No QC with this product!

Ordered a set of two. Only one is bent. What came was useless. Was marked with scratches and abrasions under the protective plastic. Physically they are not the same as in the photo.

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not happy with everything

Great price - just what I needed!

Great value - better than any large size at your local store. We had to buy a converter attachment because the extension was larger than the fan connector, but it didn't really matter. It could be my fans, I'm not sure if everyone would experience it.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Weak Set

Perfect for my new fan!

I bought this Hunter 12" lower rod to replace the 3" rod that came with my Hunter fan. I have 10 foot ceilings and wanted to be able to adjust the fan speed and lights without having to climb stairs. The bottom stem fitted perfectly and matched my white fan. It was a great price and arrived two days later with Revain Prime.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some issues

Original? I am not sure.

I'll be honest and say I don't know if that's coming directly from Hunter. This one has two threaded sides and the original that comes in the box has only one threaded side. There is also no bottom hole so I had to adjust the bottom so that it was in contact with another piece of metal. The stem itself is strong, thick, and fan-white, which is beautiful. So don't be put off by some of the differences between this rod and the original, but again I'm not 100% sure it's the original. Otherwise it…

Pros
  • Like always
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

The range of orange large boxes at the local hardware store is limited, a mess and many of the bottom links are chipped or scratched. I ordered three of these from Revain because the price is better and each arrived in pristine condition. Although I think a painted steel bar could be cheaper, this is the best price I've found. The tech has to be right and I love that it's a Hunter brand and so do the fans. I've installed four fans (three with floor poles) in this house with no problems.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Works fine but oddly has threads on both ends

I have installed many fans and have never seen bottom stems with threads on the top. This one does. I have no idea why this is happening, but it certainly makes the top link weaker than it should be. It technically works (I used it with a Hunter Fan Company 59263 Cassius Fresh White ceiling fan) but I don't understand why they are threaded. vertex. For reference, the 5" and 3" bottom bars that came with the fan kit mentioned above are NOT threaded at the top - just the typical cross hole. In…

Pros
  • Good price
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Not as high quality as the fan

I bought this to extend my white 52" SummerBreeze. Being a Hunter brand I expected it would be easy to but it wasn't quite what I expected, this was my first fan install and there are no instructions on how to replace the factory stem, long story short, remove the screen and pin from the factory stem, unscrew the 1". -Stem and to put back in. I found that the tolerances on this bar were not as tight as the factory ones: this extension has a slightly smaller circumference which, although…

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • Only available in white
