Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hunter 21617 Palermo 52-Inch Energy Star Brushed-Nickel Ceiling Fan with 5 Maple/Cherry Blades
Customer Review: Very nice fan
Summary: 5 Stars
I have an older two story home built in 1967 and the upstairs ceilings are just under 8 feet high. There aren't many modern looking fans that work on a lower ceiling. The huggers that I've found all have the same look of the brass fluted case with the flower shaped lights. Was looking for something modern and a bit more masculine and this was the one.
TIP: Make sure you use a standard light switch with it instead of a dimmer switch. First time I put it up it hummed like crazy, I was really bummed. Then I did some searching and found on the hunter site they say not to use a dimmer switch, that will cause the humming.
Also the light is either on or off and it's a florescent light. I did find the GE Kitchen and Bath natural light which looks good, just takes getting used to. Doesn't quite give you that warm glow like the standard incandescent light bulb.
Customer Review: Wonderful Fan
Summary: 5 Stars
Energy Star rated, which I view as a big plus. The florescent light fully lights my bedroom and is not what I would consider "harsh" light. The remote control is fantastic, especially when going to bed because I do not have to get up to turn off the lights. The fan is extremely quiet and smooth ... I have yet to hear the fixture shake. Not only is the fan extremely functional, but it is pretty stylish, as well.Customer Review: Works great - but no dimmer available
Summary: 4 Stars
This fan is great - we purchased it for the energy savings rating, not realizing that meant it was flourescent and the electrician said you can't use a dimmer switch with a flourescent. That's the only downfall - either on or off when it comes to the light. And you have to use the remote, which in our house with 2 men, will never last, though they said we could super-glue it into the holder...time will tell if this is necessary! Anyway, other than that, it's a great fan - very quiet, looks great.Customer Review: big dissapointment

This fan arrived with some screws missing -- maybe reconditioned? I bougth it as "new" Got the missing screws at the harware store and mounted the fan. It had a very distinct/loud humming sound (not "silent" as Hunter claims). It also wobbles badly even at medium speed, something that coud not be corrected even with the kit included. I notified Amazon and will be returning this item as "defective".Customer Review: bought it cheaper
