Hunter Fan Company Hunter Indoor Ceiling Fan, with pull chain control - Builder Plus 52 inch, Brushed Nickel, 53237

I absolutely love it! I have no regrets with it at all, and I would highly recommend this to someone looking for a new, powerful fan.Pros: even on highest setting, it's still super quiet and you get a beautiful breeze from it that you can actually feel. It's powerful enough to blow papers around :P It's super stylish and modern. Great for preventing dust build up. really easy to install, literally the longest part of this was screwing the blades onto the brackets. So it's super easy to install, and it doesn't move 1 bit on the highest setting, the only way it'll move is if you tilt it by hand.Cons: Bulbs are the only thing I don't like, they're the really tiny ones, but it's not a huge deal because if you don't like the soft white color, you can swap them out. One other thing I didn't like was the packaging, it's literally just the factory box with shipping stickers on it, and the UPS guy didn't even ring the bell or knock, he just left it on the steps and walked away, I'm glad my phone sent me a message saying it was delivered, so I'd recommend turning those on. Other than those two, I really can't think of anything else wrong with it, maybe the price? But honestly, It's SO worth it. I can't wait for summer to come now, I'll have no problem keeping cool now :)Really, this thing is flawless, and I'm being completely honest. If there was something wrong, I'd be the first to tell you. But it's amazing! The blades are reversible which is really nice :) I got the Nickle and Cherry one, and personally I think it looks the best, the other side of the blades is a brighter tint to the cherry more of a darker wood color, still really nice :) And like I said, I can't wait to try this out for the summer when it gets super hot inside, the long, wide blades will be perfect for providing excellent cooling :D If you're looking for a new fan, seriously, get this! You will not regret it at all :)

Love the polished look and blades have different wood looks on each side. I got to use it last night and it worked great. It rotated air very well and I slept comfortable. Quality is good. Love this fan.

Bought this to replace a similar Harbor Breeze ceiling fan. It's on a fairly long down rod (probably 18"... reused old one), which makes any out of balance worse as the fan has more leverage to create wobble. Hunter does enclose a blade balancing kit, but I was surprised to not need it. The fan was better balanced straight out of the box than I've ever been able to get most fans balanced over the years with a balancing kit. With the fan on high, the pull chains hang straight down and don't sway at all from any wobble.Also the fan is very acceptably quiet, which is of course very important when trying to sleep on a quiet night when you can hear a pin drop.Only thing I can nit pick is I'd probably prefer would have been for the light kit to come separately, and for Hunter to offer more light kit choices. It comes with a 3 bulb, frosted buttercup globes fixture. Some people might prefer a 4 bulb design, different buttercup designs, or a large single globe design, which is why I'd prefer to purchase a light kit separately.We use the fan lights as the primary light source for a fairly large room, and the old fan had a 4 bulb light kit. Plus the fan comes with only 40w equivalent LED bulbs. So this was a substantial reduction in light output compared to the old fan/light. We noticed and realized this was likely going to be an issue before we bought the fan, but planned to buy 60w equivalent bulbs to compensate. We did that and are satisfied with the amount of light output.I could tell this Hunter fan was better designed than the Harbor Breeze as I was putting it up. Starting with the hanger bracket that connects to the ceiling junction box, it is wider and heavier made, and has rubber pads that become compressed against the ceiling, which helps it tighten more uniformly should the ceiling surface not be completely smooth, and helps dampen any wobble or vibration.Also the ball joint of the hanger is not a perfectly round ball shape. It is rounded, but also has a slight triangular shape, which matches the socket in the hanger bracket. So while that slight triangular ball/socket design still allows for any needed movement, it also creates somewhat of a little "detent" pressure to help keep the downrod in a straight down position. I suspect this design overcomes any slight blade imbalance, and is probably why the pull chains don't even sway at all even on high.Overall I'm very pleased with the purchase, and think it's excellent value for the cost. Bottom line is that I wouldn't do anything different if I had to do it over again.

Purchased this model in May 2018, fan worked great, 3 speeds, 3 lights, easy to install. I use this fan a lot. Don't know why but in August 2025 the motor failed, installed new switch and capacitor to find motor problem, probably inline high temp fuse--it wouldn't work on any speed. Called Hunter, the cust svc rep gathered the info, I sent the receipt from amazon, they shipped it to me in less than 5 days. Excellent cust svc. I highly recommend this fan and Hunter, very satisfied and would buy again when needed.
