I couldn’t love this more. Bought it to replace a low hanging chandelier I kept hitting my head on. This ceiling fan has the option to use the drop bar or to mount it closer to the ceiling, which we chose to do. We live in a hot climate, and the addition of a ceiling fan to our dining room is most welcome. It’s very pretty and easy to install. Make sure to use the pamphlet directions, not the easy setup sheet, which seems to refer to a different model.
