It looks beautiful above my island. It does come with very long chain and cord, so I can easily see this working for someone with very high ceilings. We were replacing fixture, and had to use the old fixture base, as the one that comes with it was very small, and I did not have much confidence with it

Pros: looks great, and has a lot of chain to set the length you want
Cons: hanging base very small for size of the fixture
