Love the look of this new chandelier, which matches the new nickel colored curtain rod. It took 2 of us 2 hours to install. Directions could have been better, but am now wondering if we should have put the chandelier together first, on the floor, then hung it, instead of installing it from the top down, although that would have made it even heavier to hold over our heads! The one thing we had to do different, was screw the little ball screws in from the bottom, vs the top(as directed), as they would not hold otherwise.
