came well packaged, no damage, I was impressed how heavy it was, the metal is not flimsy, note there is no glass in sides,,  its all open. so you need to use a attractive bulb.  ,It comes with 4 sections to hang the height you desire.  It has a base plate and mounting plate as on all lights. there is enough wire to thread through hanging rod,   I found threading through each section and joining is only way to thread wires,  if you join all sections first, wires will catch on inside seams,   I feel the quality is well matched for price and would buy again.  .
