Perfect fan for my new home. Easy to install and looks great

It really moves some air. Much more than the one it replaced. Very happy.

Awesome looking fan, really complements the room in the matte black

I was surprised my fan came with a wired remote instead of a handheld one in the box as that’s what the picture looked like to me. I didn’t really see this prominently on the product page when I bought it either and was frustrated that I would now have to spend time wiring another thing with no guarantee it could even fit in my already crowded switch box. The installation guide for the remote wasn’t detailed enough and I assumed I could wire in the remote without having to put in the two triple A batteries. Nope! The wall remote only functions when it’s wired and has its batteries installed. What a pain. Now I have to turn the breaker off, remove the wall plate, then remove the two screws holding the remote in place to change the batteries. Who knows how long the batteries even last. Having to change them every six months to a year is a nuisance. Don’t make my same mistake. I also set the fan to the highest setting and it didn’t feel very powerful. I originally intended it to ward off mosquitoes on my patio but I doubt this is strong enough, even on its highest setting, to keep them from flying near me. It feels more like a gentle breeze than a powerful fan.

Note: This fan has a built-in wireless receiver that is integrated into the motor (you don't have to wire it separately). The "remote" is a wired wall control that also requires batteries. The wired connection controls the on/off function, while the other buttons serve as a wireless remote (for speed/direction). If you want a real handheld remote, you can purchase it separately (per Hunter: get the one with up/down arrows, as it will support more than three speeds and this fan has 6).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Open the box and this is a really nice fan the The installation looks easy but where I want it I have to have electrician to run a wire for me Energy efficient Looks heavy duty and durable I’m sure the air circulation will be great it has 7 blades on this fan Hunter fans are great for low noise level 

There are two ratings here: The fan itself is five stars. It’s totally silent, it’s efficient, it looks great, and installation and instructions are good Then there’s the control, two stars. It’s an absolute joke: 1. The switch has controls for a light. This fan does not come with a light, and there is no option to add one. 2. The switch installs in the wall, but operates off of aaa batteries. The batteries install from the back! So, to replace the batteries I have to turn off the breaker and remove the switch from the wall. 3. The switch is white, with no alternative colors or face plates available. This kind of cheap, lazy design is something I’d expect from a bargain basement brand. It’s bizarre that Hunter, probably the biggest name brand in fans, would supply such a poorly designed switch with no alternatives. Hunter, redesign the switch. I’ll pay whatever you ask and order it immediately. Just do it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Downtown Outdoor Energy Fan is quality built for residential use. Install is a 2 person job as long as you have wired and mounting points. We replaced a cheap fan that was in our house when we bought it. Upgrading to this new fan took less than 30 minutes. We now have a much better fan as far as air flow, and it is much more aesthetically pleasing. It is very quiet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I know this says “outdoor”, but husband insisted on using inside. He is literally obsessed! Currently napping under the fan as I write this! It’s quiet! It is POWERFUL! Assembly wasn’t tough either. I wish it came with a light, but not a big deal at all!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have recently installed the Hunter Downtown 72 inch ceiling fan in my sunroom, and it has been an amazing addition! The sleek, modern design adds a stylish touch, while the powerful airflow keeps the space refreshingly cool, even on the hottest days. The size is perfect for my large sunroom, creating a focal point that ties the whole room together. Plus, it’s surprisingly quiet, making it ideal for relaxing or entertaining without any distractions. This fan truly combines functionality with aesthetics, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice!”
