Please note: If you’re in Australia, you should allow 2.1 metres between the ceiling fan’s blade and the floor, so make sure you measure before you buy.
1. Studio
The Studio fan really is the complete package for a bedroom! Available in a 48″ overall diameter size with or without light the fan is sized perfectly for a bedroom, and the 210mm ceiling to blade drop make the fan well suited to bedrooms with slightly lower than average ceilings, or if you want to achieve the popular ‘hugger’ look. The fan is available to buy with a remote control that also comes SMART enabled, meaning that you can control the fan from the convenience of your smartphone. Also available is a hardwired wall control model (without light only). If you opt for the fan with light you will receive an energy efficient LED light that offers CCT technology as well as being dimmable. The complete bedroom fan!
