65" Modern Brushed Nickel DC Motor Downrod Mount Reversible Ceiling Fan with Lighting and Remote Control

I was disappointed how bright the finish is as it was described as brushed nickel yet appears as polished (go by your monitor pictures in this case rather than descriptions); more disappointment when Parrot Uncle wouldn’t pay for return shipping so I could exchange it claiming the finish issue isn’t a ‘quality’ issue. Myself, I think describing inaccurately is a quality control issue. Description error and service shortcomings aside, the fan is very nice looking, classy, and can prob compliment an array of decor. Sadly, not mine.

When I say industrial, I don’t mean bad finish…fit and finish is excellent, the fan looks great and performs even better. Installation is straight forward and fairly easy (follow the pics on the manual). I have a high ceiling and the remote is one of the best features, lights and fan (six speeds by the way) are just a click away, can reverse it with the remote too. Really full functions on the remote…so why the four stars? It is the first item on the troubleshooting guide, it makes a clicking noise in the slowest mode, but goes away when the speed increases. Let me just say, this is the fastest turning fan of this size I have ever used or seen, it really is a great addition to the home. If you are looking forma big fan…this is it!

This is a BIG fan with big performance. The crystal frosted lampshade sparkles, like a thousand stars, when the light is on. It makes a spectacular conversation piece. The ergonomic hand held remote control gave me complete control over every function, even fan blade reverse operation. Within two seconds of pushing the fan "On" button & selecting the speed, the fan began to turn. Each consecutive push of the six fan speed buttons, impressively increased the fan speed. The other choices on the remote control: (1) ( I really like this one) A fan variable speed button, where the fan, on it's own, slows down, or speeds up to replicate the feeling of a natural breeze; (2) Three timer selections, where you might want the fan to run for 1 hr., 4 hr., or 8 hours before shutting off; (3) A button to turn the light "Off", or "On"; (4) A big bonus security button where the light will turn on for 5 to 20 minutes, every 2 hours, giving the appearance someone is home. All those functions worked flawlessly. The fan was very quiet during every speed, circulating a lot of air around the room. The product came with a lot of parts, so I just followed the step by step instructions manual that clearly shown, in mostly large graphics, where everything goes. The supplied ceiling fan mounting bracket, also stores the remote control receiver. What I did, to make sure the receiver would fit into the mounting bracket, given all the wires involved, I disconnected the quick disconnect pigtail from the receiver, I wire nutted the house wires to the receiver's pigtail wires, tucked the wire nutted house wires into the junction box so only the receiver wires extended out of the junction box & then plugged the receiver's quick disconnect back into the receiver. The ceiling fan comes with a basic short down rod, however the package includes a 39" long electrical cable extension. This is very handy if you want to replace the short down rod with a longer one.
