MrKen Wood Operation – The impressive operation is totally silent on the lower speeds and it can be left running all night gently stirring the air and giving a far more pleasant alternative to a noisy and dry air conditioning unit.  It can also be left running by open windows to draw in the cool night air so that the room is lovely and cool in the morning ready to soak up heat for the next hot day.

 

 

 

Low-Energy Motors – AC vs DC Control – Inside is one of the world’s most efficient highest quality DC fan motors and is US EPA energy star rated. The motors are made in Taiwan, which is renowned for it’s motor and DC control technology and where the World’s best ceiling fans are manufactured.  The fan driver converts the mains AC into DC in order to manipulate and control the sine-wave in a precise energy-saving manner before converting it back to AC again to drive the motor.  The energy savings can be up to 70% at high speeds over a conventional AC ceiling fan for the same airflow.

 

ceiling_fan_energy_use_with_speedsRobust Electronic Controls – The MrKen Wood fan uses the latest 2nd generation DC technology which is far more robust and reliable than that currently used by most of the competition. Variations and surges or spikes in power or voltage which happen regularly and would normally blow a regular DC controller are filtered out by it’s voltage protection system. Its ultra-low energy consumption means an amazing 3 watts is all that is required to run it at slow speed rising to 35 watts at max.

 

 

 

 

 

The Caribbean’s No1 rated award-winning top 6* resort Secret Bay Dominica – have installed 11 of these in their reception area in 2023 with 48″ drop rods to bring them down to the optimum level.  They are delighted with the results both in terms of great airflow, silent operation and awesome appearance.

 

 

 

 

Expensive Light-Weight Strong Solid-Wood Blades – The blade manufacturing process is involved and represents the best-in-class. It starts by taking sheets of paulownia, a fast-growing hardwood cultivated in certified sustainable forests, and compressing them to prevent any warping whilst in a different humidity or climate.  Three sheets are glued together into a block which is then CNC machine milled out into the 3D propeller shape.  The blades are then hand-sanded, finished and painted and then put into sets of three and hand-balanced to avoid any wobble.

The whole process is both very expensive and tricky resulting in over 10% of them being rejected and absorbs over half of the production cost. The result though is a set of beautiful strong, stable and precisely-balanced blades that are light to hold (low-energy use) and turn but which deliver a lovely smooth gentle, wobble-free silent wind.  Don’t be misled by the weak softwood blades found on the many cheap Chinese knock-offs of the MrKen Wood fan that can be found everywhere on the internet.

Get a Better Night’s Sleep – The MrKen Wood fan is completely silent at low speeds and so is perfect for bedrooms where the slightest of noise can be heard in the quiet of the night.  See our Case Study of how one customer deployed this fan in her London flat to solve her sleep problems  MrKen Wood Small City Flat.

The owner was struggling to get a good night’s sleep due to the heat and lack of fresh air and was not being able to open the window much due to being on the ground floor (security risk) and also due to the street noise.  The stuffy hot air got expelled and the cool night free oxygen-laden air was drawn in through the limited window gap.  She got her first decent uninterrupted night’s sleep since moving in and is not waking up 4 or 5 times a night any more.  Studies show that fresh air is medically beneficial to not only your sleep but mental and physical health.

 

Technical Details

Drop-Rod Version – Unless you have a low ceiling the drop-rod version is recommended and we stock drop-rods of up to 72″/280cm in order to bring the fan down to the optimum height for best performance which is around 2.3m high.  To order a drop-rod please visit the MrKen drop-rod listing.

Hugger Version – For low ceilings the MrKen Wood can be mounted as a hugger/flush mount version.  To do this a separate adaptor kit to reduce the drop of the fan from 38 cm to 23 cm.  Installation instructions are here.

White finish – The white blade and body colour match is not a pure brilliant white colour but a slight off-white (touch of cream) as this is a far popular finish. There are a few small natural flecks/grain and cutting marks from the manufacturing process that you will see on the white blades when looking close up but not notice when the fan is up.  This would be expensive to eliminate completely.  These marks cannot be seen on the other colours so if you prefer a perfect finish then please either go for another colour or the ABS plastic moulded blade version. A traditional 2D plywood blade is another cheaper alternative.

Handset Types- We have two styles of handset control both identical in function.  Your fan will ship with whatever was available in the factory.  If you want a particular style please put this on your order note.

7 reviews for MrKen 3D Solid Wood Designer Low Energy DC Ceiling Fan – 52″/132cm, Hugger or Drop Rod, Lifetime Warranty

  1. Truly Amazing Fan – Stephen King (verified owner)

    I have purchased 3 of these for my lounge and bedroom. I had to spend a bit of time getting them balanced as they were wobbling to start with which wasn’t as simple as I was expecting. They are not only a great looking fan but work so well with the 6 speeds. I just leave them running all the time on low speed as totally quiet and cheap as chips to run. Compared to my ugly old fans they are – excuse the pun – a real revolution!

  2. Absolutely Brilliant! – Tony Miller (verified owner)

    I bought 10 of these for my holiday home in Thailand (pictured) and they are simply brilliant. They look very modern and fashionable providing a nice simple clean focus to the room in lovely finishes unlike the fussy plastic old fashioned design of most ceiling fans. They work amazingly well and are also totally silent which is essential for the bedrooms. I have turned the air conditioning set temperature up (ie reduced use) since it was too cold with the fan running as well. They are saving me a lot of money since during the daytime I no longer use the air conditioning at all as the fans are sufficient.

  3. Impressive products – Hans Schwarz (verified owner)

    A simple and stylish design but oh so very effective! Better than German design I am sorry to say with impressive performance – so quiet and yet move the air so effectively.

  4. Great style and performance – Allard Dekker (verified owner)

    I am an advertising designer and went for the lovely clean styling of this fan. Now it is up I am also surprised at just how good it is at cooling my lounge down. Great job MrKen!

  5. Very nice products – Stephen Copeland (verified owner)

    This fan is made to a high standard, look very nice and works well – what all products should be.

  6. Impressive looks – Maria Lancaster (verified owner)

    The maple blades with the black body looks really cool in my new apartment. All my friends are impressed!

  7. We love these fans – Cameron Lake (verified owner)

    We saw these in our hotel in Thailand and immediately fell in love with them. We are so pleased that they are available in England and bought three of them for our home which look really nice and work so well. Thank you Henley Fan!
