Minka-Aire F896-65-CL Xtreme H2O 65" Outdoor Ceiling Fan with Remote Control, Coal

Really nice fans. They move a lot of air and very quiet.

Great fan. Just bought a second one for outdoor porch, only because house was struck by lightning and killed my first one. Had the first one since 2020 and had no issues. I’ve had the second fan installed for about two weeks. No problems. Love that it has six speeds. It’s quiet and powerful. Moves a lot of air which is a must, here in central GA. Original fan saw some signs of rust once it was removed…probably because of outdoor use. Very pleased with this brand and model.

I had been looking at fans for my finished garage, which also houses a therapy pool. The humidity can get pretty high, so I needed a quality outdoor rated unit. I was budgeting $300, but I heard such good things about this fan that I decided to up the budget to get it. I’m so glad I did. It’s a beautiful looking fan, the install was spot on and pretty simple. Took me about 45-60 mins. I branched off my garage opener outlet for power and the remote worked perfectly. I didn’t have to mess around with any balancing, it is whisper quite, it barely using any power and it really moves some air. You really get what you pay for.

We love everything about these fans. We installed 2 of them back in June of 2022. They push a LOT of air. Look great & are quiet. My husband & I are actually patio builders & we recommend these to everyone. We've had several clients purchase them & they love them too.

The media could not be loaded. Beautiful fan, well made, silent operation.

I haven't had this fan installed long but my first impressions are that it is a really solid outdoor fan and worth the money. Its very quiet, was perfectly balanced out of the box and it moves a lot of air on its highest setting. Plenty for my 10' x 17' patio area.The only part I don't like is how everything is controlled from the remote. The fan only has black (hot), white (neutral) and green (ground) wires, nothing switched. Where I was installing it, my house has black, white, ground and red (switched). If you follow the fan's instructions and match colors, then the red wire isn't used and the wall switch does not do anything. You have to use the remote to turn the fan on or off.However, I found that if I wire the fan's white and ground to the home's white and ground respectively but wire the fan's black wire to my house's red wire instead of my house's black wire (and cap my house's black wire), then the fan will come on and off with the wall switch and most importantly, the fan will remember the setting it was previously on. Since I live in Florida, I expect to have it on high almost all the time when I'm using it, so now the wall switch will work for me on its own 99% of the time and I won't have to bother with the remote.This wiring may be pretty basic knowledge for a lot of people out there, but it wasn't intuitive to me so I figured I would put it out there in case it helps someone else.Now that I have it wired the way I like it, I think it will be a great outdoor fan.

Loved it until it stopped working after 2 months. It was installed by a professional electrician. Customer service was condescending so let’s see how long it takes for them to send the remote sensor to be replaced and we shall see if that’s the problem. Spending $500 + installation + the cost to have someone replace the part AND getting an attitude with customer service SUCKS.

Just make sure it's installed correctly. Had issues with it grinding and wobbling after 1 year but found out the company I paid to install did a poor job. Once adjusted to correct the poor install, am going on 3rd year now and works flawlessly and silently.
