sepultura 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2008 Mine does. It's also an amasco. For that matter I've had very bad experiences with amasco's quality. My 2nd bedroom fan started making loud humming and rattling noises within 3 months of installation and they fixed it. The stupid thing started again last week. The remote control is half busted - the fan control works but light doesn't. And as you said, the balance seems off, it wobbles even after lots of adjustment by the service tech. And now my master bedroom fan is suddenly going sloooooow... even at max speed. In contrast, my "crestar" fan in the living room is silky smooth, no noise, no wobble. I'll never recommend or buy amasco stuff. Bad quality. Anyone's fan wobbles when switched to the highest speed? My amasco 56" motor wobbles slightly at manual speed 3 + remote speed max. It wobbles lesser at manual speed 3 + remote speed med. It works most gracefully at manual speed 2, remote speed med. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hubby and me love the fan. Even our ID likes it and asked us to recommend him the place to buy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irvinc 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2008 pull string... i thought all use remote... Yeah..mine's those with pullstring to regulate the speed. When i bought this fan i was contemplating between this & the kdk remote controlled ones, but a friend of mine paid $100+ for the remote when it malfunction, so kind of changed my mind to get it. As for the warranty..i'm not quite sure about it. Not even sure if the warranty card was given at the time when they install it as my reno was taking place & house was in a mess with all the other accessories lying around. Will check with the fanco people.. There are a number of fans which are made in australia which catches my wife's eye but to just import them myself & the thought of getting a electrician to install it will only add to the cost. Then again, the designs are really good which they dont have it here in sg. Of course..warranty is another issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steventay 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2008 Apparantly, my 1 year plus old fanco have failed me since my son played the nintendo wii & accidently swing the pull string over the top of the fan, causing it to slow down abruptly. Though it still works, the speed of the fan have been drastically reduced even though it's on speed3. Tried servicing it myself but to no avail. It was a pretty good fan i must say, so just a word of caution is to be careful of the pull string (for adjusting the speed) to be stowed away if you intend to have any form of moving around under the fan. I'm looking into replacing this fan & get another. May try out other brands.. pull string... i thought all use remote... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted May 20, 2008 why not get the fanco people to come down and service it? thought motor warranty is lifetime? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
irvinc 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2008 Based on my research on ceiling fan, KDK is one of the best. But too bad it has limited choices for HDB and design too plain. Other 2 brands recommended by most people are Fanco and Crestar.

magiclamp 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2008 you can switch on/off the light from both the remote and the switch but the fan from the remote only Thanks Applefreak. Appreciate the reply... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted May 17, 2008 Hi I am thinking of installing Fanco Aroma, but will the remote (on/off) and wall switch serve as a double switch? ie I want to turn the light on and off from both the remote and wall switch I find it inconvenient to search for remote all the time. But my wife wants the remote. Any comments? you can switch on/off the light from both the remote and the switch but the fan from the remote only Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
