You cannot put a ceiling fan in this room. You cannot put a wall fan either. The roof is wrong. The wall has no space. An office table already owns the square footage.
On the channel, Nikhil walked through the Atomberg pedestal fan with electrician Nagabhushan — the same person from the wall-fan video. Unbox, stand, remote. No drill. This is the write-up.
Who this is actually for
Nikhil asked who prefers a pedestal fan. Nagabhushan’s answer, then Nikhil’s restatement:
Office where a ceiling fan and a wall-mount both fail. Roof is too tall, or there is simply no place to hang either machine. Computers, a table, guests. Put the stand in a corner. Swing, and the people at the table get the air, and so do the people walking in.
Home, sofa side. Behind the sofa there is often a leftover corner. Park it there. Everyone on the sofa, and guests, get the throw.
Nikhil’s close: offices, homes, no space for a wall-mount, no space for a ceiling fan. A nice corner. Anyone sitting in that room gets a lot of air.
He also said this is the product he personally uses in a balcony and a small home office. He has been using it for the last couple of years. Two years back he installed it himself.
The description line matches that: home-office corners, living rooms with low ceilings, offices where ceiling and wall fans will not fit. No drill. No holes. No electrician.
THIS instead: Atomberg Renesa pedestal (the black unit they assembled)
The carton on camera prints atomberg, PEDESTAL FAN, and RENESA. The picture on the box is a white fan. The machine they actually bolted together and plugged in is matte black — grill, blades, motor, rod, base.
They did not say the word Renesa or 400 mm out loud. The video description Amazon link is that exact listing, in the colour they built: atomberg Renesa 400mm Pedestal Fan (Midnight Black). Snow White is a colour option on the same family — not the ASIN in the description, and not the stand on the floor at the end.
Atomberg Renesa 400mm pedestal fan (Midnight Black), ₹3,699 on Amazon.in as of 3 Sep 2026. Listing wattage is 35W. That number is the listing, not spoken on camera.
Do not spec this as a ceiling fan. Do not spec it as the Atomberg wall fan or table fan that Amazon also sells under Renesa 400mm. Those are different machines. The wall unit needs two holes. This one needs a corner and a socket.

What is in the box (from the unboxing)
Nagabhushan: just open it. Front grill first, in the plastic bag. Motor. Base. Height rod / pillar. Blades. Remote.
The motor, he held it up: this is the motor, guys. Compact, same family as the wall unit.
Base. Nikhil asked if it was metal. Nagabhushan: no — it comes like PE / plastic. It has weight. There is a design pattern on it. That weight is why the stand does not need a hole in the floor.
Height rod. For the height you want. This is the extra versus the wall fan: a rod instead of a clamp.
The clip they flagged. A piece they clip on as a spacer, so the blades do not get damaged. Nagabhushan: it should not get damaged. Nikhil: they have used it just as a spacer to make sure the blade fan does not get damaged. The video description calls that the one real installation mistake, so you do not repeat it. Do not skip the spacer and grind the blades.
Same underlying technology as the wall-mount fan, he said. One thing he must say: the fit and finish is quite nice. Nagabhushan had told him the same thing off camera. No scratches, no dots, no miss paint. Almost feels like an automotive component.
Base, blade, guard (from the video)
Rod into the base. There is a piece to remove. A groove. Drop the rod into that groove, align, reverse it. A screw. Put the screw, tighten. That is the stand.
Guard onto the motor: four dots, four grooves. Same idea as the wall fan.
Plastic parts — Nikhil asked if they would be a problem. Nagabhushan’s line: unbreakable plastic.
Plastic blades. Groove, lock to the groove, tighten. That is it. Logo on the hub. Another groove on the front, match it, tighten, it locks.
Nagabhushan: one small screwdriver is enough. A tester. If you have a school screwdriver, that is enough. No drill. No holes. No special equipment.
Height and the button on the body
Rod screw: loosen, match the groove, tighten. Fan is ready.
Nikhil: one of the most simplest fans to assemble. No machine, no hole. Pretty reasonable height. You can also adjust the angle based on what you need.
They have a remote. You also have a button on the stand. Manual is there on the body as well. He called the finished unit quite nice looking, quite sleek. Very simple fan to install.
They plugged the cord into a normal wall socket on camera. No new wiring.
The limitation (also on camera)
This is not a 360° ceiling fan. It is a stand in a corner, with swing. Buy it when the ceiling and the wall are both the problem. If you can hang a ceiling fan properly, that is still the room machine. If you have a wall and two screws, that is the wall-fan video.
What to actually do (from the video)
No ceiling, no wall space. This is the job. Corner. No holes.
Office. Corner by the table. Swing covers the people at the computers and the guests.
Home. Corner behind the sofa. Same idea.
Spacer. Use the clip so the blades do not get damaged. That is the mistake they included.
Tool. One small screwdriver. Not a drill.
Socket. Plug it into a normal point. Remote, or the button on the stand.
Not a ceiling fan. Not the wall fan. Same brand, different machine.
