Good looking fan, but Hunter quality is not what it once was.
I purchased this 52" fan as well as the 44" fan for a different room in the house. The fan looks quite good and I was initially pleased with it. The fan motor made a pulsating hum that was somewhat bothersome, but not bad. After a few months it also developed a clicking sound (as others have mentioned). This was too much for me given it was in our bedroom. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no change. Unfortunately, I no longer had the receipt so returning was not an option. With that in mind, I tried disassembling the fan and looking at the motor. I could find no obvious issues though I'm not an electrician. I was just hoping to find a small screw rattling around somewhere in the assembly and putting it back where it belonged. No such luck. I have now had it for about a year and am considering giving it away to someone I did however discover that a $180 fan today pales in comparison to older $100 or less fans from 25+ years ago. Inconsistently casted fan blade brackets, hot glue and flimsy covers do not add to the feeling of quality with this fan. I have the same issues with the 44" model but it does not get used as often and doesn't have the awful clicking sound...yet. I cannot recommend this fan. I'm already looking for a replacement.

    I feel like the addition of the remote has detracted from the speed output of the fan. Either that or the fan itself has poor power output.

    Fan is nice, no room for remote, light dome is impossible to put on.
    The fan is very nice and installs fairly simple, but the remote that comes with it needed to be installed separately and I could not get it to fit inside and be able to tuck wires in and slide the cover up. The light kit dome is impossible to install. I have given up and will be returning.

      I bought this to pair with wall remote control 99373/99375 and it pairs easily with the receiver from that wall switch. Both work well, but I gave 4 stars because I couldn't buy the 99372 remote control without its own receiver.

        The fan works well but the blades are really thin and the lighter color side is got stain from the opposite side. We have purchased numerous Hunter fans and they used to be well made.

        Beautiful craftsmanship. I loved the style and the lights. They are very bright! Great air circulation. Would by again! We bought two. One bigger one for the living room and this 44" for the kitchen.

        Like the remotes. However the fan speed is either on high or off. No in between.

        Terrible remote
        This was the hardest fan we have ever hung. The remote directions for installation was hard to figure out. The remote dimming feature doesn't work easily. Can only figure how to dim to 50%. Not true dimming. Try to dim the lights the fan goes off.

          I actually returned 1 fan because I could not find the blade screws. Turns out, they are the only set of screws that doesn't come in a bag, screwed into a plastic piece that (I hope) you throw out. I ordered another, and the fan really is whisper quiet. Plus a metal mounting set - not plastic!

          Nice remote and better price than most. You can leave it in the holder on the wall and work it from there. V. good response. I zip tied the receiver to the based of the fan to keep the wires away from the rotating motor.

          I ordered a universal fan remote for Hunter. I got a remote plus the devise that gets put on the fan, which I did not want or need. I am waiting for social distancing to be over so I can return to my local store.

          All of our accessory remotes come with pre-paired receivers. We recommend holding onto this extra receiver as a back up should you need it as a replacement or to use in another fan in the future. ~Kevin HunterFans
