I really like the "look" of this ceiling fan.  I bought this for my husband's traditional office that has a lot of bookcases and heavy furniture.  This fan compliments the furniture he had and the fan works great for a small room.  I bought a second fan (same one) for my game room because I like the look of it and thought it would look great in there too, but it doesn't work as well in that room because it is a very large room.  The fan is not that big and the light is not bright enough for a large room (20 x 16).  If I only have the fan light on in that room, it is very dim and you need more lights.  It's fine for me because I had lamps in the room anyways.  But if you're looking for a ceiling fan with light to light-up the whole room, this might not work unless your room is small and you don't like it that bright or you have other lamps.  If you do, then this fan is great, it's good quality (not Hunter Fan quality - but it's still good) and looks very handsome.
