The blades are much darker than in the picture and the light has this very subtle but weird stroboscopic flicker to it.  The cover at the top is so much smaller than the motor housing that it looks a little silly.  It's more exaggerated in real life than in the picture.  If I had seen it in person I never would have bought it.
Installation was easy and the instructions were clear enough.  It's seems like the fan functions well but it isn't summer yet so I can't say for sure if it moves enough air or if it is too loud.  It may go down a star but it isn't going up.
