    The product, in the report: Fanimation Hugh 52” 3 Blade Outdoor LED Ceiling Fan with Remote Control

    A blade flew off my ceiling fan while it was running. Luckily it didn’t hit anyone but it could have hurt someone if it did. It looks like the blade snapped off where it mounts to the fan.

    The product, in the report: Ceiling Fan

    I have a Fanimation ceiing fan ( FP4320), (http://www.fanimation.com/products/index.html?criteria=fp4320&x=9&y=8&mode=list) installed in our house living room. The scariest thing happened yesterday. One of the blades broke and fell down on us. I have photos of the fan and the broken blade. Please look into this, before someone gets injured seriously. The metal coupling between the fan and the blade broke. Have you had other reports of this. I want you to explore into this issue. I contacted the company, and [REDACTED] has been very quick to respond and asked for me to return the product back to them, and they would only replace the fan, but not refund any money. Since then, I have returned the fan and they have replaced the fan. But as you can understand, I am in no frame of mind to have a product of this type hanging over me, not knowing if it will happen again, and maybe kill someone. This is quite a serious issue and I do not wish anyone to get hurt.
