Being a woman, I was not sure if this fan would be tough to install. It was actually the easiest ceiling fan I have ever installed. I added a 12" down-rod and it runs flawlessly. The fan is quiet and puts out a great deal of light. The light is not dimming which is a disappointment, but not a deal breaker. The part that really upsets me is that I cannot connect to Alexa. The SIMPLEconnect® Wi-Fi app does not work. Hunter sent me an email to verify my account but it will not let me open the app. Very disappointing to pay extra for wifi and not be able to use it.
