Best places to find large ceiling fan

[boiler717]

Our electrician recommended we look for at least a 56 in fan for our great room. The room is pretty large (20x25, two stories tall, and has lots of east facing widows). I am having a hard time finding fans I like in that size. I've found two that I like so far, but both are 52 inches. I've checked multiple online lighting sites, Overstock, big box hardware stores, and speciality lighting stores around town. Any other ideas?

Here are the two I like so far:

Amazon dot com. That's where we bought our ceiling fan. I love the selection, reading the reviews, and as usual their delivery was prompt.

I've had good luck ordering lighting from both lighting direct and lighting universe. Both sell fans as well.

I bought the ceiling fans for our bedrooms on amazon.com.

Try lighting direct. If you can't find anything you like there, visit a local lighting store. I was amazed with the selections when I visited the local lighting store. They don't have much on display, but they have countless catalogs.

Forgot to add, our great room is like yours (2-story and ~20x25) and we're getting a 70" fan.

We have 2 one on each side of our fire place in our 2 story house. They are 52 inches and keep the air circulating well. We got them at Lowes and they are Hunters. We opted to leave the light kits off of those.

Thanks! Do you have a link to what you've found? I haven't seem a 70" one before!

If you're ok with a *very* modern looking fan, this is what H and I are getting if we ever buy a house:

OMG I didn't know Big Ass Fans made residential products! We occasionally specify them for projects (the really big 15' ones) and I have a stress ball material ass from them on my desk.

We bought our 56" fan at Lowe's - it's a Hunter.

They do. My H gets "Family Handyman" and "Wood" and their ads are all over those two magazines.

FWIW, I think right now they're having a contest regarding dressing up your desk ass. Not sure what the prizes are, but I read something about it on their website. Made me jealous that I don't have a desk ass.

Looks like the contest is over but people keep uploading new pictures anyway. There are a lot of good ones in there!
