    Was it balanced after installation? All fans have balance kits with them when sold

    BTW, SMC fans usually get low ratings because of noise and performance. They are commonly found a Wal -Mart, K Mart, Target etc.

    Hello,

    I found a relevant website article for you about balancing your ceiling fan - this should help with wobbling and other unbalanced fan issues.

    This talks about different steps you can take to balance your fan properly. With a little bit of guidance you can likely resolve this problem.

    Ma0641 is right but maybe you can still balance the fan properly without having to return it, if you are set on using that fan.

    All cheap fans wobble. Some more than others. Some can be toned down, some no.
