This is one of the few ceiling fans that doesn't look completely hideous (and is less than $500).I paid $169 on sale at Lamps Plus.Casa Vieja seems to be manufactured by Lamps Plus, as LP was mentioned on the box and in the manual.For some reason, the 52 inch version comes with a wall control only, whereas the 44 inch comes with a handheld remote.The wall control must be plugged into a wall switch (any switch will do.. doesn't have to be connected to the fan, as it is a RF control) in order to control the unit.This was problematic for me, since my old fan has chain pulls and was hardwired into the ceiling (no switch).So, you have to get the handheld remote for $24.
Installation was fairly easy, though the manual is pretty sparse.
The manufacturing quality seems a little questionable -- the bulb holder on mine had no threads so had to be replaced.Also, one of the blade holders had a slight bend in the corner, detracting from the "perfect sphere" look, but didn't affect fan performance.
The unit comes with two downrod options, but no flushmount.I was concerned about this at first, but keep in mind the light only extends 3 or 4 inches below the blades, so this ended up having more head clearance than my old flushmounted fan.
Overall, we like (or at least don't hate) the styling, and the fan seems to run well.Pretty quiet, no wobbles.
