The light was a good choice to replace an older style light. We needed two of them. Pro: The brass finish is attractive and the style is nice. The first light we received was damaged but wayfair's replacement policy made receiving a replacement a snap! Cons: The metal is too thin of a gauge and easily distorts. The brass face is held against the wall with only two screw caps. This is not enough for a fixture this long (48") and so flexible. The weight of the lights tend to pull the top of the face away from the wall. Wiring the fixture is doable but awkward. Probably would not order these particular ones again.
