I purchased and installed two of these fans in my back patio. Set on high they barely make a breeze that most other fans would have on a medium setting. After going back and forth with Minka about this issue, their tech support informed me that this fan is mainly decrotive, and that if I need a fan that actually blows significant air I should return them. Note, carefully check return policies when buying online. Curiosly Minka rates this fan at 6700CFM on high, it clearly gets no where near this air flow. Needless to say I feel cheated. I am still trying to find a way to return these $400 fans, that don't work well as a fan!
If you are buying these mainly as a decoration then you will probably be happy with them. If you live in a warm climate and actually need a fan that provides a significant breeze for cooling, then look elsewhere.

Changing out my outdated ceiling fan was one of the first items I tackled in my remodel. This looks beautiful in my family room, and the fan does an incredible job of circulating the air - winter and summer. The dimmer for the light and 3 fan speeds all controlled from the wall switch are very convenient features! Everyone loves the contemporary look.

Wow! What a cool looking fan....haven't had to use it yet since it's been very cold here...but it looks great!
