All the Hunter fans I've purchased so far have this rather annoying mounting system where a large plate is screwed over the ceiling box and you hang the fan from it while doing the wiring. (As opposed to the J-hook design of other, usually cheaper fans.)
Normally this is just a giant pain, because one person has to swing the fan out of your way while working on the wiring. I recently moved into a place that has a "saddle box" in the ceiling. This means there is a joist running through the inside of the box - there is very little room for the wires inside. Unfortunately, the mounting plate, when attached, completely covers the box except for a small hole in the center... directly where the joist is. Though it is possible to squeeze the wires out of the hole, it is not possible to push the completed wiring back into the box.
I've always forgiven Hunter for this crappy design because it's been just one extreme inconvenience up front (stuffing the stiff wires back through the tiny hole) and then you can enjoy your beautiful fan. This time, my luck ran out. I either have to get a cheap fan with a J-hook design or live with the plastic cap on my ceiling.
