I found 6 Casablanca Zephyrs in the dumpster ;D. What a shame someone threw them away . I did move some bags to make sure that is all and that is all. What do I do to them? I will test all of them to the basement before I can decide.

Ok, so I tested all 6, and they all seem to be working good. 1 of these will definitely replace the Hampton Bay Littleton. What should I do to other 5?

They are variable speed 4 bladed polished brass. I bet whoever threw them away replaced them with cheap ceiling fans. Yes, they came with mounting bracket and blades. I would have taken pictures but I don't have a cord to connect from camera to computer.

Yes, they are slumber quiet. They blow lots of air. I just took down the Littleton, and will install the Zephyr soon, then hang the littleton in the basement and destroy it. It gives low airflow and Zephyr is much better.

I already commented that I don't have a cord that connects camera to a computer.
