Review on πŸŒ€ BLACK+DECKER BCF5252 Ceiling Fan: Sleek Silver Design & Optimal Performance by Robert Prix

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looking good: ceiling fans and accessories

You can install it all yourself, but it's always easier to hire someone else to do it. After placing the bracket, you can hang the fan and connect all cables. The fan is simple, stainless steel with wooden blades (not sure but looks like wood) painted silver. I'm glad it's less heavy than the old one it replaced. This fan has a backlight which our old fan lacked. Unfortunately you have to buy your own lamps. You need 2. We supplied 2 LED bulbs, each equivalent to 60W incandescent bulbs. This model does not come with a remote control, you have 2 short circuits to control the fan (it has 3 speeds) and the light. You can also connect the light and fan to a separate switch. We installed it in a slightly sloping ceiling and everything is fine. If you need to install it on a steeply sloped ceiling, you may need to purchase a longer pole separately. It comes with everything you need (except headlights), including wire nuts and an extra screw. It rocks at top speed, but who knows, maybe we (we, 2 amateurs) built it that way.

Pros
  • Try for a year
Cons
  • Periodicity
