A ceiling fan exerts a lot more force on an electrical box than a light or other ceiling hung fixture, because it moves constantly and has a greater weight.

May be loose where it attaches to ceiling. Possible to wedge something between base and ceiling. For the wobble, a balance kit is available that is a small weight that sticks to the blade that is out of balance. There is a clip that can be cliped on the edge of the blade and moved along the length to find the right spot for the weight. Try one blade by putting the clip in the middle of the blade on the edge, turn it on and see if it gets better or worse. Do this to each blade and you will find the one that is out of balance. Clean the blades first, it may just be dust buildup.
First remove the fan. check to see if the rough in box is loose and make sure a box that is fastened between the joist bays has been used. I cant tell you how many homeowners try to mount to a regular work box. Next make sure the mounting plate for the fan if there is one is lagged to the joist. If there is still play in the fan. make sure all the blades are tight. some times a loose blade or a blade installed the wrong way will throw it out. You should probably do this step first.
Most fans come with balancing weights. If you have none now, it's possible to use plasticine or modelling clay. Possibly the most difficult thing is deciding WHICH blade needs the weight. I'd suggest numbering them discreetly and then applying a small weight to each in turn to see if balance improves.

There are many different types of ceiling lights. Examples of ceiling lights include flush, chandeliers, round, and square lights. A ceiling fan doubles as ceiling lights and a fan.

you fix the light on the ceiling fan by puting a new light bulb in your fan
The most appropriate ceiling fan for a large room would be a large one. This is because the larger the ceiling fan, the more air will be blown throughout the room.
it would most likely become unstable and wobble out of control
A ceiling fan wobbles if it is unbalanced. You can fix it by taping or gluing a small weight to the blade opposite to the one that appears to be the lowest as it is spinning.
It's a fan that hangs from your ceiling.
That is the correct spelling of the word "wobble" (to teeter or waver).
A ceiling fan that mounts directly to the ceiling with no down-rod.

It should not be necessary to 'break in' a ceiling fan.
I think this has an electric fan clutch. If it does then check to make sure it is bolted on good and if that isn't the case then a wobble would indicate a bad fan clutch.
There is no actual real significant difference, besides the color. A black ceiling fan works the exact same as a white ceiling fan. Of course, the brand of the fan might make a difference, though the color of the fan will not.
Ceiling fans can be beautiful and enhance the value of your home. They also go a long way in cooling your home and keeping utility bills low. If you know nothing about ceiling fan installation then consider a professional electrician as the wiring could be tricky. If you know a little about wiring, the you can do it yourself. Pay attention to how the old ceiling fan is wired and replicate it whenever possible. Be sure to secure the fan firmly to the hanging bolts. Also make sure that your ceiling fan is the right size for the dimensions of your room.
