Awesome looking modern fan!! Assembly and installation was pretty straight forward, put it together as per the instructions then lift it up and attach the wires with the supplied wire nuts, there are @ 6 sets of wires to be attached but they are all color coded. As other reviewers have stated it does beep when you turn the wall switch on but it's not annoying. The blades are plastic but they match the brushed nickle type finish of the body perfectly so it does look like all metal.
