Awesome, huge fan! The lowest setting on the fan is fast.... there are 8 speed settings and we haven't gone above 3 because it's so fast. I think our living room would take flight if we went up to 8. The fan also beeps with every click of the remote which is handy so you know it received the command but the beep noise is kind of annoying (wish we could silence it). Other than that it's a great fan - we love that the remote has a dimmer option for the light and also has a reverse direction button (no climbing on a ladder to switch direction for the winter).
