This is the only fixture in our bedroom (aside from the lighting in the ensuite) and it is very much sufficient though not as bright as I'm used to when getting dressed.  No complaints - it's not dim; it's actually more flattering than brighter lights are when I look in the mirror.  It was tough to install though.  I tried on my own and almost made it - then realized I had a metal washer instead of a plastic washer next to the glass.  When I had help, it went up fairly easily - but you really have to concentrate on what you're doing and a good memory is helpful for getting everything on in the right order.  Helpful hint:  put it together before you attempt to install it (and then disassemble it before actually installing it).  Make sure that all the parts fit on the spindle and that the spindle is both long enough and short enough - or when you put the end cap on, the fixture will wobble and you'll have to adjust the spindle in place which is harder to do.
