MaCe 3 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 the difference in price means a lot in quality.my kdk wont have any noise/sound when oscillating even after 7-10yrs.my cheapo akira/powerpacs there was noise the moment i switch them on for the FIRST TIME!but then ok for living areas though...when noise can be tolerated. def nono for bedrooms.

Our KDK standing fan has been with us for the past 8 years and still going strong. But during this period, I have changed countless of those $29.90-$49.90 fan. Will be getting KDK fan when I move to my own place.i am not too sure about their price yet, is Mistral more expensive? besides the quality, what about noise level? where can I get Mistral huh? most big stores are selling toyomi leh.Neighbourhood shops and major electrical stores.

sparrow 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 I am looking for tower fan. Does KDK have tower fan? Any good brands to recommend? I have been using KDK desk/ standing fans for years and they are still working well so I have confidence in their products. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tingshen 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 actually based on my experience, National is still the most solid fan maker.....but SG seems to be out liao. Panasonic also focusing more on aircon instead of fan....sianz....$90 for Mistral is quite reasonable, coz toyomi also cost about there leh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
