Ratings & Reviews for Fanimation Studio Collection Slinger v2 72-in Matte Black LED Covered Outdoor Ceiling Fan With Light and Remote Control Included

Poor redesign

I have had this fan on a sloped ceiling for 10 years! Now the manufacturer decides to put a receiver at the top of the fan that you have to wire in. Previously you had two wires due to the receiver being in the fan housing already wired. Now on new models you have to make 7 plus connections to wire the receiver for the fan to work. Not to mention they now want you to buy a sloped ceiling bracket due to the receiver having to be mounted at the base were the fan hangs. That is almost as much as th...

does everything we wanted.

I could not be happier with our new fan, it works great.

Not working, Remote is horrible

Outstanding Fan, Inexcusable Remote Failure

Five stars for the fan. One star for the remote. The fan is quiet, efficient, and looks fantastic. But twice a year, when it's time to reverse the direction, the remote becomes pure garbage. The light works. Normal operation works. Reversing the fan is an unnecessarily complicated, frustrating process that often feels like a guessing game. A premium fan deserves a premium remote, and this one simply isn't.

Save your money

Bought this fan on a Friday, made sure everything was wired correctly and within 4 hours it just quit working. Went back out to Lowe’s and bought a different switch thinking it was going to be a simple fix… wrong. Have spent the weekend trying to figure out why it’s not working when everything is connected properly, new switch, wires are good. Overall, save your money and don’t bother.

Great fan

We love the strength of the fan. Very modern look.

Great Replacement for a Hunter fan

Just finished installing this fan at home. 72 inches I thought would be too big for my living room, but it was perfect. Took about 90 min to install. The air it moves is just perfect. It replaced a 5yr old 52 inch Hunter fan tht was noisey and made too much noise for the room above it. This new fan is silent. I may have to go back and buy another for the master bedroom.

Just for looks.

It looks nice only and seems to be made of quality materials. The only problem is that it can barely be considered a fan because I can’t even feel it on the highest setting.. it moves so slow. It’s quiet but legitimately frustrating how ineffective it is. I will be returning it to Lowe’s when I track down the receipt and will be purchasing a cheaper fan that ironically works better.

Great Fan but wireless receivers keep dying

We bought this fan in July of 2022. Paid $320 for it. We loved the fan. It was quite, pushed a lot of air, and had dimmable lights. In October of 2023 it stopped working. Electrician determined the wireless receiver was bad. Fanimation sent me a replacement for free. Electrician the replace receiver in April of 2024. Fan stopped working again in November of 2025. Electrician determined it was the wireless receiver again. Fanimation sent another receiver. I asked about a wall mount controlle...

Slinger 72 inch ceiling fan

Product put together and installation wasnt bad...

Best Fan for my Location

Was easy to install, with a 6’ down rod. I added my own style 15” light instead of the supplied light.

Replaced twice

It is a beautiful fan and when it works, it is amazing. I bought the fan for my patio and worked great for the first year. I ended up replacing the fan because it stop working. The new fan ended up working for about a year maybe two. It is the same thing, the fan quit working.

Great fan!

Great size for the amount. Just make sure you are installing on a regular switch and not a dimmer.

Really moves alot of air

Nice fan. Moves good air. Pretty easy to install and operate

Paint

Less than a year and all the paint is peeling off, they are under a roof and we don’t live near the sea, so there’s no reason for this to happen, pure garbage.

glass replacment

Where can i purchase the glass for this model and price

Second time new fan stopped responding to the remo

The absolute WORST quality fan! Sadly, this is a US-based company! I purchased two new fans from this asinine company and both fans stopped responding to the remote in less than a year! The issue was a faulty receiver in the fan, which is only accessible by removing the fan since the receiver is housed in the canopy of the fan.

bought 2 - remote FAILED ON BOTH - JUNK

We bought 2 of the slingerV2's. On BOTH the remote stopped working w/in 6 months. DO NOT BUY! JUNK!!! SHAME on a company selling their INFERIOR products in America! They say they are an "American" company. I be EMBARRASED if it were my company! JUNK!
