    Default Ceiling Fans


    We bought a couple of ceiling fans 25 years ago..One is about to give up..We looked at several fans at Lowes and all of them seem to be junk..Is anyone manufacturing a quality fan?

    Don G I have 5 Hunter brand fans in my house and have always had real good luck with that brand.
    Be as smart as you can, but it is always better to be wise than to be smart.

    My mom & dad had the original Hunter fans that had an oil reservoir..You checked the oil with a pipe cleaner and added oil as needed...Those were quality fans that most hotels used...This kind of fan is ,like some other products, a thing of the past..

    I sold their home a few years back and now wish that I had removed the fans and kept them..

    I have an old Emerson Electric fan. It is 70-80 years old. I have to oil it occasionally. This is quality of the past.

    We have 7 ceiling fans in our new home. All Hunter, they all have a life time warrenty.
    I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're goin' and hook up with them later.
