Fine, I'll take a picture of it and post it. I mean they cant all use the same motor. I believe it SAYS that.

I just got a copy!
Holy crap man, there's like 3 fans there that have bent, sagging blades/brackets. When I first walked in, there's a Hunter Mariner that has blades that literally point towards the floor. There's an "Antigua" (with the leaf blades) that gives the impression that the blades are too heavy and the brackets are too cheap because it doesn't look much better than the Mariner. Speaking of sagging blades, the Huntington III on page 5 is starting to sag already. The "Bay Island" looks like it's completely made out of wood. There's a "Leland" at the HD with the spotlights that's all mangled up and twisted all around, not to mention that it's ugly... The Redington IV looks horrible with the spotlight kit. How come they have never got a new picture of the Minuet II? The model shown is years old, it's the original design. The Nassau chain is only bulging out like that because there's a little hook on the light kit to keep the chain in that place. The 52" Hunter Stratford II looks a lot like a 42" to me. Does the Archive Original have spacers between the blades and the brackets?

yeah i picked up one of these catalogs today. the styles are getting weirder every year. to me, hampton bays seem slightly underpowered. they dont move as much air or go as fast as they could. i liked hampton bay better back 10 years ago. better lookin fans compared to todays lineup. hey, whats the word on those 70 dollar hunter silent breezes at lowes? they look decent to me.

I totally agree with you...That Hunter you speak of is one of the only fans made today that I would even consider purchasing. Unfortunately, it's only offered in white.

you think i should go for it? I don't believe the mariner has changed much since it was introduced in the late 90s.

The silent breeze sold at lowes today is a piece of crap. They used to be similar to hunter coastal breezes in construction.

i liked hampton bay better back 10 years ago. You were alive 10 years ago? Those 70 dollar Hunters are decent but they're kind of underpowered compared to some of the betters tuff Hunter makes right now, which is not all that more expensive. And dont forget Marleys are now $150

The Augusta III is basically a 52" version of the coastal breeze plus. They're about standard, but not too bad.
