I installed three of these fans about 2 months ago. VERY quiet and easy/quick to install. Stylish and a great value for the money.NOTE: these fans work off a remote BUT you can wire directly and work the fan/light off separate wall switches (if you have separate switch legs from the wall box to the ceiling box) instead. Just do not wire the transmitter unit into the junction box. ie leave it out entirely.

I really like this fan. It is well made and out-of-the box was balanced, no vibration at all. The LED light is plenty bright enough to light up a good size room. The remote control works really well. Easy to dim the light and adjust the fan speed. It looks great as well. Very satisfied.

This ceiling fan is stylish and looks great in our family room. It is very easy to install and took less than an hour with one person (if I didn't have to troubleshoot the RF receiver installation it would have been much quicker). I installed the short rod because it is located in front of a TV and the bottom of the light easily clears the view at 11.5 inches from the ceiling. I did not put on the motor cover so I could have access to the reversal switch and it doesn't look that bad after removing the unsightly stickers - you might notice it right away because your attention is drawn to it right after installation but I don't give it much thought any more. The fan is so quiet you can barely tell it's on when on low or medium and with high the only sound is the air movement. The light is very bright and although it would be nice if it dimmed down a little more, I didn't get it as a nightlight so it's not a big deal for me. It would be nice if you could change the light bulbs because everyone has different preferences for light but I like the bright LED.Some tips on installation:1. Put the whole fan together first2. The RF receiver fits in the hanging bracket with a tight fit and will be difficult to maneuver if you attach the wires before putting it in place. I recommend putting the RF receiver in the bracket first, then put the fan in the bracket, and then attach all of the wires.3. I installed the switch (sold separately) and the remote and I'm glad I did. I hung the remote on the opposite side of the room so it allows us to control it from both sides.

These fans look great and move a lot of air quietly. After a lot of searching around this was one of very few fans with this modern look that ALSO was dimable via remote. I did find other similar products but for some reason those were still using expensive & inefficient halogen bulbs :( ?The fans do have a couple of design issues. The LED bulb is proprietary so replacements will be a hassle and will be expensive orders from the manufacturer. Luckily LEDs should outlast the fan itself (20-30 yrs) but a faulty bulb that doesn't die of natural causes will be a headache to replace. I know how to solder, but the bulb unit is totally sealed up so self repairs seem unlikely.The other design issue is absolutely infuriating.... ARE YOU LISTENING MINKA AIRE !!!!The LED is remote dimable and my this was my main reason for buying this fan. The remote has TWO buttons for controlling the lamp. A sane person would think that one button would increase brightness while the other button would decrease brightness. Not in Minka Aires' world ! Both buttons do exactly the same thing. Hold it down and the lamp cycles through full brightness and back down to least bright. You have to stop when you reach your desired brightness. If you miss it then you have to go through the whole cycle again and hope you get it next time. I checked the instructions and, yes, this is how they designed it to function. There's TWO buttons on the remote and I'd like to suggest these could be used individually, one for up? and the other for down?. Sounds crazy I know, but then I graduated high school unlike the designer at Minka Aire.I have no idea why they turned the dimmer function into a game of skill !!Spoils an otherwise great design !!Some others have mentioned that you can "get a bad unit" and I did experience this. I bought two and one had to be exchanged. It had two faults. This wasn't a big issue to me but I describe it here in case my trouble shooting steps are useful to others.The first fault was a slight ticking with every full revolution of the fan. I supposed that this was something catching inside, since electric motors have brushes that are supposed to rub against the rotor, I let it run-in for 24hrs. The noise DID disappear and was probably just a carbon brush bedding itself in properly. I suggest people try this if they have a similar issue.The second fault, for the same unit, was that the remote receiver unit was finicky. The fan would always respond but the light wouldn't always. Here's what I tried before sending it back. Tested with the other remote from 2nd fan --> both remotes were fine. Repeated the sync procedure to "pair" the remote --> would respond well but then start acting up again within 20-30 mins. Finally I tried 2-3 different pairing frequencies, which you can set inside the remote --> no difference.The replacement unit was perfectly fine, just like the other one received in the first delivery.

This has been installed for about a week now and it is great. This is one of the quietest fans in the house, I hope it does not get noisy like my other Hunter fans have over the years. The LED light is dim-able on this and on the bright setting it is very bright. The fan is very low profile with nothing hanging too low to hit my head on in the bedroom. The fan is fast and moves a lot of air which is very nice in the Texas summers. Some people have mentioned that you cannot use the top housing for the fan with the short carrier post, but that is not true, the top housing fit just fine. This fan looks great as runs awesome. The install was very easy and the remote functions are sweet.
