The gray-brown blades are a good match with my flooring. Item arrived quickly and all parts were there.  I was disappointed that it's not a flush mount fan and I believe the description was a bit ambiguous about that but I'll have to go back and re-read.  Thought about sending it back for that reason, but my husband had already removed the old fan and had this one out of the box and he was not happy.  So, kept it and the peace!
