I really like this light fixture! We purchased it to replace a low hanging, head injury causing one in our kitchen so this semi-flush mount was already a winner. It was surprisingly light weight which made installing it really easy. The only issue I have with this light is that you have to completely take off the glass bowl to change the light bulb. It's a little finicky to remove and I worried I was going to drop it the whole time (it helped to have two people not this job but could definitely be done by one). It's not a big enough issue to downgrade my rating at all--changing bulbs is such a rare thing if you buy the right ones and there doesn't seem to be a better way to handle it.
