What Customers Are Saying
This ceiling fan electrical box is a sturdy and easy-to-install product that can securely support heavy ceiling fans. Customers praised its robust construction and straightforward installation process, especially in situations where ceiling joists are not easily accessible. The box is reported to handle heavy loads without any issues or wobbling of the installed fan. Some minor drawbacks were noted, such as the plastic cable clips not being ideal for certain wiring, and the need to purchase separate mounting screws. Overall, this appears to be a reliable and versatile solution for ceiling fan installations, particularly in challenging spaces.

All good
Would RecommendIt fit as described for a ceiling fan installation.

The other two are used to secure the fan through the fan mounting hanger & saddle box into the truss.

Easy to install, very sturdy
Would RecommendUsed this electric box to replace the cheap flat plastic one that was holding up a light-weight ceiling light fixture with a ceiling fan. Very easy to install. Slips right over the wood joist. Feels extremely secure once you attach the base of the ceiling fan.
