I am so excited about the look of this fan! It is perfect and very low profile for our low ceiling nursery room. The fan we replaced did not have a remote, so that will take a bit of getting used to, but not having the pull chain hanging down helps my husband from walking into it all the time AND it looks so much more appealing. I did take someone else's advice about having the Hunter logo face AWAY from the door and I am so happy I did, its a little large and in silver with black, it stands out a lot.
Ok so onto the install. This is fairly easy as long as you have a basic idea of how electrical wiring works. White to white, green to green, etc. PLEASE make sure you have the circuit breaker off so you don't electrocute yourself! It took my husband about 60-90 minutes to install the whole thing. The directions were simple and easy to follow.
We tried to test that the fan was working once that portion was installed. Keep in mind, the lights were not hooked up yet, so it was NOT a complete circuit. We found out, the unit does NOT function unless the entire thing is put together. We spent a solid 20 minutes up and down the stairs and adjusting wires. So avoid the hassle and install the whole thing and hope for the best! If you need to take parts off, it really isn't that hard.
My husband installed the fan blades without the washers and I was worried they would be extra noisy, but no issue. Once we got it all together, we discovered the remote was NOT paired like it was supposed to be. No big issue, the directions tell you exactly what to do, we followed them and it worked great.
Lastly, I thought the lights were supposed to be dimmable, however. they are not. I saw some other reviews suggest how to make them dimmable, I will try those steps and update. Our fan is on a dimmable dial instead of a switch, so I'm wondering if that is part of the problem.
Overall, this fan looks modern and updated. The install was fairly simple and was easily done with one person (I was very good at supervising). The various fan speeds are great, I can't imagine we would ever use the high function, it literally created WIND in the small room! The fan is quiet, even without washers to hold the blades in place and the light is bright but not annoyingly so. I would definitely recommend and I am planning on slowly replacing all the fans in our home with these!!
