We bought a cage ceiling fan that I loved in 2020. The fan blades portion is like a pedestal fan, not like the typical ceiling fan blades. It wasn't cheap and I would have expected it to last. While it does have a lifetime motor warranty, the components are only covered for 2 years. Fast forward to earlier this week, the fan blades split in half, turned a bulb to shards and damaged the wall. Don't bother calling the company, the blade isn't offered as a replacement part, I was told to go buy a new fan. I did notice newer versions are caged in on the sides now. They warranty the motor for life but you can't replace the $12 blade? Go buy a new one? Plus the possibility for potential injury. I did figure out a blade from a pedestal fan will fit and will be installing chicken wire around the sides, which will fit in fine with my old farmhouse. read more
