Perfect chandelier for my living room!  I was looking for a wide chandelier for a large room and this works beautifully.  The white shades add a bit of interest and class to this otherwise simple and understated light fixture.  I wanted an "airy" light that would not block the view across the room and out our wall of windows - just what I was hoping for.  My husband put it up with no difficulty as the chandelier is light weight and easy to install.  The price was so reasonable - I almost spend hundreds more on a similar light at a local lighting store.  I would recommend this chandelier!
