Completed our Rhodes set, looks great!!!,
December 7, 2009
"We have the Rhodes single pendant light over our kitchen sink and the bowl pendant light over our breakfast nook. This fan was the one we wanted for our den.
We installed the fan using the shorter rod and we love it! I would have only used the longer rod if our ceiling was much taller (I think we have 9 ft. ceilings). The remote works perfectly, even when it's not directly pointed at the fan. The three fan settings are an ideal balance (we usually have ours on Medium) and there is both a downlight in a globe and an uplight in the glass ring around the top.
If this fan is the primary light source in a room, you might want to consider floor lamps or recessed lighting or something. The lighting is great at night, but nothing more than ambient during the daytime.
I definitely recommend this light if you don't need a ton of light from your ceiling fan."

Wonderful ceiling fan if you want diffused light,
April 22, 2009
By Vanguard
from Nashville, Tennessee
"We put one of these fans in each room of our house. Reason? We like diffused overhead lighting (nothing worse than looking up and seeing a bare bulb), we like the common remote for each room (we attach them to the door frame), the glass is stunning, both on and off, and we are wanting to lower our energy bills (ceiling fans help with this). Installation is easy, although with the remote feature it gets a little tight in the ceiling junction box. The dimming feature is really nice as well, particularly for night light capability. The only complaint is if you need bright light, which we provide with isolated task lighting. NO REGRETS SO FAR!"

Perfect!,
March 30, 2009
"I bought the pendant lights, the matching ceiling fan and the chandelier for my kitchen and family room. They are beautiful, giving a warm glow to the area. The ceiling fan is simply beautiful to look at - I have received numerous compliments on them from my friends and family. I am going to order the recessed lights next to complete the look!"

nutmeg art glass fan and light collection,
September 16, 2008
"I replaced all of the lighting in my home wiht this collection, including two fans, large ceiling pendants, smaller hanging pendants, and recessed. It was economical and turned out beautifully. Buyers beware that most of these items (not the fan because it is special order) but the pendants, chandeliers and recessed covers can be bought at your local store for sometimes less than half the price of the prices on line. My only complaint would be that the amber glass does soften the lighting to the point that I ended up having to install more recessed lighting than initially planned. But overall, I believe I made the best choice. It is very difficult to find a complete lighting line, including fans, in this price range that is aestheticaly pleasing. Believe me, I checked out everything available in DFW, and this was by far the best choice. Great transitional lighting to update older homes."

beautiful lighting collection,
September 14, 2007
"The fan is pretty and fits in well with the entire collection. We have an open great room type of floor plan and needed a foyer light, a breakfast nook light, a dining room chandelier and a ceiling fan for teh living room and this collection fits our traditional yet modern house. Do not purchase this fan if you want it to be the main source of light in your room as it only throws a glowing accent type of light. Other than that it is a beautiful piece. It was packaged very well. I purchased it when ceiling fans were on sale."

beautiful,
March 30, 2007
"we put this fan in our family room, and put two of the matching pendant lights in our kitchen. the fan is absolutely great looking, though it does not really provide enough light to be the only light source in the room.
overall -- gorgeous fan, provides a very nice (though somewhat dim) light
installation -- could definitely be better. the receiver for the remote has to be wired in and you must make it (plus all the wires) fit into the outlet box in the ceiling. it's definitely not the easiest process, but if you're careful to trim the wires to just the length that you need to connect them, it can be done without TOO much frustration.
ongoing issue -- when the is running, the lights tend to turn themselves on and off on occasion..?
all in all, though, it's a great looking fan and we're very happy to have it in our home!"
