My friend, who is an electrical engineer, installed the light and he said that the install directions are very poorly written (so beware if you aren’t familiar with installing things like this) other than that, I absolutely love this light and it’s the statement piece of my conversationsitting room! It does have about 4 poles where you can adjust the drop of the chandelier lower or remove the poles to make it higher.  I only used one of the longer poles because the height of the ceiling was only 9feet high.
