Tools and Hardware Reviews of Westinghouse 7850900 Contempra Trio Three-Light 42-Inch Five-Blade Ceiling Fan, Satin Brass with Frosted Glass Shades
Customer Review: This is a great fan (for deaf people)
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought 2 ceiling fans, a super gorgeous expensive one from Lamps Plus for our living room, and this little cheapie for the bedroom. On sale for $41; I liked the look of it. I replaced the cheap glass shades with etched amber, and the cheap pulls with ruby chandelier drops. I used the darker blades. When the electrician was installing it, he informed me that the main somethin' was bent!, and that the wrong screws and bolts were in the box. It looked brand new when I bought it. He balanced it with some foam padding, and as I hadn't been sleeping well due to poor air circulation or constant air conditioning, I said just put it up. It was quiet and pretty and I was happy. That didn't last long. The next night (yesterday) it started to sway and tick and knock so loudly that it defeats the whole purpose of being installed in a bedroom. Now I have to go find another fan, hire the electrician to come again, take this one down and replace it. I called OSH to complain, and the manager said he'd reimburse for fan and for electrician's fees. (He'd better!) I even had the electrician talk to him. If you're a new fan buyer like I am, apparently you have to pay a lot more for a quiet fan. Now I know.Customer Review: A steal of a deal
Summary: 4 Stars
After looking in lighting stores at fans costing around $130 I Ordered this product from Amazon on a Friday. I took the default (no charge shipping) and I received the product early on Monday afternoon. I installed it myself and had it up and running in about an hour and a half. It runs great.
I read all the reviews so I had concerns before I ordered it but I thought that the price was just too good to turn down.
Keep in mind that this is a small fan, but it is perfect for the room I ordered it for.
The ability to support the motor on the mounting bracket made the installation very easy.
The bird's eye maple blades are quite unattractive so keep that in mind if you are planning to order this product.
I still feel like I got a great deal on this one.
Customer Review: bad light kit
Summary: 2 Stars
The fan is nicelooking,fairly quiet.But it does NOT take standard base light bulbs as described,it takes candelabra based.After installation,we discovered the light fixture is defective because one of the glass globes does not fit properly, one of the sockets extend out too far,was not visible until we tried putting the glass globes on after we paid an electrician to install it.I called Westinghouse for replacement of the light kit and they said we would have to take the whole fan down, send it back and exchange it for another whole unit.They should send us a light fixture replacement,but wont. BAD SERVICE AND POOR QUALITY CONTROL from westinghouse, Not willing to stand by their guarantee to replace defective or missing parts as in manual.Customer Review: Easy install and quiet!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have installed several ceiling fans in the past, but the people at Westinghouse really made the install easy with their fan. Unlike most fans which require you to hold the fan motor up while wiring it in, Westinghouse put a separate plug on their motor. You wire up the plug to the home outlet, then lift the motor up. Could not be easier. It took 30 minutes total to install.
The fan is very quiet during operation. The fan output is also very impressive.
I am very happy with the fan and would highly recommend it.
Customer Review: Junk
Summary: 2 Stars
I have installed many ceiling fans and this is the poorest quality fans I have dealt with. The product you get is not the same as avertised. The bulbs are not standard and the light kits are very cheaply made. I had to replace the light kits on both the fans I ordered. I didn't even try return as I did not want to take the fans down and ship them back just to replace the light kits. I would not recommend buying this fan. Quality is not comparable to other fans I have installed in this price range.
