the future, I will try it with a larger one). The second installation was in the bedroom, which is about 15 square meters, and there I can say it is great, very efficient in operation (3 speeds) and almost silent on the third setting. For now, I am satisfied! Unfortunately, during very hot weather, it doesn't do the job, you definitely need an air conditioner!
I never had a ceiling fan and honestly, I was afraid of it in terms of noise and not being able to produce cold air. However, I bought one for the living room and one for the bedroom, and they are perfect. On the high setting, the air is very cool and it makes very little noise, on the medium setting, you can't hear anything. A very good and economical solution! I will update once the electricity bill arrives
With the research for a new fan for my new apartment, I decided to help other buyers and share my experience with the fan I have had for the past 3 years:
It is by far the best fan in our house (we have 3).
In a 10-square-meter room on the first setting, it is completely silent and the air flow is gentle/discreet - the low setting is indeed low. On the third setting, on the other hand, I found it to create annoyingly strong airflow and the noise also bothered me (but that was the noise from the blades and personally, it bothers me if there is a computer on in the bedroom, so you can't really call it a lot of noise). It has a nice transition from setting to setting. With other fans, all the settings are pretty much the same.
However, I never had a reason to use it beyond the first setting. 3 years later, in the heatwave of 2021 (40-45°C for a week) and without air conditioning, I have it on the third setting, and I wish it had a fourth.
It wobbles a bit after all these years, but that's a balance issue. In the next fan, I would like to have the same low setting as this one, the same noise levels, optionally a higher maximum setting, and to have a remote control since I don't like getting up in the middle of the night and searching for the cord in the dark to change the setting or turn it off.
Second fan of this specific company that I buy.
The first one was bigger for the living room, which has been working non-stop for a year without any problem.
In this specific one, for a 15 square meter room, it is perfect in terms of air flow and noise on the lowest setting, both during the day and at night.
On the third setting, the highest one, it is annoying when you sleep, more in terms of air flow and not noise.
It is installed at a height of 3 meters (ceiling)
Awesome for its price.
I bought it for the bedroom.
Quiet and beautiful.
Easy to assemble, detailed instructions, it fits any bulb you want, so it has sufficient lighting for all tastes.
Not too powerful but satisfactorily powerful. Quiet. Even on the 3rd setting, you only hear the sound of the air created by the blades, no mechanical noise.
Installation is relatively easy as long as you have it. You need to drill 2 holes and the system is supported by large screws with anchors. It is stable, it doesn't move at all. The packaging also includes something like an extension to lower the blades.
It's worth it with the remote control (+45€). An accessory needed for the remote control goes inside the system and the cables are somehow squeezed but they all fit.
I would recommend connecting the remote control from the beginning because if it's done later, the whole system will have to be taken down to install the extra accessory.
I got one for the room where I have my PC, it does a great job even at the second speed. It is quiet and very high quality, its installation was very easy, it has a blade (base) with two screws, you place it on the ceiling and then simply attach it on top, I highly recommend it!
Update: After two years, it still remains quiet, if you need a remote, there are universal ones much cheaper than the Westinghouse ones and they work perfectly
It is very efficient even though it is small. It is quiet at low speed, while at medium speed it sounds a bit but does not disturb during sleep. The installation requires a little patience but the instructions are clear. It is mounted directly on the ceiling, so if there is a hook it can obstruct. I have supported it on plasterboard without any problem. Also, the blades have a different color on each side. Finally, it shows very good construction and does not "dance" even at maximum speed.
update 6/7/19: I got another one for the country house and I didn't use air conditioning even with 32 degrees external temperature.
No joke, it's a great product. I have filled my house and vacation home with these. In white, they blend seamlessly into the space. E27 socket, so you can use any LED bulb you want, getting maximum brightness due to the position of the globe. The most important thing: absolutely silent at low speed, quiet at medium speed. Ideal for a bedroom. Very efficient.
As for the support: when one of the seven (7) that I have in my house and vacation home made a slight noise at low speed, the company technician came to my house with a new motor in hand, changed it in 10 minutes, and all this at no cost.
What can I say? Thank you, Westinghouse.
27/7/2020 I continue to highly recommend them. In the past 2 years, in my house (Moschato) and vacation home (Aegina), I haven't turned on any air conditioning for cooling.
01/06/2022 they entered their 5th summer of operation. No damage, no noise from bearings or anything else. Flawless.
I bought 4 fans. The three work very well. One had a very big tremor. I returned the fan to the official service through the store's purchase and the result is that 17 days have passed and I have no information about the fan. I would like to conclude by saying that if you encounter a defective product, then the Odyssey with the very bad service will begin.
Uniquely quiet!!!
Very efficient for cooling, up to an internal temperature of 29 degrees and up to 16 square meters, room.
Assists in heating with reverse rotation. Amazing and durable product!
