MINKA-AIREF565-BN Mesa 52 Inch Flush Mount Low Profile Ceiling Fan in Brushed Nickel Finish

Brushed nickel appearance is nice, modern looking, attractive. Does not have room in the cover bracket for a remote receiver.

(Short version below) My old indoor ceiling fan rocked and rolled, creaked, moaned, and hung down low enough to mangle fingers on occasion. After MUCH research and studying reviews, I chose the Minka-Aire Mesa Flush Mount. I am so pleased with my purchase. The fan was easy to install, and it even hooked up to my existing fan wall switch.There’s no light; I didn’t want one, so I’m happy with the current unit. I did add my own glass pull switch, though purely for aesthetics. I know this is an “economy” model, but despite the reasonable cost, the quality of the materials is very solid for this price point. The brushed nickel and silver finish looks nice when you look at it, and blends in when you don’t. See pics, but please don’t mock my sad popcorn ceiling. Oh the shame.The blades are a sturdy, thick mdf; the housing is metal. The fan really blows – I was surprised at the difference between my old fan and this one – the Minka-Aire blows air with strength and speed. Our swamp cooler went out, and so for more than a week, I was utterly dependent on this fan. It was surprising the level of cool this 3-speed unit cranks out. I’m looking forward to using it in the winter to circulate air.But the main reason I bought the adorably k-poppish-sounding Minka-Aire fan is because it is a hugger. Our lovely home with the sad little ceiling was built in 1927. The ceilings are a bit low. Installing this fan bought us an additional 10 inches of headspace (and inches to put fingers). AND it simply works better, blowing air around in greater quantity and higher speeds. My favorite unexpected bonus was the almost total silence of the motor. Another reviewer had a problem with noise; I suggest operator error, and a careful re-install. This is the quietest fan motor I’ve ever had. Combine all that with affordability and what more do you want? Dancing bears?LONG STORY SHORTPROS* affordable* hugger design allows for great ceiling clearance* quality materials* easy installation* excellent fan, three speeds work well* quiet, almost silent motor* hooked up to my wall switch* brushed nickel/silver attractive without being ostentatious; blends in* no light if you like that* name sounds a bit like a k-pop bandCONS* basic design, mdf blades (not really a con, but I guess sort of)* no light if you don’t like that (though you can buy one separately)* no actual dancing bearsIn short, I am totally pleased with this ceiling fan and I highly recommend it. I hope I’ve been helpful!

Loving this fan, our old one rocked and swayed and hung too low with the light. This fan can go on all speeds and is the perfect height, just wish it had a remote.

Very satisfied with style,color ,quiet and the air flow. Will buy it again.

love it
