Review on Kira Home Broadway Industrial Directional Lighting & Ceiling Fans by Bret Wong

Revainrating 3 out of 5

As good as hoped, better than expected.

It took me a long time to make a choice, reviewed hundreds if not thousands of lamps and settled on this one. I didn't buy right away so I went back and did some more research before buying just to make sure I didn't see anything that suited my needs better and fit both my kitchen and existing other fixtures. I was not disappointed. It was easier to install than I thought (not the first time) and it looks great, illuminating all the areas in the kitchen where I needed light immediately and where I used to have a tasteless fluorescent light there is now just the incandescent bulb . above the sink, above the stove and the dining area. I can upload a photo later, but even if I do, it doesn't quite accurately reflect how it will light up my workspace, as well as the items displayed on my cabinets, it will indicate the room's size and depth, make the room appear taller or taller as if it had higher ceilings and more. It's amazing what the right lighting can do. Very happy with this purchase, would buy more. There is a four bulb option, I bought a three bulb lamp. The dark bronze appears almost black and the worn edges have a very copper tint which is perfect for my kitchen as it has copper utensils and accents throughout, now it has a warm cozy glow as the light hits everything as I tilt it it bounces off copper or other surfaces just like I intended. UPDATE: August 1st, 2020 Got up this morning and turned on my light and only one bulb came on. It hasn't even been two weeks. If they burn out that quickly I can't afford to keep this light because I won't be replacing it every two weeks. That's ridiculous. The seller should send me a brand new set of bulbs free of charge so I can make sure they are bulbs and not a fixture that I pay more for.

Pros
  • Practicality
Cons
  • So far so good
