I purchased this chandelier for our dining room. I am super impressed with this product! Despite other reviews, the included instructions were fine. This thing looks AMAZING! Everything is glass/crystal (including the arms) or metal (including the "candles").It took me about 30 mins to assemble the main portion of the chandelier which consists of the "shaft" and a few "bowls" and the arms. No problem running the wire through the shaft. As far as the complaints about the wires not being different colors, on side of the wire pair is flat and the other side is rounded. I just made sure I matched them up. You will need to strip extra end off the wires, though. There is a chrome bowl that will hide the connections between the main pair and the arm pairs. Since you're going to be twisting together 7 wires twice (one set for hot and one set for neutral) and wrapping w/ electrical tape, it isn't going to look pretty until you put on the chrome bowl, but there is plenty of room in there to fit your two big electrical tape-wire messes.Once the arms were on, I went ahead and hung it. I also had a plastic can in the ceiling from my previous chandelier, but it was the kind with the threaded hollow screw through a bracket that the previous fixture screwed onto (this one has a round plate w/ a hook on it). I just unscewed the bracket, removed the screw, and put the hook through the hole then re-mounted the bracket... Worked fine.Like everyone else, I did the rest of the assembly (installing bulbs, hanging crystals, candle "bowls", metal "candle" socket covers, etc.) after it was hung which took about 30 mins. Hardest part of the whole process was holding the chandelier in the air while trying to put up the ceiling medallion I purchased seperately (I just used the canopy to hold up the medallion. Unless you're planning on cussing a lot and taking a lot of breaks because your arms are tired, glue up your medallion first. Don't do what I did). I used 40W-equivalent LED bulbs and it's plenty bright. It'll take up to 60W bulbs, though.This chandelier looks like it cost WAY more money than it actually did, so if you need a larger chandelier (this 6 arm one is 28"x28"), don't cheap out to save 10 or 20 bucks like I almost did. All of these value-priced chandeliers are made in China anyway, but Saint Mossi seems to have taken the guesswork out and picked solid products, their QC department inspects them prior to boxing, and the instructions are in English. Since I was buying something sight unseen, it was worth the extra few bucks to make sure that there was actually a company to stand behind this product.EDIT: One more thing... The canopy for this is 4.33 inches wide. I bought an Ekena medallion with a 3.5" inner diameter hole and it worked great (you want the canopy to be a little bigger than the center hole). My medallion was also 1.5" thick. You won't be able to go with one any thicker unless you get a longer "rod" (the one going through the canopy that also goes on the hook you'll be attaching to your ceiling box). TIP: The rod you put onto the hook at the top has pieces on both ends (hook end and chain end) that unscrew quite a ways before coming off. If you have the courage like I did, you can unscrew both of those pieces to lengthen the rod without taking them all the way off to give you room when hanging. Afterwards, you can spin the chandelier to screw the pieces all the way back on shortening the rod. Just be careful screwing the chandelier back in so that you don't twist the wire too bad (if I had to do it over again, I would have twisted up the wire in the opposite direction a bit so that it would've untwisted as I spun the chandelier).Our electrician friend installed this for us, we put it outside, under cover of our new pergola. Not rated for exterior use but in our experiment it will last at least 5 years. Really looks quite upscale on our deck!This is a beautiful chandelier and amazing value for money, I searched in a lot of shops before buying this and nothing came close for the money! It does need assembling and it will take about an hour but I came well packaged and labelled with good instructions. I found a you tube video that helped with assembly and we did get an electrician to install it but it was not hard.This is absolutely beautiful. It has a modern contemporary feel. I’m in love with this chandelier. You can’t go wrong especially with the price. It sparkles oh so pretty. I have received many compliments on it already. My suggestion is don’t use LED light bulbs as it takes away from the beauty of it. Use clear cheaper bulbs.This compares or beats any high priced high end fixtures and believe me I’m picky. Don’t hesitate. Buy itArrived very quickly.It is a very beautiful chandelier and all the ornaments are made from glass (K9 crystals?). Only the 6 arms are plastic (acrylic?). I think it make sense to not make them in glass to avoid breakage.The installation instructions are not very useful. Look at the pictures in the amazon product page to understand where the things should go!I am also uploading few pictures to help out with installation.Seller is very useful with few questions that I had.I will recommend this to a friend.Il lampadario è di grande effetto. Sembra molto più costoso e illuminato fa una luce stupenda ed elegante. Il montaggio è facile e intuitivo. La struttura di base con gli stop l'ho fatta mettere all'operaio poi i pendenti li ho messi io con pazienza. Ci sono degli anellini apri e chiudi per ogni pendente quindi è stato facile. L'imballo era accurato e tutti i pezzi sono arrivati sani e salvi. Lo consiglio perché penso che abbia un ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.This chandelier looks like it const hundreds of dollars more than it did. It is the crowing touch for our formal dining room. When the light shines through the crystals it casts multi-colored starbursts on the wall and adds to the beauty of the piece and confirms to anyone that sees it that this is not some cheap plastic product. For this price you can expect to pay ALOT more. The instructions could be better but ultimately the connection and the assembly are intuitive and it didn't take more than an hour for us to hang it.
