Medium product - lighting and ceiling fans

A few things that caught my eye: The image showing the dimensions of the fixture includes the length of the bulbs in its measurement. This is somewhat misleading as the light is not as great as the image suggests. Many photos look questionable due to the size of the light. It was too small for our room. One of the long arms hangs lower than the others. I've tried tightening the backing but it still hangs a little lower. It's small but noticeable. The guy who did the installation commented on the thickness of the wires. He had doubts about the gauge of the wires and the ability to handle 360 watts of power. He showed me the wire gauge of the chandelier we were replacing and the wires were much thicker. The old chandelier was only 200 watts. That worries me the most. Will this thing burn down my house? The plan is to use LED bulbs to reduce power consumption. The packaging was interesting, you won't see this type of packaging in a retail store. The box of the product was a plain white box with a sticker with a light on it. Usually the packaging contains all possible texts/descriptions and pictures of the product. When you see this type of packaging at Home Depot, you would think it was an open box. The brushed nickel looks the same as the brushed nickel on other products I've bought for my home. Shipping took a few days longer than expected, but I can deal with that. I think the price of the product might be $25-$35 more than it should be. I paid $100.
