So, I'm that guy afterall? Heh. I enjoy the distinction. I'm actually rather relieved you replaced those fixtures. I'd have hated to put that in your head and helped you to start disliking them.

That bathroom was completed in September of 2005. We knew immediately that those lights didn't work but the subsequent light fixtures did work. I'm trying to find a pic and when I do, I'll post it. Outside of that pic, I'm not sure if anyone actually saw that fixture outside of me, my wife and now Chiefsplanet. So I'm sure there would have been others that would have commented on that particular fixture, so no worries.

The main concern for my wife in that bathroom was lighting. There isn't much (if any) natural light in that bathroom so we had eight 4" can lights, two exhaust fan lights and a Sola-Tube installed. The Sola-Tube was pure genius, because it allows so much natural light to flow through the room. But the bigger issue wasn't light during the day but adequate lighting for make-up and whatnot at night. So our first concern was the number of lights on each vanity fixture.

And I'm with you on ceiling fans. It just takes time to look and find the right fan/lighting combo but fortunately, there are plenty of resources available via the internet.
