This is a very nice looking light fixture. It came well packaged and includes all the items needed to mount it. I replaced a single bulb fixture in my bedroom closet and the difference is amazing.

This flush mount light was inexpensive and just what I needed to update the original one in my hallway. It matches all of my recently updated hardware, and provides much better lighting than the old one. Looks more expensive than it really was. Liked it so much I bought a second one for my downstairs hallway. The finish is great, the color true oil rubbed bronze and the globe definitely helps with providing the additional lighting. Highly recommended

Very nice light. The brown base has a bit of texture which is nice. I was worried about the glass bowl not letting enough light through but not a concern. I put two 60 watt bulbs in each of the five lights I bought and they light up each room nicely.

This replaced a similar sizes fixture in our bedroom that used a hard to find twin tube circular fluorescent light. The expense of the tube was almost as much as the new fixture. The same problem others had with aligning the screws through the foam material was minimized by using the other contributor's suggestion to use a long phillips screwdriver to punch a hole through the foam and then install the screw. The great thing about this fixture is that you can use incandescent or led bulbs with a standard base.

Replacing old ceiling lights that have amber shades with these with the white swirl shade. Looks cleaner and provides more light. Was hoping they would look more fancy than the plain brown oil rubbed bronze like you see on the faucets and such in the store but they are just a plain brown color but high up they look like a darker brown so not that big a deal, just not a deep oil rubbed bronze that I would have liked better.Though until doing research I was not aware that these are called "boob" lights and hated by many people. Learning this makes me wish I had taller ceilings (I think ours are about 7 feet tall) so I could install different fixtures in the different rooms. I will never be able to look at these lights the same way after learning what some people refer to them as. Though on HGTV I have seen these "boob" lights in homes that were selling for over 300,000 so maybe it's not that big a deal. So besides that they are fairly easy to install once you get the hang of it. We had to take 2 screw drivers and hold the screws while we pushed the light up in place to install and you have to twist each side the opposite way so it locks before screwing in.

I needed a new glass for a DF fixture from 2005. They changed things too much to use the glass from this fixture. If I felt like replacing the entire fixture, this one would have worked fine. The price was very good.

We wanted to change-out 4 ceiling lights almost exactly like the Designers Fountain Reedley Collection 2 flush-mount ceiling light. The previous lights were nickel "color". The new bronze lights are exactly what we wanted! They were easy to install, and provide good light (function very well).

Looks good - light is more yellow than the bulbs are because of the shade so if you're doing makeup under it you should probably be aware of that. If you want a nice warm colored light in your bathroom, it's really good. I have CFL bulbs in it.

It looks/works fine for what my usage is. Gives off plenty of light if you use CLEAR bulbs.

I was able to install by myself with minimal effort. All of the installation hardware was included and instructions were clear. I had previously put in several of the same series, now all my lights match. I love these, the light is good and the fixtures look elegant! Inexpensive but nice option.

So far so good! I have installed this fixture 2 weeks ago for my home renovation, and it looks and performs amazing. I used the EcoSmart 60W Equivalent Soft White A19 Basic Non-Dimmable LED Light Bulb (8-Pack), also sold by HD, and they work great, the room is brighter than ever. Easy install the only difficult part is to line up the mounting screws with the fixture canopy. It's difficult to see through all the fiber glass insulation. I used to Phillips head screwdrivers through the canopy, touched the mounting screws on the ceiling mount with the screwdrivers and pushed the fixture to the ceiling.

The lights were easy to install and look so nice in the hallway. I had been wanting to change my fixtures for a while and I'm glad I finally did with these. They were a great option and very affordable. Can't wait to get the next project started.

    Easy to install, quick. Good quality.
    Easy install, use two + screwdrivers thorugh the two mounting holes so the insulation is not an issue,s slides right into place. Slight stiws and the fixture stays put. Easy as pie once you get the hang of it. Fixtures look good. Reasonable price.
