This is a smart clean looking chandelier that immediately updated our dining room space.  It seems to be well-made and substantial, not flimsy, but (as other reviewers have stated) may require two people when pushing the canopy onto the two mounting posts.  One person needs to hold the chandelier while the other eyeballs how to turn and lift it.   If you don't want to see the seams on the 3 drum shades, be sure to turn the fixture towards a wall before affixing it to the mounting posts because the fixture cannot be turned once hung.  The diffuser is plastic but looks nice and does the job - makes it very easy to change bulbs.  We are happy that this fixture is dimmable, a nice option for a dining room.  Our dining room is 13'x13' so the 24" chandelier is the perfect size and proportion for the room.  It's GREAT that several downrods in two lengths are included to make the height adjustment easy when hanging.  Overall, we are pleased with our purchase and would definitely buy again.
