Sleek & Attractive & Oh So Quiet!

Having found and purchased the Minka Aire Sabot ceiling fan – which is not only sleek, attractive and well made, but incredibly quiet as well – I can finally stop searching for the perfect ceiling fan for our master bedroom and spending money on ceiling fans that haven't completely met our expectations after use... This is the third 52" ceiling fan that we installed in our master bedroom [14'X17' with 12' tall ceiling], because the two previous fans of different brands, although beautifully modern as well, made clicking sounds which prevented me from using them during the night... I usually set the Minka Aire Sabot ceiling fan at 3 and sleep comfortably without any issues! On occasion, during a late Texas afternoon, I upgrade the speed to 4 which allows me to watch the television without distraction... The air flow generated at speeds 5-6 is audible and quite strong, but that is expected at such speeds. I haven't operated the fan at the top speeds, except to experiment with the product, but it is nice to have available just in case that amount of air flow is needed... Not only were the instructions for this ceiling fan easy to follow, but my husband was thrilled to learn while assembling it that he did not have to conduct wiring and installation of the remote receiver as it is already built into the fan, which saved him approximately 20 minutes... The remote control is dimmable, so if you continue to press on the light button without letting go, you can achieve lighting that is quite bright at its maximum level... Once set, it will maintain the lighting level chosen, so that you don't have to adjust to the remote control each time you turn the light on! An added bonus is that the seasonal option to change the direction of the fan blades is located on the remote control – how wonderfully convenient! If you purchase the Minka Aire Sabot ceiling fan, I'm sure you will be as pleased with it as my husband and I are with ours! Pros: Quiet, Circulates Air Well, Works in Both Directions, Easy to install, Range of Speeds, Attractive Best Uses: White Noise as Sleep Aid at Higher Settings, Air Circulation, Larger Rooms, Alternative to AC

Pretty Fan with build issues

I bought this fan because I liked the look of it and my local Lamps Plus recommended it highly. I paid to have it installed. After installation, the lamp made clicking noises and shook on any speed over 3 of 6. My electrician tried balancing the blades, but that wasn’t the issue. He opined that there was something wrong with the build of the fan. I called both Minka and Lamps Plus and was told to run the fan for at least a week. I ran it continuously for about two weeks and nothing improved. I returned the fan to Lamps Plus with the intention of buying a Casablanca fan instead. The sales rep insisted that Minka was a better company and ultimately I bought the same Minka fan figuring anyone can make a lemon. Fan 2: I decided to install this one my self. It went together easily until I tried to hang a fan. It turned out that the fan hanger had excess metal left after casting that kept the fan from hanging. I had to take this down and , file off the excess metal to proceed. I completed the installation, but the fan didn’t power up. I disassembled the fan, and after a fair amount of trouble shooting, it turned out that the snap together wire connector was defective. I repaired this and fan now works fine. But, I ordered 2 fans and both had manufacturing defects. I ended up paying for a fan install that I had to uninstall to return. I spent at least an extra hour installing the second fan. I also had to drive to the Lamps Plus store twice. So, I am out $250 for install and 4-5 hours of my time because of manufacturing defects.

Great modern look and quiet operation

Beautiful noiseless fan. I got tired of those cheap products so I splurged on this product for my bedroom. It is very modern and sleek.
