Among its advantages is that it also features a reverse function, making it ideal for use during the winter. This option achieves better heat distribution in the winter and saves on heating costs.
With clockwise rotation, the space is heated in the winter, while with counterclockwise rotation, the space is cooled in the summer.
In this way, it facilitates the circulation of warm air trapped at the ceiling and saves up to 30% on heating expenses.
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%.

Very quiet fan. It also has a timer for 2, 4, and 8 hours. It has three speeds. The only problem is the e14 socket (low light). However, it's not a big issue. Do not buy an e14 LED bulb with high lumens because it probably won't fit inside the lampshade. I bought an e14 LED bulb with 1800 lumens and it didn't fit. Instead, unscrew the e14 socket (it requires some DIY skills - first unscrew the plastic part with a screwdriver and then unscrew the metal back part, or simply unscrew the socket from the base) and replace it with an e27 socket. With a classic 1500 lumen bulb (pear-shaped), it works perfectly (this bulb fits easily).
P.S. The reason there is so much fuss about the bulb is that if you use a classic e14 LED bulb with 800-1000 lumens, it won't provide enough light. It's too dim for a standard-sized room like mine, which is 13 square meters. Other than that, installing the fan is a job that requires a skill level of 4, with 10 being the most difficult, so if you are a bit handy, you won't have any problems.
I bought it in May 2019.
I turned it on in May 2020 and realized that it works very slowly.
It didn't bother me because the weather wasn't hot yet.
In July, I finally decided to deal with the warranty.
I contacted my local store and they gave me the phone number of the company in Athens.
I called the company and they gave me the phone number of the Thessaloniki branch.
I called Thessaloniki and they gave me the phone number of the service center in Larissa.
I took it to the service center under the scorching sun, disassembled it, and carried it inside in the heat of July, sweating.
After 3 days at the service center, they told me to come and pick it up and they would send me a new one.
I called and they told me that the responsible person is on leave.
They called me after a week and told me to take it back to the service center because they won't replace it but will send a new motor, etc. I didn't understand. And they will call me in 2 days when the replacement is in Larissa at the service center.
10 days have passed and I'm still waiting for a phone call.
I started the process on July 4th and now it's August.
Maybe in winter it will be ready to cool us down.
After trying it almost all summer, I can say that for the job I got it for, it was good, meaning I didn't sweat in the computer chair. Permanently on the second setting, it didn't bother me in the neck or head. Good construction, easy installation (except for the eye of the remote control that you have to fit into the base).
It is very effective and relatively quiet if the room is not too large. Pay a little attention to the instructions not to put the blades in wrong because you will lose performance. It has a button on top to adjust the direction of the blades; if you do not adjust it correctly, it will direct the air to the ceiling and it will be as if you do not have a fan.
It was installed a few days ago, nice construction, it gives 2 screws which I considered small and we put in 2 larger ones. The installation was done with the help of an electrician but we didn't find any issues, the blades were screwed in properly, and overall we installed it in 15 minutes. At 1 it is silent and blows just fine, after all, it is meant to dry clothes! I emphasize that I had read the comments about the socket and it turned out to have an E27 inside, so there was no modification needed. Now we have to see its durability because I don't see it being used this year, that's why I give it 4 stars.
Great attention to the direction of the wings!! The instructions are nonexistent and in the photos of the box as well as on the websites, the wings are upside down!! Those who do not feel a breeze in the Low setting have put them upside down.
It is very good, I have it in the children's room! Completely silent, I don't give it 5 stars because I would like it a little stronger at least on the third level!!️
I live on an island with humidity and naturally hot weather during the summer. I was having coffee at my friend's grandmother's house and noticed that she had a ceiling fan. We were sitting in the living room with the fan on and even though it was hot, we were comfortable. Immediately the next day, I bought this fan.
Initially, it requires a professional to install it. Unless you know how to cut, connect wires, etc. It requires light installation, meaning large screws with plugs in the ceiling.
If we're talking about hot weather of 38+ degrees, the small setting doesn't work. It only works for sleeping at night so you don't get beaten by the heat. But the other two settings cover you.
I went through the whole summer without an AC.
It has its drawbacks. Because it replaces the light fixture in the living room, you have to turn on the light from the remote control. It's just a habit.
But the fan is perfect. Even on the highest setting, you only hear the sound of the air moving. On the lowest setting, you don't hear anything.
I WONDER WHY NOT ALL GREEK HOUSES HAVE CEILING FANS AND WE SPEND OUR MONEY ON AC FROM THE POWER COMPANY.
I bought it for my house balcony in brown color for 99€. The color is beautiful, now for the positives:
1) The remote control is very practical.
2) The light for the balcony is just enough.
3) It is almost silent.
And the negatives:
4) As a fan, the airflow is not very strong, it is a bit weak for me, but it has a wide range.
5) For installation, you need to have some knowledge, it is not very easy. When you go to install it on the ceiling, the cables that come from above should be next to the fan's clamp, and this is so that there is space in the center of the base for a transformer to fit, which also has the receiver with the red cap that unscrews and stays in the hole of the base. In general, for a 100€, it is fine.
Oh, I forgot another negative, the screws and the plugs that should be included are simply not there.
I bought this fan for a bedroom of approximately 10-11 square meters. It was installed in the center of the ceiling, right above a double bed. Let's move on to the comments/observations now.
The installation of the base on the ceiling requires 4 holes to be drilled for the anchors and screws. Theoretically, these anchors and screws should have been included in the package, but there was only 1 anchor and 2 screws, I think. I consider this to be just my luck. Also, it had a 4mm anchor, which I found to be small. In the end, I used 4 6mm plastic anchors with the corresponding screws. The installation of the base and the fan, as well as the screwing of the blades, is not difficult (as long as you have used a drill before). Also, connecting the wires is a piece of cake as everything is done with plugs where you can't go wrong (they can only be connected in one direction). You only need a screwdriver to connect the 3 wires (phase-neutral-ground) coming from the ceiling. The most difficult part of the whole process is managing to place and screw the cover that encloses the base on the ceiling with the wires and the receiver for wireless communication. It's really a very small space, a difficult point and a great inconvenience. It took me only this much time compared to everything else.
A detail that is not mentioned in the very concise and almost useless instructions: The red "eye" that is for communication with the remote control unscrews to be placed. After unscrewing it, there is a hole in the cover where you hold one part from the inside and screw the red cover from the outside. I accidentally discovered this as I struggled to place the difficult cover I described above!
As for the operation now, currently we don't have high temperatures, but at the 1st level of operation (it has 3), it does a very good job. You feel a light breeze without any noise. Trying level 2, the air that comes on you becomes somewhat annoying. Maybe it's worth it with heatwaves, but again, you need a sheet. At level 3, it was moving sheets and curtains, so I don't think I will ever use it.
The remote control works very well and you don't necessarily have to "aim" at the fan. There is a "beep" sound with every change of mode, which personally doesn't bother me.
You can also turn the lights on and off from the remote control, which is very convenient. Here it is worth noting (not that it is important) that in order for the wireless remote control to work and be able to turn the lights and fan on/off, the switch for the lights on the wall must always be on (of course). This way, you give or cut off power from the remote control. If you turn off the switch on the wall, the remote control does not work (logical, since you "cut off" the power going to the ceiling).
Drawback:
As many have mentioned here, the fan has an E14 socket for the light bulb and limited space that restricts your choice of bulbs. Personally, I removed it (by unscrewing 2 small screws), cut the 2 wires that supply it (they don't unscrew), bought an E27 socket that had the same mounting method (a small metal angle), connected the two wires, and installed the largest LED bulb that fit there (I think it gives 1400-1500 lumens) and now it's fine.
Conclusion:
A very efficient and aesthetically pleasing ceiling fan. At the price of 130 euros that I bought it, it is the best.
With summer in Crete slowly coming to an end and high temperatures becoming rare, I am giving an update on the use of the ceiling fan. It was used all summer to cool the main bedroom. Level No1 (low) cools quite well, but in intense heat you need No2 (medium). The noise is somewhat more, not annoying, but the feeling of coolness is much better. So, No2 was chosen for most nights and sometimes No1. No3 (high) was never tried because the noise is high, but mainly the airflow is so strong that it becomes annoying and excessive.
Conclusion (final). A very good choice for a ceiling fan. You sleep comfortably in the summer heat (Crete) and some nights your wife even tells you she wants a blanket!! :-) I will soon get another 2 of the same for the kids' rooms.
Now they send it with an E27 socket, so the bulb has greater brightness.
If you have a rosette, you will need to remove it in order to securely attach the fan to the ceiling.
Also, be aware that there will be a "little eye" protruding from the fan, which is connected to the remote control with infrared if I'm not mistaken. This "little eye" is not visible in other fans.
It is indeed quiet (at the highest intensity, you will only hear the air).
It is stable in its position. It is better to have an electrician install it on the ceiling.
It loses one star solely because of its lighting. I would like it to have stronger light, but the glass cover blocks a lot of the illumination and you can't use as big of a bulb as you want. Other than that, it's fine. I had a very comfortable summer with the 40-watt ones. It passed the test.
Very good purchase. Only in extreme heat conditions did the air cooler need to work. It fully covers a 30sqm space and has much lower consumption compared to the air conditioner.
It did not satisfy us. It only cools if we sit directly underneath it. The wall lamp is completely impractical, it gets stuck, and it will give you a hard time whenever you need to change the bulb (it took a lot of thought for the manufacturers to realize that a ceiling light should have an easily replaceable bulb, didn't it?). The switch for changing directions is also difficult to use. With the hazy DIM lamp they installed, it should have had positions for at least two bulbs, so that the room doesn't stay half-lit. And by the way, the "wood" color in the photos does not accurately depict the model: it is more black than brown. Overall, I did not find any connection whatsoever with the enthusiastic reviews I read here.
The fourth one I buy. It works just fine. The light is sufficient for bedrooms. It is good to be installed by two people, in some phases, the person who screws may need help.
I was completely satisfied with my purchase. No complaints.
Some points why the manual is terrible:
Firstly, I had difficulty installing it because the building is old and has a hook and plaster on the ceiling, so I couldn't screw the base onto the ceiling. However, this is a common issue and not a negative point for the product.
1. It has a base on which the entire fan hangs. Make sure to properly set up and connect it to the power as securely as possible. This takes time and may require a patent for the hook. Although the base wobbles a bit on the hook (obviously because it is not screwed but hung), when I turn on the fan, it does not move back and forth. It is stable because it is properly balanced.
2. Attach the blades to the fan first and then place the base for the lamp without the crystal and the lamp.
3. Place the fan on the ceiling base (1.) and then wedge the black controller of the remote control on top of it (if you put the controller first, the fan won't fit). Then connect them. It's very easy because the plugs have colors. Connect them correctly and that's it.
4. Stick the red eye of the remote control to the ceiling. (Do this after everything is in place because if you remove and reattach it incorrectly, it won't stick and will fall off...)
5. Install the lamp and crystal. I repeat, install these at the end so they don't break during installation. My crystal broke because the lamp was too big and I squeezed it excessively :(. It requires a narrow lamp! (But if it breaks, there is a replacement available. I found it for 19 euros)
It is very powerful and quiet. In comparison, even with a Home that I have in the living room, the difference in performance is huge despite the fact that the Home has a larger diameter. I could say that the first step corresponds to the third. Such a difference. As for reliability, it will show since I have had it for about a month, but it seems to be of good quality and it is very nice.
Excellent!!! We couldn't have made a better purchase! Completely silent and powerful! I will also confirm that the lighting is low, however, it is negligible compared to the work it does. I am looking forward to receiving the DEI bill to see how it is in this matter!
Very good fan, quiet, sturdy, and very beautiful.. worth every euro of it.
The downside is that you can't understand anything from the instructions, you have to (have) it to fix it properly..
The light with a 10w E14 bulb is great and powerful
In the positives:
Although it is still winter, the air is still good. The room light can be turned on and off from the switch without the remote. It is stable in its operation, has a nice construction, and a reasonable price. It is not exactly quiet, but it is fine.
In the negatives:
The manual for installation is not great. If you are not handy or do not plan to have a technician install it (which of course increases the cost), then I would suggest considering it. The light, as mentioned in the reviews, is like a candle. What you see in the photo is with an E27 socket and a LED bulb that is equivalent to 100W, so I have good lighting. 4 stars (I would give 3 stars) mainly because of the manual.
Nice construction, powerful, quiet, and very affordable.
During summer nights, it cools down and repels mosquitoes, etc...
On hot days, it provides a light breeze at medium speed.
Very good product.
With a reverse function switch for winter.
The fan is worth every euro. It is quiet, stable, and well-built.
With the remote control it has, you can adjust how long you want it to work, at what intensity, and turn the light on or off.
The only minor issue is the intensity of the lamp,,, but there are solutions for that too.
It is truly worth it!
I easily placed it in the bedroom. I have it on LOW and it has the coolness I need. It is completely silent on all 3 speeds it has. It's worth its money! I am very satisfied with this purchase. Now I'm thinking of getting another one for the other room.
I bought it for 108. Very good construction and very quiet. I don't like air conditioners mainly during sleep, so the difference from a floor one I had in the bedroom is huge. It creates airflow throughout the room. Comfortable sleep on the 1st level. Rarely on the 2nd. The installation requires your hands to "catch". Especially if you have those plaster ones where the lights go. The remote control is convenient, it beeps with every change. Low lighting but with 2 additional lights I have, it is not a problem.
Quality construction with only one problem in the control sensor (the hole for its placement is smaller than the sensor). I also appreciate that it would be much better if it had a lower speed than the current "first" and another slightly higher than the "first". Otherwise, I am satisfied with the purchase.
Powerful and quiet. The type of bulb (E14) is a big problem, combined with the limited space available to fit the bulb. As a result, a very powerful bulb cannot be installed (which I consider necessary in the space where I placed it - my desk). Also, the installation instructions are not very clear. If you are not familiar with "handyman" work, consider hiring an electrician as a solution.
I bought two fans for the (same) office. They are quiet, fast, and made with good quality. They are definitely worth their money. Their remote control works perfectly fine. The only problem is that with one remote, both fans are activated at the same time. Of course, this does not concern you if you only place one in each room.
It has a nice modern design and it is really quiet if you live in the same reality as mine!!! It has an infrared remote control, which is very important for those who have children because they hang from the chains and this is very dangerous. Very good value for money. I have only had it for a month, so I don't have an opinion on its durability. After a year and a half, I have nothing more to say, it works flawlessly and it is like new after dusting.
