8 Worst Ceiling Fan Brands You Need to Avoid

6.Westinghouse Ceiling Fan -- Stylish, but Not So Quiet

Westinghouse is a well-known name, and you might expect their ceiling fans to be top-notch. But some models, like the Comet or Industrial series, tend to fall short.

While it has a sleek, modern look and soft lighting, it's not as quiet as advertised. Even on the lowest setting, it makes a constant humming sound that can be annoying---especially in bedrooms at night.

Plus, installation can be more complicated than it should be, and the manual isn't the most helpful. Overall, it looks better than it performs.
