Excellent quality of construction
Excellent quality of construction. No issues with wobble at any of the 6 speeds. Super easy to install and looks very classy. Installed it in our master bedroom (14ft ceiling) with a 24 inch down-rod. The down-rod is 3/4 inch thick made by Minka Pushes a nice breeze on speeds 1 & 2 and just goes up from there. Never need it to run higher than speed 2 to keep the room nice and cool. Wish they made a 70 inch version that we could put in our two story family room. Bought this fan after trying the Monte Carlo 60 inch Maverick. The Maverick had a crazy wobble starting at speed 3 and got significantly worse at speed 6.

    Color: WhiteVerified Purchase
    I purchased this fan about a year ago (2015) and it's as great as everybody says in all the reviews. Quiet, stylish, powerful, etc. However, I will make a comment about a minor issue that took me about a year to resolve. I'm writing about this because it may be something someone is experiencing and driving them crazy like it did me...

    I bought this fan for my master bedroom, specifically to use during sleeping hours. During the day I'm at work, in the evening I'm downstairs and on the weekends I'm out and about. The very first night I noticed a small random crackling as the blades spun. The faster the fan would spin the higher the frequency of crackling. For most, this wouldn't be a big deal. Again, it was a very low sound and happened randomly where a few minutes would go by without the sound or it would happen repeatedly consecutively for a couple of minutes. Unfortunately though, I need complete silence to sleep so this crackling might has well have been a freight train. I could only have the fan on speeds 1 or 2 (out of 6 total) and even then I could still hear it. Usually most nights I would just turn it off because I couldn't take it. So in essence I had a functionless $700 decorative art piece. I didn't return it because I figured every fan would do this to a greater or lesser degree and I just couldn't see myself removing and installing countless ceiling fans. So I just kept it.

    I did try several times to figure out where this crackling was coming from. At least three times last year I took down the fan and messed around with the housing mount. I added rubber gaskets to every screw or metal space touching anything. I retightened everything. I sprayed W-4 and other lubricants. But nothing would make the crackling noise go away. Then one day I ran the fan at about 4th speed and I got real close to the fan to see if I could identify where it was coming from even though I thought it would be futile. As I listened, I realized the crackling wasn't coming from the housing or ceiling mount at all. It was coming from the actual blades. I was like WTF? Then it dawned on me. As the fan swung around the force of the air being moved was causing friction between the blades and where they attach on the fan itself. I instantly new how to fix this.

    So I took all the blades off and then applied a very thin, but complete layer of marine grease (I'm sure other greases work, but marine grease is pretty long lasting and has less odor than other greases I've found) along all the area where the blades connect w/the fan. I screwed them back in and have never heard a crackling sound again! It's been completely eliminated. I sleep w/the fan on all night now. It's the most absolute wonderful thing now. All you hear is the air moving. So if this is happening to you, that's how you fix it. Good luck!

    This fan was the easiest install ever. Just three wires. All the electronics that fans normally have externally are internal. The quality is very good for a fan. The blades are plastic because it would be stupid to make them out of solid wood. It would also be too hard to balance. You can't tell it is plastic once it is mounted. I love how people complain that they are made in china. News flash... 99% of fans are made in overseas. I can't hear the fan even on the fastest speed. It moves a ton of air. It is the best looking fan I have seen. I am going to buy a second for my bedroom.

    We have a Minka Aire Cirque that is truly fabulous and expected the same quality experience here. Some aspects are great BUT..........
    Great DC motor (really the only way to go), quiet and stable - mechanics get an A
    Good air flow from a three blade fan
    Very light weight, no worries at all about exceeding your ceiling bracket's 70 pound limit - installation gets an A, though the materials behind it's lightweight construct is the crux of my very very very unhappy review
    THE BLADES ARE HOLLOW HIDEOUS PLASTIC painted (on the exterior) to pseudo mimic a wood "look" (remember the 1960's "antique" finish that so many folks ruined a perfectly good piece of furniture applying - like THAT) Had the fan been half the price we paid, I mightn't be soooooooooooooo dissatisfied. Wish I had gone with Big Ass fan, same pricing, better aesthetics I look up at this THING every time I sit in the great room, see hundreds of dollar bills swirling around and think about how I have spent beaucoup bucks to cheapen the look if my home.

    Came packed nicely, easy to install. It's a bit heavy but once installed, it's super quiet and looks awesome! Too bad it's just so expensive. And the blades are hollow plastic but looks nice..I didn't use the white gloves provided but I think you should to avoid the finger prints on the blades. Installed in my livingroom, 60 inches sounds big but it's not.

    I bought the Minka Aire Aviation 60" ceiling fan and installed it a week ago. It arrived on time with all the parts and in good shape. The installation was easy enough with nothing unusual to deal with for a ceiling fan. All that gets it two stars.
    As you can see, this is an expensive fan. I think it looks good and makes for great ceiling art. As far as a fan goes it fails. First off the remote has 6 speeds but the 5th and 6th speed sound like my coffee grinder. You would never want to try and sleep under that. Also it moves an inperceptible amount of air throughout the room. Yes I have it turning in the correct direction! The blades are designed to "look" like a propeler but they certainly do not move air like one. I think the CFM rating on this fan is totally bogus. You can literally stand directly below it and not feel a thing. I do not recommend this fan unless you are buying it for esthetics only.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful fan. Installation was straight-forward

    Beautiful fan. Installation was straight-forward; the kit included white gloves to keep oily finger-prints from marring the finish! Motor is very quiet and since the installation was in our bedroom, this was important. It also comes with a short down-rod so installation in a room with an 8' ceiling was practical. If I was 6'6" it might not be! It is hot and humid here so having the fan on at all times is good; the efficient 6-speed motor is ideal.

    It was very expensive, but worth it.
