Summary: 3 Stars
We bought this type of fans more than 2 years ago from OSH. We like the look, the cost and how it works (very quiet and stable, also flush mountable). you get the best bang of your money. A month ago, we bought another one from Amazon.com. In the product description it states using "standard-base light bulbs". After opening the package, we found that it uses candelabra based light bulbs. For this, we returned it to Amazon.com because we'd like to use more generic products for easy light bulb replacement.
After talking to several sales persons and electricians at local Home Depot stores, I found all new ceiling fans have changed light bulbs to either candelabra base or Intermediate base (or E-17 Intermediate) in recent years in order to bypass an energy saving requirement imposed on Standard Medium Base light bulbs. At this time, there is no specific energy-saving requirement on the candelabra or Intermediate base light bulbs. The downside of using none-standard type bulbs is that you are locked in to buy them from limited number of dealers. It can be hard to find replacement bulbs.
Customer Review: Economical
Summary: 3 Stars
When we installed this ceiling fan, the light switch didn't work so we had to order a replacement switch to install. Since then, the unit is working fine.
For the price, it still is more than worth the trouble.
Customer Review: never enough information
Summary: 1 Stars
Having purchased thousands of dollars of stuff from amazon, I am sorely disappointed in information given. My ceiling has a slight tilt and all of my experience with ceiling fans they have a way to adjust the fit but not this one. I also bought a kitchen dome lamp with a 13 watt bulb but the bulb is a specialty bulb and requires an expensive and difficult 3 prong plug. Both will go to my local thrift store. A previous purchase of a 42 inch tv was advertised with[..]rebate but when it arrived, the "rebate" was paper sports junk. I am very leery of buying from amazon now and will only buy books and small items.
