Small and fairly quiet...
We have a 1950's 3Brd 1 Bath house. We use the two smaller rooms as a nursery and a den/office. Both of the smaller rooms would look strange with a standard sized fan, so we decided to get the smallest fan out there. 30 inches seem to be the smallest available. There were 32 inch ones at home depot, but they didn't look as nice as these. So I bought two of the TURBO SWIRL. First, you need to read the directions on how to assemble. If you are too impatient, find another fan. Second, one of the fans seemed to wabble more and make more noise. I returned it and the new one seemed to be fine.
I've had the fans for over a year now and they have been good for us. It's helped alot with the summer heat wave from last year. Just a few days ago, one of the fans started acting up. It was slower than the other and the directional control seemed out of whack. I called westinghouse and they are sending me a replacement capacitor for free. 10-14 business days to arrive.

My experience may explain why some reviewers said that they got good airflow, while others said that it didn't do much of anything. With very limited spacing above the blades there isn't much room for them to pull from, and this thing just kind of stirs up the air in the room a bit. Standing directly below it while it is running at full blast you'll find very little air flow in either fan direction.

Using the included standoff would probably help, but I still have a relatively low ceiling in here, and don't want to risk injuring any tall friends.

So, I did some reading on ceiling fans, and a high number of blades also has a...
Westinghouse 78248 Turbo Swirl Single-Light 30-Inch 6 Blade Fan
Ordered 2 of the subject items, installed one into one of our guess bed rooms. Works & looks very well, not to mention the ease of installation (just follow the directions if you are not mechanically in depth). With old fan removal + assembly & installation took less than 90 minutes. If you have a room that's 10X10 - 12X12 this will work wonderfully, mind you these are not for cooling a room just air circulation.
