Our of the box, really good quality. Sturdy metal face plates. Included templates to cut door holes which worked perfectly. Set up was very easy. Some extra hardware allows various install options. I fiddled with how to run the power cables and thermostat transducer since the fans are mounted on a door but figured it out. The rest is plug and play.
There’s several cooling modes to choose from. I tried them all and ended up using the incremental speed mode. At 80F fan comes on in slow speed. As temp increases, speed increases, and will get to high speed at 100F. Temp is adjustable but this works for the current heat load. Closet usually runs in low to mid 70’s but it’s gone up to 80F on a few occasions. Slow speed kicked in and cooled it back to mid-70’s quickly where it shuts off. I think my Setup could accommodate a lot more heat load.
The fans are louder than I thought even after reading the many reviews noting that. They’re basically CPU cabinet type fans you can install anywhere. Although they do seem louder. Although that could be due to where they’re installed. For my application it’s no concern since the closet is out of the way. Could be a concern if installed in the back of a stereo cabinet or something. There may be some tricks you could use for sound dampening.
Definitely good quality with good features. Just make sure you consider the noise when purchasing.
Wiring is super easy. I bought a two fan system. The instructions say the fans are one way and you have to take one casing apart and flip the fan. Luckily, I checked the air flow before I did that because it was already set up as an intake and exhaust. It looks great now that it's in and works like a champ.

Installation was very straight forward and easy. Templates came a little small so be advised to maybe cut just on the outside of the traced line.
The hub to plug into was not overly big and I located a nice tucked away spot on the side of the cabinet.
The LED screen was easy to use and looks really nice.
My only real complaint is that the fans are a bit on the weak side. However, I do think its sufficient enough to provide fresh air into the cabinet. I have one fan mounted to the bottom to draw cool air in and one near the top to exhaust hot air out.
On the topic of fans, I do appreicate how quiet they are. You can barely hear when they are on.
Overall, I would say if you were in the market for something with a little more flair than your average cabinet fans, then this is for you!
