Great looking fans.... They came with both wall mounted controllers, and hand held remotes as well. I also used a separate 24" Textured Black down rod for my installation. Hanging from the beams above, this lowered the fans to a height of roughly 10 ft off the floor. I've installed more ceiling fans than I care to count, but these were a little more difficult than expected. After messing with the first one, the second one was a piece of cake. The problem was getting the remote receiver properly installed. This is usually done last, but with this one it had to be wired in first. Of course, if your not using a wireless remote, then it's an easy, straight forward installation. These fans are QUIET.... I hear nothing on the Low or Medium speeds, and when set to high speed, the only sound heard is that of the wind! They efficiently move a lot of air as well. I am more than pleased with these fans! My only complaint would be the fact that both fans currently operate on the same frequency, so one controller operates both fans. Sounds like no big deal, until you hit a button on the controller and only "one" of the fans picks up the signal. Now your fans are operating out of sync!!! You can separate them though, so that they each operate on a different frequency. Usually this is just a case of flipping a few switches on the remote and the corresponding receiver above, but not with these fans... the receiver has no switches, they have to "Learn" a frequency change. This is very convenient if your fans are operating on separate circuits, but mine are both in the same room, powered off the same breaker. Which means I have to disconnect one fan from the power source, in order to change the operating frequency of the other.... this means one of the fans must be completely disassembled and taken down to access the power wire above... Why... because the receiver installation was #1 on the priority list during installation, remember. Farg'n pain in the... Great fans overall... I have ne regrets. I would certainly by them again. I would like to get my hands on the responsible engineer though...LOL Review: Quite, classy - Pros: * Whisper quite. On the fastest speed all you hear the wind moving. Not sure how they do it. * Zero wobble. * Included both remote and wall control. * I think it is classy looking. Far better than the typical fan Less than Pros: * Integration with Alexa requires another device - but works well when installed. - but you cannot control the brightness of the light, just on and off. * If you are going from two switch fan to this, it takes a bit to figure it out. But if you are comfortable with changing light switches and can look up on YouTube, then you can do it. * I opted to put in the 12" drop which helps with airflow, but with the light centered on the bottom of the fan the light is not great in the edges of the room. But it is a bedroom and I do believe it would have been much better if I had used the default 6" drop. Bottom line: My wife likes it. ## Features - DESIGN: The Minka-Aire Light Wave ceiling fan is a truly unique design that draws inspiration from the ocean's graceful and tubular wave formations. - BULB: The Light Wave ceiling fan includes an integrated 16 Watt Dimmable LED Light Module in White Opal Glass - INCLUDED: One RCS213 - Three-speed hand-held remote control, One WCS213 wall Control and One 6-Inch Downrod - MOTOR: Conveniently quiet, 3 speed - reversible motor.

Install was fairly easy, I watched a Youtube video since the directions were not the best. I cut the wires to size since it can accommodate a very long down rod. Wedging the remote receiver into the slot was honestly the hardest part. I really like the modern styling. I have a Thuma bed frame, and the color is a bit darker than the frame but is complementing. It does push a lot of air on high, but isn't a tornado. I sorta wished it did spin faster, but then any papers in a room would go flying. The only noise on high is a little cha-cha-cha sound from the cutting of the air, not the fan itself. The remote's light switch is wonky, where if you press to dim it will get dimmer and dimmer but once at the lowest light setting it then starts to get brighter, making it hard to pin point on the lowest light setting. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/256401254-minka-aire-f844-dk-light-wave-52-ceiling-fan-distressed](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/256401254-minka-aire-f844-dk-light-wave-52-ceiling-fan-distressed) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
