Amazon.com Product Description
The Westinghouse Apollo Elite ceiling fan provides powerful cooling and air with its 42-inch, five-blade design. The blades and fan are a deep, rich blue, which contrasts handsomely with the fan's chrome finish. Both elements contribute to this fan making a bold fashion statement in the house.The fan includes a three-light lighting kit with three miniature blue lights carrying on the fan's color scheme and providing welcome light when necessary. 42-inch fans are best suited for medium-sized rooms such as recreation rooms, living rooms, or a children's bedroom but can be used for larger rooms. The fan is covered with a 25 year limited warranty.--Jeffrey Dalto What's in the Box

I Loved This! First of all where in the world was I going to find a unique PURPLE fan? Were it not for the complaints of the people that bought this I dont think I ever would have found it. I'm very impressed with the quality and the power. This thing is a work horse and very quiet. I keep it on low to keep from freezing lol! I actually wish it would have been more purple. Granted its kind of a purply blue... but it still looks blue to me. Especially the globes. Those are blue...what color blue is up for grabs... AND the blades are reversable. They have a silver side to. I was nervous about weather or not Westinghouse was a quality product but not anymore... I'm now a fan... Pun intended.

If you are creating like a baltimore ravens themed,room this is the perfect color fan for it because the fan blades are PURPLE/VIOLET they are not blue. Think Baltimore ravens. Anyway, I ended up going to wal-mart to buy blue spray paint, about two cans about $5 bucks. Took about 30 minutes to spray paint but it but if finally looked Blue when i was done. The light bulbs look purple under Soft white light But under daylight ,which i plan to use. I just installed the fan 5 minutes ago. It running now, very quiet no vibrations. my next step will be finding Daylight intermediate bulbs for this fan. I have a feeling ill be looking for a long time. If I could go back in time, I'd keep the chrome fan with white blades that i bought with standard light bulbs for like $35-40 bucks at lowes and paint the blades blue. :-D at least standard light bulbs are common and cheap.

I don't suggest buying this fan if you need light in the room. It has three "mini lights" the truth is they it is very very hard to find the kind of light bulbs you HAVE to have. They are a horribly bad for any room light. I had to special order and pay almost $4. per bulb. I have the fan in my kitchen, over the table, there isn't enough light
to even read the newpaper! IF YOU'RE LOOKING...KEEP LOOKING, this is a bad buy for light.
 Great looking - odd light size/motor hum January 21, 2007

This unit looks great - my daughter liked the silver blades(other side is blue) and purple/blue lights. I put it up - no harder than any other fan and turned it on. The motor has a loud hum which is worse at low speeds. We do not have any external remote control or anyhting else wgich could cause this. We are calling Westinghouse to ask for a replacement motor.
And now for the lights. It uses an intermediate base light bulb. Not standard, not the small one often found. In the local Home Depot there was a choice of exactly one type of light with this base - a 40w spot. This is a real pain. ALso the lights are fixed - no aiming as far as we can tell.
Having said all this, the unit looks so good in my daughters room we are going to keep it.
Very Attractive, but not all it seems. October 4, 2006

We bought this fan for our 5 year olds room. He is all boy! Blue room, blue sheets, blue everything. This fan is not blue, it says it is, but it's not. It's more purple then blue. Not only that, but the light that it puts off is like being in a bar. We couldn't find shades that were white or clear to replace the ones that came with it. SO...I had to try and get the paint off the shades. Not an easy task but I got it done.
If you are looking at this fan, it good for a bar like setting. The fan works well, but the light is something that is lacking.
