VERY and FUNCTIONAL fan.  A little smaller than its predecessor but just as efficient as the larger one.  Remote comes in handy since I am a short person and would have to get on tiptoes to reach the chain to change the speed of the previous one.  The only thing I miss is the capability of dimming the lights.  I installed the bulbs recommended but I may try fewer watts bulb if I really can't live with these brighter bulbs.  Would definitely recommend this item.
