What Customers Are Saying

The product has mixed performance, with some users finding it easy to install and use, while others experienced significant issues. The main positives are that the remote is generally easy to install, syncs up quickly, and provides good fan speed control. However, many customers reported problems such as the remote feeling flimsy, lacking an obvious off button, and not working reliably. There were also compatibility issues with some older fan models. The installation process was challenging for some, requiring professional assistance. Overall, the product seems to be hit-or-miss, with a significant number of customers experiencing problems.

Cheap

Would Not Recommend

Cheap. Does not reverse fan. Does not dim lamps. Poor use and installation instructions. Should have been included in the price of the fan. My old 20 year fan had better controls. This is a step backwards

Nice clean remote that works well

Would Recommend

This remote has a nice clean form factor and fits well in the hand. The receiver portion that installs in the fan can be a very tight fit on but with a little effort, and carefully moving wires it slid into the mounting bracket well. Because the remote is simple, several of the buttons have multiple functions so its important to understand the function card / diagram provided.

Works well….

Would Recommend

Works really well but had a hard time fitting it in the unit. It’s too big to fit in the part against the ceiling. So the wires show.

Installed 4 Remotes..Have a couple of improvements

Would Recommend

I just got done installing 4 of these remotes. It took some time on the first one to understand how they connected to my fans with lights. It is labelled "universal" so you have to carefully look at your fans to understand which instructions you need to follow. All four of my fans were identical and only had pull chains to turn the light and fan off or on separately. With this device, you leave the power on at all times. The first one took me a full afternoon to complete. The other 3 only ...

Does the job nicely

Would Recommend

Got this remote & receive for a Hunter fan that didn't include a remote. Install was straightforward and included instructions were clear and accurate. Well done, Hunter!

Average looking remote

Would Recommend

Not the greatest, most sturdy remote I have seen but hopefully it will last as long as the fan. I wish it was already included with the fan but it is a separate purchase. No great bells or whistles.
