This light was exactly what we were looking for in our kitchen: close to ceiling, simple design, and large enough for 300 Watts of light output. The only complaint I have is that the light is difficult to wire and assemble in place. There is no hook, like many ceiling fans now, where you could rest the frame while you were trying to hook up the wires. It really is a two-person job. Installing the glass dome is also a bit of a challenge to get all of the washers and collars lined up while holding the heavy glass. We almost dropped it. But once up, it is exactly what we wanted.

Pros: Attractive Design, Diffused Light

Cons: Hard To Install, Tough To Assemble

Surprised how much it reflects off ceiling. Also missing rubber gasket.

this is my second one for my kitchen
