Fan and light combination work great, fan is pretty quiet. After two years of use I started noticing that the finish was rusting. The Representative from Broan said I could replace the outer fixture for $94. Broan rep said that the reason for the rust was because I was not leaving the fan on long enough after showering. Funny thing though I boutght cheap towel bars that match the chrome finish on the fan/vent and they have not started rusting...

This thing is a terrible exhaust fan. It was rusted within 6 months. It's now covered in rust after a year. I bought it from Home Depot and it had some poor reviews on their site, but I figured with my tiny bathroom, it should do the job. I was very wrong! I actually came across this because I'm on here shopping for a new one! Skip the style and invest in performance.Best Deals for Broan 757SN Bathroom Ceiling Fan/Light with Frosted-Glass Shade
This is an attractive ceiling fan to use in a bathroom. It's not too loud and the light is bright enough to enable one to see in the bathroom. I like the modern design. The guys who helped put it in (as we had to have a hole cut in the bathroom ceiling and wiring put in) had only seen the more clunkier plastic housing fan/lights. They were surprised to see a fan/light that did the same thing, but also looked really attractive. Obviously, this isn't sold at all the big box hardware stores. It also arrived very quickly.I read reviews about sound and some said that you didn't want the bathroom fan to be so quiet you can't remember to turn it off. This fan is loud enough that you'll remember to turn it off, but not incredibly loud and actually sometimes does fade into the background. Highly recommended.
Honest reviews on Broan 757SN Bathroom Ceiling Fan/Light with Frosted-Glass Shade
As I've said in my previous reviews, I don't have a lot of previous experience in home renovations. Before purchasing this item I did a lot of research in installing new and replacing existing ceiling fan exhaust systems. I also spent a few hours in the attic mapping and planning the exhaust and the placement of the unit. My house had no existing unit, so this was a completely new installation. After figuring I would just connect it directly to the current kitchen installation exhausting (with a damper to prevent backwash), I drilled a pilot hole into the bathroom ceiling and checked the attic. The hole was off my 6 inches from the nearest mounting stud. This was perfect since it meant the light would be almost directly center in the room between the wall and the shower. After mapping, the cutting, and mounting took about 3-4 hours. Running the exhaust was another 2-3 hours. I paid a licensed electrician to run the wires and hook the unit up with this switch Intermatic EI210W Electronic Auto-Off Timer 10/20/30/60 Minutes, White.The unit is quiet, and it is barely noticeable above the running water. It is, however, loud enough to cover or at least mask bodily excretion sounds. The instructions were very good and detailed. The only tools I used were this Milwaukee 48-22-0304 Drywall-Plaster Rasping Jab Saw, 6-Inches, and miscellaneous screwdrivers and a drill.
The unit does require candelabra lights and the frosted glass sits in the outer mesh holder. This makes it a little harder to remove and change the lights (three hands are needed, or slow patience). Other than that, I am very satisfied with this unit.

The fixture is nicely finished, and looks great and seems sturdy so far.Advantage: The light and fan both plug into separate regular plugs inside the fixture which is great because you can feed them from separate circuits (my light is on dimmer, fan is on a different circuit with a regular switch).
Disadvantages: The fan is a little loud, and the light uses small-base candelabra bulbs.
Overall I'm pleased with this fixture.
