Pretty simple to put together, takes a minute with all the arms and wires but not too bad at all. Looks fantastic and the 6 bulbs provide a ton of light in what used to be a pretty dark finished attic space with a single bulb fixture and a East facing window (so only direct light in the morning). Definitely recommend getting some type of stylish bulbs since they are fully exposed - I got Edison LEDS and they are perfect. Even in this low ceiling room it doesn’t feel too big - just starting setting up this space as an office, still a mess and a ways to go but this light makes it feel like an intentionally put together space!
