I needed a low profile flush mount that my front door wouldn't hit. Installed it myself in about 20 minutes (Girl. No electrical experience). The only finicky part is attaching the glass cover with the 3 metal arms. The arms are not aligned perfectly, so it took a lot of sweet talking and some brute force to get the screws in. I'd like to change the lightbulbs to something warmer, but the prospect of unscrewing again is daunting.
