Perfectly fine fan.  Nice remote for light and fan speed control.  It blows air around in our spare bedroom, but I shut off the breaker to it when my children are home just because I can. ( And if you've read any of my other reviews, you'll understand completely).  It fits in with the Shabby Elegance at the beach look. ( I have no idea what that even means but I truly think it'll resonate with those of you who are on the fence about this one. )  Just buy it. It's not ugly.  'nuff said!~
