Easy to order. Arrived on time. Installed in no time.
Hi Jamea, thanks for the great review! We’re glad ordering was easy, your receiver arrived on time, and installation was quick. Enjoy your ceiling fan!
The fan kit arrived in about one week. Packaging was good. It was installed without issue and now my ceiling fan is up and running again. Good customer service.
Hi Mary, thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're glad the fan kit worked well and that you're happy with the service.
The gyy on the phone was so helpful. We really appreciated him. Received our product quickly and it is installed.
Hi Jeannie, we're so glad to hear that our team was helpful and that you're happy with your new fan kit! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Prompt and helpful thanks
As advertised. Fan stopped working. Replaced the controller and works as new. No issues with using the original remote.
Perfect fit, easy hook up. Works great!
First:
This unit is a solution to the MinkeAire ceiling fan remote which reverses direction.
Minke stopped making those other one, but these guys built a good unit. Just installed it for a client and it works great.
Second:
I think it is more valuable to see how a company behaves when things do not go perfectly. This company had a problem and they went out of their way to make it right.
Their warehouse packer send only half my order.
I reached out by email and later I got a call from what felt to me to be the owner. He explained their issue, and how the replacement would be handled.
The personal touch is why I am writing this review.
Well done, sir.
Installed and works, fixed the problem
I'll be calling u, I ordered a remote celling fan kit. U didn't send a remote to go with.
The remote works as expected. The issue was it took about 3 weeks to get it. There was no communication from the company that the remote was not available at the time of purchase. The only communication was initiated by me. In my opinion, this is very unprofessional
Easy to install per simple instructions provided.
Hi Todd, we're glad to hear the installation was straightforward for you! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Parts delivered in 2 weeks . Worked great!! Easy installation and so much less expensive than buying a new fan.
Hi there! We're so glad to hear the parts arrived quickly and worked well for you. Thanks for choosing Anderic, and enjoy your fan!
Worked perfectly and fast delivery
Received in a timely manner
Electrician installed part and all went well.
Great customer service!! Works perfectly.
Exactly what I needed.
Thank you for leaving a review! We’re glad to hear it was exactly what you needed. We truly appreciate your feedback and support.
Can't review because I have not had it installed yet.
The wiring and the receiver hooked up fine. But the bad part is that the fan now has only about 40% of its fan speed. We have two identical fans, but now this one is only less than half of the speed.
My receiver arrived in a timely manner and installed easily. Works absolutely perfect.
Glad to hear your receiver arrived quickly and was easy to install! We’re thrilled it’s working perfectly for you. Thanks for choosing Anderic!
This new receiver speeds does not match the old receiver. It is much slower.
The highest level only matches the middle speed.
We’re so sorry to hear about the issue with your new receiver’s speed settings. If you’re still experiencing this problem, please give us a call at 1-855-573-6683, and our support team will be happy to assist you in getting it resolved.
The receiver that came with the fan would not fit because my ceiling was sloped 24 degrees. Your receiver fit and worked great
The fan receiver arrived quickly and was a perfect match. Very happy with the service from Anderic.
It was not the part I needed to fix the problem. Granted, I was the one troubleshooting the issue with the fan, but now I’m just buying a new fan and I’m out another $80 because I can’t get a refund on this capacitor I ordered. I’m sure this is a fine place to buy parts you need through, but I’m not happy not being able to return a product I bought by mistake.
My Monte Carlo windmill 62” fan would make clunking noises when I turned it on but the noise would go away if the light was on. Eventually it would not turn. I debated replacing the controller with the same model number DC8-62 or the DC8-96. I chose the 96 and so far it is working like new. The original controller lasted only 3years which is not that impressive for the retail cost of the fan.
Just what i expected - easy to replace the old (non-functioning) receiver and now the fan is working as designed.
Excellent service.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We truly appreciate your kind words and support.
Although there is no given information stating that the model number I gave on my order was not the one that I did/ would receive. After calling and speaking to tech support it was verified it is an exact replacement. Once installed, it works great.
