How stable is the fan when using the extension column fully extended? I would need the fan to be 42" tall.

Seems stable...we have in our bedroom, so not a lot of traffic to bump fan, but so far no problems. It puts out A LOT of air!

Ours is extended fully to 42" and it is very stable. We have a large dog that runs through the house and he has never even come close to knocking it over.

my 42" is not heavy, but the base it is very steady and strong, if the specifications supports that weight I think it will be ok....

I have the 40 inch, and it stands upright. Leaning doesn't seem safe or reasonable. Make sure the stand is on a level surface.

We are using it as a stand for a 40" TV no problem, it's nice and sturdy I don't think you will have an issue with stability but it might look a little disproportionate as our 40" is the full width of the stand.

Use a larger screw. I used a larger screw when my fan wobbled. You should be fine.

I put 3 of these fans in house in Florida with 12 ft ceilings and used a 2 ft downrod. (FYI - best fans ever. No wobble becuz the downrod end is triangular insuring it's stability!) I know I cut off a lot of extra wire but can't guaranty the total wire was longer than 6 ft. Recommend you hit up the Hunter Fan people. They're pretty good at getting back to me when I had questions about compatible light fixtures for certain fans. Link to customer service here. http://www.hunterfan.com/Support/Contact-Us/

This fan is not a flush mount fan. You can use a down rod with it. We used a 12" down rod. We've been very happy with this fan.

My cabinet is 42 inches high with storage space. This works very well for me.

I had the same "complaint" as the first answer-er. I was disappointed to see that the fan only stands 38 inches tall. But it's super quiet..so I just have it set up on some boxes for now.

I wouldn't recommend this fan except for very tall ceilings. It could be dangerous.

Did you add the AV cooler? Mine will have a shelf above it about 3-4" so I would want the extra air flow. Any reccomendations?

That should be good. We have 3 inches at the top, for airflow. Nothing on the sides, and we have had no problems. Hope this works for you.

Creations 4.5 ft from top of fan full extended, I can say they were same size but airflow was not as good as my old one I still jeep

It would be close probably ok if you set it up so head is between joists. I have plent of clearance with a 8" ceiling and am 6"2 and short legs all upper body I do have to move away from a ceiling fan that hangs down a little more than a foot. It is a great price of equipment though and would highly recommend it if you have the space

I'm not sure about yours, but our ceilings are about 19 ft high where the fans are installed. We had to buy a long down rod to use them. We also had to use scaffolding to get them installed. It was a big pain to replace the ones that we've had for a long time, but it would have been the same with any fans. I LOVE these fans. So much so that we also replaced the one at our lake cabin with one.

My fan is not flush mounted and I also didn't use an extra 2 inch extension that came with it. My fan measures approx. 18.5 inches from ceiling to bottom of the light fixture. Hope this helps.

The supplied extenders extend the longest dimension (width) of the fan. You'll have to supply your own extenders for the height dimension.
