Size was very important for me.
Mounted above our wood stove. Wireless remote is a huge plus. Nice and quiet, and does what it is supposed to. Dimable light is a nice feature also.

Very pleased but needed a few extra steps
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!!

Good fan, remote is hit or miss
I installed two of these ceiling fans, and I'm generally satisfied with them. I needed a fan that didn't drop too far down from my ceilings (which aren't very tall, about 8'), had more than one light fixture (given that so many fans today can't handle high-wattage lights), and also had a remote. These look nice, and they're a good value. Perhaps most importantly, they work well as fans. The instructions were clear, so that helped the installation along. I'd never installed a fan before, but this went fairly smoothly (though I'm sure it helped that I was replacing existing fans). The main thing that stops me from giving five stars is the remote. Sometimes I have to hold it quite close to the fan for it to work, and I don't have very large rooms. I'm not sure why that is the case - sometimes turning it on is very easy, but turning it off is more difficult. Or vice versa, it's a bit annoying. It also didn't come with a remote holder, so I got a 3D printed one elsewhere on Amazon.

Nice looking good for small room nice remote
Bought to replace a larger ceiling fan without remote in a 10x12 bedroom with 8 foot ceilings. The fan is contemporary and blends nicely into the white ceiling. On high the fan does a nice job of moving air. However, at the sides of the room I do not feel much airflow. Since this is over a bed the fan is perfect. If your room is larger you might want to choose a model with longer fan blades. The remote is nicely designed and includes a holder that fits over the current wall switch plate and still allows access to the existing wall switch. Dimmer function on light cycles between bright to dim, I would rather have a toggle (Lo -High) switch. There are three separate speed buttons 1 - 2 - 3 and 0 for Off Installation was about an hour. You need to have an existing ceiling box specified for a ceiling fan. The fan does not include the bolts to attach the fan mounting plate to the ceiling box (these are usually supplied with a ceiling fan mounting electrical box). The directions are complete but confusing. They include numbered steps with clear diagrams. However within each numbered steps are sub steps with text in rectangles which are not lettered such as 1A 1B 1C. Thus it is easy to miss a sub step that you must follow from left to right within the numbered section. If you have solid electrical power wires, such as Romex, you will want to strip additional insulation off of the fan wires which are copper stranded, before connecting or placing on the ceiling mount. Be careful one on the wires is an antenna for the remote. Installation requires that you also have to connect the remote receiver into the cap. Study the wiring instructions in advance. You hook the fan onto the ceiling plate to connect wires then raise fan to ceiling plate and attach screws. Each fan blade is attached with 3 separate screws. This was not easy. The fan blade has to be held against the attachment area within the fan base, that is black and angled. In order to line up the screws I had a friend shine a flashlight into the base of the fan so the light reflected through the screw holes from above. This made lining up the holes easier but the screws are flat head machine screws so you have to line everything up correctly. The fan is quiet on high and no fan blade noise. However, there is a faint motor hum. The motor is very quiet but I did notice the sound but very faint. I have another ceiling fan with a DC motor and it's silent. Overall, very happy with the fan. Hunter emblem is attached to side of fan housing. Did not see a way to remove it, but you can install fan ceiling mount base plate so emblem faces the direction you wish.

Excellent Hunter fan. Easy to install, good instructions, nice light, dimmable with 3 speeds.
I ordered this fan to replace one in a guest room with only one power run to the ceiling. The existing fan did not have a remote or a dimmable light. I was impressed with the quality and simplicity of this fan. It works well, is easy to install and very quiet. The remote is very simple and remembers the settings for the fan and light if you turn off the wall switch. Holding down the light button will dim and brighten the light. Unlike many fans on the market, the light kit is not LED string lights. It comes with two standard LED bulbs that you can replace. Hunter fans are know for their reliability and longevity. I have have several that haven't been turned off in over 20 years and still work perfectly. The installation instructions are clear, large type and well written. I was somewhat nervous about hanging the motor by the two small "ears" on the side of the housing, but they worked fine. However, I would be careful not to bump it much while you are doing the wiring. (I put some padding on the floor under it just in case!) I wanted to test the fan before installing the blades and light so I turned it on and it didn't work! I took it down and checked the wiring, but everything looked fine. After some more experimentation, I discovered that the fan will not work if the light kit is not plugged in! Duh! If you want to test, just plug the light kit in and let it hang to see if everything works. Highly recommend.

1 to 2 Second Delay
**EDIT on 6/22/2025: I downgraded from 3 Stars to 1. The remotes that came with these fans do NOT work well. I have to click the buttons multiple times to turn the lights on and off or to change the fan speed. Not sure how they get away with selling this garbage. The fan looks great, is quiet when running, and the light is bright. The reason I'm giving it a 3 star rating is because there is a one to two second delay when turning on the fan from the light switch. I have a single switch on my wall (no dimmer). To test the delay, I have the fan running and light on. I turn the fan off with the light switch. I wait until the fan blades completely stop. I then turn the light switch on and it takes about 1 to 2 seconds for the light to turn on and for the fan blades to start rotating. If I would have known this I probably would not have bought this fan. If it's dark out, I have to wait at the doorway one to two seconds to wait for the light to turn on before I can enter the room. It gets annoying. I called Hunter and they said there is no issue and it's normal for the delay. I told them other fans in the past that I've had turn on right away with the switch. They said they can't do anything about it. I said I can write a review and let people know about the delay and they can decide if they want to buy your fan. I've seen other reviews on sites like Home Depot where people report the delay.

Great product
Full disclosure I'm just about 83 and recently out of radiation therapy (stereotactic) It took me 5 days to put this up. 3 years ago maybe 3 hours. House was built in 1929. Originally knob and tube. Rewired in the 70s. No ground. No junction box just a 1/2 " NPT nipple anchored to ceiling joist, part needed was in the box. I kinda did a part every day. Finished in 5. Instructions were succinct and simple. All parts were well made and fit perfectly. Everything lined up. Do make sure the receiver is snugly placed in the housing. Some of the reviews about the fan direction were.. well it's not quantum physics. A quick turn of the globe and you're in. You only need do this twice a year. The remote is very intuitive and works perfectly. Use the supplied bulbs elsewhere they're 2500k. I need 5000k. The fan is dead quiet and required zero blade balancing. Complaints. This fan is a sub-assembly and for some reason only the Chinese can manufacture sub assemblies. Why can't we make this in the US? It's parts mostly automated and packed. I would gladly have paid more for a North American product All that said you won't be disappointed

Better than 43+ Other Fans, but Still a Few Flaws
I've had this fan up for over six years (from 2017), and it's still really awesome. I had a Hampton Bay fan up before this one, but the pull chain mechanism stopped working after two years (par for the course for Home Depot brands). Before I settled on this Hunter fan, I looked at 43 other models: 2 Craftmade, 8 Emerson, 2 Hardware House, 18 other Hunter, 6 Litex, 2 Minka-Aire, 3 Monte Carlo, and 2 Westinghouse; as well as a bunch of Hampton Bay and Harbor Breeze (Lowe's brand) fans. I compared the fans' diameters, heights from the ceiling, airflow/cubic feet per minute, number of blades, Amazon ratings, price, and light type and remote (if applicable). Admittedly, this fan is only a 44"-diameter fan and pushes 3,157 CFM--far less air than its rivals (which pushed an average of 4,692 CFM with an average 49" diameter blades). The only slower fans were the Hunter Low Profile III (#23866), Low Profile III Plus (#53075), and Low Profile IV (#51059). The highest CFM were the Emerson Midway (#CF955WW) at 6,085 CFM, the Emerson Sea Breeze (#CF654WW) at 6,492 CFM, and the Minka-Aire Ultra Max (#F588-SP-WH) which puts out an insane 7,077 CFM (and gets nothing but five stars on Amazon but doesn't have a light kit). HOWEVER, that said, THIS FAN still moves plenty of air in my ~130 sq. ft. bedroom. And when I need a slight breeze, it delivers. Sometimes I wish it could be even lower. This fan sits 12.4 inches from the ceiling to the bottom of the light. The tops of the blades are about 7" from the ceiling at their base (5.5" under my medallion) and 8" at their periphery. This is average for the other models I looked at: a generally-even spread from 7" from the ceiling. The Hunter Low Profile III (#23866) and the Emerson Snugger (#CF804WW / CF805WW) were the lowest-profile, and the Hunter Astoria (#53059) and Beacon Hill (#53081) were highest-profile. This fan won out over the others mostly because it has an included light kit with *dimmable LEDs* (on a standard Edison base, not a candelabra base) and a nice three-speed REMOTE—I didn't want to worry about compatible light kits/remotes after the fact. It's just so convenient to have the speeds I want at the push of a button (not a pullstring!), and to be able to dim the lights with the remote. However, with the LED lights I've installed, there's a slight high-pitched whining noise when the lights aren't at full brightness. (It's the only way I know they're at full brightness.) The fan is perfectly balanced too. Installation was easy enough—even with a ceiling medallion. I had to carve the backside of the medallion to fit around the top canopy and sandwich it around the fan as it was being assembled and hung. This required bending the 90° metal resting hooks down a little with pliers--the elbows still angled at a 90° but pointing 45° down toward the floor then curving backup toward the ceiling to make a V). Then I slid the fan+medallion onto the top canopy horizontally and secured the screws while a second man held up the fan. OK, so this fan is great … BUT it gets a star off because: *The instructions don't tell you to secure the fan directly to a fan-rated electrical box. This fan has a metal plate with rubber feet that rest on the ceiling, and the instructions imply you can secure the plate to the ceiling and the canopy to the plate alone. But I know better, and Hunter really should have specified how to use a fan box and/or a brace for first-timers. *The balancing kit included also has poor directions. There's not really a need for a balancing kit with 99.9% of installations, I reckon, since the fan has those rubber feet to avoid jiggle. But the instructions don't explain that there is a balancing kit or what it does. They don't tell you that the balancing kit is for light wobble, not blade wobble. And they don't explain thoroughly the many places to try the clip in the balancing kit or that the weighted stickers go above the blade (not its underside). A couple more sentences would go a long way for first-time D-I-Yers. *Some of the holes for the fan blade screws were poorly drilled--too much paint or too dull a bit at the factory or something. I nearly rounded out some screws securing the fan blades. Luckily they included an extra screw, which helped; and I used another screw I had (same width and threading but longer) to widen the pilot hole first. But that could be disastrous for other customers. *The included LED bulbs are 800 lumens and 3,000K color temperate, which is a very blue light. The bulbs aren't very bright, and while the blueish light is great, it made other room in the house looks like a red-orange hell by comparison. Different bulbs fixed the problem, but I didn't want to have to hunt for bulbs to fix something I just bought. *The fan includes a notice that Polywell Manufacturing (Zhongshan Co.) made the ceiling blades with medium-density fiberboard (MDF), which complies to phase 2 of § 93120 ATCM Emissions. Researching what this means, I found info that MDF uses a type of formaldehyde that's a known carcinogen for nasopharyngeal cancers, and there was an Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) to reduce it. MDF is common, but not ideal. I'm not a ceiling fan manufacturer, so I don't know what else could be used. *The Safe Exit feature dims the lights gradually over 30 seconds and turns them off, which would be really cool when getting into bed or turning out the light when I'm done reading, etc. Except both bulbs flash their full brightness off and on three times first, which wakes me up when I'm trying to get to sleep. Why not just have the remote LED flash? The remote LED is pretty bright too, incidentally. I have two dot stickers over it. *The switch to reverse the fan's direction is under the glass cover. I like to have the fan blow air down onto me sometimes and suck air up to distribute it throughout the room better at other times. But I don't want to get a stool or chair and remove the glass several times a day for this. So I just leave it blowing downward.
