It took my handyman 3 12 hours to exchange (2) ceiling fans. I guess that’s quite average It’s a huge upgrade from the prior style I had. I’m doing a lot of condo renovations and this definitely made a big difference. The reason I took off one star is because of the remote. Both fan remotes only function if the battery cover is slightly ajar. Basically, you have to slide it open 1 mm. If you push the cover completely closed, it somehow disables the batteries. I was about to call customer support when I figured it out on my own after realizing when the cover was off, both remotes functioned fine, then trial and error.
