while this light is gorgeous, the rods don't give you a ton of flexibility as to how low or high you can hang it. It's perfect if you want a low hanging light for over a table, but not so great for a sitting room. You also have to remove the globes to change the bulbs, which is pretty, but not super practical and made for a lengthy and annoying assembly. Still yet, it's so pretty, I'd probably buy it again.
