Was looking for something economical to opererate and get away from the round flourescent tubes and starters. So we purchased one of these lights and put 3 13 watt instant on bulbs that each one equal a 60 watt bulb. Gives us plenty of light in one half of the kitchen, so we purchased another one for the other end of the kitchen. Love them. We have more light than we did with the other light fixtures. I would reccomend this light for someone who wants to light up a bigger area, with some control over the light direction. The seller was quite prompt on delivery.

I needed a light fixture for the kitchen to upgrade the old one since we upgraded the rest of our kitchen in this 1956 home. My dilemma was that the old fixture had two light bulbs hidden inside a frosted glass and didn't throw sufficient light in the kitchen. When you were working at the kitchen counters, you were creating your own shadows on your work which was annoying, especially on cloudy days or in the evenings when it was dark outside.

I selected this light fixture for the three light fixtures with exposed bulb areas to throw light to the areas in my kitchen that needed it. I love the silver finish and the marbled frosted glass. My kitchen has white upper walls with light pine on the lower portion of the walls and pine flooring and white cabinets and when you turn this light on now at night, the entire kitchen area where my countertops are located is now very well light up. The light bounces off the white and it makes for a very nice work area when you are cooking or cleaning in the kitchen.

Not mentioned in the description of the light is whether it will take fluorescent light bulbs which are the only kind of light bulbs we use in our home, we are very energy conscious and try to keep all our utility bills down as low as we can. I emailed the seller and got this response back:

"This fixture uses (3) 60 Watt Medium Based Bulbs. That means they are the regular incandescent bulbs. You can use CFL bulbs, as long as they have a medium base and are not any longer than the incandescent bulbs. Let us know if you have any further questions."

I thanked her for the response and suggested they upgrade the descriptions to show that their fixture will take fluorescents and then ordered this fixture. Many homes (at least I hope) have switched over to fluorescent light bulbs and would need this information before ordering.

I now do not have to add additional lighting to light up areas in the kitchen (like under cabinet lights, over the stove lights, etc.). This worked out perfectly. My husband installed it (that man can do anything) and installation was easy. So, yes, I am very pleased with this light fixture and would recommend it.
