The Minka Simple fan is just what it says, Simple. So many fans out there are, for lack of a better word, junky and old-fashioned looking, even when they try to be contemporary. This fan on the other hand is elegant and truly minimalist. This does not mean, however, it isn't functional. This thing really moves air. I bought the 44" blade size, installed it on a 9' sloped ceiling, in a 12 x 12 room. Even Minka said get the 52" for this size room, but I wanted less fan on my ceiling, so I got the smaller size. Was worried it wouldn't move enough air. I worried for nothing. This thing moves a ton of air, even at medium speed. Having said this, if you're in a super hot climate(I'm not), probably go 52" for this size room.
What else? The included 6" downrod was perfect for my ceiling height. I like the white color, disappeared into the white ceiling. I like the remote control with 6 variable speeds. I like the reverse function on the remote control for counterclockwise motion. Despite what you may read in some other reviews, I think the DC motor is very quiet. Yes, there's a little bit of "whoop whoop" at high speed due to the design of the fan blades, but it is still quiet in my opinion. I bought the WC400 wall control as well, didn't really need it but it looks cool. Also bought the light kit: K9787 - WHF(this is the color code for a white fan). Didn't need it for this fan, but planning on buying a couple more and will install light where necessary. Don't forget the slope adapter: A245 - WHF(this is the color code for a white fan) if you have any kind of sloped ceiling.
