We replaced some junky wall lanterns that had been on our house forever. These are beautiful (just as pictured) and they mount solidly to the wall. The capped bolts that you see on the outside (left and right of light) are included, but they expect you to use the electrical box bolts from your old lights. Well, ours were too rusted to be reliable. I had tons of bolts, but not the right size! Grrrr. So this added a trip to the hardware store for me.

We mounted these by our main entrance, and the smaller model (8037-71: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002X802A/) on either side of our garage. Experience so far is that they stay much cleaner than enclosed lights.

These were installed in our home in 2005. I only purchase SOLID brass. Just having polished brass eventually looks like garbage, and unfortunately, these do look like garbage and started tarnishing in 2006. I used a quality polish that is specifically for brass. These are NOT SOLID brass. Shame on Sea Gull Lighting for continuing to advertise as such. I tried having mine refunded, but since a builder installed them, Sea Gull said I have to go through the builder. In fact, at the time, Sea Gull also said these were not available to the general public.

Bottom line, don't purchase Sea Gull if you want a quality solid brass.

First this light can handle a 100 Watt standard base incandescent bulb which is painfully rare these days. Usually the fixtures these days can handle only 60 watts if you are lucky and 40 watt limits are becoming the new normal. A 40 Watt fixture is nothing but a plaything in my bathroom since I need bright light due to my diabetes. This light have two bulbs each of which can be 100 watts offering ample light. I brought two of them so I can have one of these lights over each of two sinks in my new bathroom. The fixture is self is well built with quality steel that is NOT paper thin. The design of this light is very well thought out. The shades are thick glass not the painfully thin brittle Made in China glass junk being sold today. The metal is carefully crafted so their are no jagged unfinished edges to cut yourself on. The light installs easily with little effort. The installation of this light was so straightforward that I did not need instructions. The two bulb light is most expensive because one light is usually not enough light, the three light version is likely too overpowering for most applications. The two light version is more expensive because; it is the best seller. Hey capitalism at work.

All things considered this is a most excellent lighting fixture for a basement, man cave, bathroom, bedroom or hallway. The shades are beautiful linen glass with clear accents at the top. The glass has some weird imperfections buy just add to the unique awesome nature of the lights. The electrical wires are nice and thick. I can find no flaw with this light so it earns five stars from me. I would buy this light again in a heartbeat since their quality is a refreshing change from the junk lighting products I usually see.

Very good looking. Easy to install. The glass shade give very good light transmission to brighten the room without using high wattage lightbulb. I also bought the 3-light set for the main bathroom.

We're using this to control the reading light and television in our six-year-old daughters' room. Our first inclination was to purchase a cheap outlet timer to turn the "forbidden devices" off at bedtime, but reality prevented us from doing so. On non-school-nights, we try to be flexible with her reading time; when she's sick, we'll give her extended TV time to encourage her to rest in bed longer. It became obvious we wanted control over them without having to enter the room (not to mention that she's on the second floor and we're typically downstairs when she goes to read...yes, sad to say, laziness is part of the lure of this device).

It would get a perfect score except for the price. The remote is simply amazing, but suffers from the same disease -the "some Americans will always equate 'best' with 'most expensive'" syndrome. The limitation here is that we would buy many more dimmers if not for the cost.

I still recommend it if you don't mind parting with some serious money.

The light is bright and has great color accuracy. Installation is a bit tricky if you hard-wire them since not all of the knock-outs are usable; the inside of this tiny fixture is quite full already. They are ugly, but I hid them inside of hardwood boxes tacked to the underside of my kitchen cabinets. They are very energy efficient, but you can't dim them. The price is great on Amazon.

This is a good product that delivers what it promises. Even at lower speeds, there is considerable air circulation in a 200 sq. ft. room.

The fan is solidly constructed with quality metal parts throughout. It feels substantial.

Trouble started when it came to installing the blades. The compact nature of the fan requires you to mount the fan blades only after installing the main body to the ceiling. So have to be some sort of acrobat to get underneath it, hold the blade with the balancing weight so that the pre-drilled screw holes are aligned -after sliding both peices in from the side, not the bottom. Then you have to hold the blade and weight steady in one hand while simultaneously screwing in the screw the driver/drill upside-down with the other hand. I had to go away from the directions and improvise. And you have to do this 3 times (one time for each blade)!

I've installed dozens of ceiling fans and this one was going swimmingly up until the blade installation. I would say on average, I can install a larger fan in about 30 minutes--45 minutes on the high side. This took about 2 hours after finally landing on an improvised routine to get the blades in.

When you have a room where a conventional ceiling fan doesn't fit, this is good substitute.

When you're directly underneath, the airflow is very good. However, when you aren't, the breeze isn't nearly as noticable. For a large room, I wouldn't bother.

The fan is small enough to fit in a hallway; we ended up mounting ours in close proximity to our hanging pot rack (there was no other fan that would make both usable at the same time) and we were pleased.

Installation was a bit of a pain: the wires leading from the motor were about eight feet long and had to be cut. The manual indicated that I should be able to mount the top and have the rest on the ground with wires hanging down and have room to work, but that's a dream. Plus I had to trim the wires to get them to fit in the casing. Another obvious con is that the instructions weren't written well at all, which is surprising because Monte Carlo is a great company. Lots of pictures do not make for clear directions.

The fan is almost directly over our kitchen table, and when leaves were taken out to seat eight, everyone felt a nice breeze.

The fan is quiet too -even on the highest setting. I was worried that the light kit wouldn't be bright enough (read: candelabra bulbs) as I use fluorescents whenever I can, but I didn't have any issues at all. I'm really pleased with this fan.

The bottom line is when the situation calls for it, this fan is excellent. It would be great in a bathroom or a wide hallway, but if another fan will work, don't pick this one up.

Incidently, we got ours from Lowe's for $70, and it included the light kit.

I purchased this fan to go in my bathroom during a recent remodel. My contractor thought I was nuts to try and fit a ceiling fan into my small bathroom (approx. 10 ft by 10ft). However, after he installed it he kept going on and on about how perfect it was for the space. This was one of my favorite updates during this remodel.

The size is just perfect for a small space. I was worried that it would just fill the space and dominate the room, but it doesn't at all. Do not hesitate to get this fan. FYI, there is an option that is not listed in the details to install the fan with no downrod whatsoever. I went with that option and it is perfect for my 8 ft ceiling.

Honest reviews on Monte Carlo 3TF24WH Micro 24, 24-Inch 3-Blade, Ceiling Fan, Damp

I bought this same with an included light kit at Lowes for about $130 I think. I have a very small galley type kitchen and with a regular fan every time I opened my cabinet it hit the fan blades.. Uuugh. So this little midget fan was perfect for the space.

I already had a fan hooked up, so it was very simple to take the old fan down and replace it with this one. The directions probably aren't the best but I had already watched a youtube video concering how to replace a fan so it was actually pretty easy. you can hang the fan on the bracket before actually connecting all the wires so you don't need to have anyone holding the fan or helping. The wires are long so you'll need to trim them down a lot unless for some reason you need like 8 foot worth of wires.

The air output on this was pretty surprising to me. It gives a lot of air for its size. I have to turn it down to low when I cook otherwise it sometimes blows out one of the burners on my gas stove but the air will mostly move straight down in a pretty small area. Obviously a larger fan will likely give you a better airflow over a larger area but if you have a small space, hallway, or size limitations due to cabinets etc, like I did, then this may be perfect for you. (I do suggest going with a lighting kit though)

PRO's: size fit in my small kitchen and it really moves the air, quiet

CON's: very poor installation instructions, very difficult to assemble, finally gave up trying to balance the fan so it didn't wobble

CAUTION's: you might want to check the electrical box if you plan to install it in an existing fixture. My vintage condo had a small pancake box which necesitated about $200 worth of electrical work. I bought this with a Monte Carlo light kit, and between the purchase cost and installation problems with it and the fan, I ended up with a $572.81 fan and light. In spite of it all, I'm glad I have it and recommended it to a neighbor of mine

It is very heavy. I like it except that I expected it to be more yellow/orange/burnt orange like the picture shows.

It is actually white/pale yellow.

And...how do I know that it is actually producing negative ions?

Basically, an interesting different addition to the house.

This light is perfect IF you have a huge bathroom. I love it. The globes are heavy and just what I wanted. The metal is heavy and looks great. Even though I asked and got answers to my questions about size, it is just impossible to "see" it without seeing it in person. We have the 5 x 8 bathroom and this is enormous, probably twice the size of our existing one. If I could figure out how to add a pic to show some perspective I would do that, in the meanwhile if you are interested it might be worth it to make a "box" of sorts of the measurements and hold it up to the area it will be used, unless you have one of todays LARGE bathrooms. Sadly I will have to return it :(
