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.
Yes, I recommend this product.

with an existing mount box, the product itself included everything needed to complete the assembly and hang the fixture. with the moderate background i have in similar around-the-house projects, the project was 90 minutes start-to-finish. two down-sides were #1, trying to fit all the wires into the mounting bell with the remote control (reciever) box required some extra manipulations. were i to do this again, i'd wire the reciever to the source first, then tuck the wires into the mount box before connecting the fan to the reciever. also #2, though untouched by human hands, the quartz bulb failed that very night. not a big deal, but did set me back $9 to replace it. my wife loves the fan itself. it looks great, moves a lot of air and is very quiet.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great fan, it runs quiet and well balanced right out of the box. You will need a little pre fan install experience. Wiring is a little tight with the remote receiver. But overall a great running fan. Replacment lamp is 8-10 dollars. MY kids figured out the light is dimmable by holding the remote lamp button in. We liked the first one so much we bought another.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Comes complete with remote and looks great in my living room. I only wish it came in a slightly bigger size for the room but the air circulation is great. light is a bit dim but i installed track lighting in the room also so it looks fabulous. wish I had ordered another one of these for my master room rather than the other fan i ordered. Love the look and love the fan!!

I gave the fan 5 stars cause it was very easy to install and works and looks great! The light is just enough to softly light up the 24' x 24' room it was installed in though I do have a cathedral ceiling. Even though I gave it 5 stars, there were a couple things that I was not impressed with. Since I had to order this online, I knew I needed a 24" extension rod for the fan. Home Depot carries this extension, how ever I was unable to purchase it with the fan for delivery and had to drive to Home Depot to get one. Also, the fans remote does NOT come with a battery. I felt that for a $250 fan that they would at least include the battery for the remote. Other than those 2 issues, I am impressed with the fan.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We purchased this fan as a replacement for a Casablanca fan because it is nice looking, has a remote, and we have liked Hampton Bay fans in the past. It has been installled for a couple of years. For the past year, it has been making all sorts of noises. The dome rattled on the ceiling, so we put rubber on top. Now the motor is humming, even on low. There is also an odd rubbing sound which we can't isolate. The light bulb is a huge nuisance to replace. I'm looking for yet another replacement ...
No, I do not recommend this product.

I bought this fan for my kitchen to match my stainless steel appliances. It is a beautiful fan and fairly easy to install except there is definitely not enough light. It came with a halogen bulb that was not bright enough and there is no option to increase the bulb to a stronger wattage. I am now installing track lighting just to add more light. I don't recommend this fan for an area that needs a lot of light.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I saw this fan in the store and liked the look. It's very sleek and modern looking. When it went on sale online I had to purchase it. I'm glad I did. The fan is super smooth running (no wobbles) and super quite. I like the remote and the basic operation and selections (Fan hi/med/low and Light on/off/dimming). The only negative would be that in order to change the direction of the fan you have to flip a switch on top of the fan. The fan came with what looked like about a thousand pieces but it went together fairly easy. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend this fan to anyone.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I just recently purchased this ceiling fan when I was remodeling my Kitchen. Initially we were going with pennant lights but when I saw this , I knew I had to have it. The only concern, I have is the decorators installed it and threw out the manual and now I don't know how to change the light bulb in it. It looks awesome in my Kitchen, considering I've upgraded to Stainless Steel appliances.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought this fan to update a late 90's version in my family room. The room is very large (open concept), so the lighting is not good for a room where u intend to read or do something that takes light! We're gonna have to put in recessed lights and are using to table lamps to supplement until we can get that done.
The fan is very attracitve aesthetically. The fan is smooth and gives off a good amount of circulation. I special ordered the maple version (which has been discontinued, so can't get replacement parts) which was $50 more. Spending that amount of money I wouldn't have expected that I can't get replacement parts, because the shade got a hairline crack when installing. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN as stated in the instructions; so that was my fault. My husband took 5 hours and 3 trips to HomeDepot putting it up, so needless to say he hates it! The remote and plate doesn't fit the standard light switch without a little "coaxing." Again, my husband went to the store 3x trying to find a fit.
We researched a couple of lighting shops/specialty shops and for the price, you can special order a high end fan w/ light kit included. There's more of a custom selection for maybe $20 more. If this wasn't a special order and the color didn't go so well with the living room, I would probably send it back.
Yes, I recommend this product.

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.

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.

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.
Yes, I recommend this product.
