Minka-Aire F896-84-CL Xtreme H2O 84 Inch Outdoor Ceiling Fan with DC Motor in Coal Finish

This is a HUGE fan that we've installed in our "great room" with a 14-foot ceiling. It's a gorgeous appliance, even if it sometimes looks like a giant propeller that could lift the roof. It doesn't do that at all. Instead, it's incredibly quiet, even at high speeds, and it circulates air without creating mini wind tunnels. In the winter, we spin it in one direction to circulate heat throughout the room; in the summer, we spin it in the other direction to better distribute A/C and cool the place down. Perfect.

Gorgeous, quiet and easy to install. Moved air quietly and efficiently in my open concept kitchen dining and living room. Excellent wallet and hundreds cheaper than in store purchases!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This fan is pretty but is absolutely useless bc it does not move any air whatsoever. Do NOT get this fan. You’ll install it, realize your mistake, and it will be too much work to return it for your money back. We even called the manufacturer, and they confirmed this was one of their slowest fans (note the RPM) and is intended for air circulation.

Just like all other Minka fans, this thing is amazing. We built a new home and basically have Minka's everywhere. The fans that didn't work or were making motor noises that couldn't be fixed we replaced with Minka's. They look beautiful too, not cheap looking at all. I'm hoping the all last quite a few years. This one in particular is way cheaper than a Big Ass Fan and pushes just as much air. Time will tell if they last. They are super quiet.

This fan is awesome👌 I would recommend for 10ft ceilings or higher for indoors. I have a 10ft ceiling and replaced the 6" downrod that's included, probably for outdoors, and purchased a 12" downrod. This let's the big blades do their job and push air properly indoors without creating a vortex making some people believe this fan doesn't push air when it actually performs amazingly well, even on level 1. This fan pushes nearly 11,000 CFM (cubic feet per minute) on high. I purchase the charcoal color and I love the way this thing looks! Super quiet, you only hear the air it pushes. Not sure why some people gave this beastly beauty a bad review, but I love it.
