I recently discovered that there is a Habitat Restore not too far from where I work.. I plan to venture over there maybe twice a month, more or less, to keep an eye on what shows up..
I'm going to be posting pictures of all the fans I find there,, if anyone is interested in anything seen,, let me know and I can fetch them and send them your way..
The store itself has a number of fans installed.. 4 Hampton Bay Farmingtons,, and quite a few (maybe 10-15) Dayton/Lasko 4 blade industrials..
The selection for sale has been reasonable so far.. I've already acquired:
~SMC U-52 (rebranded Hampton Bay,, model Harbor Light?) ~Emerson Snugger 42" ~Sears GE Vent ~Winnower GE Vent ~Hunter Right-At-Home (spoken for) ~Hunter Fairfield 2 (spoken for) ~Encon ventless hugger ~Generic hugger for parts
Pictures to come soon.. I'll make videos of the fans I get eventually..

Can't wait to see these especially the Sears GE vent! The Sears is probably my favorite so far,, its an awesome piece.. Unfortunately,, the bearings are beyond spoiled.. I don't know if it will even make it through a video.. But I'll get pictures for sure..

First of the pictures:
In the background of the Right at Home you can see the Encon ventless hugger I got today..
Hunter Right At Home in some red color.. Was missing blades and mounting hardware.. Excuse the vertical pictures,, I must have been being reckless with the camera.. There will be no more media of this as it went to Tod:
Hunter FairField 2.. Complete sans mounting hardware and one shade.. I wanted to test this before I sent it out but the opportunity didn't present itself.. There will also be no more media of this one because it too went to Tod..

Pictures of the fans that were there today,, sans the one I bought..
Anyone know the model name of this? Thinking about getting it..
Newer Hunter.. Light kit is interesting.. But the fan is probably cheap..
What is this?
A cheaper Hampton Bay/SMC? Irons are painted..
I believe these are Harbor Breeze Caleras,, 42"..
Newer Hunter
This is the tag on the above fan
This I believe is a newer Hampton Bay Carousel.. It has deeper colored blades on the other side..

I am glad you finally discovered the awesomeness of ReStore Jordan! I would be highly interested in seeing what you have acquired.

I am glad you finally discovered the awesomeness of ReStore Jordan! I would be highly interested in seeing what you have acquired. The first Hampton Bay is the one we discussed the other day.. Is that the one you have in mind?
Picture of the ones I got (and generally more interesting) fans will come tomorrow hopefully..

Yup, went there only just a couple weeks ago, looks like they've already got new stuff too.

Did you get the NIB hugger? I didn't see that there.. They must get more stuff than I thought,, they got 3 or 4 more fans in over a period of a week..

Here are the first two,, and probably most interesting.. Both were featured in Derek's video..
Sears: This thing has notably wide blades and a huge switch housing.. Unfortunately the bearings are horrible,, I'm not even sure it will be usable.. Mounts with a metal ball and socket..

Got these shades.. I quite like them.. For now they are on the Alaska hugger but they will probably go on the Original when I can find a matching center globe..

Winnower:
Blades are not original,, I have the original ones but they were painted at some point.. These are a very close replacement..
Disastrous video:
That's all I have time for now,, more to come soon..

Great Finds!!
I really like the Sears, I have a soft spot for them especially with the history of Sears and the now demise that could be lethal.
That exact one is NIB on Craigslist for $25. I keep kicking the can around of picking it up but then since I got married, between work, church, family, and our puppy I've had no time lol.
