Review on APBEAMLighting Industrial Ceiling Chandelier Retractable Lighting & Ceiling Fans by Dawn Adams

Not US Standard

This ceiling fan is not US standard and was intended for sale outside the US. The ceiling mount is too large for a standard US electrical junction box. everything about this fan i had to set up to work. I screwed the bracket directly into the joist above the joist. If you have two wall switches then you really need to know what you are doing as this fan is only designed to work with one wall switch. Also, the canopy that screws into the mount has a gap and the screws are too short to use. I had to purchase additional screws to attach the bracket to the joists and attach the canopy to the bracket. The cage covering the headlights is not properly aligned with the screw holes in the fan shroud. Metal is cheap junk so I bent the metal to fit and screwed it in. The lamp is not attached directly to the fan cover. It attaches to the cage, which then screws into the fan shroud. Also, the slots in the cage were too big for the bolts so I had to add washers. Again, I had to redesign everything about this fan, not only because it didn't meet US standards, but also because it was poorly constructed. This is pure rubbish. The only reason I kept it is because I had already uninstalled the previous fan that didn't work and wasted too much time installing this one. Looks great, but is still pure garbage. Would NOT buy again!
