Great buy. Have had much enjoyment from this product. We used it lots in July and August with the children. Would really recommend this product.

Purchased at a big box store and so far it's been good. Haven't had a chance to use it extensively yet but the install process took a full day. I would recommend using some isolate vibration strip (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00B84MJE2/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1465232745&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=Sorbothane+strip&dpPl=1&dpID=41Jb%2BBdsLSL&ref=plSrch) and setting the fan above it before securing the fan. I put my in the hallway and I didn't have any white screws so I just some black screws and use screw covers to hid them. I purchased a separate switch for the fan that combines the on/off and high low as one instead of two separate switches. Directly above the this fan, I also installed an attic fan that will funnel out the hot air in the attic outside to keep my upstairs temp. down.

Very nice fan.  Perfect of my needs.  I am using this on my deck when I go out to sit there in the heat.  When I am not using it, I bring it into the house; it cannot stay out unless protected from wind and rain.  It is easy to operate, easy to put together.

Fantastic purchase!  My daughter-in-law installed it with the new fan I also purchased from Amazon, the Hunter 53091 Builder Deluxe.  It fit in the fan perfectly and works like a charm.  I use it in my bedroom, on the manual function.  I don't use the thermostat control.  It installed quickly and worked right away.  I have been using it for a week and no problems.  My fan is connected to a light switch on the wall, so I use the switch to turn the fan off and on when I leave or enter the bedroom.

Highly recommend this item. The Hunter 53091 is a terrific fan as well.  Easy install and is very quiet.

This fan is well made, it's made by Emerson which has a long history of making motors and offers a limited lifetime warranty on this fan motor. It comes with 2 sets of blades, the regular paddle blades that are more weather resistant or the tropical leaf blades. I would not put this fan in a wet location but a covered porch would be fine, especially since it has a light on it.

The directions are pretty fuzzy, and it requires a bit of experience to install the fan. Installing this fan requires 2 types of screw drivers, wrench, wire stripper, a ladder and lots of patience! I tried to install it myself but gave up and had to enlist a friend with more experience. The fan does not shake or vibrate and is nicely balanced. It fits in nicely with the dark wood theme in our basement. I installed the regular blades, the tropical ones seemed huge and would perhaps look better in a semi-outdoor setting. It's a good fan for regular 8 foot to 9 foot ceilings, the included remote makes the operation very easy.

The 3 CFL light bulbs and 9V battery for remote operation are included which is a nice touch. I am giving it 4 stars on Amazon as I saw it for substantially less in Costco some time ago.

Very good fan for the price! Great value. Easy to install with good instructions. All parts well marked in the instructions. I installed the fan in my shop for air movement and some cooling. It has been running since I installed it, always on low to keep air moving to help with mildew and musty smell, and sometimes on high when my wife gets on the treadmill right under the fan. The fan moves a LOT of air and she likes it a bunch. Fan didn't need any adjustments or balancing. Didn't want a light on the fan and this one fit the bill. Would definitely buy again and recommended it to my son.

We have 5 of these quiet tower fans. We use them all year round. Took about 4 years before became noisy. I guess they were very well used.
Took one to work where my desk area was in afternoon full sun without much ventilation. Solved my problem of overheating.

It is a good built fan, I just bought one and replaced the old one, easy to install. No problem at all

I ordered two of the fans for my covered deck.  I had them installed so I won't comment on installation except that my electrician told me he taught they were well constructed for outdoor use.
They are simple to operate using the provided cord to adjust speeds and on/off functions. They work as designed and provide a very nice flow of air. For the price, they have exceeded my expectations so far.

Was super easy to install in place of my old fan.  Check YouTube for some videos on how to install them.  The old fan looked like a cheap computer fan and was only about 4 inches in diameter.  This fan is much larger and moves much more air.  On low or medium speed it is quiet and medium does move the air well.  High is a little noisy though.  I put a dog house over top to keep rain out so now I can run this even when it rains.

The fan is similar to my older Cyclone fan. The Wind Machine seems to be quieter and more powerful.
No problems after about 5 weeks of daily use.

This fan works perfectly!
It gives you a very gentle and cooling breeze that covers a good range.
It is very quiet, I use it to study at the university and it is not noticed unless it is seen.

It is a nice looking fan with remote. Quiet except in fast speed, there is some hum in fast speed, perhaps to be expected. Easy to install. Following the instruction to push the wires into the junction box is not possible, I spoke with the home depot people, they agreed that is hard to do if at all.  hey suggested leaving them in the canopy.  He also told me to wind the wires around the post and not cut them just in case you will need to use a longer extender.  But doing so causes the wires to stick out through the gap between the canopy and the down rod. So I cut the to size.

Installed these fans under our pergola. Totally exposed to rain and shine. It has been about 8 months, and so far it has worked well. I gave it only 4 stars because it looks really small outside and the air displacement is a bit lower than expected. Overall, a nice all weather fan that you can install pretty much anywhere.

This replaces another brand's gable fan that burned out when a stray piece of plastic got caught in the fan. The old fan could be heard in the 2nd floor rooms directly below; this fan is much quieter and can be heard only if I open the door to the attic. This is an old 2 story brick house with a walk-up attic, so installation was simple---fan is mounted on a piece of plywood cut to fit the semi-circular window at one end of the attic. The other window is glass so when the attic door is open, the fan pulls air from the rest of the house. This is Michigan , with 80-90 degree days but dropping to high 60's, low 70's at night. By closing all the doors and windows at night except our bedroom window, this attic fan is able to pull enough cooler outside air through our room to create a comfortable breeze. Every house is different---this one is 40 x 30, i.e. two floors of 1,200 sq ft each plus  a 1,200 sq ft attic. In our case, the fan is powerful enough to pull in outside air from downstairs, even if the only open window is on the first floor. As noted by others, the screws for the mounting brackets do protrude inwards with very little clearance ---in my case the fan blades did hit one screw when I first started the fan but this problem went away when I backed that screw out one or two turns. Mounting with nuts and bolts would be an  alternative.  This is not a "whole house" fan but it does exactly what I intended which is to draw cooler air through one or two windows at night.

This is a great fan, well-made, quiet (but not silent), good oscillating features, I like it!  This replaced a remote control Holmes fan I've had for many years, I keep it out of the way on top of a bookshelf near the window.  This fan did not angle down enough, so I opened it up and modified the cranking system slightly, then sanded the front edge of the fan so it wouldn't hit the base and I'm all set.  I mention this in case anyone wonders if hacking this fan is possible...  And I guess to point out that if it's positioned high up, it might not angle down as far as you like...

The fan was easy to install with the very simple instructions. It is extremely quiet perfectly balanced right out of the box.
