I have read all the reviews here and even on other major shopping sites.  They didn't get very good reviews there when it comes to flimsiness of the fixture. I have to admit the metal that those glass shades are sitting on is very flimsy.  It can be bent so easily that the shade will get crooked too, but I managed to fix the crookedness once I installed the fixture on the wall.  The fixture is rather huge in person and fills very well the tall empty wall once was in our master bathroom. I replaced the Hollywood light fixture with this.  After all I really liked the style and the size for the price.
