Really cute light.  We used above a bed that had an off-center electrical box and no switch to it. We chose this light because it's cute and because it could operate by remote.  The canopy is large enough that we were able to cover the off-center hole without patching the ceiling.  The light is time consuming to put together but it went together well and was relatively easy to hang.  It did take two of us. It's a lot heavier than you would think. The instructions are easy enough to follow. You will need two AAA batteries for the remote. We haven't figured out everything on the remote yet but it works!
