Beautiful ceiling fan. Very quiet. You can only hear it on the highest speed and that is the sound of the air moving, not the motor. One issues with it, with only 3 blades, it seems smaller than the 52" 5 blade fan that it replaced. But that's my fault and not a fault of the fan. I may see about replacing the blades to the 60" because I think it is a simple matter of replacing the blades and not any hardware. It may have been a little simpler to install than previous fans I have installed.
