I really like this new pendant light. I wanted something easy to clean as we have a woodstove in the kitchen. Also wanted task lighting for my butcher block island. It is 6 ft long and I use it for everything. This give wonderful lighting to the area. We put in 3 100 watt bulbs, but was too much. We had to look away, so ended up putting in 3 - 60 watt bulbs, that was just right. Just what I was looking for.
