I have loved fans since I was a kid and have purchased dozens of them.  I love everything about this fan. It is beautiful, well-made, perfectly designed, has a pleasing sound, and moves a LOT of air for the size. The blades have a bend in them that pushes out more air than you would expect. There are three speeds and the oscillating action is smooth and silent. I bought one with the copper finish and one with the stainless steel finish. I have a contemporary home but these fans would fit in well with almost any decor, even steampunk. Love, love, love this fan!
