Thanks a million to all who responded to my question concerning the
number of blades on a ceiling fan. Good discussion and good
information. Now here's the real story behind the question: My wife
really likes the Hampton Bay Escape fan (3 blades, 64" diam) because
of its unique and nautical appearance. Have any of you owned this fan
or seen it in operation? If so, how does it perform?
Thanks

When we bought the fans for our sunroom, I liked this one (having been
in the Navy), but my wife picked out another.

I believe this fan has a 14 degree angle to the blades. I don't know
what size motor it has, but 14 degrees is almost as steep as they
come, so I'd insure that the motor has some pretty beefy specs.
Doesn't that one come with one 60 watt bulb? Is that going to be
enough light for where you plan to use it?

Four blades are enough to dust!
