Saint Mossi 5-Lights Modern Raindrop Chandelier, Modern Crystal Height Light Fixture for Foyer, K9 Crystal Tall Chandeliers for Dining Room, Living Room, Chrome Finish Canopy

We installed this beautiful chandelier in our 2 storey foyer ( about 18ft high). Make no mistake the installation was hell but the looks are worth the efforts and pain. The pictures do not do 100% justice but the chandelier is soooooo beautiful. Once installed it makes all your heads turn, we keep the lights on during the day just to enjoy the beauty :) The item came neatly packed in the box and it was 30+ pounds. Several members gave detailed reviews with installation instructions, so it helped us cut out the nonsense and go straight to the required steps. The box came with the chandlier base, cover plate, 115 wires, 115 + 4 crystals, 8 drywall anchors and screws and an instruction sheet. The wires came in pairs in 58 different numbered covers. It will be good to have at least 2 people doing the job. We used gu10 base 50w equivalent LED bulbs. Step1: the cover plate has 115 small round hooks to hang the wires. Start numbering them 1 thru 58 clockwise and 1 thru 58 counterclockwise as shown in the instruction sheet using a sharpie. 15-30 minutes. Step2: at the identified location on the ceiling connect the electrical wires and using the 8 drywall anchors to fix the base to the ceiling. 30minutes, 1hr if you are new to the job. Step3: fix the cover plate to the base and fix the gu10 base bulbs. 15 minutes. Step4: hang 1 crystal to each wire. Make sure the wires are grouped by the numbers on their covers. Keeping the wires according to the numbers is the most important step. 1hour. Step5: the second person can start handing over the wires with crystal to the person on the ladder starting from #1. Make sure the wires are not tangled with each other ( by the way they have a tendency to tangle) when you hang them. 1 to 2 hours. We took help of a handyman to perform steps 2, 3 and 5 since we needed a 20ft tall ladder. The steps 1 & 4 were performed by us. This was a 4hour job from beginning to end for 3 people including handyman. Totally worth all the effort and money. Bonus: if sunlight falls on the chandelier, then you will see beautiful reflections all around the room ( see picture #4).

Beautiful!!! This is the word that I can use to describe this amazing chandelier. It truly is the highlight of my home. It is huge and sparkles like diamonds. The lights are super bright and it looks like diamonds raining from the ceiling. I like how the crystals come individually packaged on the strings so as to not get tangled up. The electrician did have to get help in order to hang it because it is heavy and my ceiling foyer is super high. I like how in the mornings when the sun shines through the picture window it casts rainbows all over the house!! It's amazing. My recommendations would be to make sure whoever hangs it has help, the right supports for the ceiling due to its weight and also make sure they wear the fabric gloves as to not leave fingerprints on the mirrored surface. Another tip would be to spend the extra money to get the led bulbs with the longest life because it will be a task to have the bulbs changed. I think we purchased the 15yr bulbs. Don't hesitate to buy it!!

Perfect I love the chandelier, stay perfect in my family room

We have been looking at this chandelier for a while but were on the fence because of the reviews about the difficulty of assembly. I was under the impression that all the wires all came separately and required assembly. Despite this, the looks finally won out and we ordered it. Perhaps the manufacturer finally listened to the reviews but when it arrived, all the wires were pre-attached to the base. Each was wrapped in a small, individually numbered ziplock bag. I wish I had taken pictures :-( There is one #1 (the center wire), then two of each number up to 58 as they spiral up and out from the center. Super easy! All you have to do after hanging the base is to let the baggies dangle from the center. Again each one is numbered. We started from #1 in the center and worked our way outward. Some reviewers have said to hang the crystals last but we found that the wires hang straighter and are less apt to get tangled if we hung the crystals to each wire as we unspooled them. Just remember to work from the inside out so you don't have to reach through wires that you've already hung. No problem! One hint: when you grab each wire to remove it from the ziplock bag, make sure you hold onto it. Otherwise, it will spring out by itself and get tangled up. Instead, remove it from the bag, then grab each side with your thumb and forefinger so it stays coiled. Then, alternately release one side at a time then regrasp (itsy bitsy spider-style) and allow one revolution of the wire to unspool at a time. This will prevent tangling 90% of the time. If it does get crossed, do not pull! This will kink the wire and, while still usable, it will not look as good as if it were straight. Once fully uncoiled, hang the crystal at the end. The weight will keep the wire straight and will prevent tangling with the other wires. No matter what, you'll inevitably bump a wire and it will tangle with an adjacent one but be patient. It's worth it in the end! Uncoiling and hanging is a two person job. One will have to hand the crystals to the other once the wires are straight. So glad the manufacturer has simplified the assembly process! If you were worried about assembly, don't be. At the end of the day, this is a beautiful chandelier. We got compliments on it from day 1! Hope this helps.

I bough this like 3 years ago and still look really nice the price is perfect I really recommend it it looks really nice and is really tall

Lights came in perfect condition,cant wait to have them fixed and turned on.Also Next day delivery was not expected

This is a beautiful chandelier once you get it installed. Assembling the parts is pretty simple if you follow the instructions, but I found that mounting the actual base was the biggest challenge. We have a typical drywall ceiling with an existing round metal electrical junction box, but the base of this chandelier has 8 screw holes that don't attach to the junction box. So we had to climb into our attic to add some additional 2x4 wood support behind the drywall to match up with where the screw holes would be. That was definitely the most time-consuming part of the install, but after that everything went smoothly and the end result is amazing. Just be sure that you support the base properly into the ceiling, since the chandelier weights about 40 pounds. Overall we highly recommend this if you've got a high ceiling foyer.
