We purchased this fixture to go in our small mid-century kitchen and it is perfect! It gives off a lot of light (just what I want in the kitchen) and the size is great. We chose the polished nickel. It was shown with 2 different finishes on the site but the finish is the high polish similar to chrome, not a brushed nickel which was a huge relief. I would definitely recommend it, but it was a bear to install. Not sure if that's more to do with our house or the fixture.
