I bought this fan/thermostat combo to cool a cabinet with some electronics. The materials are of good quality and craftsmanship (solid metal plate, exceptional paint job, large, quiet fan, screen protector) and has nice accessories (plastic templates that make mounting both the fan and the thermostat a snap, all the bolts and nuts you'll, nice printed manual).
I did run into a few issues however. First the fan I received was set as an intake fan and I (like I would suppose the majority of users) wanted it to be an exhaust fan. Happily I checked this BEFORE installation, so I didn't have to uninstall everything to switch the fan. There's no electronic way to switch the fan direction, instead I had remove the faceplace and the back grill and swap them, which has the effect of reversing the fan. No big deal but I had to research how to do this and the whole switcheroo cost about 15 minutes of my time.
The second issue I found was after installation, the fan would make loud clicky noises at both low and medium speeds. So oddly the fan was louder at the slower fan speeds. I did a quick video and email it to AC Infinity's support and they got back immediately and confirmed that the thermostat was defective and shipped a new one that day. Really, really outstanding service. I received the replacement thermostat a few days later, swapped it in, and everything worked great.
The thermostat has four modes to choose from: On, Off, and two smart modes with change the fan speed based on the temperature. A single fan is keeping my cabinet cool, but I could daisy chain on more fans in the future if necessary. That's a nice option.
Overall, I highly recommend this! The comfort level exceeded expectations. It fits perfectly in our space.
