I've been wanting a sputnik light fixture for years now, but it was hard to pull the trigger- I actually had never purchased a light fixture myself, I've just always kept what came with the home.

I did purchase it after it went on sale and I'm SO pleased with it! This was very easy to install (I did not do it myself, I have a friend that's an electrician that installed it for me) and it looks great with the LED edison bulbs I purchased. I got the 60W equivalents which do make the area incredibly bright, but I don't think that's a bad thing! The fixture is dimmable so I am going to purchase a dimmer switch so I can adjust the brightness, as this is an area we have most of our meals in.

If you've been on the fence about this, consider your sign to go ahead and purchase it!
