This is a beautiful ceiling fan. My husband installed it on his day off and he said it was a pretty straight forward installation. It took about one hour from beginning to end with the help of his friend. 

   I absolutely love that I can reverse the blades to give the fan a whole new look. I am currently using the white side for the summer months. It gives the room a cooler feel and I will change them over to the grey in the fall.

   The fan is large. I am using it in my living room on a flat ceiling. It's quiet, even on the highest setting. You know that it's on, but it's not so loud to interrupt anything. With 6 blades it moves the air in the room nicely. The remote control, with batteries included, is easy to use and wall mountable, which I adore since my family is known for losing remotes. I also like that I can adjust the brightness.
