From what fan the blades on the Emerson Amphora comes from?
At first I did not have noticed the difference with the Fasco blades. Hehe! Theses actually look better than the original ones.
The black and wood Casablanca Delta is beautiful.
I like how you seem to always use appopriate light bulbs for the light kit and shades on your fans and not oversize light bulbs or ugly fluorecent bulbs.

IDK what the blades are from, they were on a shelf at Habitat and I thought the spacing looked like Emerson so I grabbed them. Turns out they match the wood in the room almost exactly.
LOL, it's not much different other than the high gloss but any amount of weight I can take off the flywheel is a bonus. I'd do four blades if it didn't look stupid to me that way.
Well thanks for taking note. I'm one of those people who takes time to think about the glass if I possibly can, like the Amphora I don't have much of a choice on since I don't have a variety of bowls, but the FASCO glass for example is NIB Craftmade that really suits well, and I have a good size collection of all kinds of bulbs to make sure it's the right kind of light as well as the right amount.

Was there anything wrong with the Costal Breeze Plus?
Also what'd you do with the Westminster ;D

The Westminster is downstairs in my basement in a box.
The Coastal Breeze Plus was kind of noisy and the switch housing was loose. I won the Emerson Midway DC Eco in a contest from Hansen Wholesale, telling them how I conserve energy in my home. The Emerson moves a lot more air due to the Gossamer blades (sounds like a helicopter at speed six) and is wobble-free. Plus it looks better and cleaner.

Thats neat you won it! I was at first shocked that you guys didn't get another Casablanca once I saw what the price of these go for.. But now it makes sense  |

The DC Eco actually moves an excellent amount of air on speeds 4-6. I just thought I'd try and enter, and didn't expect to win! We probably wouldn't have replaced the CB if I wouldn't have won this fan. I told my parents they could have it just so I wouldn't be wasting a great fan by hanging it in my basement where it wouldn't be hooked up. And it fits the room perfectly!

I put my 1999 White Original back in my room as I needed the IT control for my Saturn. I also took down the Georgian in the laundry room.  |
