Ceiling Fan Price

[applefreak 1]

hi all those who are interested in getting ceiling fans

carrefour is selling amasco 52" at $99 only, think it's quite a good deal

not forgetting the 5% rebate with everyday card

I ask before, the smaller the blade, the higher the price... dunno why?

Also additional items also add up the cost - lights, switch, remote....

[applefreak 1]

you mean the carrefour one?

how come?

i was very kiasu and went to a lot of shops

was quoted $460 at ellumination for the same fan

the number of lights can be one, two or three up to a max of five

can also choose the style of the cover

one lesson i learnt here is NEVER buy from the expo

coz the price is ALWAYS cut throat

Yar, learnt a Big lesson..Expo cut throat one!

I bought two fans from carefour the last time round at 88 dollars. 52" 5 blade amasco fan. cheap and okie quality. I feel if you pay 200 plus for a 52" fan, tio chopped already lah. Got to ask your contractor for installation

HI all,

Just want to share with you my experience regarding ceiling fans. I recently bought a few sets of fan. Actually, I feel that fans of a comparative range are equally good but what makes one better than the other could be one factor: the person who installs it. For the sets I bought, the person did not do a good job the first time. The motor was making a lot of noise and it sounded like something was scrapped. The installation man came down and I found out that he did not put in an additional device the first time he did it (something that look rubbery). After fixing it, the problem was solved.

Then, another set started to make noise the following day. This time, I realised that the fan base provided for about 6 screws but the installation man only used 2. That caused it to be unstable. I had to call him but he was very very unhappy despite that it was his own doing.

Then, the 3rd made noise. I called him again. He expressed his displeasure. He did not want to come down and said that I should wait and try it again. Fair enough. I did and the noise came back. I called the installation man and he was very annoyed. He said he would come down to my house the next day but only in the late afternoon. He did not turn up at all and did not call to inform me that he was not coming down at all in the afternoon.

I know that fan installation men work for a list of shops and they don't work for one shop. So, I feel a need to tell you to avoid this installation man. His name is David and he is in his late 40s or early 50s. His PR is first class because of they way he talks. I was told people said good things about him. I recommended him to a friend of mine (before he showed his true colour) and my friend experienced the same thing.

If you do want a good installation job, I suggest you avoid this David.
