 Very Inefficient Fan April 27, 2010

I bought and installed one of these in my office. I was disappointed with the fan's performance, but I've made an easy modification that improved its performance.
First, it should be noted that with only an eight foot ceiling in here I chose to install it in the "hugger" configuration where it mounts directly to the ceiling. My experience may explain why some reviewers said that they got good airflow, while others said that it didn't do much of anything. With very limited spacing above the blades there isn't much room for them to pull from, and this thing just kind of stirs up the air in the room a bit. Standing directly below it while it is running at full blast you'll find very little air flow in either fan direction.
Using the included standoff would probably help, but I still have a relatively low ceiling in here, and don't want to risk injuring any tall friends.
So, I did some reading on ceiling fans, and a high number of blades also has a negative effect on a ceiling fan's capability. The blades interfere with eachother, so that they don't get as much "bite" on the air. Consider what would happen with 10 or 30 blades--the fan begins to resemble a solid disk that wouldn't move air at all. Because it's possible to keep the fan balanced while using only three blades, I decided to try this tonight, and was pleasantly surprised. With only three blades installed (removing every other blade), the fan now produces a nice, steady breeze. I think I'll keep it installed, now that it is working much better.
This makes it a pretty good fan for a low price. Enough whining about the little bulbs, as you can find them at your local hardware store.
 Good price, average performance. April 14, 2010

I purchased two of these fans for installation in two rooms of an addition. They went together with no problems but the process is a little awkward. The instructions are not good, but I muddled through. Putting the motor assembly upside down in the foam shipping material held it steady while adding the fan arms and blades.
The single bulb lighting is a little dim for my tastes, it does not light up the 12 by 10 rooms to comfortable levels. If you planned on an expensive dimmer switch for the light, forget it.
The fan is well balanced but noisy at high speeds. Low and medium speeds are OK. I added a variable speed switch and it slowed all speeds down somewhat and, so, quieted the high speed.
Great little fan! December 31, 2009

We purchased three-one for each bedroom. They were very easy to install and work great. Fantastic fan and quick shipping. Would recommend this fan to anyone looking for an efficient ceiling fan for a small room!
 Great Fan! November 11, 2009

Don't let the 30" size fool you. This fan moves a lot of air for it's small size. I purchased this fan to accommodate a vaulted ceiling in a 13' x 13' room with 9' ceiling. The hardware to mount the blades to the motor is in the housing accessible throught the light fixture.
Little ceiling fan September 11, 2009

Love, love, love this little fan!! Wish I had bought it years ago. We placed it in our upstairs hallway for extra air circulation. Don't think we have turned it off since we put it up.
Looks wonderful, no problems at all.
