What is the difference between KOA blades & dark walnut blades?

The answer above is not correct, it seems ALL the various blades of this fan are made of balsa and painted including the koa. They are very easily scratched. If you are careful and dont scratch them the Koa is very nice looking with dark and light colors.

can this fan be installed on a slightly sloped ceiling?

According to the instructions, you can install this on a ceiling that is sloped up to 15 degrees. That tidbit is buried in the notes of one step in the installation process and not called out anywhere else. However, the ball mount assembly provided will actually work up to about 30 degrees, it's just that the trim piece will start blocking the rod past the 15 degrees. I had an optional ceiling mount on hand, but opted to cut a notch into the provided trim piece to allow the rod to hang properly from a 26 degree ceiling. There is a circular rubber trim piece, inside the rod hole in the ceiling trim piece that has enough extra material on the inside of the trim to keep it looking fairly decent, even at close visual range. My installation was on a 21' ceiling, so it's pretty difficult to see the modification I made from the main floor. Obviously, you need to plan very carefully if you're going to take this approach. I'll post a few pictures with my review when I get a chance. Also, as another poster noted, there's very little room for the remote receiver module, regardless of the angle of your ceiling. You need to be able to maneuver the wire feeding the fan (coming through the ceiling) out of the way to get the remote receiver to fit properly.

Does the fan come with a down rod?

yes it comes with a 6" downrod but the wires are long enough to use a much longer one if you desire.

Looking at a 60" or 70" for the great room in a new house. These fans are only showing around 250 cfm of air flow. Is that correct?

I can't measure airflow, but I can comment on the aesthetic. We replaced a 60" 5-blade fan with this 60" 3-blade fan. It is so lean that it could've used the extra mass of the additional 5" per blade. It is a great looking fan, super quiet. My regret is not buying the larger model.
