Sofucor 52" Low Profile Ceiling Fan with Light vs 20" Farmhouse Caged Ceiling Fan with Light

Buy the Sofucor 52" if you have a normal or low ceiling in a large room and want real airflow from solid wood blades. Buy the 20" caged farmhouse fan if the room is small and safety around the spinning blades matters, as in a nursery or kids' room. The Sofucor moves far more air and has a bigger, dimmable LED with three color temperatures; the caged fan is smaller, fully enclosed, and uses four E26 bulbs. Owners of the Sofucor praise the quiet DC motor, the balanced blades and the easy install, but some call the light underwhelming and the remote glitchy. The caged fan is the safer, more decorative pick, but it is a small-room fixture and needs assembly.

• Choose the Sofucor if you need serious airflow in a living room, bedroom or kitchen and want solid wood blades, a 52-inch span and a dimmable LED with three color temperatures.
• Choose the 20" Farmhouse fan if the room is small or has a low ceiling and you want enclosed blades that are safe around kids, with a caged look and four bulbs.
