LOVE this fan! Hubby and I installed it in less than 2 hours. The instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. Our living room ceiling is only 8 ft and the original fan was 26"! This new fan gave us back some much needed head space (it is about 17") and matches our decor better. The included bulbs are dimmable which was a welcome surprise as I did not recall reading that in the description. There are only 2 bulbs so it isn't as bright in the room as before (we had 3 bulbs that were basically exposed aside from the frosted open bottom bulb covers -totally made that up but you know what I mean). 

This totally makes us want to change out fans in other rooms of the house!
