Good quality fan for the price
I'm mostly used to $250+ ceiling fan/light units, but I just installed this fan in our master bedroom and am really pleased with the quality. For a $120+ fan it has almost everything that a $200+ fan has as far as the look and quality of construction. The only minor things that it lacks are that out of the box the fan wobbled sightly on the high speed setting (it comes with a balancing kit which I used to resolve this problem). Also, the motor is not perfectly silent, though it is pretty quiet - certainly quieter than the sound of the wind that the fan creates. Aside from those two minor items, all is well and the price is certainly low for what you get.
The one thing that you don't see in the pictures are the two pull-chains that dangle from opposite sides of the unit, just below the fan. The fan has a 75 watt halogen light inside the frosted-glass fixture. This puts out a reasonable amount of light, though it will not light up a room like a 3-bulb fixture that you...
great product
The fan arrived very fast, and with the free shipping option. It looks great in my room and completes the remake of the room. I purchased a great couch that was red vinyl with chrome arms and feet, the fan completes the room. The quality is just as described. The air flow is better than expected. If you hear any noise when you install the fan, just check to see if the wires are not sticking up and hitting the blades. It is very quiet and cooling!! Would buy again :)
Great fan! And easy fix for dim light complaints
I love this fan! Its been great and moves a ton of air. Most of the poor reviews are based on the light being too dim. EASY FIX!! There are a lot of high energy compact halogen lights available now. We got the largest replacement that would fit (150w equivalent) and it uses about 23w and puts out a good amount of light.
It does have a thick frosting on the glass, and standard 75w bulb probably would have been dim. The replacement bulbs arent super cheap, but they work well. If you just paid $175 for a fan, paying $10 or so for a bulb and not having to worry about it for 5 years shouldnt be a big deal.
We plan on buying one for the other end of the room actually, just to balance out the room and make the light fixtures match. We dont really need another fan in the room, but we like them to match, and if it moves too much air we can always turn it down.
Ours is mounted using the downrod elimination bracket and is mounted very securely to the...
