Ceiling Fans Carmel, 48 Inch Contemporary Indoor LED Ceiling Fan with Light, Remote Control, Dual Mounting Options, Dual Finish Blades, Reversible Motor - 50197-01 (Bronze)

Good: Clean, attractive, contemporary look. Reversible blades look good on both sides. Quiet; barely audible even in a quiet room. Well-balanced out of the box; a tiny wobble on high speed, nothing at all on low or medium. Relatively easy to install, with one caveat (see below). I thought the remote control frivolous, but it turns out that the lack of pull-chains is nice. (And hardwired switch-box controls are surprisingly hard to find and to make work well.) LED bulbs and remote batteries included. ETL listed and lifetime warranty. Bad: $65 premium for the pewter finish, no idea why. Makes this fan rather expensive for what you get. The wireless receiver / motor control sits in a slot in the mounting bracket, which is fine unless your electrical box is shallow and/or crowded (mine is both,) in which case the receiver box BARELY leaves room for the power connections. Extending the bracket another inch, or widening the canopy a little to let the receiver sit to one side of the bracket, would have made installation a breeze. As it was, I had to do some serious juggling to get everything to fit. Ugly: Once installed and powered up, every fan and light function can be controlled with the remote. Except one. For reasons which still mystify me, reversing the fan direction involves not only a physical switch on the fan, but a switch *behind the lamp cover*. Now, granted, most people reverse the fan only twice per year, if at all. But if you do, you get to go up a ladder and remove and replace a rather awkward and delicate glass globe to throw that switch. I'd put the over/under on the glass slipping out of my hands and taking a seven-foot plunge during one of these switchovers at about five years. I'm not an engineer, but I see no excuse at all for this. At least one of the eight remote control buttons is frivolous (and i could argue two more;) was it really *that* difficult to add that function to the remote? Would have simplified the lamp wiring quite a bit too. Bottom line: Aside from the above, I'm impressed with this fan. Looks good, performs well, looks like it'll continue to do so for a long time. But I'm not going to reverse the fan unless I absolutely have to. Five stars, but it was a very close thing; the high price and that hidden reverse switch very nearly cost it that fifth star.

I purchased this ceiling fan for my son's bedroom. It is an excellent size for an average size bedroom. I like that the fan is compact to the ceiling, so it can be effective in rooms with 8 ft ceilings. It is very quiet while running and can really move some air. The breeze and home features are nice to have, but rarely used. I like that the light is dimmable (just hold the light button on the remote and the light will cycle from dim to bright, just let go of the button when you hit the desired level). Installation is a breeze and fairly straightforward (keeping in mind I have installed 5 ceiling fans with remotes previously). The main headache with installing fans that have remotes is getting the receiver unit all tucked away inside the fan body as there is usually very little room for the unit and the connected wires. This fan was one of the easiest in that regard and I had it installed in about 45 minutes. My only minor gripe lies with the remote. It is fully functioned allowing you to control all aspects of the fan, however the light on / light off button is the same size and shape as all the other buttons and can be hard to locate with your finger when entering the dark room and wanting to turn on the light. If that button were raised slightly, or had some different texturing it would be easier to locate the button when needed. Again, a minor gripe for what is overall an excellent and great looking fan.

The Honeywell Carmel 48” Ceiling Fan looks beautiful in our space, but I’ll admit the installation was more complicated than we expected — there were definitely a lot of parts to sort through. That said, once we got it put together, we could tell how well thought out the design is. The fan runs quietly, the airflow is great, and the remote is super convenient. One thing I really appreciate is that it came with warm LED lights, which can be surprisingly hard to find. Overall, despite the tricky installation, it’s a stylish, functional fan that we’re happy with.

Fan was installed by a qualified electrician and looks great in the bedroom. A major drawback is the remote. No matter what the electrician tried, it would not operate correctly. A call to customer service was frustrating. They insisted on talking directly to the electrician which required another visit to the house. Finally customer service was satisfied with his answers and agreed to send us a replacement remote and receiver. Having doubts about the replacement receiver working properly, we ordered a universal fan remote and receiver from Amazon for $14.14 dollars. Electrician installed it and now the fan/light works perfectly. Plus, the universal remote is much easier to use and better quality than the original that came with the fan. The fan is made well and looks great. The receiver and remote are garbage.

Looks great, fan is quiet but lots of power. It is 48" but provides lots of air movement. The remote is easy to operate and provides good options. No instructions in box for operation of remote but the pictures are very helpful that are on the remote.

El ventilador funciona muy bien, tiene bajo nivel de ruido, el control remoto cumple con todas sus funciones a la primera, el nivel de iluminación con los focos incluidos es bueno, el flujo de aire en los 3 niveles es el adecuado, al girar aún en la velocidad más alta prácticamente no tiene nada de balanceo, tiene muy buena apariencia y su precio es muy razonable. Solo es un poco tardada la instalación pero todo lo demás muy bien

Costo un poquito la instalación debido a que el tubo de separación entre el techo y el ventilador es muy corto, pero se pudo y funciona muy bien , sin hacer ruido.

I really like the look of it, clean design, discreet yet powerful with long blades. Install wasn't bad at all but this wasn't my first ceiling fan and I have background in this type of work so it took me a little over 45 minutes start to finish. I installed it over the staircase so I wasn't too concerned about the noise levels but I can say that this fan is very quiet compared to other ones that I've installed in the past. It's been about two months with it and I'm very happy with the purchase.

Nice design fits well into room Décor. Two tone blades allow to select two options for colour. Remote works well and is a nice added feature. Frosted glass bowl light cover is white but still allows for a lot of light to shine through. Very quiet on two lower speeds with only fan blade cutting wind noise on highest speed. Only negative comment that I have is that the direction switch is located under the glass bowl light cover and requires you to remove the glass bowl twice a year to change fan direction (summer winter). I find it very inconvenient, too bad they didn't incorporate this into one of the remote's functions. Overall very satisfied with product.
