Hunter 42 inch Indoor Ceiling Fan with LED Lights - Bronze Ceiling Fan with Pull Chain, For Bedroom, Living Room, or Kitchen, Low Profile Mount, No Remote, 5 Blades - Builder 51091, New Bronze

My niece stuck a broom into the 42-in fan destroying one of the blade-holders so we looked for an alternative (however the bearings were going-out). It seemed more-economical and easier to replace the fan than try to access the bearings and replace the blade-holder. This fan wasn’t the cheapest, but it looked elegant and well-made and had a good sell-price. For me it was a 4-hr job standing on the bed and a step-stool and tightening all the parts as well as connecting the wire-nuts to the existing wire. What makes it take so long is trying to get the right angle on the screws when driving them in above your head. I had to take short-breaks from muscle-fatigue. However, I was proud with the results and the high-setting feels like a heavenly-breeze. I still feel a since of pride from installing the fan when I pass that room and sometimes I will lay on the bed in the dark and appreciate the cool, quiet, relaxing-breeze.

I have been a fan of hunter ceiling fans , its been a while and I am happy to see they haven't changed. The instructions were written properly and understandable, hard to find that these days. It went up easy enough, and on my first attempt everything works and the fan blades are quiet and balanced. Thank you Hunter Fans.

I have had it for quite a long time now and waited for quite a long time to post a review because ceiling fans can often get "wonky" after they're installed for a while. I have had absolutely no problem with mine. I changed out the globes and the pulls, as you can see, and I use GE Color Changing Dimmable remote controlled light bulbs in it. The blades are very easy to clean with a damp cloth and the fan is very pleasant to look at and not at all intrusive in a small kitchen. It is extremely quiet, as you can hear (it actually makes no sound at all... the sound that you hear is coming from the furnace cold air return that I'm standing right next to by the kitchen). I am very pleased with my purchase.

Quality is OK, but I have a few comments for folks who have not been 'round the Horn with installs like this 1) I would have made the WARNING window about turning off the power its own section 2) "Wiring the Fan" - Shows "Grounded" connect to "White". Both wires should be labeled "White/Neutral" Below that, "Ungrounded" should be labeled "Black/Hot". 3) "Installing the Motor Housing" - Should have something about tucking the wiring up into the hanger; otherwise, it could potentially become frayed by the spinning motor housing and cause a short/fire. 4) "Installing the Blades" - Just remember which color you want facing down in the room :) 5) I've seen reviews that claim this takes about 15 minutes to install. Riiiight! Count on 2 - 2-1/2 hours from walking in the room, through gathering tools, taking out parts, assembly, and clean up. I also had to hunt around for light switch chain and the like, as I'm only 6' tall and getting to the short chains over the table is challenge.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Bought 6 of these and installed them in one day with Help. My house is VERY old By US standards (we're talking WWII Old)and has chicken wire and plaster walls with no central AC ducts. So when you have Late 1940's early 1950's Wiring and NO Central air Fans are KEY! These little buggers are moving Air around like a champ. 4 between the Living room and one in the Kitchen and one in both bedrooms. With the brand new Window AC unit I put in in May this is the coolest the house has been in July since the cold snap where my grandma told tales of it Snowing back in the 1920's. May she rest in peace. Ease of installation: I did hire a little Pro help to get them installed. But I was right there assembling the fan as the Electrician hooked up the mounts and made sure the wiring was solid

This fan was to replace an old fan, and I'm so glad we chose this one. First, I love the look of the nickel finish and the lights. But it really excels in the quiet motor sending just enough air to be comfortable. This fan is mounted right above our bed, and I never could get the old one to circulate the air without being blown on too much. Hunter has designed it to really have useful fan speeds, so that if you need it to blow, it does, but if you just want to circulate the air gently, it does it well. We put LED bulbs in it, and we have plenty of light. This fan has been running just about nonstop since we had it installed. Very satisfied! Will reverse the fan in the wnter to circulate the heat.

Great

I was super nervous because I had never installed a ceiling fan before. The old one had a tiny little halogen bulb that was impossible to replace. I was sold on this one because of the ease of changing the light bulbs. Still, I wasn't too optimistic about my installation abilities. But I'm so happy with how it turned out! The directions are super easy to understand and follow! I would definitely recommend a 2nd pair of hands since you have to work above your head. But my 16 year old daughter and I had it up in an hour. It runs great, quiet enough to run through thr night, and gives off plenty of light. Great purchase!

Me decepciono ya que es el segundo que compro pero este último me resulta un sonido al estar funcionando … no me lo esperaba por ser una marca conocida y de antigüedad

Great product, very solid build and quality. There's just something about Hunter fans - quiet and classy. The bulbs that come with purchase are pretty pathetic though, lasting only a couple of weeks before burning out. Also, it really is low profile - I'm 6'4 and there's plenty of space to walk under with our 8 ft ceilings.

This fan is so quiet and our electrian indicated that Hunter is the best brand to buy and I have to agree with him

All Hunter fans are excellent. If you've ever installed a fan previously, you'll know that this will take about 20-40 minutes to do. If you've never done one before, double the time. That said, the instructions are straightforward and easy to follow. As for the quality, it truly is whisper quiet and is an excellent addition to our home.

This is a really good product and a great value. The fans work great and you can feel the breeze created from them. The entire thing is whisper quiet. The only improvement I could suggest is the length of the chains are shirt and I need to stand on a stool to reach them.
