The 12-light fixture looks so good in our mid-century modern home dining room.  We did have our electrician install a dimmer switch.  The brightness is terrific when needed and ample for seeing, with the option of less intensity also.  The size is perfect.  Not too big, not too small.  The quality is very good.  Plenty of chain length too.  Couldn't be happier with this reasonable priced fixture.  A great choice.
