Excellent for replacing old ceiling box that will not support a ceiling fan. Fairly easy to install and once installed it holds good

Great product and value. Looks as advertised. Easy to install and holds firmly to the supporting boards. We installed so we could put in our ceiling fan. Shipped quickly.

I was able to completely install a fan from the room. I pushed the wire into the attic and had it fully installed. I had the ceiling hole too close to a joist but even less than an inch away this was able to be used. It was a little low if I put the feet on the ceiling (the box was too low) so I had to loosen it and lift each end about 1/2 inch. This is very well made and no doubt strong enough.

I almost learned the hard way that the joist brace they put in most homes is cheap stamped steel and plastic electrical boxes. Eventually it failed ad thanfully the fan only fell partially out of the ceiling.Purchased this unit because I like my ceiling fan to be solid. The existing hole in the ceiling was big enough to get a pair of bolt cutters up to snap the old brace in half so I could completely remove it. Got the new brace up, ensuring the feet were positioned correctly. Once tightened completely, this mount is not going anywhere.The metal box and included screws were easy to attach once everything was centered. Reconnected the wires and finished remounting the fan. No drywall work needed which was very important to me since like everyone, I am on a budget. THere are some great DIY videos that make the install easy. Watch them several times before you start!

The items dimensions were exact which was very important for where I was using it. It was a bit difficult to keep both winged ends flush as you tightened it. The alignment for the box to box clamp was so precise it allowed for no wiggle room. I could get everything put together on a bench but I could not get all the screws started at the top of a 12 ft ladder. There was always 1 that I just couldn't start so I drilled the box holes a bit wider to give myself some wiggle room. It functions as expected and seems very sturdy once everything is squared up.

I just purchased two ceiling fans for my garage. These fans are replacing two original light fixtures.The light fixtures were not strong enough for a ceiling fan, so I purchased two of these kits.I just finished installing the first one.This fit fine for a 24" span. The original electrical box was nailed to the truss.I was suprised how closely I could get the new box to the truss plate. It is very adjustable.Also, one side is sitting on a truss plate and this holds on to the truss plate just fine.This support is strong, even at the 24" width. It is definitely going to work for the 52" fans that I have.The fan doesn't wobble or move a bit. It feels SOLID.This support was very easy to install. I've never done this before, and the hardest part was enlarging the hole in the drywall.I am very happy and I will buy this again the next time I install a ceiling fan.Hope this helps.
