I am underwhelmed by this light and thought that I could pull it up all the way to the ceiling so I could use it best in my closet that was converted to an office / desk area, but the pulley and light are too close together and I already hung it prior to checking this (totally my fault) but I am not satisfied with the light. I would return it and make my own if I could.... probably will stop buying stuff like this off of the internet.
