How to choose

Match fan size to the room

Fan size is the first figure to compare for a small room. The Bell+Howell measures 10 inches, the LEDIARY measures 20 inches, the Watfal measures 20.47 inches, the Glowall measures 25 inches, and the Phylluz measures 32 inches. Measure the space where the fan will hang and leave clearance around furniture and walls.

Compare remotes, apps and lights

All five picks have a remote, and the LEDIARY and the Phylluz also have app control. The LEDIARY, the Phylluz, the Glowall and the Watfal have dimmable lights, while the Bell+Howell uses a socket LED light. Check the light type before you choose, since a built-in LED light and a socket fan need different replacements.

Check mounting and timers

Socket fans screw into a light socket, while flush mount fans sit close to the ceiling. The Bell+Howell and the Watfal are socket fans, and the LEDIARY, the Phylluz and the Glowall are flush mount picks. For timers, the Glowall and the Watfal timers run 2 or 4 hours, and the LEDIARY and the Phylluz have remote control for their settings.
