Never. Never. Never. Install a ceiling fan. Difficult to clean and always worry about it falling off. Rather buy a standalone fan which you can keep it when not in use.

It really depends! A standalone fan takes up space, and may be seen as an eyesore too. Cleaning a ceiling fan does require a step ladder, but you wouldn’t have to open up the fan unlike with standalone ones. It could also be louder, depending on the fan model you purchase, and cover a smaller area. You’ll also need to use a socket, and have a wire running across the floor which can be aesthetically displeasing. The safety of fans installed on ceilings is generally something taken for granted because there are very few to no cases of ceiling fans falling too, although yes there is a risk that this could take place. We do think the benefits of a ceiling fan outweigh not having one since the ventilation provided through a ceiling fan is superior to a standalone one.
