Why is this fan called "seven light"? Does it take 7 bulbs?

This fan have two sides lights, one is on the back facing ceiling and other side is the one we see on the picture facing the floor. We can turn both lights at the same time or just turn on either side. For me this fan is so beautiful and look grand , I recommend.

Yes, the fan up lights and down lights..didn't count the bulbs when installed, but 7 sounds reasonable. The fan is simply stunning!

I believe 7 bulbs is correct, keep in mind they are a special quartz bulb, I haven't researched replacement of the bulbs, but they may have to come from Minka. We like the fan, we do not use it for primary lighting.

The bulb came with the fan. It's a bright light. Better than some other lights that have come with fan. It is plenty of light/adequate for a 12x12 room

I used a regular light bulb, but I want to tell you that the light that I can use is so dim, you will have to have other lights in the room in order to see. I have bought Hunter fans for years and have always been pleased, but I think when you put the largest watt bulb you can use in it, you will still have a dim light. Not happy that I have to burn lamps and open the blinds in order to see with this Hunter Kensington fan. I have used Hunter fans for years and years, but this one is like no other that I have used. The fan doesn't even put out the breeze that my older ones do. I guess you get what you pay for!

The bulb in this fan has a really small base so it is not easy to change to a different bulb. There is not a great variety of bulbs with this base.

No, this has a normal light socket that will take any type of bulb. I have interior flood lights in mine. It can be wired to run the fan and light separately from two separate switches, or together on one switch, also.

It does not come with a light. I did not want a light and that is one of the reasons I purchased this particular fan. I love it.

Hi! Mine has 2 bulbs, and I LOVE it! Plenty bright enough for breakfast nook. We connected ours to a dimmer switch in an informal dining room and it is perfect!

I don't think so, not for me. I cannot recommend this item. I have two of them and the bulbs burn out in six months, and right now, one of them is broken. You have to "train" the remote controls to work and my two remote controls are different models. I don't know if the fan/light is broken or the control. I have replaced the bulb at least four times trying to get it working. I think the fan/light is broken but I will have to call Litex first to see if they can get my control to work. I don't like these fans: they are too much overhead and they do not provide enough lighting for me.

There is a newer model, http://www.amazon.com/Hunter-Fan-Company-54095-Caribbean/dp/B00ESVXXW4/ref=dp_ob_image_hi for which the product information states: Can be installed with or without 120 watt bowl light fixture (2 60 watt candelabra bulbs included). At this moment, that newer model also costs less on Amazon.

The fan itself uses two 50-watt mini-candelabra halogen bulbs that are included and are technically down lights. The wall control can only support 250 watts max. You could support up to 5 of these bulbs if they are on separate fans.

It has 6 bulbs in it. We have it in the dining room on a dimmer. It is very bright when turned the way up

It's used for a floor lamp with three settings. Mine has 5 bulbs. Turn the knob and 2 light up. Turn the know again and 3 light up. Turn the knob again and all 5 light up. Turn it again to turn them all off.

The fan requires a small candelabra bulb. You might consider upgrading to a small CFL candelabra bulb as these will give you a higher output of light. I had to change mine because the light bulb that comes w/ the fan wasn't powerful enough to light up the room. I opted for the candelabra CFL 23w (100w incandescent equivalent), w/ an approx. 1000 lm output.

It has 5 lights....I think they do have a smaller version with 3....unless you like lots of light, use frosted bulbs also..

An internal sticker says 9W per socket (total 27W).The item likely comes with 9W bulbs for this very reason. Although, I suspect that you could put older incandescent bulbs, so long as your fan can supply such high power requirements.
