Benefits:
+ Very nice design, almost more beautiful than in the photos
+ Flat design, therefore well suited for use in rooms with low ceilings
+ Additional interesting light pattern on the ceiling (Sunbeam similar)
+ Frosted glass dome lightly frosted light (it's so very little brightness thereby lost)
Disadvantages:
- In the box, the light is located in the cheapest and porous polystyrene. The risk of breakage is extremely high. Therefore most equal to the consignor to ask for the original box also very, very well to bolster and "Caution: Fragile" to write on the package.
- The metal brackets are (for whatever reason) already finished at the square pane of glass (very strong) is screwed. This produces a high voltage on the Galsscheibe and the risk of breakage increases further.
- The "hole" for the power cable is very tiny, could be bigger still.
- The terminal strips are on the other end of the lamp, the cable must be wrapped around the cumbersome lamp sockets (no cable routing available)
A little hint for mounting: The best work in threes! The metal plate is screwed directly to the ceiling is around. The glass plate itself is but square and it happens quickly, that the light at the end of "wrong" (ie rotated) hangs from the ceiling. Therefore, first attach the square glass plate to the metal plate and only then drill the holes in the ceiling. Along with the glass plate is the light but very difficult and you can only take seriously. Therefore, the two people should do. The third person then needs to look that the lamp is properly aligned.
Because of the risk of fracture, I had to order a new glass plate, but went smoothly from the dealer quickly without returning the broken goods.
Personally, however, the purchase is recommended in the store, whether the manufacturer changes which on the packaging or the dealer screwed extracting the metal brackets from the glass plate and wrapped additionally very carefully.
But once it is attached, the lamp like it very much !!
Therefore, there is only one star deduction, because the worst negative points are not related to the lamp itself, but on the packaging and unnecessary pre-assembly.
