I replaced an ugly fluorescent light fixture with this.  Although it doesn't throw light everywhere like the old fixture did, after adjusting the angles the lighting is much better where I need it and much more pleasant.  Was easy to install (although I did have to research wiring how-to online) and definitely updates my kitchen.  One thing to note:  notches for the mounting plate did not match up to where I needed them to be so I had to adapt until I can find a different plate or have someone replace/turn the ceiling fixture.  I'm using LED bulbs.
