Luxury Large Foyer Chandelier, Modern 12-Lights Round Raindrop Crystal Chandeliers High Ceiling Flush Mount Light Fixtures for Hallway, Entryway, Stairs,Front Entrance D31.5 X H86.7 of CRYSTOP

This light is just as everyone says, more beautiful than the pictures show. We are glad we read the other detailed reviews about using additional security screws. We didn't have any problems with broken or missing parts. This took my husband about 30-45 minutes to install the light mount. That includes trimming up some pieces and finding those additional screws to secure this better to the ceiling. As far as the actually crystals go we found the instructions and organization to be very user friendly. The process was tedious. We thought we would just get started, maybe work on it for thirty minutes or an hour, but once you start you can't bring yourself to stop. We enlisted the help of our kids, and they did great. I HIGHLY recommend having this be a group project. My 6 year old removed all the crystal balls from their packaging, no small task, and then would give them to me when I was ready for them. My 16 year old untangled the wires, and my 12 year old would take each finished strand to my husband on the ladder. I put all the crystal balls on the end of the wire hooks, my fingers were pretty sore by the end but it's not like I needed Band-Aids or anything. Working together with all 5 of us we had the light completed in 2.5 hours. We all started by wearing the gloves to avoid getting finger prints on the crystals, but we took those off about 15 minutes into the project as they were slowing us down. If the sunlight hits the crystals directly and you're standing right next to the light then you can see smudges. Otherwise this is high enough on the ceiling that none of that is noticeable. I will say that when we had it all completed, and it was just before midnight, that I was giddy with how beautiful it looked. However, in the morning I was unpleasantly surprised to realize I forgot to take into consideration the sunlight that came through our front window in the morning and that our entire entry way was filled with rainbow colored lights all over our wall. The effect of this light fixture went from classy to tacky. However, once the sun rose a little bit higher in the sky the disco ball effect passed and our walls cleared up. So now that will be an added bonus, a fun little morning party for whoever is awake early in our house. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. The amount of light this puts off is quite high. So if you have an option to buy low watt bulbs I would definitely go that route. I did some serious price tracking of light fixtures similar to this one and from various companies and I found this fixture and amazon's price to be the most competitive. There were some other fixtures I liked better, but they were 2 or 3 times more expensive. And this one does the job perfectly, especially for the price. Good luck to anyone who buys this! Be sure to read other people's reviews for additional tips and tricks.

The media could not be loaded. I am so glad i went with this light. it is super gorgeous and lights up the entire hallway!! Let me tell you the trick that will save you tons of time. First assemble all the lights and lay them out throughout your house. i started with F and worked my way to A, it made it so much easier to install. i just handed it to the electrician and he clicked it in. this will save you time and money. I ended paying $100 to install instead of $500 plus because i prepared each string myself. the nice thing is you only have to add the crystals on the bottom, the small crystal are already on the string, so it'll save you time also unlike some of the others sold on Amaon

Many reviews stated this is a beautiful chandelier with good price. Indeed! It is indeed time consuming to put it on. It took 5 hours for me and handyman to work together. Use a scaffolding is very necessary. I read one review to suggest buying small hooks. It is an very wise advice and I bought this hooks, link here, Shappy 300 Pieces 0.55 Inch Small S Hooks for Hanging Mini S Hooks Connectors Silver Metal S Shaped Wire Hook Kits with Storage Box for Jewelry Tree Tags Crafts DIY Hanger Ornament Hook https://a.co/d/hJnZ203, and hanging the tiny key chain like ring on the hooks on the plate. It saved at least one hour effort. I bought this light in 2018 and waited for 5 years in 2023 eventually decided to get it on. I do not know if new versions has the hanging box plate, but year 2018 version do not have the plate. The instructions advise to use the drywall nails in package to fix the plate on ceiling. I do not think it is a good idea. My handyman drilled two holes on the chandelier plate to fix it to our existing metal box which is intended for heavy nights. If new versions do not have the plates, I suggest you do the same. This light definitely need to be fixed to a metal electric box. It takes time but the results is rewarding. The crystals used in this product are high quality glass, not the cheap plastic. This makes the final looking very high end looking. Hope this helps. I reviewed others comments prior installation. They are very helpful. Here is my paycheck to those. :).

What a nightmare to assemble and poor quality product. Half of the crystals were chipped and I had to buy another chandelier to have enough good crystals to assemble and half of those crystals were chipped too. The strings get easily tangled as you assemble and hang so you have to be very careful. It took days to assemble and install. The final product is beautiful but if I had known the amount of time and money it would have taken I would not have purchased and/or returned. But once I got started and hired a professional to install I had to keep going! Buyer beware.
