There are many verities of ceiling fans too that one can find in the market. Like there are few with lights and there are few with artistic designs on the blades. Even the blade sizes differ according to the room. For instance in big churches or railway stations one may find fans with really big blades. These big blades are to cover more area with just one equipment.

Table fans have an oscillator gearbox and oscillator shaft, which helps these fans to give air from one direction to another, covering almost the half of the room. These are good for small office or personal spaces.
