Ok, fughettabout comparing this fan with a Home Depot ceiling fan. Not even in the same category! This ceiling fan rocks!
I can't even put this fan on high without blowing last month's deferred dusting into the ambient air. It's a whole different world from my prior ceiling fan. I can't imagine I'll be wanting for additional airflow from my ceiling fan in the foreseeable future.
This fan is so totally more than I even conceived to expect from a ceiling fan.
I work in my home office three and a half days out of five weekdays on average. It gets uncomfortably hot fairly often during the summer months and also into the fall. I have an air conditioner for when things get extreme, but that's only 15 or 20 days a year. On warm days I had been depending upon a box fan to bring outside air into my office (with several computers/servers and displays each contributing their own heat) to bring down the ambient temperature and a hampton bay (home depot) cheapie ceiling fan to maintain a comfortable working environment.
That wasn't cutting it lately so I was looking for an upgrade on the ceiling fan side. I found this fan fairly highly rated and figured I needed to spend more given the shortcomings of my home depot cheapie fan. That fan was kind of quiet on high-speed, but really buzz-buzz-buzz on medium or low (had to pull a chain for that by the way). That got to be a distinct irritation on in-between days and I could tell I was in "you-get-what-you-pay-for" territory.
I decided to explore the high-end and man I am not looking back.
This Casablanca fan is totally quiet on every speed (and roughly five times the airflow on each setting). My first hint was that the motor weighs about four times more than the Home Depot model. Pretty sure that contributes to the quiet operation. Not sure about all the electrics involved, but I'm pretty sure there's a lot more copper (windings) on the internals.
I will be comfortable in my home office earning hundreds of times more than the cost of this fan over its useful life. If I was a resentful type of guy I would resent having spent the few tens of dollars on a cheapie fan to learn I should just go with a real solution to my home office hot-day air circulation problem. But I'm not the resentful type. I'm grateful to Casablanca for teaching me how great a well-engineered and well-manufactured ceiling fan can be and also grateful to Home Depot for teaching me how much of a compromise the easily affordable alternative is. The Home Depot version is on its way to Goodwill.
