That's a nice collection The Casablanca Palisades looks very classy like this. You could have saved a lot of trouble and money on the Casablanca Wailea by not getting that light and installing on it as it was meant for much larger fan like a Capistrano or Lanai. The Casablanca Ventura is very nice and you got an awesome deal on it for being NIB. I actually prefer them with four blades instead of five. Thank you my man I know I could've saved myself some trouble and money by skipping the light altogether but Im planning on putting it in my bathroom in place of a light that's there . Also, I wanted everything to be genuine casablanca too lol. I thought it was cool how the Wailea had an extra spot ready for a light kit so I wanted to make sure I got a light kit that didn't already have its own pull chain. That kit was the only one that matched what I was looking for and it matched perfectly So you like it with four? Hmmm. When it goes up, I'm going to make a video of it both with four and five blades Yes I prefer Casablanca Venturas along with all plain and classic Casablanca installed with four blades instead of five. I currently have a Casablanca Ventura installed in my bedroom: www.vintageceilingfans.com/membergalleries/gallery/showimage.php?i=4247&c=231

You have a lot of cool sightings too. The metal blade fan would be a DEMC.

Haha i know what you mean! when I have my own house, vintage casablancas all the way! I'm installing the Ventura with 5 (at least for a few months and then switch to 4) and the wailea with all 6. Im tired of working with that damn switch cap on the wailea so its staying how it is, just going to put a ceiling medallion in the bathroom before I install it At least you have some good fans in your house! My mother isn't into vintage, so we have mostly garbage fans lol. When I get my own place its going to be full of 80s spinners, cane bladed fans, industrials, Originals, Casablancas, all quality fans made in America, no more of this Chinese crap
Cole strongly likes 5 and Jean strongly prefers 4, I like both pretty much the same. The Wailea I think I like best with 4 blades, Cole made a video showing all of its configurations. Its a great choice for a bathroom. They're pretty powerful for their size, and moisture resistant.
The nickel Hampton Bay is the Trenton. The PB Hunter is the Summer Breeze Plus. I've never heard of the Summer Breeze Plus before, are you talking about the fan in the airport or the one in the donut shop place?

The OG one. Loved it, but outgrew it too fast I think he's talking about the donut spot They perfect for moisture and all that lol. Added bonus that the light kit i got is wet location!

I have an Original I use in my fan room from the 80s, its awesome, then I go upstairs and have a $50 Hampton Bay Brookhurst, its loud and weak... its like trying to skate a board from WalMart lol
The Hampton Bay Carousel is a neat fan, its something I wouldn't mind having in my collection but probably wouldn't install it in the bedroom. I guess that light kit is turning out to be worth the cost!

The Summer Breeze Plus is a Stratford/Vista with a 3-light fitter and either frosted (white finish) or clear (brass finishes) glass light kit shades.

Hey all. I'm back. Just dropping by to show you all what's been going on in my fan world this summer First up, this is a Hunter Mayfair at my friends place. I went to her house for a project I installed my Ventura on my testing rack with two different globes. Which do you all like better? Back at school, there are these fans. Not sure what brand, but they all have footprint vents. And at the gym, there are these Canarms and an unknown bent blade one When i got home from school on may 7th, a guy on craigslist had this Nutone Elegance up. I contacted him immediately. I went over to his house and we both dismantled it. It came with the infamous Select Touch, Inteli Touch's rival I went to go visit my high school last month and they put up these Dayton's over the entrance Replaced the light kit on my Four Seasons II last month Went to a backyard party at my friends place and got a lil drunk a week ago. But I spotted this Bahama (?) in his kitchen A few days ago, I met fellow collector Mark Wilson (also from Mass). He traded me his nutone slimline switch cap (punched out for a light kit) for my solid cap, my Verandah Deluxe decorative cap for his light kit and glasses. Along with that, he allowed me to have a NIB Verandah II. Great man Ordered a new Mounting Bracket for Casablanca fans just in case I needed a new one Also ordered a NIB Antique Brass LCA for my Zephyr This past Aaturday, I went to my friends grad party. She's getting her house renovated and it was my first time being in the upstairs part of her house. Not sure what the pretzel bracket one is, but everything else in her house is pretty cool, especially the 2nd Century Original in her bedroom And now my most recent pickup: a Casablanca Four Seasons. Picked it up today Stub brackets, 5 Speed Variable control. Absolutely beautiful. Came with a double sliding control and installed on a LCA. Keeping this forever

Glad to see you're back..
The Mayfair is nice..
Prefer the round globe on the Ventura..
Those footprint vent generics at the school (library?) is an awesome install.. love it.. Do they ever run them?
Nice industrials.. I like the blades with the lines in them.. That Dayton though.. what happened to that? lol
The Nutone Elegance is a good find.. I like it better with four blades. how much did you get it for?
I've always liked those Four Seasons huggers.. but only saw them in white.. first time seeing it in brass.. light looks good on there..
Not sure about that Bahama thing.. never seen one before.. sure needs a different light though.. or at least different bulbs..
Awesome Verandah.. NIB is always cool..
The pretzel bracket one in your friends house is really strange.. is it green? For some reason I want to say Hampton Bay.. If that is a 68" Altura, how does it perform mounted that close to the ceiling? I'd think not much air can get on top of the blades.. Second Century Originals aren't my favorite.. but they're quality..
Nice Four Seasons.. there's something about those ultra-short irons.. Not my first choice of light for it though..

Thanks man lol They sometimes run the fans in the library. not all the time Not sure what happened to the Dayton lol I got the elegance off craigslist for 50 The pretzel bracket confused me too. It is green. someone told me Encon or something like that. The Altura is just for show. blades are obnoxiously thick and it moves so slowly, i could barley get a breeze from it. but it sure does look nice in the area that its in The four seasons is pretty awesome. I just switched the blades so now it has my Zephyr's cane blades. I want to replace the light kit for it soon cuz the switch cap is all bent out of shape and everything
