If it weren’t such a trek to return this fan (I live very rurally), I would return it. The plastic wood-looking fan blades just look cheap and fake. The fan beeps when the light/ fan are turned off and on. It’s not a gentle, lovely noise. And finally, you must be standing nearly directly under the fan to feel air movement. I bought this fan for a 10x10 room and it does little to circulate the air even in such a small space. Honestly, this fan might be worth $100. Spend your money on something that is better quality.
