Stylish throughout the house,
September 28, 2006
By StylishinRichmond
"I purchased 4 of these fans to coordinate with the contemporary whole house change out from bright brass to brushed nickel. One for the kitchen, florida room, great room and master suite. I didn't realize until they were installed how truely stylish, quiet, and functional they were. I purchased the extra downrods also since the ceilings were so high. These are the best fans I've ever seen or owned and the price is excellent! It took the contractor about 1 1/2 hours to replace each fan."

"We ended up getting this fan for a real good deal,(someone returned it to our local home depot). we love it. it took my wife and I a little over an hour to put in and we are thinking about getting another for our bedroom. This fan is very sleek and extremely quiet yet very powerful and comes with everything except the battery for the remote."

Looks sleek stylish,
February 6, 2010
By HHx2
"be prepared for a magnetic screwdriver for the lone access hole to secure each fan blade screws....after all that,it's well worth it.
Not much room either in the fan housing to hold the remote box,but after some pulling and tugging,it fit."

Great Fan...,
January 25, 2010
By YtsejaM
"Once you see this fan in person, you'll realize how beautiful it really is. It seems that this product has changed a little over the last few years that it's been offered (based on reading the older reviews here). If you buy it today you will get an included wall remote that allows you to control the light and turn the fan on Hi-Med-Low. I should also note that the remote is black with silver buttons (not white for those that care) and includes a wall mount. There is no reverse button on the remote - it's a switch located on the top of the fan. Also, there is only a 5 inch downrod included in the box. Unfortunately HD does not carry a matching downrod in this color - I had to go to another retailer to purchase a 12 inch downrod in this color. Installation wasn't difficult - wire nuts and little parts are included and the instructions were clear and pretty complete. Another nice feature is that the receiver for the remote mounts inside the dome at the top of the downrod, so there's no need to find a space to mount it in the ceiling. I was also impressed with how well the parts are protected in the box. It certainly feels and looks like a $200+ fan."

Terriffic Fan,
November 19, 2009
By JimboPro
"I bought this fan recently and love it. The look of the unit is very slick and modern and fits right in my decor. It is so quite even on the high speed. It also has a great wall switch that is very convenient and allows you to adjust the fan and the light."

Beautiful fan,

By kris10lb
"Fan looks absolutely great with the rest of the decor in my house. Wished it came in a 52" size so I could've had another one in the front living room. Shipping was fairly quick and very happy nothing was broken."

Totally Cool Ceiling Fan,
August 17, 2009
By Crossover
"I usually only buy Hunter Ceiling fans but I loved the design of this Hampton Bay so I took a chance and I'm glad I did. The fan is gorgeous! It runs quietly and looks totally cool in my family room, and speaking of cool, it easily handles this 625 sq. ft. room. The remote control is simple to operate and the light gives off a pleasing overhead illumination. I am crossing over from traditional style to modern and this fan fits right in. I can't speak to ease of assembly or installation because I had an electrician do the work."

By fayzer
"I absolutely LOVE this fan. I am in remote heaven with the quietest running fan ever. I am able to control the speed of the fan as well as the degree of light with just a touch on the remote. There is never a wobble or or noise with this beautiful fan!"

Great and modern ceiling fan,
July 9, 2009
By LLH4
"We researched a lot of ceiling fans and decided on this model. We like the look of the brushed nickel. It is very modern. We just completed a remodel, so an electrician installed the ceiling fan. It did not take them too long. The model comes with a remote (you have to purchase the battery), but works fine with remote or wall switch. The fan is very quiet on all speeds and so relaxing in the bedroom. I would definately recommend this fan to anyone considering it. It also comes in a model with black blades that my husband also liked, so that is another option. Great value for the money!"

Works well, uses halogen light,
March 16, 2009
By et61
"The fan works great. We have 4 of them in a home and they run very quietly, actually one of the quietest fans we have owned. Replacement domes are somewhat expensive, so don't break the light.
The one thing I would prefer is a non-halogen light. We backed off to a 75W light bulb instead of the 100 W."

Great!,
January 5, 2009
By rlprecourt
"I purchased two of these over 2 years ago for my bedrooms and they have proven to be wonderful. They run very smooth and quiet. The best thing about them is the way the wall control is designed. It is by far the best I've seen and makes for the easiest installation. The control only requires you to run standard 2 conductor wire to the fan, which means you can easily install these in rooms that already have a standard light fixture/wall switch without doing anything special. They have worked great for two years and I use them often. Wall control allows spped control, light on/off and dimming and reversing. You can also use any Hampton Bay remotes with these, so I also have a handheld remote on my bedside table, so I can control from my bed as well as from the wall control. All and all these are great fans and I highly recommend them. The only downside I can find is that the light isn't the brightest, but it's ok. Fine for me, since I also have table lamps in both rooms."

Wonderful Contemporary Ceiling Fan,
August 3, 2008
By PaulSTL
"Absolutely beautiful contemporary design, excellent air movement, silent operation (except wind-noise when on high) and a very bright light – the globe is not overly frosted as others tend to be – which makes it perfect for the kitchen where this one is.
I have installed several other ceiling fans over the years and the installation of the blades on this fan is a bit tricky, as others have mentioned, but worth it for the finished look.
The included remote uses a non-standard battery – not included – so make sure you pick that up as well, or, as I have done with this and other fans, get a different remote/receiver kit.
I dislike the remote controls that are included and as more and more fans are coming with those as the only option, I am glad to have found another option – which Home Depot also sells. The Lutron MAESTRO DUO remote fan and light control. It comes with the receiver but the ‘remote unit’ replaces the wall switch – so nothing to lose or break and no batteries are needed – and it is meant for ‘single pole’ (wire) situations like mine. At around $50 it is pricey, but well worth it to me. I have used these on all 4 ceiling fans in my home – 2 that came with remote-only controls (no pull chains) and 2 that were standard pull-chain. Installation for this is also very easy and I have never had a problem with any of them."

Love it, but...,
July 21, 2008
By RickDIY
"I bought on of these fans for my new home.
I love the look, but the fan hums on low and medium speed.
On low, it's kind of a "pulsating hum".
hummmph... hummmph...
I'm a light sleeper and am VERY sensitive to noises such as this.
I'm using the solid stae remote control that came with it.
Others have said this fan is "silent".
Is mine defective?
Is there a capacitor or something that may be and should be replaced?
Help!"

"I was skeptical when I saw the fan in the store because it is so modern looking, but I am so glad I bought it. Once it was hung, on a 3 ft downrod, it looks great. It is quiet and moves the air very well even on low speed. The dimmer on the light and the remote control are great features. Everyone who has seen it has commented on what a unique fan it is."

A sleek, modern beauty!,
June 8, 2008
By FannyFanFan
"Gorgeous stainless/brushed nickel look and an extremely silent fan! Installation is on par with most fans but you will need a second hand to finish things off with the blades. Now that it is an in-stock item at HD, the price has come down so go grab one for your modern home!"
