We all know how the weather in Singapore can get pretty hot. As such, a standing fan at home sometimes isn’t enough if your room is big and you need more air circulation. This is why ceiling fans are common in Singapore homes. But some people want a ceiling fan with lights instead, so they don’t have to purchase a light separately.
If you’re looking to buy a ceiling fan with lights for your home, this article looks at the 10 best ones you can find in Singapore, starting as low as $190.
But first, let’s take a quick look at the advantages that a ceiling fan with lights has over a normal ceiling fan.
What are the advantages of ceiling fans with lights?
These are some of the key reasons why you might want to buy a ceiling fan with lights, over a normal ceiling fan.
Style and convenience
For one, you get to have a great modern-looking piece of furniture at home, and you no longer have to worry about how to position ceiling lights with respect to your ceiling fan!
Mood lighting
Many ceiling fans with lights provide different levels of luminosity as well, thereby functioning as mood lighting. Mood lights essentially are lighting that help to set different atmospheres.
Ceiling fans with lights: AC or DC?
As you read on, you may come across fan motors marked as AC or DC. This refers to alternating current and direct current, respectively.
DC motors use less energy compared to a standard AC fan, and are generally extremely quiet. They often have more speed options, start and stop faster, and have a slimmer motor design, which means they save more space.
So why hasn’t everyone changed to DC fans?
For one, DC fans are more expensive compared to their AC counterparts, and the difference in energy efficiency has been decreasing as technology improves. They can also only be controlled by remote, with wall options available at extra cost.
All in all, there aren’t that many reasons to pick a DC fan over an AC fan.
Whether it’s an AC or a DC fan though, finding the right ceiling fan with lights can be tough. To help you narrow down your options, we’ve compiled 10 ceiling fans with lights that you should check out.

Panasonic has been a household name in Singapore for decades, and is as trusted as much as brands like Sony and Philips. The benefit that these Panasonic ceiling fans have over a few of the other fans is that they run on DC motor.

- Low: 80
- High: 230

- Net weight: 6.2 kg
KDK ceiling fans are reputed to be one of the most value-for-money fans in the market. They do their job well, are affordable, and don’t malfunction easily.
The U60FW model has a 9-speed control option, as well as an on-timer and off-timer. It also features a DC motor and a sleep mode option, which could help you save more energy in your home.
4) KDK U48FP Ceiling Fan with LED Light and Remote
Price: $438

- Colour: Black and white
- RPM:
- Low: 80
- High: 235
- Light: LED lighting with 3 brightness options
- Motor: DC Motor
- Material: PPG blades
- Weight: 4.9 kg
Like the KDK U60FW, the KDK U48FP ceiling fan with lights utilises a DC motor. The other specs for both fans are also quite similar.
This fan also comes with a Yuragi function, which uses a fluctuating pattern to generate a gentle breeze. As it produces a more peaceful and comfortable breeze, it’s a useful function for when you’re sleeping.
5) Fanco E-Trinity 52-Inch 3-Blade Ceiling Fan with LED Light and Remote Control
Price: $399
View on Lazada
View on Shopee
- Colour: White
- Light: LED lighting with 4 brightness options
- Material: ABS blades
- Size: 52 in
The second Fanco entry on the list, this ceiling fan with lights features twisted blades.
On normal fans, the speed at the tip is higher than the speed at the base. This causes extra drag near the tips, which can wear out the blades quicker.
To counter this, Fanco has made the tips curve upwards, so that the drag is equal along all edges of the blades, resulting in a longer product lifespan. It also has the benefit of looking quite futuristic.
This particular model also has an ultra-silent motor, which means that it might be ideal for your bedroom if you’re sensitive to noise.
6) PO ECO ALBA Ceiling Fan with LED Light
Price: $469
View on Lazada
View on Shopee
- Colour: Cherry wood blades
- Light: OSRAM LED lighting with 3 colour options, including a dimmer function
- Size: 52 in
- Motor: DC motor with Japanese ceramic ball bearing
This is an interesting ceiling fan with lights. The product page states that the fan can spin backwards, which is something limited to fans with DC motors.
Unfortunately, a fan with propellers such as this would mean that cooler air gets pulled up into your fan and hot air is recirculated around your room, making it hotter. The function would be great for countries with cold weather, but might not be that feasible for sunny Singapore.
However, the ball bearing motor means that the motor will experience less wear and tear due to decreased friction. This allows it to run longer, and since the ball bearings are made of ceramic instead of metal, they probably won’t get damaged as easily either.
The good thing about fans with polished wooden blades is that they don’t rust. They’re easier to clean since they naturally repel dirt, and can be taken down and blasted with a hose. In contrast, metal blade fans require you to wipe them down with a damp towel several times, which can be rather laborious.
7) Fanco A-Con 42-Inch Ceiling Fan with LED Light and Remote Control
Price: $190
View on Lazada
- Size: 42 in
- Material: ABS blade
- Motor: Super 188 motor
- Colour: Wood, matte black, silver, white, bronze
This Fanco fan is another budget-friendly ceiling fan with lights on this list. It comes with 3 speed options: low, medium, and high that you can choose from.
And with a shorter blade measuring 42 inches, it’s suitable for a smaller room such as the bedroom.
Plus, the motor is ultra-silent, which is a nice feature especially if you’re sensitive to sounds when sleeping.
8) Crestar Ninja Air 3 Blades Ceiling Fan
Price: $215

View on Shopee
- Size:
- 42 in
- 48 in
- Colour: White, matt black, dark wood
- Motor: DC motor
- Material: ABS blades
- Lighting: LED light with 3 brightness options
What makes this Crestar ceiling fan with lights unique from the rest is that you can control a lot of settings using the remote. This includes changing the speed (which has 6 speed options), timer (1, 3, and 6 hours), and the LED light brightness (day, warm, and cool).
Another good thing about this ceiling fan is that it comes with a 1-year warranty for its parts and LED driver, and a 10-year warranty for the motor.

Price: $288

- Size:
- 38 in
- 43 in
