A blade of a ceiling fan crashed down near a baby's cot mere minutes after the father had carried the child out of the bedroom."At 6.10pm, I switched on my Fanco ceiling fan in the master bedroom, where my three-month-old baby usually naps in the day and sleeps at night," recounted the Stomper.
"I had just carried him out to his nursery in the next room when I heard a loud crash from the master bedroom.""I realised that one of the fan blades had broken and spun off, hitting the wardrobe and then the wall before landing near my baby’s cot," said the Stomper. "Thankfully, I had just carried my baby out a few minutes ago and no one was in the room at that time! We were just one to 2m away from the crash.""But when the technician arrived, he took a picture and sent it to his in charge and the person in charge told me over the phone that our ceiling fan was off-centre and too close to our wardrobe," said the Stomper."But this doesn’t make sense.
"To be honest, after my experience, I don't think anyone would want to use a Fanco fan again. That’s why we rejected their replacement fan blade and had asked them to compensate us in cash instead. Unfortunately we haven't heard from them ever since.". The photos were tagged to Fanco Fan Marketing and were date stamped March 29, a day before the Stomper's fan broke.
