Sola LED Ceiling Fan

The only trouble I had installing was holding fan with one hand and putting screw into the mounting plate with the other hand.

The product was easy to install but the switch runs off batteries which is interesting as electrical is there and can be used. The fan has a very modern design and can be used in both outdoor and indoor use. We used it indoor and enjoy its air circulation. We do like the led lighting as it cuts down on our energy costs.

Originally, we were going to use this fan in our home office. We currently have some high-end elan fixtures, which is a division of Kichler. This fan was suited to be a perfect and elegant compliment to the chrome teardrop lights that we absolutely love. Once the fan arrived though, we noticed that it is labeled as suitable for wet locations. At that point, we knew that we had to use this in our pool area. We have a pole barn with a nice overhang that covers a hot tub and is adjacent to our pool. In the summer, the still air can really keep this area too warm to use. With a ceiling fan, it will help regulate the still air and keep this area more useful. Another reason we felt this fan belonged near our barn is its forward-looking design. One of the hottest trends in antique stores and flea markets is old airplane props. For whatever reason, the fan gives the impression of a vintage airplane prop with a twist towards the future. It's very cool and matches our retro-trendy style. Even though the area was not equipped for a ceiling fan before, it did have an existing light fixture. Because the housing to the light fixture is aluminum and the siding on the overhang is aluminum, it was easy to install this fan. Anyone who has installed a fan before would have no trouble. For someone who has not installed a fan from scratch, I believe the task would be achievable with a little bit of reading and some patience. One cool thing about this fan is that it can be used with or without the light. We chose to use both. We leave the LED light on all the time for security and as a nightlight for those evening hot tub dips. I would buy this fan again without thinking twice. The value is much better than builder's grade product, especially considering the smooth appearance.

We installed this in a 4 season sunroom, and it is perfect. It's a flush mount so sits close to the ceiling. It has a wall mounted control which is easy to use and looks great. The only problem is that we wanted to try it with the light at the bottom but can't figure out how to get the silver cover off! It does look good with that on, but thought we'd try it with the light to see how that looks too. Overall, very pleased.

The fan looked great and was looking forward to the wall plate provided for the on/off feature of the light as well as the different levels for the fan. The installation was going well until it was time to connect the female to male plastic couplers. After attempting to connect them for several minutes, I noticed that one of the plastic couplers was bent and way off set , hence I couldn't get them to align with each other. I tries for several more minutes without success. I then had to take the whole thing down and replace my old light in the room. Needless to say I was very disappointed.
