The most important factor to pick a ceiling fan is brand. In Malaysia, KDK and Panasonic are two of the best ceiling brands with long term track records. Local brands like Deka, Rubine, Alpha and even Rezo have relatively short histories. When you look at the cost of installation, maintenance, and replacement of ceiling fans, you don’t want to pick a cheaper brand for the sake of saving RM50-100. You may end up replacing it after two-three years which costs you more.
