Some of the users commented that the workmanship of this ceiling fan can be faulty at times. For instance, some of the motors are not properly installed preventing the blades from moving. It is clearly a malfunction issue. Some have reviewed that the remote control of the fan has stopped working after a few weeks. You can fix it by reading our article on Harbor Breeze Ceiling Fan Remote Trouble Shooting Guide and taking watch the video below. It shows that you have to re-learn your remote to the fan receiver by following the learning procedure. The video in the section Harbor Breeze Fairwind Remote Control Troubleshooting below will help you in this process.
The Harbor Breeze Fairwind 60 inch ceiling fan does not come with a pull chain so you will have to use the remote in order to change the speed of the fan and turn it on or off.
If you do not want to use the remote control and receiver then you need to set up two wall switches with your fan, one for the fan and the other for the light.
The LED bulb cannot be replaced with a minimum lifespan of 5 years. I am not confident about you but I would prefer a ceiling fan that can last more than 5 years.
The best part that we found about it is that the Fairwind ceiling fan has a very modern slender look and can be suitable for most settings. It generates a good airflow and the installation is very easy compared to many other ceiling fans.
Another nice aspect of the fan is that you can use a longer downrod if you have higher ceilings for installation. You will have to buy the longer downrod separately. We also liked the indoor as well as outdoor rating of the unit that allows you to use it outdoor settings such as patio.
