We love this fan! The large size of 72 inches and 8 blades is perfect for our intended location in a large second-story family room with a vaulted ceiling. The remote is a full function with features not normally found on ceiling fans – 6 speeds, the ability to auto-cycle through all six speeds, a “away” feature to turn the light on for a random time between 5 to 20 minutes every couple of hours to make it look like someone is home, a countdown timer of 1, 4, 8 hours, and finally a fan reverse button. The fan is made with high-quality materials and is well-constructed. The fan blades are metal and painted to resemble wood with a protective rubber tip on the end of each blade. The installation was one of the easiest ceiling fan installs I have done over the years. Although there is a blade balancing kit included with the product, I did not use it as the fan was perfectly balanced right out of the box. The amount of air this fan is capable of moving is perfect for larger rooms and with the 6-speeds there is a setting perfect for any room. The light is a warm white light at 3000K and bright. As you can see in the pictures, I don’t have it installed in our family room (it’s actually installed in a small bedroom as a “bench test”) as I need to purchase a 2-foot downrod for the family room install. This brings me to the only suggested change I would make on this product and that is to make the electrical wires long enough to accommodate a downrod of more than the included 6-inch one – although additional wire length can be easily spliced in it would be nice not to have to. Overall, I am very happy with this product and would highly recommend it.
