I bought a Craftmade ceiling fan at a lighting store, total cost $179. Had to buy the fan, blades, and light kit separately. I wanted a totally white fan to blend in with the ceiling; I just opened the box and the fan motor piece is brass. I thought that the metal pieces that hold the blades was brass and the rest was white. I saw a Hunter fan at Home Depot that is $99 and includes the blades and the light kit. I like the light on it better, although it only has 2 bulbs in it. The Craftmade fan can take 3 bulbs. The Hunter fan is completely white, which is what I wanted. I don't really like ceiling fans to begin with so I wanted it to basically blend in with the ceiling. Sort of being functional without being obvious. I guess I can live with the brass if its a much better fan. I'd rather have a better fan if its worth the money. But I like the Hunter fan from Home Depot better. Should I return the Craftmade fan? They both have limited lifetime warranties on the motors. Its also important to me that the fan be quiet. Thank you!
