The 9 Best Ceiling Fans from Amazon

The best ceiling fans check two boxes, they look good and perform well. Ceiling fans can be a great addition to any room because they add a stylish look as well as make you comfortable. Today we will explore the very best ceiling fans from Amazon and go over why they are the best.

Amazon is a household name. It’s a trusted company that almost everyone shops from (except my mother-in-law who “doesn’t do Amazon”). I remember back when all you could get from them were books and music (I am showing my age arent’ it)! Now you can order pretty much anything you can think of from them, and get it all within a couple of days.

With that being said I thought it was appropriate to find what the best ceiling fans are from Amazon and get all that information to you. It is Spring and soon we will need ceiling fans to keep us cool. So let’s get into it!

Before we jump to all the best fans let’s talk about things you should look for when buying a ceiling fan. These things are very important and can make or break a fan for you.

What to look for when buying a ceiling fan.

1. Energy Savings – Choosing the right fan can significantly reduce energy costs. A ceiling fan can allow you to set your air conditioner seven degrees higher, resulting in a 40% savings in energy costs. When you reverse the direction in the winter it pushes the hot air down and can save on heating bills.
2. Larger rooms need bigger fans. We will go into more details on exactly what size fan you need for what room later in this post.
3. Bathroom and Outdoor ceiling fans need to be UL-listed for wet locations otherwise you might have to replace the fan often which will result in higher costs in the long run.
4. The motor should be high quality with heavy-duty windings and sealed bearings that are permanently lubricated. This will result in a quieter motor and one that will last longer.
5. The warranty should be sufficient to last the lifetime of the ceiling fan.
6. Ease of installation

What is the best ceiling fan size for you?

The size of the ceiling fan you should buy depends on the size of the room you will be putting it in. Some huge rooms might need two ceiling fans.

If your room is 50 square feet then choose a 29-inch fan blade. Square feet are determined by multiplying the length by the width of the room.

If your room is 75 square feet move up to a 36-inch blade. Once you hit 100 square feet then you can go anywhere from 36-42 inches.

Rooms up to 400 square feet should have a blade between 50-52 inches. Larger than 400 square feet should be 54 inches or larger.

Any room that is very long or significantly bigger than 400 square feet might require the use of multiple ceiling fans. If this is the case the fans should be placed as close to the center of the room as possible with the fan blade tips being no closer than 18 inches from one another.

There is a lot of speculation as to whether your ceiling fan should have a light on it or not. I prefer fans that do have a light because I hate rooms that don’t have overhead lights. But to be completely honest it’s totally personal preference.

The nice thing about fans with light kits is you can turn the light on without having to turn on the fan. But I will try to share the best of both sides.

The Best Large Ceiling Fans

Now, if you are looking for something a little more modern or if you need the jumbo of all ceiling fans this one is for you! At 72 inches in blade length, this fan should work for most large great rooms especially those with tall ceilings.

I love the look of this fan. It also comes in three colors; white, nickel, and bronze. So it doesn’t matter what your design style is there is definitely an option here for you.

There are 8 blades in this ceiling fan so if you have a large room that needs to be cooled this one should do the trick.

There aren’t a ton of reviews on this fan but it has a 4.4 out of 5 rating. The biggest complaint seemed to be that it didn’t work with a wall switch, it needed to only be used with the remote provided.

Honeywell is a name brand that has been around for decades. I remember my parents buying Honeywell products back when I was a kid (and no that wasn’t all that long ago!).

What I love about this fan first off is the look. It’s sleek and modern and it comes with a nice light.

This fan is a big boy with a fan blade of 62 inches! This one is perfect for large great rooms, rooms with vaulted ceilings or large master suites where you need to cool off.

This fan has almost 3,000 reviews and a 4.4 out of 5 rating. Most customers said it was easy to install and worked wonderfully. The biggest negative was that the switch to reverse the direction of the blades was on top of the center unit which was really hard to get to.

The Best Medium-Sized Ceiling Fans

This fan is made by Hunter, which is a well-known manufacturer of ceiling fans. If you go to Lowes or Home Depot you will see this brand a lot.

This fan is a little smaller than the first with a blade length of 52 inches. What I really love about this fan is the blades are reversible, one side is a darker brown and the other is a gray wash. So you can really customize it to the look you want in your space.

What I also love about this one is it comes in four different finishes for the center unit! This fan really does have every option to fit with your particular style of home decor.

This fan is also made by Honeywell, which of course is a great brand. Its blades are 52 inches long and come in two colors, one side is a gray oak while the other is burnt oak.

With almost 1,000 reviews this product has a 4.5 out of 5 rating. They were a ton of great reviews. I will say the listing says it is a 56-inch blade but in the description, it says 52-inch. I think it’s 56 inches from the center of the motor but the actual blade length is 52 inches. So please keep that in mind.

There are two things I love about this fan, the light on it and the price! You can go wrong with the price on this one!

This fan is made by FINXIN and is just stunning. It has more of a modern design that is sleek and streamlined. The finish is brushed nickel which adds to it beauty.

The blades are 52 inches and are known for being very quiet when running. It has over 800 reviews and has a 4.4 rating out of 5.

One thing that was a little annoying to some is you cannot set the light and have it be at the same setting when you turn it back on. It goes back to its default setting so you have to change it to where you want it every time.

Smaller Ceiling Fans

This ceiling fan is made by Prominence Home. It is 44 inches wide and the fan blades come in two colors, burnt coffee and rough pine. This is great because it allows the homeowner to choose which color matches their home decor style.

There are over 300 reviews and this product received a 4.5 out of 5 rating. The majority of reviews are very positive noting that this fan is very quiet.

I really like this one because the motor is black and with the two different color fan blades I feel like this is a great choice for most design styles.

This Hunter fan is a great small fan for smaller rooms. It’s all white and has a light on it but is very modern looking. This light fixture is great if you want it to blend in with a white ceiling.

It also comes in a matte black finish as well as brushed nickel finish with wood toned blades.

This product has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 which means that a lot of people liked this fan. There are almost 1,500 reviews at the time of this posting.

The only thing I felt need mentioned was that some people had trouble with the glass globe falling out. The amount of people who mentioned this was very small considering the amount of people who loved this fan. So I have to wonder if maybe they didn’t install the glass globe correctly.

Best Ceiling Fans without Lights

This fan is simply gorgeous! It is made by Sofuocr and comes in different sizes, with and without the light.

Personally I love the look here of all walnut. It looks very streamlined and modern. A lot like the propellers of an airplane.

This fan has about 400 reviews with a 4.3 out of 5 rating. The positive reviews are all great stating that the fan is quiet and has the ability to move at a high speed.

The negative reviews state that you can only use the remote for the fan, it won’t work with a light switch. Another negative review stated that you cannot change the direction for moving the fan in different directions. If these things matter to you then this might not be the fan for you.

This fan is made by Westinghouse which is a well known brand in ceiling fans. You might find these at your local home improvement stores.

This fan is very modern and comes in brushed nickel and white. The best part about this fan is the price! It also comes in a two pack if you feel the need to buy two.

At nearly 2,000 reviews this product receives a 4.4 out of 5 rating. This fan has a ton of great reviews and is a popular one for covered porches and patios. It has a very modern look.

The only negative is that there is no reverse so if you are looking for something to use in the winter this wouldn’t be a good choice.
