330090SBK Kichler Lighting Arvada - Ceiling Fan with Light Kit - with Contemporary inspirations - 10.25 inches tall by 44 inches wide-Black Finish

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a beautiful ceiling fan, All the pieces are of good weight and sturdy. My husband, who is an electrician installed it in about 40 minutes including the switch. It was installed in the center of the kitchen without the downrod and the ceiling is 7.5 feet. The fan provides plenty of air circulation on all three speeds and there was no wobbling even on the highest setting and it is completely quiet. It was easy to reverse the direction of the fan through the included wall switch. When installed without the downrod the distance between the ceiling and the blades was 9" and from the ceiling to the bottom of the light was 10.5". I love the two different sides of the fan blades, each gives your room a different look. The light is bright however, the fan motor assembly completely surrounds the light so you get a downward light instead of an all around light. The middle of my kitchen down to the floor was lit up nicely but from the middle to the ceiling was somewhat dark, the kind of dark you get when you have two bulbs in a light fixture and one bulb dies. If I had a higher ceiling I would not have had this problem so it isn't a problem with the ceiling fan. We will be adding recessed lights and keep this ceiling fan up because I love it. The light is dimmable simply by holding down the light button on the wall switch, it gradually goes from brightest down to just a glow.
