Really nice in person, works great, but the installation instructions were not good. We have installed several new fixtures before but had trouble with a couple of different steps. First, we had to figure out how to modify the length from the ceiling, which would be easy with the right instructions. (Hint: the internal threading screw pieces on the metal sections can be unscrewed and removed, then reinserted to any piece to get the configuration you need.) Also, to run the wires through all the narrow tubes, be sure to unscrew everything so you only have to pass the wires through one small piece at a time. Finally, good luck with how to get the fixture attached at the ceiling ring... still not sure how we did it! 
Besides the installation, the lamp is great. It casts as much light as our old six fixture "up sconce" dinner light. The fabric is a nice texture and the whole thing just blends in effortlessly while providing lots of light.
