I love the fan but I'm not happy with Amazon. I thought I was getting a good deal on this gorgeous and unique fan until I saw the same fan at a local Menards (Hardware and home-improvement store) in Indianapolis for $74 less. Since I'm supposed to be reviewing the product and not my purchase experience from Amazon... I'll continue. I bought the fan to hang outside under a pergola. So, it was important that the fan is rated for wet locations and this fan is just that. In addition, it is more powerful that I thought and quiet. The sails are different and nice looking. Overall, I'll give the fan 10 out of 10!

I have had the Hunter Sanibel ceiling fan for a couple months. It is uniquely beautiful. I have had to make many purchase decisions during our home remodel, and the decision to purchase this beautiful fan is one of the best decisions I have made. It hangs at the top of a high stairwell and it was not an easy place to install a fan. It is very quiet, has 3 speeds and the cloth sail cloth blades fit in with my coastal beach house. I did go to home depot and purchase a remote control to operate the fan and light, at a cost of almost $50.00. I also purchased a 12inch extending rod so that it hung lower from the vaulted ceiling I have. It is fairly easy to assemble. Hire a pro to install it.

Nice fan, but it does not balance like others with the weighted tape. Does fine on low and medium, but wobbles on high.
Have written Hunter for a solution to this problem.
Update:
Wow....Hunter was quick to solve the problem and sent new "balanced" blades which solved the problem. Dealing with companies such as this is worth the money. Great company; great fan.
Bought a second one for a rental, and it works just great.
Allow some time to install. It's not really simple, and be sure to have a magnetic phillips and screwdriver for small screws in tight places.
Love the design, and it's rock solid.

Love the style and operation I bought another one!
The 'cloth' blades clean easily, moves plenty of air BUT ONLY in one direction, even though the description says it is reversible, my two came with one-direction only, no switch to change direction - must be a misprint.

Well constructed, durable, quiet. Only goes one direction. Takes about 45 min to assemble & hang. I haven't seen this in stores. It is unique in design and works well.

I love the uniqueness of this fan. The motor is super quiet and the configuration of the blades really move air well.

The fan, particularly the light kit, is difficult to install. Now that it is installed (five months ago) the housing holding the globe/shade just fell off of the fan the first hot day of summer. In examining the light kit, it is obvious to me that it is was not designed/built for outdoor use because it does not provide adequate strength and play for expansion/contraction. I am surprised since it is an outdoor fan with a wet rating. Furthermore, good luck with even finding out how to order a replacement globe from Hunter.

The fan looks great, but don't count on it lasting or being easy to fix if you have a problem.

My husband hated putting these up (we ordered two). He says they were the most difficult fans he's ever mounted. One of the fans came with a broken globe, so we called the manufacturer and the immediatly sent a new one. The second one came and didn't fit. So, we are waiting for number three. I really like the aesthetics of the fan. We have them outside on our covered patio.

This product arrived quickly, as described, and at a price nearly $100 less than retail stores. I couldn't be more pleased.

This light looks great in our house. It works well and is very quiet. My only complaint is the glass light globe on the bottom will not fit in place with a standard light bulb. The globe hits the bottom of the bulb. Same with a standard flourescent bulb. We had to go find a shorter (hence lower wattage) flourescent bulb to fit. Aside from that this is a great ceiling fan. Fairly easy to install too.
