I am a bit of an expert on this fan I have 6 of them in my house. The fan looks great, easy to install and quiet for the first 1-2 years. After then you get a little annoying rattle that happens (3 of my 6 fans have it). Happens at different intervals usually 10-30 seconds apart. Sounds like when you squeeze a coke can and it makes that "clink" sound. Happens at all speeds, louder at high speed. All my fans have heavy duty fan mounting box, and balance by 2 separate electricians.

Even that noise, I can somewhat live with because it's light but poor warrantee support is unforgivable on a my fan that is $329 and I bought 6! Fan in my master bedroom went completely haywire. Low speed barely moves, MIDDLE speed now moves at High speed or completely stops, HIGH speed button makes the fan completely stop. I called Minka and told them the fan is 2 years old, before I even got to the problem they told me, if it's electronics we don't cover it. WTF I didn't even state my problem yet. When I did tell them they said yep sounds like electronics. We will check it out but I'm responsible for sending the unit without blades to them, if it's electronics I have to pay to send it back to me, not fixed. The office is near me I asked if I could bring it in, Nope mail only. No matter what the warrantee problem, Minka will say it is the electronics, not the motor.

Find another manufacturer who stands behind there product.

This fan is perfect in my very small reading/tv room. It is a much better product than the Casablanca (installed in 4/08 & will soon be replaced by a Minka) in the master bedroom. The blades reverse with the remote- and the light is adequate combined with table/floor lamps. There wasn't an existing ceiling fixture so it was installed by a licensed electrician/contracter.

Pros: Quiet, Works in Both Directions, Circulates Air Well, Range of Speeds

Best Uses: Decorative, Alternative to AC, Air Circulation, Smaller Rooms

Great fan. We needed a flush mount for our sons room because he has really high bunk beds. This fan was the perfect fit and looks great. It is a flush mount so when you climb up on the top bunk you won't hit your head! Very quiet. The only question is...why did our son get the best fan in the house? :)

I am very pleased with this purchase, which arrived in good time and was a breeze to install. The pictures and other reviews played a large role in my selection, and I was not dissapointed. My main goals were a hugger style that worked with standard ceilings, style that suited my decor, and quietness of unit. It's definitely quiet, and I am glad I spent the extra money. A couple things to note are that the blades are taupe, which looks a bit odd when you first open the box, but it looks great once up and running. Also, the light isn't bright enought to use without other light sources in the room, which I anticipated based on other reviews and the wattage.

Pros: Quiet, Remote Control, Circulates Air Well, Easy to install

Insatlled in small 3-season room.

Pros: Works in Both Directions, Easy to install, Attractive, Quiet, Good looking

Best Uses: Decorative, Smaller Rooms

Quality fan. I whimped out and had a pro install it as I was replacing can lights with these. Couldn't be happier. With fans you definitely get what you pay for.

Pros: Quiet, Works in Both Directions, Circulates Air Well, Range of Speeds

Got rid of the pedestal fan. Air circulation is better.

Pros: Quiet, Works in Both Directions, Circulates Air Well, Perfect size

Best Uses: Decorative, Air Circulation, Smaller Rooms

Very nice fan. Sturdy, operates well and looks nice. My only complaint is that on the light's brightest setting, the light still isn't very bright. It can't be the sole light in a room if you want the entire room to be well lit. The standard remote in lieu of pull chains is a great bonus.

Pros: Range of Speeds, Works in Both Directions, Quiet, Circulates Air Well

Cons: Light not bright

Best Uses: Air Circulation, Decorative

The fan will auto-reverse while running in either direction. Way cool!

Pros: Range of Speeds, Circulates Air Well, Works in Both Directions

Great fan for our low ceiling bedroom. Overall design does not over-power the room. The remote function sure comes in handy.

Very cool fan! I love the remote, the contractor who installed it loved it and said it was the easiest fan he has ever installed, I am going to buy more of them for my other rooms!

Pros: Easy To Assemble, Attractive Design

It really is an awesome ceiling fan. No wobbling, squeaking, or chain tapping. It holds solidly to the ceiling and with the remote there is no chain. The only sound you hear is the blades slicing through the air when the fan is on high.

We just installed three of these in our upstairs bedrooms. They are extremely quiet and they look nice. Install was easy once you have the correct support for the light box.

I installed the battery into the transmitter, and it would not work the fan or light, and I was certain either the battery was bad or it was the transmitter. I went to buy a new battery and discovered there was a plastic covering over the battery, which had to be removed. I reinstalled the same battery, and it worked fine.

Pros: Artistic Design, Easy To Clean, Convenient On/Off

Cons: Low Wattage, Limited Illumination

The electricians that installed asked where they could buy one!

I bought this fan a couple of years ago. I love the simple lines and clean look. The fan was easy to install, is very quiet, DOES NOT WOBBLE !, and moves air well. We love the variable speeds and the remote is awesome! On the pricier side but a great fan. It has done a nice job cooling me in the tropical heat where I was living without AC. We recently moved, and I took the fan with me! I would definitely buy another Minka Air fan. Mine was in an open floor plan living and dining room (just 1 fan).

Pros: Attractive, Range of Speeds, Quiet, Circulates Air Well, Easy to install

Best Uses: Larger Rooms, Decorative

Great-looking fan that adds a subtle, tasteful accent to the room. Works extremely well to provide air circulation to a smaller room with low-ceilings. Very quiet, which is also a plus, as we use it in the bedroom.

Pros: Circulates Air Well, Range of Speeds, Works in Both Directions, Quiet

Best Uses: Smaller Rooms, Air Circulation

I had this fan installed in a small bedroom. It is very quiet except on the high speed, but the slight noise is tolerable. It looks fine, but I am not in love with it. I don't think there are many options available in smaller, hugger fans. I am planning on adding another fan like this to another bedroom. I went to the Lamps Plus store in Fresno to get the second one quickly but they did not have it or the other lamps I had selected on the website. The other lamps I wanted were not even displayed. Not sure of the purpose of having a store without the products available. Certainly was a big waste of my time.
