Replaced a smaller fan in my sont bedroom. This fam is flush mount which I like.. it was so easy to assemble and even  easier to install. Thus fan is ctually pretty big creates a lot of air flow which is what I was hoping for. It makes no noise while running but if it does happen to start, there is an included balance kit that should take care of that easily. I love the decorative bulb that came in the box but it's not very bright so you may want to upgrade to something brighter. This fan is extremely pretty, I chose to use the light colored wood side of the blades and they look great with the chrome glass and white finish of the rest of the fan, very clean, very classy.
