I had to wait to review this wonderful chandelier because we are under construction.  I read all the reviews about how LARGE it is and that it needed be in a large space.  SO true!  I am delighted with this chandelier.... so many compliments from friends as we post renovation pictures.  I wanted to be sure it was bright enough for the foyer - and if it wasn't, I planned to add a new window above the door.  So we painted the ceiling and hung it quickly to see.  Amazing!  So bright it filled the space perfectly but was not glaring.  I was concerned that it would make me squint... haha! It is just right.  My husband installed it for me - it is a wired in chandelier and not a plug in swag, just so you know.  It is very light, which made installation that much easier. Now to keep it safe during construction!  I am so impressed with this chandelier.
