Odyssey 5 Blade Flush Mount Ceiling Fan with Light Kit 44 Inch Wide by WAC - F-034L

Great fan with a very nice LED light. Super quiet!

This fan had everything I was looking for in an outdoor fan. WET RATED, plastic not metal or wood blades, in the finish I wanted, brushed nickel, with a remote to adjust lighting and fan speed. I love the fact the remote- is SIMPLE, no confusion about what you’re operating. I was told by my handy man it was very simple to install. It keeps the BUGS away when it’s running too. We sat and had breakfast on my porch and chatted for 3 hours outside on a HOT summer day. Never could’ve done that without this fan, so yes, I’m loving it so far. Have sat out there under it every day. Just enjoy the look of it too, sleek and contained. Beautiful fan.

The good:

- looks great in person, solid mate black

- Affordable price

- 3 light and fan speed settings and the app allows you to dim the light

- The App is a huge plus

The not so good:

- It’s hard to install! A lot of cables come loose and the screws that it does bring say that can only be used in Canada so this took 2 trips to Home Depot.

- The light cover is a thin plastic/foam doesn’t seem sturdy at all. (The rest of the fan is good and study)

My Electrician installed this fan yesterday & he was really impressed. (I actually plan on purchasing 2 more for my other rooms that are due for an upgrade)

The fan is crazy quiet & with so many speeds I will surely be spoiled in the hot Phoenix summers!

The light could be a bit brighter but it is do-able.

The only negative (hence 4 stars) is the remote should really have backlighting. Had to turn on the light switch to change the fan speed “in the middle of the night”

Secondly, it has a very soft ambient light that stayed on all night…. even though I thought I had turned it completely off. Will try again tonight. Hopefully it’s “user error”

Update: WAC Technical Support was Great! Stated that the grounding wire needed to be secured. Thats why the light was still dim although turned off. My Electrician is coming back this week. And, if for some reason that doesn’t do the trick, WAC will send a replacement @No Cost! 👏🏼

For quality, weight (under 10lbs) speeds, price, etc. I highly recommend! 👍

I can't believe that a fan could be such an issue in 2021. You would think that you just hook it up and you can go to the switch on the wall and turn the light on and off or the fan on or off... but it doesn't work like that. You need to wire the fans light and fan together to one switch and then leave it the switch turned on so you can use the remote control.

On top of that... just like another reviewer said, the light stays dimly lit at night. And yes, I turned the light all the way down with the remote and turned the power off on the remote as well. The only way to turn the light completely off is to turn the switch to the off position which then leaves the fan completely dead... you cannot use the remote to turn the fan on at that point.

I thought buying the optional wall control unit would resolve the issue but that thing didn't work at all. Nothing! Dead! I'm waiting for the third electrician to come by to see if he can figure this out. I've never been so frustrated in my entire life with something that should be straightforward and simple.

I contacted support 4 times and they haven't replied once.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:

This is our second purchase of this fan. It was easy to install and set up in the app. Like that it has a wonderful setting, but most of all the lack of any sound other than the air moving if it’s going fast. My only complaint about these is that the light covers are plastic. As others have said though, you don’t notice once it’s in the ceiling. Highly recommend getting the wall switch if you have anyone in your family born before the 90s 🙃. It’s not hard to operate but my early 80s husband likes the option over remembering what I named all of our devices. 😉

Beautiful fan! It works well too

I’ve been looking for a new kitchen fan that met my many requirements for several months. It had to be rated for a wet environment, energy efficient, reverse movement, a dimmable a led light, and be at an affordable price.

After reading the reviews and finding it was rated as #1 Best Buy, it was easy to make the decision to purchase this new WAC fan.

It is everything and more than I imagined. It so quiet I almost had look to make sure it was on.

A remote control comes with the unit. An optional wall control is available for an additional fee, or use your Wi-Fi network at home.
