That is correct, this is indeed a Meridien.

MOAR! The Hunter Osprey is just as mediocre as I expected... My very first Homestead; I was expecting a silly Universal, not a Whisperfan II.. Oh look, yet ANOTHER antique brass Delta II. I really only picked it up because of the walnut cane blades and the fact that it was FREE [at Habitat] due to the broken flywheel.

Always thought those hunter fans were cool, dont know how they perform though. Congrats on the first homestead, and also will you replace the flywheel on the Casa? Seems like it would be cool in functioning order.

Awesome that you got a Hunter Osprey. How is it mediocre at all? It's weird that it never got popular in the States. In other parts of the world it's a pretty popular fan.
Did it came with a 4-speed control with a round knob?

Did it came with a 4-speed control with a round knob? The Osprey is mediocre because it is comparatively slow (only 252 RPM on high), noisier than most Hunters (noticeable motor hum) and it uses too much plastic (the bottom of the motor is such). As far as all-around performance is concerned, it's probably similar to that of a 56" Envirofan Silver Line.. in other words, mehhh. The fan actually included a 3-speed non-round knob control that's actually rated for 2 amps, meaning it's compatible with Originals.

Those Ospreys look very "European"... probably because Hunter sold them in their 220v line overseas before it came here as a 120v domestic model.

Ah well it then makes it more appropriate to use in a house if it doesn't do too crazy speeds. Like a Silver Line? That's really not bad, it's actually good. I thought these would have came with this control: www.hunter-ceiling-fans.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/hunter_wall_remote_model_27180.jpgWhat does the medium and low speed looks like with the Hunter Original controller? Did you tried a lower amperage control?

Meh plastic makes me less impressed with the Osprey. Still kinda neat for how comparatively uncommon they are in the US though, in the box is great.
Mmm CANE!
