I have 3 of these fans. The best ceiling fan I ever used! Easy to install. But, some points for you. It can’t be on a dimmer switch, it has its own remote with dimmer. The reverse direction will not work if the wall on / off switch is a dimmer.
Yes the blades are plastic, but you can’t tell. This style fan goes with mod / contemporary and antique rooms.
very quiet fan, no rocking, I am extremely happy with this fan

I bought this fan/light combo almost 3 years ago and have been very happy with it. It still is very quiet and has very little friction (blades spin long after power is off), so I know it’s not using very much electricity to run it. I have the 44″ version for a smallish living room and it works great. In fact, I’m using it right now to push the heat from the heater off the ceiling. If you have a bigger room, I suggest the larger version (52″, I think).
The dimmer system if fairly simple and works well. The light is not extremely powerful, but it does kick out enough light for basic use. I would recommend at least one other light source. In my living room, it works really well with 4 ceiling cans.
There are 3 fan settings, which are logical and all useful depending on what you’re looking for.
However, the best thing about this fan is that it hangs only 10″ from the ceiling. I have regular 8′ ceilings, and my very tall friend is in no danger of getting whacked, even on his toes. Not only is this functional, but it looks better, in my opinion. It’s low profile, simple, and fairly elegant. It’s not like so many fans that hang out in space like some giant contraption.
Highly recommended.

In reviewing this product, please note that it was my belief that I had researched such thoroughly. Last night it was installed, and although I’m pleased, my only regret is with the blades. Having had a previous bronze ceiling fan with wood blades, I was taken back by the “so called oil-rubbed bronze blades”. They were plastic – who would desire plastic blades in your living room. As a result, I will be contacting customer service to understand why this product was misrepresented. Would I make a recommendation of this fan to others? Yes, only in the presumption that the blades are replaced.

Really nice product, has a hook to help hold it when installing which was handy for a one person installation. Wiring not too complicated. Since it has a remote, you have to use a single switch, rather than double as many houses today are wired. Looks as good as the picture. The only small negative is the 100 w halogen candelabra bulb limit the output to ( you must pay $$ for a special order of the higher wattage bulb and no CFCs are available at that level of light output for candleabra). So, this fan needs to be in a relatively smaller room. Remote is simple and easy to use
