Pretty easy install, if you have ever installed a ceiling fan before, this one runs the course as the rest. Wire management inside the housing is a concern, but after playing electrical Tetris for a few minutes, we figured out how to get it all in there. The light is very cream-blue–white. There’s no dimming which is frustrating because we placed it in our bedroom. The air movement is pretty good. However, it’s basically downward with not much movement going outward. That being said, after 15 minutes, laying watching TV under it, I realized I was cold and threw a blanket over myself. The finish is nice. It seems more of a painted finished than backed on, but it’s on the ceiling, no one is touching it. Good luck watching TV though. The glare on our big screen TV is pretty bad. But that’s not the fans fault it’s just the nature of this kind of light fixture. It didn’t come with batteries for the remote and the thing doesn’t work without the remote. That would be a huge frustration but luckily I had the batteries in a drawer downstairs from my car key fobs. The wind function is novel. If I wasn’t watching TV, it wouldn’t be annoying but it basically amps up and then reduces the speed giving you a simulated breeze experience. However, when it goes to the highest, you have the “fan sound“ and then it relaxes back down and up. It’s an interesting idea, but probably more so for relaxing and reading a book or taking a nap.
