Nothing too fantastic, but got this Hunter Millennium. I've seen it sitting in back for a few weeks, not really sure what it was until it was out this week. Paid more than I would have liked because it was unpriced and the guy at the checkout saw the Hunter logo and went off on this whole thing about how anything Hunter is the best. :icon_rolleyes: It was in rough shape at first, lots of rust from who knows what reason and nasty black flakes I was never able to identify, but now that it's all cleaned up I'm very glad I decided to just go for it. One badly warped blade and some cracks in the gloss, but otherwise in quite good condition. Everything shown is what it came with.

Nice find. What year is it from? February of 1997. if i were you i hide the logo and the guy wouldn't see it just a thought That was my initial plan, but it just barely slipped into view and he latched right onto it. Not to be dishonest, but really I should have just pulled it off since those little logos just pop in and he would've said $15 just like any other fan in there, because this is just like any other fan in there, not anything special just because it's a Hunter. Wouldn't be surprised if he was the one that priced that Avignon sans globes at $50...

I love the stepped canopies on these older Hunters! A local outdoor shopping center had a jewelery store that had PB Millenniums sans lights. They were installed on a 9' ceiling and hardly moved air due to them being mounted on 3" down rods. One of them was missing a switch cap, so it could never be used. The jewelery store moved out in the mid 2000s and moved, and the fans were removed. Seems that shopping center had (note: had) a lot of Hunters from the 90s, since it was built in 1997 (a bread shop had white Southern Classics, a restaurant still has black Preferences in the bar, another restaurant had a lot of black Infinities in the bar and a lot of white Infinities in the restaurant itself, a golf pro shop had a bunch of black Preferences, etc).

I like these canopies too, they look cool and they're very easy to use with flush mounting since they're wide and quite deep.

Cole, can you flushmount them using the low profile washer? That's what I did with one of my Infinitis. I used an AVT washer on the Installer's Choice canopy.

That's literally as old as I am! Wow we really have some young members here... Or I'm getting too old. That's pretty much when the Titanic came out in theaters.
