You have to try it to understand what you have been missing
This thing is quiet. Unlike the fake “whisperwind” promises you won’t hear a hum from this thing, and it does not need grommets everywhere to suppress the worst of that irritating 60 Hz electric hum either. It just does not make a sound, unless you put it at it’s highest speed. Then what you hear is a soft whoosh of air moving fast. But trust me, at speed 6 you won’t be able to keep your napkins on the table. We keep the speed at 2 while the highest practical speed we’ll ever want is perhaps 3.The edges of the blades are more rounded/beveled than the standard fan blades. I believe this too helps with aerodynamics and sound production.This thing has everything a normal person wants without being pretentious. For starters it is actually really quiet. It has 6 nicely spaced fan speed settings going from unnoticeable slow stirring of warm air accumulated at the ceiling to a whirlwind moving the curtains. The light also has 6 equally nicely spaced brightness settings ranging from “I can still find my bed” to “good for woodworking”.The LED lamp also has several color temperature settings. Again these settings are useful, meaning they do not offer all the rainbow colors and effects you would find in an’80s disco. Instead they offer color temperatures that range from moody candle light to light therapy bright sunlight. Enough to be practical and useful for a sensible grown up.The fan comes with a remote that does what it is supposed to do: turn the fan and/or light on and off and change any settings. You don’t need to use the remote as you can also just keep on using the wall light switch. The fan remembers it’s settings and will turn on to what you had it set at when you turned it off. The only slight annoyance might be that it takes 2-3 seconds for the light to come on after turning the light switch on. When using the remote there is no delay.The logical place to put that remote is on the night stand. That way you can make it to your bed safely and you don’t need to reach far to turn that last light off. This is such a little benefit that I only later on realized came with these new “fancy” remote controlled fans.Supposedly the fan can also be connected via Wifi. I have not done that. I like things to be simple and I don’t think I need to operate the fan at home while traveling the world.There are some timer choices too that I have not felt the need to play with yet either. That might change though.A thought: that big 12 inch wide circle of light on the ceiling seems a bit boring. I’m thinking about drawing some veins on it making it look like marble or something. Others might like the minimalist look. I understand.A tip to install it: This thing is heavy and unlike conventional fans it does not have some handy system where you can hang the heavy parts on the ceiling while making the electrical connections. If you are going to use wire nuts and/or have the fan blades mounted before putting it up it is going to be a 2 man job. If you use those “Wago” snap on electrical connectors while putting the fan blades on after it is on the ceiling you can do it all by yourself using only a Phillips screwdriver and a little step ladder. Installing this fan is less work than installing a conventional fan. It’s just different.

Absolutely quiet
This fan is sleek and stylish but also blends into your room. It is absolutely quiet and has a range of light hues that are very easy to switch between. Definitely worth the money.

Seems good but has some flaws
The fan itself seems to be good, the installation was easy and there is a mute button to turn off the beeps that one review complained about. The integration with Alexa was seamless and the fan is very quiet with a cool breeze function.The dislikes for me are more design oriented. 1 there is no trim ring to cover the screws that mount it to the ceiling bracket so it looks like you forgot to put on a piece. The blades of the fan look cheap and are very light and thin and easily damaged.
