They move decent air, I had the Eastern Shore (a Summer Breeze with different blades) and it moved a lot of air and didn't wobble. Thick blades, might I add (:

The Main Dining Area at the Retirement Home has 7 Hunter Summer Breezes. They spin a bit slow but blows good amount of air considering they're newer fans.

New SBs aren't the same as the old ones. Personally speaking, I find a lot of Hunter's current 52" fans to be VERY underpowered. They're good on low, decent air movement and quiet, but on high speed they barely go faster than what I'd call a fast medium. That aside, they move some good air and are decent by today's standards, but if you want power, go vintage.

Yes, I agree, go vintage. If you need to buy one new, keep looking on your local Craigslist and eBay for one new in the box, yet from the 80s. They're popping up now and again.

Yeah, I'd go with a vintage Hunter if possible. Even 90s models are a LOT better than the current ones...
