I love this pendant! The electrician installed it last week, using my existing pole from the previous light, which was a perfect match (I wasn't too keen on using the cord that came with this pendant, although it is nice in appearance). I absolutely love the dimmer option and also that it will take up to a 100 watt bulb. He also installed a dimmer switch to replace the existing wall switch. I just love the shape of the globe! All in all, I feel that I made a great choice with this pendant.
