Fanimation ceiling fans

My advice - Don't use any ceiling fans manufactured by Fanimation. They look great but are not designed to function in the real world.  The light has no venting and becomes intensely  hot (kinda counter productive for a device meant to cool a room ).
Our electrician said we were lucky it did not start a fire. 

The fan stopped running within weeks of being installed.  Then the light would not respond to the remote control.  The heat from the light had warped the housing,  making it impossible for the fan to run and ultimately frying the light.  Although the fan and light are designed to work separately, we would have needed to run the fan at high speed constantly just to keep the light cool.
MonsterMustDie put together a professional quality box to ship it back to the manufacturer today so we can get a refund or exchange for a different model.
Urgh!
