When I received this light it was packaged really well to protect it. It looks exactly like picture and is very nice looking light. I only gave 4 stars because one of the sockets did not work. Luckily my husband is an electrician and was able to take it down and take apart the socket and fix it. If not it would have been pain to have to exchange it. Overall I am still glad I purchased it as it looks really good in my newly remodeled bathroom. I have it over a 60” vanity and it is plenty of light even with only 40 Watt bulbs.
