Summary: Sound of summer
Comment: What a great purchase! My daughter's room is the hottest space in the house, and her old fan died a nasty death at summer's start. After scanning the Amazon reviews, this Hunter fan seemed the obvious call --and it was a good one! I'll agree somewhat with another reviewer's commentary on assembly: it's not a quick, snap together job. However, with a bit of patience and ingenuity (and de-coding the instructions, to some extent), it really is NOT an onerous job. Just a quick tip: the worst part is the last, where you "snap" the metal clip over the grill to fasten its two halves together. It doesn't exactly slip into place, and I found that using the flat edge of a screwdriver to "persuade" that clip to go where it belongs does the trick beautifully. As mentioned elsewhere, the fan is quite efficient at the lowest speed, makes a pleasant sound --and my daughter's room became completely welcoming and comfortable, day and night.

Summary: Original and replacement broken, returning both.
Comment: We thought this fan would be perfect for us. It's sturdy and looks great. But after only 2 weeks, it just stopped working and refused to turn back on. Amazon sent us a replacement, but when we opened the box we found the 2 metal parts that surround the motor were bent and wouldn't fit together. So both fans are going back for a refund. Very disappointed with this purchase - Hunter seem to have some quality issues to work out.

Summary: Not So Quiet
Comment: I have to say I'm a bit disappointed in this fan. It's made to last a lifetime, but despite its cost it is quite loud for the amount of air it moves. True, it's almost silent on its lowest speed setting, but it moves almost no air. On medium, it blows about as hard as my cheap plastic fans do on low, but it's much louder. On high, it fairly howls. I think you'd have trouble carrying on a conversation in the same room. Someone said the only noise it makes is air movement, and what can you do about that, but I disagree. The wind doesn't make a loud buzzing noise when it blows through my window, no matter how hard.
The advantage this has over cheap plastic fans (other than weight and durability); the metal blades don't flex. With my plastic fans, the noise level (and amount of air moved) seems to fluctuate. They start out moderately noisy with a nice stream of air, then 90 seconds later the air stream dies down and the fan gets extra loud, then back to moderate and windy, over and over again. The change in noise makes it impossible to use plastic fans on anything but low while I'm sleeping. The Hunter fan is a lot louder, but at least the noise level is constant, and I can sleep with it.

Summary: Great Fan
Comment: I bought two of these fand from Amazon. The first arrived quickly and went togeather easily. The second arrived in a damaged box and the fan housing was broken. Amazon arranged to have it picked up and promptly shipped me another fan at no cost. Hopefully this one works out.

Summary: Big beauties work hard and run cool and QUIET!
Comment: Large, beautiful, QUIET and effective. We love the soft background drone of a great fan. Reminds me of being a kid in the 1950's. We use these to cut down on air conditioning costs: They pay for themselves if they cut just a couple AC weeks out of your summer, so every other use of them is a free ride. For example, they are vital for canning season, to help the hood and the windows to push out the heat and humidity and to pull in cooler outside air. We even set one up in front of the treadmill to use year 'round for indoor jogging comfort.
This is a large, heavy-duty home-use fan - I bought two and also use a couple Hunter table fans. These pedestal fans are beautiful. It is a brushed nickel finish, but very finely done so it is nearly a satin polish appearance instead of the crude job typical of brushed nickel. It has a cast iron base plate weight (ultra-stable and zero wobble) and quite a few pieces for the assembly. Assembly was very easy (regardless what the nut-jobs claim), excepting for just one aspect: I had a devil of a time getting the nickle base shroud to thread on over the iron base plate on both fans and the replacement fan. I complained to Hunter about it. This is just a machining alignment problem - easy to fix at the factory, if they only try.
One of the two fans failed to oscillate properly, but Hunter Fan Company promptly sent me a free replacement, so I have two great pedestal fans for very little trouble. Far and away my best customer service experience of the last several years.
Operation has been faultless over the last fourteen months with almost 100% operation during the hot months and limited winter use. Go get 'em!!!
