This pendant light really makes a statement in my kitchen and I everyone who sees them cannot stop complimenting on them! Even my contractor LOVED these lights! I purchased 3 for above my island, but they are HUGE and I only needed two. I didn't give it 5 stars because one arrived bent, but luckily I had that 3rd one to use as a spare because I absolutely HAD to have these! My ceilings are 10 ft. high, so it was great that the light came with 3 poles that connect together. If your ceilings aren't as high, you can use one or two poles with no problem.
