Product review (1 stars): VERY DISAPPOINTED
These blade arms were not the same size as the ones they were replacing. These are about a half inch narrower than my old ones. I had to drill new holes in all of my blades. The wood busted through on several of the blades, leaving unsightly marks and notches which I disguised by using a brown colored pencil. Had the wood been a lighter color, it would not have been so easily disguised. Also, I had read in previous reviews that when new holes were drilled for these arms, the existing holes were covered by the arms. This was NOT so in my case. Using the existing middle hole, this LEAVES NEARLY ALL OF THE EXISTING HOLES EXPOSED! The angles of the blade arms are also MUCH different. These arms put my blades much closer to the ceiling, and they are almost flat, NOT AT A GOOD ANGLE FOR DOWNWARD AIR FLOW, much less reverse. I am VERY DISAPPOINTED. Also, the antique brass finish did not match mine. My fans are about 30 years old, and they all have 3 to 4 lights on them. At least the new arms did not interfere with lights.
