This was fine for awhile until it put me in the ER. Had a handy friend install it, and it was difficult but worked out. The screws to mount to the plate are too short. I ended up using my own which were silver and so stand out against the black base. 

The real issue came when I changed the bulbs. I was screwing the nut back on and tightening it so the glass was flush. Next thing I knew, the glass had shattered. I ended up in the ER and got 3 stitches on my forehead. It could’ve been a lot worse, so I’m grateful. The glass didn’t so much as crack before it shattered into a million pieces. I think the glass may have had a fracture because I don’t believe I had screwed it tight enough to cause such a disaster. 

I won’t be replacing this. I’ll look instead for tempered glass, or as little glass as possible.
