Review on Modern Retractable 48 Inch Fandelier Ceiling Fan Light: Remote Control, Silent Motor, Dimmable and Chandelier Design by Kim Allen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not dimmable, do not install cable and radio receiver in bracket

The light is not "dimmable" as advertised, but they think (after consulting the seller) that the colors of the light are = dimmable . To be clear, the LEDs can go from super white to bluish white to soft white (the only reasonable option unless you're installing this in a lab and need that bright white light). If you don't fix the list, you know "dimmable" is a lie. A few weeks after installing this unit, the canopy covering the bracket/wires is still loose. There are a lot of cables to cram into the box/bracket, now look at the big remote receiver = not possible). Correspondence with the seller ended with "Yes, no, it should work". It is not. I am currently looking for a larger mount/matching canopy to trade for. The retractable wings are cool, the fan is pretty quiet, and the remote control works well. This would have been a solid purchase if it weren't for the wire/bracket issue...and a great purchase if I could complete the canopy installation and the lights were actually dimmable (as advertised).

Pros
  • understandable even for the old one
Cons
  • functionality
