Fabulous piece and wonderful construction. This is a quality fan! It arrived in one box, the first arrived missing parts and the box was damaged. Wayfair sent me another one, so thankful for the manufacturer. The blades are REAL wood, so unique. Could be used indoor or outdoor. This ceiling fan is going to be installed soon, still waiting for a handyman to come do it for us but he said this one is not complicated and has good instructions.
