Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hunter 20413 Auberville 44-Inch New Bronze Ceiling Fan with Light and 5 Dark-Cherry/Medium-Oak BladesCustomer Review: Excellent light for the bedroom, fit-and-finish was lacking Summary: 4 Stars
Hunter has a great reputation and a home renovator friend recommends only that brand, so I have restricted my choices only to Hunter. This one is a nice, quiet fan/light for a moderate price.
There were a couple of problems. The screws didn't precisely fit the ceiling dome--I had to go to Home Depot and find similar screws that fit better. It's hard enough holding the assembly against the ceiling while pushing a screw in, and then to discover that the screw simply doesn't thread in smoothly is an annoyance. The other problem was a piece of rubber gasket hanging out of the motor assembly that caused a click on each rotation of the fan. I cut it off and the fan has been fine ever since. Still, it's a blot on Hunter's reputation and keeps me from giving it 5 stars.
I put in a Hunter remote at install time and I love it. The remote sounds like a luxury but in fact it's a wonderful thing, especially when you're in bed. I wouldn't get a Hunter remote again, however, because its circular design is confusing and after almost a year I still can't distinguish the buttons in the dark. What were they thinking.
One other feature that's nice is the dimmer. The Hunter remote has a regular light on/off button and a dimmer button. If you tap the dimmer, the light comes on very dim and makes a nice night light for your partner if you went to bed first. Of course, it precludes the use of compact fluorescent bulbs, but that's just the price you have to pay.
