In Malta there are these Italian fans called Venti, which are cropping up everywhwere. I was wondering what your opinion is about them.
To be honest, I really don't like these fans for various reasons:
1. In my opinion they look ugly all over: the blades look droopy as they are not tilted upwards at all; the canopies seem to be mismatched, as the lower one is cylindrical and the upper one is like the one on most Westinghouse fans: wide, flat, and has many screws.
2. The blades have a 0° pitch, even on the 36" model, which I think limits the airflow. The speed does not compensate, because they are rather slow fans.
3. They are mounted with a ball and socket (like Westinghouse) rather than a shackle clamp, which I personally do not like
4. Moreover they tend to be unbalanced and wobble a lot.
Ultimately, I do not like the way this fan is dominating over the ceiling fans in Malta. Before there was much more variety, with the most popular possibly being the Relite Rapide MKII, which was miles better than these Venti fans, both in performance and in appearance.
