Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hunter 21617 Palermo 52-Inch Energy Star Brushed-Nickel Ceiling Fan with 5 Maple/Cherry Blades
Customer Review: Remote problem
Summary: 3 Stars
The fan is great, but the wiring is too tight in the space available. Very hard to assemble. Also, when there is a power failure and then restored, the light comes back on. This is not good for a traveling person, since it could be on for days.Customer Review: Remote works 98% of the time.
Summary: 1 Stars
I have two of these fans. One was installed hardwired with no wall switch to over-ride the controls. Unfortunately, as others have written, the remote does not always work. This has made turning the fan OFF very difficult. It once took me almost an hour to turn the fan off (pressing the off button once every 5 minutes). Both of my fans have experienced this problem. It's completely random. I went a solid 4 months with no issues. Then, when we had guests come over, I could not get the fan or light to turn on! The wife wont ever turn the fan or light on for fear of not being able to turn it off at the end of the day.
I have shut down all computers and televisions in the house and still was unable to get the remote to work. The complete randomness has made trouble shooting VERY difficult.
Customer Review: Somewhat disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
Great price but installation instructions are poor. Light globe retainer / trim ring difficult to install. Light output is insufficient for my room.Customer Review: Stylish Fan
Summary: 4 Stars
This fan looks and works great. Very quiet. Especially like the remote and it's convenience.
Easy to assemble and install.
Customer Review: Very Solid Fan
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this fan because of the great contemporary styling and remote control. Almost bought it at Home Depot for $280 but then found one on-line for about $200. FYI, Costco occasionally sells what seesm to be this same fan (only in their warehouse) for $139, but they call it the Hunter Westside. I just bought my second and third ones to replace my dated fans. I had to change some dip switches so that one remote doesn't control all three at once.
There is a slight delay when turning the light on and off and the light quality isn't the greatest for high usage, since it is a cicrular flourescent lamp.
The fan seems to have a light hum to it, but is otherwise very smooth, stable and quiet. I was hoping to learn the signal for my universal remote, but it is radio frequency versus infrared and not possible. RF is the better quality, since it doesn't require a direct line of sight. Overall I would highly recommend this fan, particularly if you can pay $140 versus $280.
