This is the 4 Seasons Galaxy that Jesse gave me just before he moved. I had it for about 3 weeks now. I'm supposed to sell it to Philippe but I like it a lot. I wonder if my sister will like it. Finally a Galaxy with big and long switch housing and 3-speed pull chain. This one have the same switch housing as the one on my Top Mount or Montego but the pulls are one in front of another instead of being offset. It has the kind of ball and socket I don't like that screws on the sides instead at the bottom. The switch cap is in prestin condition considering it already had a light kit in the past. It have stencil on the other side of the blades but It looks odd with the chrome finish so I use the plain side. Anyway one of the blade of the stencil side have a big black scratch. Even the tassels looks odd with a modern finish like chrome. I did a few fixings on it. It was a screw in the ball that was use as the pin, it was making the fan hang crooked and caused more wobble and vibrations sounds so I replace it with one of my homemade/invented sealed pins. Now it hangs straight and its a lot quieter. I also put papers between the motor and brackets like I always do. One of the blade is warped up so its still wobbly on high speed but at least medium and low are totally wobble free now.

I really like that fan, a modern fan in a classic style is always really cool.

That's a really nice fan; I wish they still made spinners like that.

I dunno what it is about chrome, it always just looks so cool! If the gold tassle pulls seem a little out of place, do you think white ones would look better? What Cole said made me think too, it'd be really neat to see company bringing back old styles with new finishes. Modern takes on vintage styles.

We've been talking about that for years with this fan: www.vintageceilingfans.com/leslielockedf-484.htmlThat funky, slimline style has been in for the past few years now, and if you offered that thing in brushed nickel with a fancy wall switch or remote option and maybe some funky light kits it would sell...

this fan could fit perfectlly in a modern decor... everydoby said that! but the tassels are probably a little too much for the modern style... if you want to put it somewhere modern, don't put pullchains! lol

Even though I had it since June 2010, I never made a video of this fan mostly because I didn't expected to keep it. For a short period in late 2010 and early 2011 it was my sister's but it came back to me in June 2011. Here is it in motion:

I'm usually not so much into chrome fans, even though I prefer it over brushed nickel, but in the end I'm glad I kept it and it's from one of my favorite ceiling fan brand.
