Hunter Sontera Three-Light 52-Inch Five-Blade Ceiling Fan

I am very pleased with this fan, overall.
Not a super easy install for a novice like me, my husband completed the installation well within 2 hours, although the instruction manual was somewhat vague in certain areas, which earned this produce a slightly less than perfect rating.
We chose to flush mount the fan and 3-light attachment (bulbs not included) in a smaller bedroom with an 8' ceiling. Two alternative mounting options are included.
Remote controlled operation (controller included, batteries are not) is quiet at all speeds and transition is smooth, although there is a slight wobble at the highest setting only. Included is a balancing kit to address wobble.

My install was on a 12' ceiling with a 3' drop down bar so that in itself made it tough since my ladder barely got me high enough. The instructions seemed to show that the wires from the ceiling should be attached on top of the remote control receiver; however, I was unable to get the wires and remote packed in enough for the cover to go over everything and get the screws in to hold everything up.

This is the area where hanging the fan on the 12' ceiling became a challenge because I had a lot of extra work to do at that height on a barely suitable ladder. It would have been so much easier on a 8' ceiling...so if...Read more
