Builder, Indoor, Ceiling Fan, with LED Lights, 42 inch, Snow White

What I like. No out of balance shake at all! Completely quiet motor at all speeds. Install was super easy for 1 person. The ceiling mounting bracket installs first and it is designed to hold the motor in place with openings to finish the wiring. I've done other fans that have a cable to dangle the motor while connecting the wiring then stuff all the wires into the box while trying to screw the motor to ceiling. Takes a helper for that style. It came with standard base LED light bulbs which I really like. Not the candle type with tiny base. The light are bright and are a better than the old replaced model with 4 bulbs vs 3 bulbs now. I have separate switches for lights and fan. The bulbs dim to any level I choose. The fan switch is either on or off. I installed the fan pull chain to change fan speeds when needed. I did not install the long chain for the light because the wall switch will do that. One install tip. The main celling bracket will control which direction the Hunter logo on the fan will face. Had I know that I would have turned it 90 degrees so it would have faced the entrance to the room. Not a real big deal because the fan looks so good. The hardest part was the pre install of the rubber grommets into the fan blades. That took time and forcing them would crack the rubber. That didn't seem to matter once it was screwed to the arm but its something to be aware of. There is an extra grommet and screws should you loose or damage one. Not hard, just time consuming. I recommend this fan!

Arrived quicker than expected. Instructions were superb. Packaging was excellent and all small parts were logically separated according to assembly stages. Overall quality and design are impressive, especially at this price point. First I installed a fan-rated junction box from Home Depot for a safe mounting point to start with (you don’t want to take any shortcuts with a ceiling fan). Then, I took my time installing it to ensure quality results. Had the usual re-reads of the instructions at certain points where it seemed a little tricky (to be expected), but nothing an experienced DIY’er can’t cope with, and the documentation was accurate and got me through those areas. When I threw the switch for the first time I got some wobble on the high setting, but again took my time with the supplied balancing kit to ferret out where the stick-on weights would go, and now there is absolutely no wobble at all at any speed. The fan is super quiet and smooth — such a huge upgrade over the very good freestanding fans we’ve been used to. On the high-speed setting we can hear the air moving a bit, because it’s moving a substantial amount of air, but it is still very quiet. However, on the middle-speed setting it is dead quiet, while still moving an impressive amount of air. This is a bedroom install, so I doubt we’ll go past the middle speed setting, which is absolutely perfect. On an added note, the fan blades were a pleasant surprise (white on one side and beech/maple wood print on the other). Thought the whole thing would be white, but opted for the wood print instead to accentuate the blades and break up the all-white look, and it went well with our Scandinavian furniture. The frosted light shades were a pleasant surprise, too. Not a bit gaudy, thankfully; the whole presentation would actually blend well with just about any decor — not overly modern, but also not overly ornate. Now I’m thinking of repeating this process for our two other bedrooms (offices), which get a lot of direct sun in the afternoon. Definitely opting for this exact same model. Just an excellent product for anyone who is up for installing it correctly. Thank you, Hunter, for producing such a well thought out product at a reasonable price.

these fans are soooo quiet. Love them.. this is #5 for the house. Work Great, easy install, very quiet and move a lot of air. Love them.

This replaced a 5 year old Craftmade that started to make bearing noises. I'm hoping the Hunter lasts longer. I've got other Hunter brand fans that have been going strong for 20 years. We'll see...I spent a lot of time researching quiet fans since this one is in the bedroom. Almost got a DC fan, but AC fans last longer. A well made AC fan is just as quiet as a DC fan. This one is very quiet. Relatively easy to install. I installed mine without the light kit. Instructions were not included for no light kit install, but a quick call to Hunter customer service answered my questions. You do have the necessary parts to install with or without the light kit.

Relatively easy to assemble. Symbols are marked on each separate package what each individual items are needed and in what order they should go in. Wiring diagram clearly keeps it simple to hook up the wires. When it came to the blades I gave four stars for this reason the rubber fittings are a little difficult to get into the holes of the fan blades making it more time consuming. They should have been pre inserted at the factory since that is clearly where they were meant to be. Once the fan is completed and turned on it looks great, all included led lights are bright but the three fan speeds are slower than my original fan. They don’t have the same force as my original so that’s another reason I gave four stars but it’s assembled, working and done so it will have to stay. Will just have to get used to less airflow than my original one. Customers who purchase one will have to decide for themselves.

Great fan. Looks great. Works great.

I replaced a 52" in small bedroom with this 42" and both are HUNTER brand. Received box at 4 pm when I arrived home... and finished at 530 pm... was very easy. Old unit was 32 yrs old... hope to get the same or better from this one. Fan-Tastic!!!

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.

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.

I have had Hunter fans in the past and always good quality. This one is no different. It looks great,works perfect, and is very quiet and easy to install. Can't go wrong with it

Recibido antes de lo indicado, empaque y materiales de calidad, instrucciones de instalación precisas y fáciles de realizar, funcionando correctamente, muy silencioso, se recomienda ampliamiente.

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