Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We bought this Monte Carlo Centrifica to replace a builder installed fan in our kitchen which didn't match anything, was an eyesore and mainly collected dust. Since most of our appliances are stainless steel --- and since the blades are spring loaded and compact inward when the fan is off --- this was an excellent choice.
PROS:
This is a great looking fan that is entertaining to watch, folds compactly when turned off and gives a designer touch to our high ceiling kitchen. The fan is well built, quiet, smart-looking and very entertaining. The motor and bearings are top quality. The fan is completely silent and operates flawlessly. The Halogen downlight and frosted downlight dome put out very attractive lighting.
CONS:
The fan is very pricey --- especially when you consider that the blades are not stainless steel or aluminum, but instead are made of plywood which are painted silver. The instructions are not completely clear and the fan requires a 100w specialty halogen bulb that comes with the unit but must be very carefully handled since oil from your hands could make the bulb explode when turned on. If you are replacing an existing fan, your existing wall switches may have to be disconnected since this unit uses a remote powered by a specialty A23 12v alkaline battery not available at your local convenience store.
CONCLUSION:
If you don't mind the price, and are looking for something different, that will get lots of compliments, provide great entertainment, and looks good in a stainless kitchen, then this is your choice. Although we would prefer the blades were made of metal - no one can really tell that they aren't. One of the best features is that the blades automatically retract when the fan is turned off, thereby making the room look bigger.
