Sofucor Low Profile Ceiling Fan With Lights Remote Control 52 Inch Flush Mount Ceiling Fan Modern Wood Blade Fan For Bedroom Living Room Indoor Outdoor Farmhouse Patio, Noiseless DC Motor

Replacement fan is much better (upgraded from 2 stars)
This is an update to my original review which I have updated again due to a battery problem with the remote. The first fan developed a bearing noise within the return window so I requested a direct replacement from Amazon. What a difference! Sofucor must source this item from a number of manufacturers as these were very different fans. The new wood blades were not countersunk and the attaching bolts were long enough as-is (photo attached).The remote and receiver were different. The new model is reversible (which is what I expected from the first fan shipped) and the remote looks completely different (photo attached). It also uses a special A23 battery instead of two AAAs (the included 23A battery lasted only a few uses twice now so I’ve asked the manufacturer to replace just the remote – in the mean time, I am removing the battery when not using it). Another extremely positive point is that if the fan is turned off at the wall switch, it returns to its last setting when power is restored. This means if an overnight power outage occurs, you won’t have a ceiling fan light come on unexpectedly.I have no idea how to tell in advance that you will get the better engineered fan. The new one had a sticker Zhongshan Kebaishi Electric Appliance Company on the motor housing (photo attached) which the original did not have. I did communicate my issues with the company.Having learned from my first installation, I assembled the fan on the ground rather than working vertically (photo attached). The printed installation manual was a bit easier to read BUT still differs from the physical fan design. The wiring is different from the first fan but all wires were clearly labeled and the diagram at the back of the manual is easy to follow.I also shared an idea that the short screws for the light fixture make it very difficult to line up the light with the bottom of the fan properly. I found a long version of the same thread in my miscellaneous screw bucket and cut the head off so that it when I slid the light fixture over it and centered the center opening on the fan, the other 2 screws lined up and could be inserted. I then removed my longer screw and finished with the 3rd screw for the light (photo attached). So far I am very happy with this fan.=== Original review text follows:The fan is very stylish and runs quietly but the installation was a pain. First, the written instructions use the smallest possible typeface and do not match the installation video either which is animated and equally confusing. The instructions only cover the longer down pole (aka the suspender) which leaves ample room to work. The shorter down pole is much tighter. It isn’t clear but don’t forget to slip on the magnetic Canopy Cover between the Canopy and the Coupling Cover. The video shows installing the blades before wiring the fan but this would make wiring later much more difficult. Speaking of the blades, they come counterbored with a 1/2″ wide circle to recess the bolts and washers. They are not drilled out to a consistent depth. This along with barely long enough bolts means 3 of the 6 bolts will not thread into the motor mount. I carefully used a 1/2″ wood drill to slightly deepen the recess but for 1 bolt I had to leave off the washer. The bolts barely clear the top of the blade by 1/8″ and should be longer. At least these slight modifications did not cause the fan to wobble which is really good as the generic wobble correction kit and instructions suggest bending the blade mount which is not something that can be done with this style blade. The instructions also show the LED lamp having 2 separate wires and not the plug used now. It is hard to fit but the clip for the plug does face downward. Push the extra wire upward to get the plug enough room to clip in. If it hadn’t taken so long to put this up, I would return it but it is working well at this point with a comfortable airflow on Medium. If you turn the fan off at the wall switch it will start up next with the fan off and the light on. I guess the intent is to only use the remote control. When you do start the fan, it starts up in high briefly before switching down to the selected slower speed. I blame myself for looking at too many propeller style fans on Amazon but this one does not reverse direction for winter use. There is not a switch on the side of the motor and the unlabeled button on the remote doesn’t do it either.

Looks great!
I just installed the fan and looks very nice. It wasn’t easy to install as the control box fits tightly on an angle. Not sure if it is straight though. Is very quiet , moves a lot of air and the brightness is great. For now I will give 4 stars, I will see how it works and in a few months will write another review.

Great fan
Elegant, functional, quiet

Great Fan
This fan works well. We bought two and have been using them for almost two years. Things I like:1. The style is modern and simple2. The light fills up a room3. The fan saves your “settings” so that next time you turn it on, it doesn’t default. In other words, if you had the fan on with the light off, then cut the fan off at the switch, next time you switch it on, the fan will turn on and the light will be off. I have a different fan in a different room that always reverts to the default of light on/fan off when you cut it at the switch that irks me.4. Customer service is great – my lightbulb was causing me trouble and the company sent me a new one.Would recommend

Has so many features it dims. It has three different light sources. The fan is awesome. Just a great product overall.

Fan motor didn’t work, only light. Reached out 2 weeks after the 30 day return policy- didn’t accept my return. Not returning because I didn’t like- returning because it genuinely didn’t work and we weren’t able to install it as soon as we received it due to renovations. They don’t stand behind their product. I ordered 3 others and they worked perfectly, just this one didn’t work. Very disappointed as I ordered numerous and not just a one off.
