Great upgrade for a non-sloped ceiling

Love this easy upgrade. I installed a western elm screen. Best for flat ceilings. I also bought in silver for the sloping ceiling and it doesn't fit the ceiling exactly (loose and won't mount flush and shows the edge of the original glass). Black color looks much better than silver.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • No paint required

Can Lights Are Boring

Pendant lights are much nicer than boring recessed lights. I didn't want to go through the hassle of wasting money replacing the fixtures above the kitchen island. These sets are very comfortable and I bought the Lowe's sunglasses. (They have a pretty good selection.) My only complaint is that the lid doesn't fit snugly against the ceiling. There must be a trick, but I can't figure it out. Would recommend anyway.

Pros
  • Best In Their Niche
Cons
  • Unsafe

Installs in 3 minutes, no splicing, no nuts - just bolt on!

We were fed up with our recessed/glass lights and wanted to install pendant lights. We are also transitioning to all polished nickel hardware. The cost of replacing the fittings was ridiculous, so we found them at Revain. They DO NOT include a globe. We were only looking for a light fixture because we had spheres to match our matching chandelier. If you can climb a stepladder/step stool, you can install it. You can adjust them to fit snugly against the ceiling and completely hide recessed…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Brilliant design, poor order fulfillment

They are brilliantly built. Easy to install and suitable for my application. I ordered the first and opted for brushed nickel. It arrived in a bronze color so I double checked I ordered correctly and I chose a brushed nickel. I liked it and ordered another one thinking I would get a brushed nickel. If it arrived as I ordered, I could choose between two and return one. Well I received it within a day of ordering and it was bronze too. What the hell? But I like it so there are two bronze…

Pros
  • High score for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Has issues

GAME CHANGE! on lighting and ceiling fans

These instant pendants are GAME CHANGING! With our hands tied as to how much we can renovate in our new rental, I turned to Worth Home to update our "new" dated kitchen. In less than 1/2 hour 5ft 1in ME installed them both without the help of an electrician or my fiancé. These hanging conversion kits are great value, great quality and EASY to install. Their customer service is EXCELLENT (I've had several conversations with co-founder Laurie, who was not only super responsive and helpful, but a…

Pros
  • Even vintage cars understand
Cons
  • Good but not great
