Hi,
I have 4 Harbor Breeze outdoor ceiling fans on my patio, they are 5 yrs old.
Me and my friend were in the hot tub the other night and we heard a loud noise, we looked around and saw one of the fans wabbleing,
then we saw one of the blades had broke off and flew across the patio and hit the side of the hot tub. Thank God it did not hit me or my friend but if it had happened just one minute sooner it could have injured me because I had been standing right where it hit.
I feel these fans are defective and need to be taken off the market.
I purchased them because they are for outdoor use and the blades are made of hard plastic or pvc so I thought they would be safe to use outdoors. As I was taking the fan down I noticed another blade that fan was almost broke off. I have checked all the other fans to find they all have broken blades that are ready to fall off. I am just thankful that nobody was injured. I am replacing all the fans and I will not purchase this brand again. I felt I needed to tell someone about this because this could be a real danger.
Thank you
Susan
