DESIGNERS FOUNTAIN 2-Light Flush Mount Ceiling Light, 11 Inch Lighting Fixture for Kitchen, Bedroom, Bathroom, and Hallway, White Alabaster Glass, Pewter, 1257S-PW-AL

I guess over the years this is at least the 12 ceiling light I have purchased of this exact model on Amazon. Even purchased a few different diamters.Why I like it so much:1. Price - value. Really hard to beat at this price point for what you're getting.2. The lamp cover is actually a really nice smokey glass.3. Brightness, it will hold up to 2 light regular light bulbs. I find one bulb to be just be fine. I use LED bulbs.4. Ease of installation. It comes with all the hardware needed. Depending on how you install it you might not require using some installatiion parts. Disclaimer, like all overhead ceiliing light installations, you need to take your time understanding it does require some patience.Now this is just my humble opinion, but I do hope it helps others in making an informed decision...

I bought 3 of these lights. The light comes with all the standard trimmings: screws to install, a universal support, a few wire nuts. The light is lower profile than I anticipated. Nonetheless, I was able to put 3 75 watt CFL's in the housing.The screws to mount the universal support to the electric box were a little less optimal IMO. They were a little too thin to grab my '70's junction box screw holes. Additionally, they were a little short for my liking. Having a slightly longer screw makes it easier. And finally, the shoulder on the screw isn't as big as I would like in relation to the hole size in the fixture. So I went to the garage and grabbed some better screws. I highly recommend this! highly! Just test the screws on the junction box holes, if they hold, run to lowes to buy the same size, just a half inch longer. It you have the same issue I had, up it in size and length.The holes in the fixture were a perfect match for the electrical boxes I was installing in, so I didn't use the universal support. I put my 2 screws in the junction box, as far out as possible. Then I used the wire nuts to connect the 3 wires, making sure to twist until the insulating sections of the wire were twisted.Now to mount, I use the worlds best know trick and stick a screw driver through the mounting plate and the insulation and put the tip on the screw. Then move the fixture up on the screw driver and viola placement and fastening is simple.Results are good. I had a darker than desired hallway, bedroom, and living room. I put 'bright white' CFL's in all of them. I upgraded from 60 watt equivalent to 75 watt in the hallway because it was still too dark.Now, I'm happy.The finish on the fixture is VERY weak. Even water marked it. I needed to get a lightly damp cloth to wipe down the marks from my wet hands. So after you wash your hands, dry them before moving onto the next one.Now that it's up, it looks great! If it gets scratched up while installed on the ceiling then I'll be out another $20. Cheap fixture, easy install, looks great!

Nice light. Install wasn't bad with the most difficult part being the finding of the two holding screws that have to go through the insulation. Two screwdrivers holding them in place did the trick though. Two people made it go much easier too.

Installing this fixture is a bit of a pain, since the the screws to fix the base to the ceiling box easily pass through the plastic holes and get lost in the insulation. If you accidentally over tighten a screw the plastic easily deforms. The easy fix is to get a couple of washers and put them between the screw and plastic base. With this trick, installation is a breeze.Overall, it's a very nice fixture for the price, especially the frosted glass cover (since I was expecting plastic). I wanted to install a fixture where I could use LED bulbs and change them as needed. I considered getting an LED fixture, but did not want the hassle of changing the whole fixture when the LEDs stopped working.

It was cheaper to buy an entire light fixture than just a replacement shade. This shade was not as deep as the original shade but still worked well. I like the alabaster finish on the glass. I purchased a returned item since I just wanted the shade.

excellent purchase

I bought several of these fixtures and installed them all at the same time. The manufacturer prepared them well so it was easy to do. They are nice units that provided me easily with an upgraded look. I only wish that the final securing piece (the little threaded fob that attaches to the bottom of the glass bowl to hold it all in place) had some kind of raised ridges for an easier grip for twisting on and off. It’s a minor thing that I don’t fault them for because many manufacturers do the same thing, but, still, it would be nice. At the end of the day, these are attractive pieces that I’m glad I installed.

cheap and effective - used to fill in for a chandelier seller was taking

Got 3. They look amazing, neat and in sync. With 2 light bulbs each, they give decent light.

Love this light! Use all the pieces when installing it instead of trying to use the ones from the previous light. That is what they are there for. :)

De buen tamaño y a excelente precio, se ve calida la recomiendo

Me encantaron, la relación calidad-Precio es la mejor que se puede encontrar, son fáciles de instalar, tienen un herraje de 10 centimetros que se atornilla a la caja metálica, lo único complicado es que entren los tornillos que van del plato al herraje, ya que cuenta con insulación o fibra de vidrio, estorba un poco, pero solo basta con hacerla un poco grande de los agujeros donde entrarán los tornillos, adjunto varias imágenes de los detalles para que se aprecie mejor, recomendadas 100%

Exactly as I wanted. But I can buy the same thing at the Local home hardware for the same price I figured out later
