Newsome, Indoor, Ceiling Fan, with LED Light, 42 inch, Fresh White | Low Profile Flush Mount, Pull Chain, 5 Blades, For Bedroom, Living Room, 51080

Installation of this unit was very easy once the proper ceiling supports were in place. For me, that meant climbing through an attic to put in the proper blocking above the existing boxes. It is great that you are able to do this approach and are not limited to replacing the existing electrical boxes. Once that was prepared, the installation takes less than 30 minutes! They are VERY quiet, and can easily cool a small-medium sized room. The light is also quite bright with the two bulbs in this unit putting out more light than the 3 bulb light that this fan replaced. After 1 week of use, I am extremely happy with this purchase as we just finished 5 days of temperatures over 35C.

I have learned over the years to buy nothing but Hunter fans. IMO, there is nothing that compares to the ease of use in install, the look and importantly, the sound that they make. And I mean that they make NO sound. Other than the sound of the wind that they generate at top speed, there is no humming, ticking or anything. I bought two this time and had them both up within 45 mins. Thanks Hunter!

I have several Hunter fans in our home. I had the house built for me so, originally, I had the electrician install Hunters in all of the rooms EXCEPT ONE. In that single small room I had a small off-brand cheap-o fan installed - Major mistake in my planning. That little squeak pot made more NOISE than all the other Hunter fans in the house combined. OK, so I plunked down some $ for this 'Hunter Newsome' fan and installed it (very easy installation) myself. Oh my, what a major improvement in the noise level. QUIET is the word for the Newsome fan. Pushes tons of air even on medium and low speed, plenty for a small room. I give it five stars, I like the fan. Be sure to read the instructions thoroughly as there are some little tweaking points that are important. I am adding another comment here on 3/2/2021. I bought a SECOND one of these Hunter 51080 fans to replace an old fan which had four ‘down lights’ (old style ceiling fan). The four down lights were awful as they shone straight into your eyes. To resolve the snow blinding effect I bought a second 51080, problem solved! The Hunter has a pleasing globe light and is totally silent just like my first 51080. This fan runs QUIETLY, really QUIET. Get some help installing these fans or you will be chasing up-and-down a ladder constantly to retrieve dropped screws, next part(s), and tools practicing their skydiving. The tools will have a great time but you won’t.

Great fan once installed. Nice look, very quiet. Great price. Install was a little challenging for almost every key step: 1) Hardware list and install instructions on separate documents...didn't realize they referenced each other until much later. 2) mounting holes for ceiling bracket too wide for outlet box 3) fan sits loose in ceiling bracket...not sure if this is right. Manual should be more clear. 4) fan cover too tight to install over ceiling bracket, had to pound it in place 5) routing of fan pull chain a little funny through light...more detail would be nice 6) had messed up thread on motor side for one blade to motor install...glad I had a tread tap kit. 7) plastic clip for light globe is hard to get off, interferes with pull chain. Will be pain to change light bulbs. Took 3 times longer than I expected to install with all these problems...would suggest a professional do it if you don't have the tools or troubleshooting experience. Final function of fan is great though and quiet as hoped.

I’ve installed many ceilings fans in the past, but this one has to be the easiest by far. Definitely created with simple installation in mind. Superior quality in all parts, and whisper quiet. It costs a little more than your average hardware store ceiling fan, but well worth it. Would absolutely recommend.
