Westinghouse Ceiling Fans 72557 Bendan One-Light 132 cm Five Indoor Ceiling Fan, Opal Frosted Glass, Satin Chrome Finish with Wengue Blades

Had to get Amazon to send me a replacement because the original motors Crome housing was not running true, Amazon replaced this very quickly good service as usual, once I had the new fan it was a quick and easy process to install. It is very heavy so it must be fitted firmly to the ceiling joist. You hang and wire the mount and then the main fan and light hands on this mount, this really does make wiring and hanging this fan very easy. The light is bright enough in my opinion. The only thing that I was slightly disappointed with was the light does not dim, not the end of the world. After I discovered the original fan did not spin true I tried to find a contact number for Westinghouse in the UK, I was unable to find any way of speaking to them, this was a disappointment. This fan and light does look well made and has a good warranty. I would buy another one and would recommend it to anyone. Further to this and some years later, still working really well and still looks modern. The only thing I’ve changed is I’ve managed to change the expensive halogen bulb with an equivalent LED light. A must do thing with expensive electric costs. If you are looking for a great light that still works silently after many years then look no further buy this fan, I love it

I like this ceiling fan. It's in my bedroom so it's quite large for the room probably best suited in a living room but saying that it's been a god send with this very warm weather. Its very quiet on setting 1 & 2 a little bit louder on setting 3 but the draft it causes is lovely . I've been able to sleep no problem on setting 2. I haven't changed the setting on the fan so that it forces warm air down into the room I'll wait until winter time for that so can't comment, but if cool setting is anything to go by I'm sure it'll work well. Well worth the money I would definitely recommend this product. Quite heavy when trying to mount on to the ceiling but manageable, remote control works well even in the dark(middle of the night) turning it on and off the buttons are easy to identify.

Makes a real difference on horribly hot summer nights. Had a few complications fitting the fan - but I'm so pleased with it overall that it still gets 5 stars. The fan is attractive, robust, stable (despite the weight) and is almost entirely silent on the first 2 settings. Creates a good level of air movement; I'm currently 8 month pregnant, during a heatwave - and this makes a big difference to making nights more bearable. Did have a few issues fitting the fan. I hired an electrician for this - as instructions specify this (and it's quite heavy). Electrician advised that it can't technically just replace a standard light - as installation instructions specify a 2-pole switch and most UK light switches are only one pole. Electrician had fit a second isolation switch on the ceiling (I think it'd also work if you just used a standard light switch as-is, but fan wouldn't be properly isolated in case it needed repair in future and this would void the warrantee). We had to contact the manufacturer to double-check using a separate isolation switch was an acceptable alternative to a 2-pole switch (which they did confirm) but it was hard to reach them - as they only have a German contact number. Overall, a few issues fitting - more hassle than expected, but nothing insurmountable. Once installed, fan is excellent.

The last few weeks of hot weather has made owning a fan a necessity. I was willing to spend a little bit more for the right product that would last. So i read the reviews and chose the Westinghouse Bendan ceiling fan. I'm glad to say I am very pleased with the result. The installation although a little bit fiddly is easily within the capability of any confident DIY person but if in doubt it's always recommended to get an electrician. Its a very nice looking fan with its dark steel case contrasting with the wood effect blades. It fitted my decor perfectly. You should be aware though, It's quite heavy so your ceiling fittings must be very secure, but this only adds to the quality of the product and it's smooth operation. If you ensure the ceiling bracket is fitted as per instructions its possible a single individual can complete the install, but reserve a little patience for getting all the wires and remote control module tucked within the housing. As a tip try adding all but two of the blades before lifting up to the ceiling bracket and attaching the wiring plugs and sockets. This will save youself a lot of neck ach when attaching the blades later on. Using the fan has been treat. It's very quite at speeds 1 and 2 and that's all I need but you could stir up a hurricane on setting 3 if you really wanted. I'll admit its only been a short time since install but its made such a difference i had to add this review. I will update again when i have the chance to see if the claim it improves warm air circulation during the winter months is true. For now i would definitely recommend over a lot of the cheaper models I've come across. My only regret is the light option is halogen and not led in this price bracket and couldn't personally justify the extra cost for the led version of the same fan.

Beautiful piece of kit. Have bought 4 by now and very happy with them. Silent barely hearing a wind sound on 3. Able to sleep with it on without any issues. I have to say that it is a rather heavy equipment so when I had to install them I ask for the electrician to help. If you will put in concrete ceiling will be better to use a stronger hook which really wasn't a problem. Follow the instructions to the letter and do not force anything during assembly. Everything should fit snug to avoid any noises. Good remote, mine has dimmable lights so great and the direction is changing to accommodate winter and summer use. I would recommend them strongly. At the end unfortunately it is true that you get what you buy for so you will pay more but in my opinion it totally worth it.

Der Ventilator kommt aufwändig und sicher verpackt mit allen benötigten Zubehörteilen, aber natürlich zerlegt an. Ein erster kurzer Blick in die mehrsprachige und bebilderte Anleitung sorgt kurz für etwas Verwirrung, was sich aber im Nachhinein aber als absolut unbegründet herausstellt. Insgesamt verläuft die Montage an der Wohnzimmerdecke einfacher und schneller als ursprünglich gedacht. Nur wenige Schritte sind notwendige um des Gerät zu installieren. Wer schon mal eine Deckenlampe angebracht und angeschlossen hat sollte keine Probleme mit der Montage und dem elektrischen Anschluss haben. Nach erfolgreicher Installation erfolgt gespannt der erste Testlauf: über die einfache Fernbedienung können das Licht sowie der Ventilator selbst an und aus, sowie die Drehgeschwindigkeit in 3 Stufen geschaltet werden. Die Umschaltung der Drehrichtung erfolgt an einem mechanischem Schiebe-Schalter oben am Ventilatorengehäuse. Die Laufruhe / das Laufgeräusch ist absolut top! Auf erster Stufe ist nichts zu hören, man spürt allerdings einen angenehm, leichten Luftzug. Genau so wie wir und das erwünscht hatten. Stufe zwei: der Motor dreht immernoch nahezu Geräuschlos, allerdings kann man nun den Luftstrom hören, wenn auch sehr leise und nicht störend. Jetzt spürt man aber auch einen deutlich stärken Windzug. Auf Stufe 3 überwiegt immernoch der hörbare Luftstrom über das Laufgeräusch des Motors. Aber: der Ventilator arbeitet auch jetzt noch viel ruhiger als wir je erwartet hätten! Lose herumliegende Zeitungsblätter oder ähnliches fliegen jetzt aber auch schon mal umher.... Die eingebaute Beleuchtung ist leider nicht dimmbar, erzeugt aber ein sehr angenhm warmes und für unseren Wohnbereich ausreichendes, nicht zu helles Licht. FAZIT: Der Ventiltor wirkt sehr hochwertig und überzeugt uns auf ganzer Linie! Die Montage erfolgt problemlos ist in einer guten Stunde abgeschlossen. Absolut leise und laufruhig sorgt der Deckenventilator für einen angenehm kühlenden Luftstrom - der Effekt ist besser als wir es uns erhofft hatten! Das Laufgeräusch ist kaum wahrnehmbar und wird zb durch einen laufenden TV mehr als überdeckt. Wir werden uns mit Sicherheit einen weiteren Ventilator fürs Schlafzimmer anschaffen! Die intigrierte Beleuchtung spielt bei uns eine eher untergeordnete Rolle da wir unser Wohnzimmer abends gerne dezent über eine Stehlampe beleuchten. Trotzdem bekommt der Ventilator auch hier volle Punktzahl! Die Fernbedienung wird dem Ventilator nicht zu 100% gerecht. Sie wirkt optisch wie haptisch eher einfach, funktioniert aber einwandfrei. Wem der Deckenventilator optisch gefällt kann bedenkenlos zuschlagen! Tolles Gerät auf das wir nicht mehr verzichten wollen!

Still working, good choice

Returnerade den första då den var skadad från fabrik. Returvaran kom lika snabbt, fantastiska leveranstider. Smidigt att returnera också. Jag har en liknande sen förut så jag köpte den här och blev inte besviken. Mycket tyst på lägsta (det räcker för en god sömn) och jag kunde använda samma upphängning som en annan WestingHouse så jag behövde inte borra osv. Hade fått en femma om den första inte var skadad (förpackningen var hel på utsidan) och att det inte följer med en ledlampa istället för den elslukande halogenlampan.

Good

Ottimo prodotto infatti è il secondo che ho acquistato. Elegante ed efficace, raffresca la camera ottimamente. La terza velocità e anche troppo veloce e fa un po’ di rumore ma non la uso perché è già efficace con la prima che utilizziamo di notte in quanto sembra come una piacevole brezza senza fare rumore. Anche la seconda velocità è silenziosa. Facile da montare seguendo le istruzioni, personalmente non ho molta manualità. Si collega semplicemente con i due fili della luce al posto del lampadario. La luce si accende dall’interruttore come un lampadario normale e il ventilatore si aziona dal telecomando. Se si vuole la luce spenta e ventilatore acceso si agisce tramite il telecomando.
