If you’ve never put up a ceiling fan before, don’t expect the instructions to do you any favors. In our case, the wire colors we had were not matching up with the instructions, and the base unit needed to be finagled quite a bit to get the screw holes to match up. YouTube definitely was consulted for some incremental help. Definitely agree with the other reviewers feedback about the light not being very bright, but those can be easily changed out. All in all, it looks nice and is quiet, but the installation took far longer and was more frustrating than anticipated.
