Casablanca Fans 6645A 50" Panama Traditional Brushed Nickel Ceiling Fan w/ Remote & B202 Blades Review

Casablanca Fans 6645A 50' Panama Traditional Brushed Nickel Ceiling Fan w/ Remote & B202 Blades

Our house came with a Panama I fan in the bedroom (last owners put it in) and we were very impressed with the quality
and silence of it. We then installed a Casablanca Stealth fan (with the W62 wireless remote) in our media room, which was
also smooth and silent, but the included overhead 100 watt halogen light was less than useful for room lighting.

That brings us to the Panama II, which I installed in my wife's office, same smooth silence as the Panama I,
same W62 remote as the Stealth ( which makes installation easy since you don't have to fish wires down into the wall
for a manual switch ) and it looks great in Brushed Nickel ( matches our wall and floor lamps ).

Since light fixture wiring is included inside the fan body, adding a light is easy. I found that cheap ($25)
pendant fixtures from Home Depot and Loew's ( search Halophane at their websites ) work beautifully with a clear 60 watt
fan bulb (the max rated for the fixture.) Not a lot of light but enough for ambient lighting and security lighting
with the Security feature. The Brushed Nickel finish matches very well. ( see photos ).

I really like the classic design and modern finish, and I'd recommend the remote control model Panama II to any
do it yourself installer.

Hunter 90313 Retro High-Performance Oscillating 12-Inch 3-Speed Table Fan, Red and Chrome Review

This is a beautiful fan inspired by 1930's design. It has three speeds with the lever controlling speeds conveniently located on the side (rather than the back) of the motor housing. On low speed the the noise from the fan is little more than a whisper but still puts out a decent stream of air. It gets a bit noisier on medium and high but the noise is simply the air being moved and not mechanical noise from the motor. It has large chromed metal blades which when spinning only add to the appearance of the fan. Set on high and about 3 feet from the unit, I clocked the air speed at 10mph. Since I've never done this before I'm clueless as to how it stacks up, but for my money it's more than enough.

Finally, with such an attractive machine it would be a shame to see it all covered in dust and gunk. If you look at the red ring that encircles the fan's head, you'll notice a little red bump on the bottom. That's a tab with a single screw holding the red ring in place. Take the screw out and you can remove the red ring which allows you to remove the front grill of the fan in order to clean it. You can clean the fan with just the front grill off or it appears there are other screws that will dismantle the back grill and the blades for more thorough cleaning.

The fan oscillates but tilts neither up nor down. For me this is not a problem as the farther away you are from the fan, the more dispersed the air is. I sleep about three feet below the level of the fan and ten feet away and it's plenty windy for me.

No need to swelter on a hot summer day thanks to this 12-inch table fan. The durably built unit features all-metal housing, gears, and bearing, as well as a whisper-quiet Airmax motor and aerodynamic metal blades for maximum air flow. Choose from three speed settings--low, medium, or high--to accommodate individual comfort levels. The fan's adjustable tilt head allows for directing air where it's needed most, while its oscillating function ensures widespread coverage throughout the room. To make the fan oscillate, push the oscillation pin down--pull it up to keep the head stationary. In addition to delivering powerful performance, the fan looks cool in any home or office thanks to its sleek, retro-style design complete with chrome accents. Other highlights include a simple power/speed control switch, a generous carrying handle for convenient portability, and an easy-to-clean design. The oscillating 12-inch table fan measures approximately 12-2/5 by 15-2/7 by 18-1/5 inches and carries a five-year limited warranty.
