Feels cheap, didn't work, missing hardware
Consumer Reports rated Air King fans pretty high, but I didn't feel this way after installing it. It felt cheaply made, and the steel used wasn't welded together quite right. I think this resulted in reduced air flow, because it really didn't seem to pull much air out of the bathroom, and if my shower went longer than 5 minutes it started dripping water out of the grill onto my bathroom floor. And I don't believe the sones advertised were accurate as it was louder than expected. Maybe this particular fan wasn't caught during quality control, but I didn't want to take another chance.
I returned it for a Panasonic fan which I can't rave enough about. The Panasonic just felt solid, didn't drop water, kept the mirror clear and was incredibly quiet. And it included the hardware I needed to complete the job. Buy a Panasonic.
quiet, darn near silent
This was everything the manufacture promised and more.
Easy to install for the average DIY type who has a broad knowledge of construction.
Dry bathroom!
This fan is perfect. We have a 10 x12 bathroom that was constantly steamed up. After installing this fan, we finally have a dry bathroom and its extremely quiet.
