Circulates Air to Make Your Home Comfortable
Because your home is where you rest, recharge, and gather with friends and family, it should be a place of extraordinary comfort. The Palermo helps create a space where air circulates freely, which helps improve your room's overall air flow and keeps the temperature at a pleasant level. And unlike air conditioners, it won't artificially cool your air with chemicals. It simply keeps the air moving, which can make all the difference during both warm and cool months.

Complements Your Style and Keeps Noise at a Minimum
Designed to enhance any decor, the Palermo features five reversible Cherry/Maple blades, and it is finished in nickel for a clean, contemporary look. Ideal for larger rooms, this fan accepts a 22-watt compact fluorescent bulb (not included). And best of all, the Palermo has a WhisperWind motor, which means it produces very little noise as the blades rotate.

Energy Star Rated to Save You Money
Thanks to its integrated fluorescent bowl light, this fan is beautiful, earning it the Energy Star label. The Energy Star label is reserved only for products that offer superior energy performance. These products generally save you up to 33% on your heating and cooling costs when compared to models that do not have the Energy Star label. With Energy Star products, the benefits are clear: you'll use less energy, spend less money, and worry less about harming the environment.

Easy-to-Install, Low-Maintenance Design for Years of Use
The Palermo is user-friendly and requires only minimum maintenance. It installs quickly and easily with the included screws and offers the convenience of three-position mounting (flush, standard, or angled).

The Palermo comes with a remote control and a lifetime warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fan, tricky install, May 9, 2009

Amazon shipped this item me very quickly and I installed it just today. Installation with this fan was trickier than others I had installed. There were too many screws, literally...I had screws left over and I followed the instructions precisely. The install took about 2 hours.

The fan is very quiet, and the light is sufficient. I wish the light could dim, but I knew it couldn't going into it. I'd check the Hunter website and make sure the blades co-ordinate with your existing decor...the website shows the true colors more accurately than Amazon's pictures.

Let me preface this with two items. First, I remodel homes as a hobby and have installed many fans in the past. Second, I have used Hunter products in several previous projects and been happy with them. I don't know what has happened at Hunter, but everything about their products have gone downhill. The instructions are horrible. One example, the drawing of many of the screws do not match what comes with the fan. It almost seems like the assembly instructions were done in another country. On the subject of parts - some were missing. The overall assembly design is also terrible. Finally, the quality of the fan is poor. The remote control is made of crappy plastics and is intermittent. I am so put off by this fan that I gave it away and will never buy another Hunter product.

I absolutely LOVE Amazon and will continue to use them, but I would not recommend buying this type of item from them. Why? Because by the time you realize what a piece of crap this item is you have all 20+ parts unpacked and partially assembled. It is too much of a hassle to get everything back in the box and deal with the hassle of shipping it back. Buy this type of product at Home Depot or Lowes.

4.0 out of 5 stars After initial problem, now it works great, September 6, 2009

I just want to update my review - this fan wasn't working at first, it would come on several times a day by itself, either the light or the fan itself. Hunter sent me out a new part, but that didn't fix it. I called again, and they sent out another part - now the fan is working great now. It's been two full weeks and hasn't come on by itself, so I think it's fixed! The customer service was excellent.

I like the more "modern" look of this fan.

I've raised my "stars" rating to 4 since it is working now. It's not a 5 because of the initial problem, and one other design issue I don't like. The way the glass is installed over the light, it's very difficult to take off, as the metal ring with three screws in it holds the glass and needs to be removed, but you need to hold the glass at the same time. It's almost a two person job (on ladders!) to remove this, or you risk dropping the glass. Of course with a flourescent light - I won't need to remove this very often to replace the bulb. Most lights you hold the glass, and remove screws with your fingers. This you need to hold the glass, and a screwdriver at the same time.

One other thing to be aware of, the flourescent bulb is one of those rings types, and is quite bright. No dimming available. It doesn't use much power which is good, just be aware it's bright.

Overall though, I'm happy with the fan now.
