Agreed Andrew.
Thank goodness they discontinued all those Low Profile variants like David had that looked like complete junk!!

Dang, I need an 1886 as well. Lack of production will make that more difficult all the time unless they start getting replaced at spectacular rates.

Tais, they still make the Midas Black Special Edition. It's still in the 2012 catalog. None of the Originals are gone either. They renamed all of the classic fans "Heritage Series".

These are the crappy low-end Fanimations. They've been churning out a LOT of this crap over the past couple years.

Yeah I saw that myself. Definitely speaks to why the Levon copy is so spot on. I still feel like the Edgewoods are nice fans (by Lowes standards at least), but I only like the older ones and find the newer ones to be quite hideous.

The thing I don't like with a lot of fans made today is that they can get really bizarre and weird. While some contemporary models I like those are mostly the more streamlined ones.
