Type of review

Purchase failed 1 day after the return period closed. Garbage. The protective conductor was not crimped correctly. The wire was simply thrown into the box. I had to drill out the rivets to disassemble and solder to the ground terminal. This should be UL listed. according to documentation.

Pros
  • Durable surface
Cons
  • Some cons

The fan works. The cruise control is broken

The cruise control is garbage, full of garbage. I bought another one and the same junk. They break and are held together with a couple of rivets, so you can't even fix them without removing one of those flat scraps. The fan works well, the shutters open and close normally etc. Moves enough air so if we don't leave enough openings in the house the water heater pilot will go out and the exhaust gases will be sucked up the chimney.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Protection

Worked less than a year.

I installed this as a bypass for my thermal switch. It was rarely used and broke anyway. I have to crank it up to the maximum for it to even work with the fan. The overall design feels flimsy and cheap. I'll put something else in as a replacement. Probably from Lutron or Leviton. Companies that manage! Better quality, more economical fan speed controllers are available online. I do not recommend this product!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • I will add later

Cools the whole house

The fan was installed in an existing window. We actually had to make a special "frame around it" so we could easily slide it in when needed (summer here in Wisconsin) and take it out when it gets cooler. Evening when the air is cooler We've only had one night so far when it didn't cool the house properly until about 2am (it was 100 degrees during the day and down to 90 degrees in the evening). .

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Nothing here

Think Hard in Ceiling Fans & Accessories

I bought 2. One worked and one didn't. Was able to return and exchange a defective unit. Now that's no longer possible. The electrician connected the fan to the switch. I don't know what to think of this product. I want to give you a reason to doubt because we have a switch that still works, but I'm stuck on one that hasn't worked after such a short time. At best, I'm disappointed with the reliability of the switch. Maybe if I had bought insurance. but the price is like a reliable product.

Pros
  • Best in their Niche
Cons
  • Slightly Crumpled

Product by Godawful!: Ceiling Fans & Accessories

This is a horrible product not sold in the US market. Build quality is cheap. I used it with an iLIVING 18 inch exhaust fan and it ran the full 22 minutes before it started to fail. In less than an hour it was completely out of order. Also, when paired with an 18-inch fan, there was an annoying hum and never let the fan perform at full power. When connected directly to the mains, the fan performed at full power and was quiet. I don't know why it made an annoying buzz when connected to a fan. Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and Modern Design
Cons
  • Zero

I failed two of these speed controllers

This summer I purchased an iLiving exhaust fan for my workshop through Revain along with the recommended iLiving speed controller. The fan itself worked fine but the speed controller failed within a few weeks of occasional use and the replacement speed controller also failed yesterday, also within 30 days of purchase. Revain will refund my money but I do not recommend the ILG8SFSC ESC. This is not new technology. There is no justification for launching such a flawed product. Update February 11,

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of style
