60" Newbury Industrial DC Motor Downrod Mount Reversible Ceiling Fan with Lighting and Remote Control

I installed this fan in my living room and it looks amazing. The walnut and black finish adds a modern sophistication to the room. Overall, I think the design is fantastic. The user manual is clear and concise with step by step instructions so installation was pretty straightforward. The fan operates with a full function remote control. The remote turns the fan on and off, adjusts the fan to six different speeds, reverses the fan for winter and summer, dims the LED light and changes the light color temperature. While the fan has more features than most fans I've used previously, it does feel a little lightweight. However, it is quiet and can be adjusted to a speed that suits your individual need. I also like the LED light because it's bright, energy efficient and means I won't have to change a lightbulb periodically.

The included instructions were very clear and made the installation a breeze. The mounting bracket was able to be installed with all the included hardware. The quick connecters for the control box were a very nice touch and I was able to disconnect them after wiring to slide the control box into the mounting bracket with plug and play ease. I was also able to make all the necessary wiring connections with the included wire nuts. The included light kit also features a quick connector and the housing screw in with minimal effort. The different lighting temperatures is also a nice touch. The fan has 6 speed settings. The overall design of and fan resembles an airplane propeller.

Picking up the box I thought this must be a really small, cheap, lightweight ceiling fan. Looking at the blades, they’re made out of plastic and the small motor is about the size of a 8 in. two-layer cake. So where do I put this. I finally decided an upstairs computer room where nobody would see it. Unpacking the box, the instructions seemed clear. Another look at the plastic blades, they’re precisely made, you can see that someone put some engineering into them. The material was smooth and the design was excellent. The installation was challenging because I assembled parts and connected wires overhead, but it went well. I mixed up the canopy and canopy cover, wire nuts were somewhat a problem and I had to strip a little more wire than given. When I twist stranded wire with solid wire, I like to strip the stranded wire a little longer so it can wrap around the solid wire. Wago connectors would have been nice especially for all the ground wires. The remote does everything, even reversing the direction of the blades.. Now I realize how high tech the fan is, no more ugly flat blades, these blades mimic wind turbines. The fan is quiet except for pleasant wind noise at higher speeds, and it’s solid, no wobbling. Its compact and powerful too. The remote seems to have some delay, but it’s just different. What a nice fan!
