This fan looks nice and operates at a reasonable noise level, nothing offensive. My issue is with the remote. There are no hardwired controls for the fan, it relies solely on the remote. This wouldnt be the end of the world, however, the remote command to turn on the light is painfully slow. The light takes 3 full seconds to turn on, in that time you at stuck wondering if the click worked, if you forgot to switch the power on or if the remote isnt working any longer. The remote is fairly cheap feeling plastic and Im nervous it will break one day when I drop it, leaving me control-less over the fanlight.
