We love this light!  We put it in our newly remodeled bathroom and it looks wonderful.  Install really wasn't that bad at all--just a little patience to install the hanging crystals (plastic) but you only have to do it one time.  My husband was able to do most of it by himself, but I helped finish the install and hang the crystals since my hands are smaller.  It does put off a fair amount of heat, but it doesn't bother us.  I may end up buying another one for our closet!
