1st off I would like to say that this is a very nice looking fan. The blades are real wood. It resembles an antique airplane prop. The end result is a nice looking fan with some neat variations of use on the remote including a natural wind setting. It doesnt seem to move quite the volume of wind as my older fan but that is probably the difference in this 3-blade vs my older 4-blade. I am not a professional so the installation caught me by surprise a little. It MUST be wired through the converter box as the motor works on DC. IF it is wired through the converter box, it is a very simple installation. I did not go through the simple route, but that is an amusing story for another day. As I stated, when wired through the included converter box, it would take less than an hour to install.
BEAUTIFUL fan with real wood blades.
