I've waited over 2 years to purchase a light like this for my entryway and I wish I'd done it sooner. The installation was super easy and it looks better than I imagined. The shape allows it to cast a beautiful pattern throughout the entire room. A major plus is that one of the "cones" opens up allowing you to clean inside the glass and also allows you to changes bulbs without removal of any part of the fixture. All in all I would say it's worth every penny as the quality is excellent, it can be used in any room, and the brightness of the bulb provided was perfect.
