Westinghouse 7855600 Jewel Four-Light 52-Inch Five-Blade Ceiling Fan, White with Frosted Globes Review

This is the quietest fan I ever used.If I did not see it moving or if there was no breeze from it, I would not have known whether the fan was on. Fortunately, the fan works very well at three speeds (forward and reverse).I also like the fact that the four lights accomodate standard size bulbs.I was able to place standard size replacement fluorescent bulbs without any problems.I love the fact that I can place four 23 watt fluorescent bulbs that is as bright as four regular 100 watt bulbs.Practically all the fans sold at Home Depot or Lowe's nowdays will only accept the small candelabra bulbs because of some senseless government regulations. Installation was relatively easy, especially with a hook on the ceiling mount which allows you to hang the motor unit to it while you connect the electrical wires.The DRAWBACK is that it does not have a remote control(what do you expect for under $100?), which does not seem to matter if you are able to reach the pull chains (extension is included but I purposefully did not attach it because of our rambunctious kids).Overall, I found this product to be well made, and I ordered 4 more in addition to the original 2.
UPDATE - within a week of writing the review above, I received the shipment of the 4 more that I ordered.UNFORTUNATELY these four were not the same.They only accept candelabra size bulbs.I guess the previous 2 that I bought (that accepted the standard size bulbs) were the old model.I am going to have to shell out more money for the candelabra size(AKA "intermediate base") fluorescent bulbs, which are 1/4 to 1/3 as bright and 3-4 times more expensive (about $4 each, after searching the internet for the cheapest at 500 lumens) than the standard size (AKA "medium base") fluorescent bulbs.Even though I have to get 16 of these bulbs for the 4 fans, I find the quality of the fans to be well worth it.
FINAL UPDATE (I PROMISE) - I was browsing through the internet and found a site that inexpensively sells(for under $2) an adaptor that lets you use a standard size bulb on a caldelabra base outlet.I am going to use this instead of paying for expensive candelabra size fluorescent bulbs.Please send me an e-mail if interested.
