So good we bought it twice
We initially bought this fan 2 years ago for our lounge area and when we decided to replace the bedroom fan this was our choice again. It is stylish and gives enough light for reading and wasn't expensive. Easy to install as my husband installed it this time. It arrived within its scheduled time

Love this fan and looks great!
I purchased this fan a couple months ago and still love it! The modern look goes great in our kitchen and the installtion wasn't very difficult. The only thing that took getting used to is the lighting, it is dimmer than the light fixture we had there previously but I like that you can direct the light to where you want or need it. Overall, we are satisfied!

2nd one for a 2nd bedroom
I like this style for the bedrooms, not too big so it doesn't overpower the room, but circulates the air well.

Good Value
Fairly easy to install for someone who has installed many ceiling fans. Instructions lack detail and could be a problem for a novice.

Great fan
I have had this fan for about 6 or 7 years now. It was originally for my home office but has been turned into my sons room. Works great, looks good, modern. The lights give off enough light and you can position them to where ever you want them.

Product is great, stylish, modern look
All in all a great fan for the money. installation was easy. Changed the Halogen spots to LED's to save more energy. Now the light are realy cool and don't heat up and are even brighter and the power consumption is only 21 Watts compare to 105 Watts

Little but plucky!
I came across these reviews and was kind of surprised. I bought this fan several years ago and love it. I needed to buy two more and panicked when i couldn't find it at first. Incredibly powerful fan and nearly silent. I have it over the eat in dining area in my kitchen. Does an amazing job of circulating the air to the point I have to keep it on low so we don't get chilled. Seriously. While powerful, it is small. This is fine for my tiny 1940s saltbox house (that does have vaulted ceilings), but i imagine that for someone in a newer house with very high ceilings, it might be dwarfed, visually. As for lighting, folks keep saying it's too dim, but honestly, I love the directional lighting and find it too bright, to the point i've disabled two of the bulbs so my guests don't feel like they're in an interrogation room. This may be because a) I have a small house and b) the overhead light in my kitchen illuminates the eating space enough. I like softer lighting at night/evenings. Probably due to spending all day under icky fluorescents at work. Finally, the curved, three blade design just looks wicked cool.

Really Beautiful and Contemporary, but oh boy, lights are DIM
Really attractive and contemporary. Fan works great for our 12x12 kitchen but OH BOY - forget this fan if you need good light. It throws out directional only and dim at best. Our kitchen is like the black hole of Calcutta at night. We will move this to a small guest bedroom and put a nice big light in our kitchen instead.

    looks nice, but does not work effectively
    We recently bought a house with this fan installed, the lights are too directional, and leave areas of the room with little light, we have a vaulted ceiling (which could be part of the problem) but the fan's power does not give effective cooling.

      Great fan.
      The fan works great and the lights a fairly bright and adjustable to a lot of positions. Was not too hard to install if you have installed fans before but the directions provided were very poor and were hard to understand would be more challenging to someone doing it for the first time. The westinghouse remote (sold separately) fit right in and was easy to instal.

      A good fan for the money
      Pros: The 12 degree blade pitch moves air well, even on lowest speed. The three blades, compact motor, and sleek light fixture make this fan fairly unobtrusive in the living space. Easy to install. Cons: A weight kit is provided to balance any excess wobble, I've owned many fans that don't require this. The fan does not wobble excessively. The canopy base has extra holes & the down rod set screws do somewhat detract from the appearance.

      Simply fan-tastic
      We put this fan in our younger son's bedroom and he loves it! It's got great lines and provides a super breeze very quietly. The lights are just right for a bedroom. My husband thought the directions weren't the greatest, but still mananged to get it set up. Great fan for a great price!

      Nice Fan
      This fan looks great in my son's room. It does take two people to install it but installation was fairly easy. The only issue I have with this fan is the speed of the blades when it is on high. It seems to go as fast as a lawn mower blade.

        Looks good but is not great
        This fan looks good in our living room but installation was horrible. The instructions that come with this fan tell you to assemble everything once it is in the air, hanging above your head. This is absolutely stupid. If you buy this fan assemble the entire fan, lights and all, on the ground then hang it. This fan also wobbles a lot and makes a lot of noise compared to the other fans that we have in our house. The lights are extremely bright. I do not reccomend this fan due to its difficulty.
