Our ceiling fan from KDK
The M11SU is the shortest fan in the KDK range of ceiling fans and suitable for low HDB ceilings like ours. Being anal when it comes to ceiling space, we opted for a white one so that it would do a better job camouflaging into the ceiling..
What the internet tells you:
- Wireless remote controller
- 3 speed selection
- 1,3,6 hours timer
- Sleep mode
- Blade made of ABS material with painting
- Thermal fuse prevent overheating or power surge
- Safety wire provided
- Cut-off safety switch equipped
- Fall prevention of blade adopted
- Permanently lubricated ball-bearing assembly
What they do not tell you:
1) Being of a lighter make as compared to the V series, motor vibrations of 2-3mm as seen by the naked eye is normal.
2) Natural wind velocity in your house may be causing the vibration
3) Squeaky sounds coming from the fan is due to the high wind velocity in your house that dislodged the blades
4) #3 Can be resolved by stabilising the mount and the motor with a PVC tubing, but that will cost you S$25
5) If you hadnt paid for #4 they would have charged you a servicing fee (although still within warranty) of S$20 instead because the flaw doesnt lie with the fan
Although we were abit pissed off with the before sale information available to us for making an informed decision and the after sale service, the fan has served it rightful purpose after we paid the $25. It is still vibrating but at least we have obtained verbal assurance from the service man that everything is functioning perfectly. :S
