overall if you are looking for this kind of design aesthetic that sits flush on the ceiling and is affordable, i would recommend this and was happy with my purchase. that being said, it didn't really seem to come with instructions or the proper install hardware. my father had to help me install it as he had experience with installing light fixtures previously and was able to work out what needed to be done. it will be extremely cumbersome to replace the lightbulbs because you must completely unscrew the unit from the ceiling to put the lightbulbs in (and they were a tight fit / it was difficult to install the lightbulbs). i used LED bulbs so i don't expect to need to change them for a very long time and overall i love how it looks now, but i was fortunate i had knowledgeable people to help me get it properly installed which is why i can't give it 5 stars.
