When it arrived, the box had been badly damaged/crushed.  Thankfully, the light had been packaged in another box  inside. It is bigger than what I expected and because it was going in a small space (above kitchen sink, between two cupboards), I feared it might be too big.  But because the drum/cage is open, it doesn't look too big.  The installation is simple however, you'll need an extra set of hands.  I like that the hanging length can be adjusted as I ended up only using 1 of the rods making it hang higher than originally planned because of the size of the light.   I also bought the matching Gaen 2 flush mount which I hung in the center of my kitchen and completes the look. Just beautiful!  I'm extremely pleased.
