i still prefer to go for long service branded name like pana and KDK...
and i still will choose those without remote... as the remote and spoilt and need to change battery if use for too long and never use the remote for too long. battery leak.. hahaaha...

those aplha one sure looks nice.. but not sure how long they can last.. as they are more towards on outlook then the durability...

nowadays even KDK also can last long, my old house already kong 2 pieces barely 2 years usage

I guess its more depend on the quality of the part of the fan rather than brand. If they are branded but use low quality part due to cost cutting, I think no good brand will last long as the manufacturer ultimate objective is to take money from your pocket.

My new house got 7 ceiling fans, all Alpha

my house got six of them, someone mention its not good,to me electrical stuff nowadays depend on luck since so many are China mali

Most of the ceiling fan's motor is China made.

And alot companies like Alpha also local companies. Unlike last time, i think local brand becoming better now.

Actually 4 of my fans are Alpha Wings which are their low cost product. Only RM155-170 for 5 ABS blades with remote control

Using panasonic 4-blade type, with remote. Very happy with it. Strong wind and silent.

can't do anything already, all my fans already installed just pray they won't breakdown when u least expected.

does any1 know the right type size of fan for type of room?like A/con calculation?

hmmm i have a problem here... i bought and fix my panasonic bayu only to realose thatits a bit too low for my plaster ceiling. i dont know what i shud do now

Sell your bayu ...or go and trade back to the shop that you bought ...and buy mini/baby fan

Those are nice, I like a 5 blade Ceiling Fans myself. I like to turn them on when I'm gone, you know...for the cat. They will get very dusty if you don't stay on top of it though...

just cut the "center rod" to shorter lenght will do the trick, tats what the Alpha fan installer told me.

erms... is it safe? its located right above my bed...:s i dont want to be on the headline of the news.

sorry i m not professional, tats just what my installer told me when I requested the fan to be shorter range as my house ceiling also not high.

i think you can cut the rod.. or maybe push the rod all the way into your plaster ceiling...

how tall is the blade of the fan from ground after installing?
if more than 8feet should be ok...

Anyone know whr can buy Alpha wing remote control, plan to get another one for spare.

I have 2 questions:

1. Which shop in KLang Valley that gives the best price for Alpha fans?
2. Which shop around Seri Kembangan / Mines that sells ceiling fans, and gives attractive price?

Your input will be much appreciate. Thank you.

is WINGS brand any good?

hope in future it will 'Wings' your wallet again...best go for pana or kdk..that my personnel advc..

1. for Alpha fan maybe u can try from Sangyou in Damansara Uptown. I got recommendation fr other forum , i bought Alpha VS5 for RM 275 . some other shop in KL i survey -cheapest can get RM 290.

Just my 2cents..
