Hunter 25746 The Grand Isle 5-Light 52-Inch 5-Blade Ceiling Fan, White with Frosted Globes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I cannot recommend this product.One week after installation, it's a nightmare.The fan is constantly turning itself up to high speed and turns the lights on anytime it feels like including in the middle of the night (it's in my bedroom).Everyday I turn it off before leaving for work and come home to a fan on high speed with very bright lights.According to Hunter, the remote control is very sensitive to other electronic devices, I not sure I buy that excuse but that's their story and they are sticking to it.Unfortunately you cannot disconnect the remote system because it is built into this fan. The fan is quiet and I really like it otherwise but I prefer my fans to not have a mind of their own.Do a search on other consumer review website and you will find this is a problem for a lot of people who have Hunter remotes.If you really want to give a remote control Hunter fan a try, I recommend buying a model that does not have the remote built it.Buy the remote separately and install it.Then if you incur problems at least you can disconnect it.I wish I had read the reviews on Hunter remotes before purchasing this fan.It's about to have a one week lifespan in my house.For the record, I also have a Casablanca fan with a built in remote and I have had no issues with that one.

I am very disappointed in the product and myself for not doing more thorough research.

Product Description:
The Grand Isle ceiling fan from Hunter combines elegant style with reliable operation. A ceiling fan such as this is a great addition to any space because it can help cut energy costs all year long. Use it during the summer to cool off, or run it during the winter to recirculate the warm air that rises throughout the house.
The Grand Isle features five 52-inch white/light oak reversible blades with a pristine white finish, and a modern four-light, 160-watt kit with frosted glass shades. You can also choose to install the fan without the light kit. There's even a convenient remote control, with three speeds, light dimmer and reverse, for independent control of the fan and light. Moreover, the Installer's Choice three-position mounting system gives you the freedom to hang it in standard, flush or angled position, while the AirMax motor, designed to run cooler and quieter from the inside out, features a die-cast, multi-fin aluminum rotor and exclusive impeller, making it the quietest, coolest and smoothest-running motor Hunter has ever offered.
The Grand Isle comes with a lifetime warranty backed by Hunter's 100-plus years of fan expertise.

Hunter 23683 High Street 60-Inch Five-Blade Ceiling Fan, Weathered Bronze Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted a new ceiling fan because I bought a house and the living room fan had an annoying whine.
This hunter model promised a whisper quiet motor. As I've gotten older I feel like I am more noise sensitive.
It was relatively easy to install. It is very heavy. Heavier than the slightly smaller 52-inch unit it replaced.
This wil be difficult for one person to do. I couldn't do it alone. It is just that awkward. It's nice to have
someone to help steady it as you are mounting it.
After the install I found the unit very very quiet. I could not perceive any motor noise coming from the unit.
It has 3 speed settings. setting one is very slow. It is just slowly moving which is good when you just want some air circulating.
Two I use most often. Setting three is fast and I did detect some slight wind noise as the air moved over the fan blades.
I guess that's to be expected. It is not enough to bother a noise freak like me. The blades were perfectly balanced so wobbles detected.
When installing the blades are "flippable" so one sides is a light Oak (?) looking wood and the other is more of a dark walnut looking wood.
So you can chose which look goes better with your decor. It does take the smaller candelabra socket bulbs.
I found two issues that bothered me a bit.
First I bought CFL's that have the candelabra socket. For some reason, perhaps the magnets in the motor, interfered with them and they flickered.
I tried another brand and they also flickered. I use CFLs in another ceiling fan so I'm not sure about this.
It works fine with incandescents but I wanted to try the CFLs. Also it is a remote control fan.
The 3 speeds and light control are on the remote unit. I wish the direction (Air up/down) were on the remote.
So when the seasons change and you want to reverse the fans direction you have to do it from a switch on the fans body.
Since my fan is mounted to a vaulted ceiling this will require pulling out the ladder twice a year.
My other fan has the switch control in the remote. It comes in handy.
Other than that I love this fan and would buy it again.
