Honeywell Ceiling Fans Palm Island Tropical 52 Inch Ceiling Fan, Outdoor Ceiling Fan with Pull Chain, Tri-Mount 5 Palm Leaf Blade Design, ETL Wet Rated, White (50200-01)

This is a very nice fan, well packed, very quiet motor, spare bolts and washers and very good instructions. But as with all things, nothing is completely perfect. I bought two fans, one actually was perfect, the other had 3-6 marks on every blade (see photo). The marks bothered me so I contacted Amazon and they quickly sent me a replacement…every blade on the replacement fan had one small mark, maybe 1/16" (but I’m going to stick with this one as the marks are hardly noticeable).You might think, “hey, I’ll order 2-3 fans and just pick out the best blades”. Wrong, I weighed the blades and they were up to .25oz different; all the blades in a set weigh the same but the weight from set to set are different. Just for the heck of it, I tried one blade from a different set and got a lot of high speed wobble.PS…the blades have two usable sides; one looks like a palm frawn, the other looks like Rattan (see photo). Because of the weave pattern of the Rattan side, any defects are virtually invisible.Now for the elephant in the room based on other reviews; does this fan move much air? Yes and No. In my case, the fans are mounted outside on the lanai ceiling which is 8’ off the ground. They are mounted with the standard included 4” drop rod. At the highest two speeds, these fan moves a decent volume of air but the pattern of the air flow is different from most fans. Maybe because of the big frond leaf fan blades, the air is thrown down but also out in a wider circle 6-8 feet from the center and not just straight down as many fans do. I suspect that because of this wider circle, the air doesn't feel as forceful as if it were blowing straight down on you.The installation of the fan, lifting it onto the hanging bracket looks like it will be tough with the 4” downrod and tight canopy fit, but it is actually surprisingly simple and easily fits right into place. The fan while operating and the motor itself…whisper quiet and virtually no wobble at the highest speed.Here are some tips to make your installation go more smoothly:1. There is not a standard ceiling hanger canopy diameter for fans so if you are replacing a fan with a wider diameter cover, you might have some ceiling patching and or painting to do before you hang the new fan that may have a smaller diameter cover. Hold the canopy up to the ceiling and see how things look before you start taking down the old fan.2. If you are replacing a fan and have newer construction with a red, white, blue, black and ground wire, use you phone and take a photo of the connections so you can duplicate them with the Honeywell fan (in other words, their included instructions of tying the blue and black together may not apply)(see photo)3. The Styrofoam packaging which has channels for the fan top and bottom allow you to use the packaging to hold the fan with the hanger side facing up to you so you can attach the down rod and canopies without the fan rolling around the table.4. Loosen the five orange plastic fan motor securing tabs before you hang the fan…it will make it a little easier to get them off when the time comes.5. THE MOST IMPORTANT tip…it will be darn near impossible to attach the blades without a helper if you don’t do this. Attaching the blade requires that you put a rubber blade insulator between the blade hanger and the fan blade, then hold the blade and insulator in place above your head while putting the bolts through the blade assembly into the motor…not possible with only two hands standing on a ladder. So, take some blue tac (not very much)…and use a little under the rubber insulator to hold it in place…maybe two small dabs…and take a little more and make a very thin rope and rap it around the head of the bolt and press it into place in the fan blade assembly. Now with the blue tac holding the insulator and the bolts in place, you can hold the fan in place with one hand and use your screwdriver to secure it onto the motor.Conclusion:This is a good looking fan (see photo) that appears to be made to withstand under cover outdoor use. You get a palm and a rattan blade option and the fan is virtually silent when operating. If you are looking for a hurricane force down draft directly under the 52” diameter of the fan, don’t buy it. If you can be happy with a nice downdraft at a 72” diameter…there is a good chance you will like this fan. I would buy this fan again.

Love this ceiling fan! Easy to install and looks great in our outdoor gazebo. The chain isn’t very long so had to buy a different one so I could reach it. Love the beach feel of the blades.

Nice and quiet. Looks good, I’m happy

Nice fan. Happy with it

Easy to install (with the exception of the blade screws being a little short, so it was a bit tough to reach up and make sure they stayed in and attached to the screwdriver). The quality is great especially for outdoors. The colors are very vibrant and nice. The fan is not noisy at all and provides a great breeze. The blades are heavy duty plastic but really do look like wicker.

I bought two. They were for my patio. Not a fan of the open top of the light globe. The first one went up fine. It looks great.The second one globe was broken it the box plus it wobbled went on 2nd speed. I returned it and am now waiting the electrician to install the replacement

Great fans for a patio.

Very impressed with these fans. Bought 2. The price is great! I also like the design. There are different designs on either side to choose from. One is wicker the other a swirl. They are powerful enough to keep us cool.
