I was sort of inspired to create this thread after reading the comments on the Las Vegas Craigslist discussion about Casablanca's Saturn light kit.
My first choice would obviously be the Casablanca Venus / Venus Halo, then maybe the Homestead Wind series... but the Saturn would definitely be make the list as well...

I'd love to see Fasco revitalized and their Parlor Fan and Charleston brought back.

How about some antiques like Emerson Longnose and Hunter C-17 and R-52.

I really only like newer fans because they at least blow some air, and are still ceiling fans, but I still like older ceiling fans better. Even Hampton Bay Littletons or Heritage Alexis push some air. One reason I make videos is to get more money, I know I don't make much but every penny counts. |

Casablanca is turning to crap, only a few fans have the "good" motors in them and yet they still charge $300 for fans like that... my favorite brand is ultimately Emerson, they make a lot of fans with, and are still introducing new models with the K55XL motor in them. Fanimation is a close second, they're bringing back and still make fans with the better motors.

The Hunter Original pre-2000's motor change, and a cast iron Emerson of some sort to compete with it (maybe similar to a Longnose or a Trojan with a better proportioned switch housing).

Casa started turning to crap right before Hunter bought them out.

Hmmm.. if it is regarding the fan production:
SMC Laguna
Relite fans
Union
Rallifan
The older models of irient de-luxe
Japanese made KDKs
In terms of fans that existed in places but were removed:
Mid 80s SMC K56 in one of the mosques
Fanimations in mall of the emirates
Unknown early 90s 4-bladed fans in chilis, burjuman center
Many of the fans I missed from abandoned buildings that were pulled out by someone else

I don't think I'd be able to narrow it down to one, but a few of the fans I would like to see brought back (or updated versions made) would be the Venus, the Metropolitan, the Apollo, the Victorian, The Commodore Vanderbilt, the Delta, the Ventura, Passport III, The archive Original, the 1930s original, the Second Century original, and an updated version of the Casablanca Cascade.

Nice to see a fellow Venus supporter... but I don't recall Casablanca making an 'Apollo' model... |
