52-Inch Modern Wood Ceiling Fan Review: Quiet review video preview

I installed this 52-inch ceiling fan during a remodel, and my family has been happy with it. We especially like the wood blades with the gold-tone metal. The listing describes the blades as solid wood and the metal components as rose gold. I can’t confirm the wood species, but the design looks good in my daughter’s room.

I mounted the fan myself and found the installation straightforward. It was less difficult than some ceiling fans I’ve installed from big-box stores. According to the listing, the package includes 4-inch and 8-inch downrods, instructions, and access to an installation video.

The integrated light has different color-temperature settings. I can choose a whiter light or a warmer, more yellow light, which is the setting I prefer. On my setup, cycling the power changes the light temperature. The listing says it can also be adjusted with the remote.

The DC motor has been very quiet in everyday use. I can hear the airflow, especially near a microphone, but I don’t notice any motor noise in the room. I haven’t measured the sound level, so I can’t confirm the listing’s claim that the fan operates below 30 decibels.

My daughter regularly uses the fan while doing homework, sometimes at a high setting. The listing says it has six speeds. I didn’t measure or compare the airflow at each speed, but the fan has worked well for how she uses the room.

The included remote controls the fan and has one-hour, two-hour, and four-hour timers. It also provides forward and reverse controls. The listing describes reverse operation as a way to circulate heated indoor air during winter, although I haven’t personally used that function.

There is one wiring detail to consider before buying. The fan has a single power input for all its features. If the room has separate wall switches for the light and fan, you’ll need to decide how to use the existing wiring. One switch can remain as a power cutoff while the remote handles normal operation.

Overall, this fan has been a good fit for my daughter’s room. I like its wood-and-gold appearance, installation was manageable, the light provides useful color choices, and the motor has been very quiet.
