Best Juno Lighting T809WH Trac-Master Slants Low Voltage MR16 Step Deals
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $211.95
Sale Price: $82.40
Today's Bonus: 61% Off

I started with Juno TracMaster line voltage tracks in our living room and soon discovered that the fixtures make a huge difference in the resultant lighting in a room. We were trying to correct a very poor lighting situation, and the tracks gave us more flexibility, but it took a few tries to learn that we needed to choose the fixtures carefully for the situation. The T809 fixtures with cleverly disguised step-down transformers to light 12-volt halogen lamps solved a tricky problem of putting just enough light on our museum-glazed color photographs without harsh glare or over-lighting of the surroundings. We are still looking for a comparable improvement in throwing ambient light on the cathedral ceiling without "hot spots" or dark shadows.

Best Vaxcel Lighting TL-OWD070 Taliesin 1 Light Outdoor Wall Sconce Deals
I purchased the ceiling model of this series several months ago. I liked it so much, that I purchased the wall version to match. Nice quality up close and very easy to install. Both lights make my front porch "shine."

I purchased this model to replace an old ceiling fan in the master bedroom that had its motor burn out after 20+ years of operation. It was relatively easy to install, but did represent a bit of a challenge to install on a vaulted ceiling & at an angle because of the size & weight.........nothing that can't be overcome, but it is helpful to have a second person available to hold or steady the unit on the ladder while making the electrical connections. Directions are easy to follow & installation can be completed in an afternoon. It is a beautiful fan & is extremely quiet in operation, probably the overriding reason to purchase a Hunter fan such as this. The price on Amazon was far more reasonable than any retail store location that I could identify.
We first bought two fans together at Lowe's (Hampton Bay I think?) for a bedroom and a sleeping porch and I was totally dismayed at how terrible their installation was designed. They depended on the small base cover -which is almost the size of the electrical box/mount in the ceiling itself -mounting flush on the ceiling to keep them from wobbling, rather than the way these Hunter fans mount: with a wide substantial bracket spanning the box mount and screwing down hard to the ceiling over the box. That way, the cover is merely decorative, and the fan is securely fastened to a hearty bracket that will not move.
This model has the most sturdy mount of any of the 3 models of fans I've tried out in our house to this point. And as a result, this fan is the most quiet, wobble-free fan that I've found yet. It's a few bucks more than the models we found at Lowe's and on Amazon (second was a Westinghouse I think), but it is totally worth the expense in the feel of quality and the strength of the mount.
After installing 3 different other models that all started wobbling on "high" moments after installation, this baby silently started blowing papers and all other loose materials all over our sleeping porch when I installed it the first time and put it on high, without so much as a wiggle in the fan. And zero noise. (That was the 44" white model, this 52" model went up in our living room two weeks ago after that great experience.) Pardon the pun, but we were blown away by how silent and smooth the operation was. The 44" has been up for a few months and it's as quiet as day one, and I assume the 52" model will be the same in six months and years to come.
My only gripe would be the same as at least one other reviewer: the 3" brass screws for mounting the master bracket to the ceiling are super soft and will almost certainly bend before you get them flush into the bracket. Both times I installed one of these, I drilled the pilot holes and the screws still bent about halfway in and then started to strip. After getting them out, I grabbed 2" metal screws from the basement and used those instead. Part of the problem may be with the recommended bit size for the pilot holes -you could try upping the bit size to the next larger size and see if that helps.
Also, if you're looking at the add-on remotes by other manufacturers, the "Universal Ceiling Fan Remote Control Kit" (which appears to be 3rd party but it's actually manufactured by Hampton Bay) worked with this fan no problem. Fits right in the base cover.
Highly recommend this fan, and looking at getting 3 more to replace the other three shite fans we got from the big boxes.

I have 6 Hunter fans in my home from building it 8 years ago. Recently I added 2 upstairs rooms and tried to find Hunter fans that take 4 60 watt standard base bulbs. GOOD LUCK! THESE FANS SUCK! The 4 40 watt bulbs barely put off any light. I like my rooms bright not like I'm living in the 1800's and the fan speed sucks. On these fans high speed is equal to my old Hunter fans second speed. and forget about using slow speed you might as well have your dog panting in the room it will produce more airflow!Best Deals for Hunter 20183 52 Inch Studio Series Ceiling Fan Brushed Nickel
This is the 4th ceiling fan I've purchased in the last few months for the renovation of our 1920's DC rowhouse, and I only wish I had decided on this model sooner -it would have saved me a lot of time and hassle and money on buying a few different and usually cheaper models that have not worked out nearly as well.We first bought two fans together at Lowe's (Hampton Bay I think?) for a bedroom and a sleeping porch and I was totally dismayed at how terrible their installation was designed.

Honest reviews on Hunter 20183 52 Inch Studio Series Ceiling Fan Brushed Nickel
I'd give this product five stars if it still worked after 5 months. The pull chain for toggling the lights was cheaply made. Its nice to leave the fan going on hot nights but obviously you want the light off to sleep. Well that's not an issue anymore after one day the pull chain just stopped working altogether. Now I'm REALLY saving energy but I guess I'll need to fix this which is pretty inconvenient. For how durable everything about this is, its disappointing that they made the pull chain so cheap.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Hunter 20183 52 Inch Studio Series Ceiling Fan Brushed Nickel
Love the finish and the quietness. The only bad thing was the assembly came in alot of pieces but not hard to installFriday, January 3, 2014

Purchased this hood about 3 years ago. Initially it was very quiet and lived up to my expectations but within 6 months it started to make a god awful annoying growling noise. More noise than a busted chain saw. Replaced the motor twice and within 6 months the noise returned. Scanning the web I see many people with the same problem and they indicate that Nutone will not provide any relief. Stay away from this product.
I put in 2 micro CFL bulbs for the lights a little tight but man the light output on my cooktop is awesome!
the one problem i had with it was the smell of the black paint. left a fishy smell odor.
i could not figure out what that was at first untill i smelt the range hood itself. (funny)
all in all it preforms fine.

We purchased this to replace an old, very noisy, Ventline range hood. The Broan was easy to install; fan is very quiet and has multiple speeds ranging from very low to very high that work well at eliminating cooking odors from inside the house; the light has a low and high setting (2 A-15 appliance lamps not included) and provides plenty of light for cooking. We would highly recommend this to anyone wishing to replace their old noisy range hood with a new quiet model!Best Deals for Broan QT242BL Under Cabinet Range Hood, Black, 42-Inch
Got this as a replacement for the original I had in my home. It is OK but noisy at higher speeds. For the price it works out.Honest reviews on Broan QT242BL Under Cabinet Range Hood, Black, 42-Inch
Really nice looking range hood and installed very easily. Based on some of the other reviews about the motor making a loud noise after 6 months or so... I looked it over and found that there could be some potential for vibration/rattles from the vertical vent cutouts. I'm not sure if the other reviewers had an actual motor issue or possibly just a rattle when it was on. I chose to vent mine back into the room (Need a charcoal filter not included) and placed a few strips of duck tape across the cutouts on the top of the hood. It created a nice seal and also a barrier between the metal hood and underside of the cabinet. So far I think it is very quiet and works very well.I put in 2 micro CFL bulbs for the lights a little tight but man the light output on my cooktop is awesome!

Review of Cal Lighting BO-234TB-RU Soho Table Lamp, Rust
A five star but both shades were heavily damaged. :( Very poorly packed. Disappointing for sure. Decent lamps, too bad the packaging was so poorly done.Heavy, good quality & looks good and I would recommend this to anyone in need of a lamp this style/colour
