The fan is great, low speed moves enough air that it is great to sleep with above us and not have the dry throat feeling in the morning. The medium setting is great to vent the whole room and create quite the wind and high speed is almost ridiculous with the level of air it moves. Having the six blades moves air very smoothly and is almost silent on low and medium. The light is bright but not obnoxious and the finish is on par with others in the price range. Overall a great fan for our needs.
