Our Pick ofMinka Aire Ceiling Fans (available on Amazon)

Minka Aire Wave Ceiling Fan Model F843 Dk

This being the first pick of our Minka Aire ceiling fans collection was chosen because of its contemporary design and its ability to be camouflaged within a wooden ceiling of a house, office or other living space.

Even though its available in 3 colours, its ideally built to match for its wooden brown colour in order for it to have a distinctive appearance to the room. It also has the ability to work with Alexa for voice control functionality, but this requires the Alexa hub and device to be purchased separately.

The fan comes with a 3.5 and 6 inch set of down rods and it’s also possible for an even longer down rod to purchased separately if required. It should also be noted that during the first 24-48 hours of operation the fan may give a slight noise while its working as the oil in the motor gets distributed, so this should be gone within a few days of use.

This fan is designed to be used in rooms of up to 250 square feet in order to get maximum efficiency but as its built to work on 110V electricity, it cannot be used in countries which use 240V power.
