I bought two of these lamps for a bar/lounge area that also has the matching pendant light over a bar table. I am very pleased with the modern, stylish look of these lamps (and at such an affordable price). The only negative is that one of the lamps is not as sturdy as the other one as the base is a little crooked or something. However, it is my choice not to deal with returning and replacing it. Overall, I am very pleased with the lamps and recommend them because the look is fantastic and such a bargain!

I bought this lamp for a friend of ours that is a big 49ers fan. She has a lot of things but not a lamp. She really liked it and it is now one of her favorite 49ers favorite things.

This fixture is very pretty when installed but the parts are fragile and of relatively poor quality.

The rings holding the crystals are very thin and many were bent open when the fixture arrived.

It took a bit of time to get it put back together properly. However, it is very pretty and the cost was reasonable.

Great, great chandelier! I am so happy with my purchase. This light is perfect for my bedroom. It's now the focal point and it makes me smile every time I look up at it! You can put this chandelier in a bedroom, den, little girls room that has a princess theme. A must buy. I caught this at the right time and for the perfect price.

I bought two of those for the tiny (25 sq ft) bathroom. Honestly, one would be sufficient. Easy to install. Changing bulbs is rather difficult. I would like to emphasize the light is bright. The design is beautiful. Well constructed fixture. It looks more expensive than it is.

Well made and easy to clean. The quality is to my expectation and more. The glass shade is substantial and gives off great light.

This was easy to install but had a somewhat cheap looking finish. Like a DIY spray painted finish. Cheap enough that I shouldn't have expected much more I suppose...

Quorum International 62-01-144 Traditional / Classic Single Light Review

Quorum International 62-01-144 Traditional / Classic Single Light Mini Pendant from the Hemisphere Collection, Toasted Sienna
Customer Ratings: 5 stars

I installed the light a week ago and am using an LED dimmable bulb in warm white to accentuate the color of the amber scavo glass shade. It looks great over my sink and adds just the right amount of light to the area. The light kit contains several lengths of metal sheaths for the electrical wire to set the height of the lamp from the ceiling, but I only needed one of the long ones since my ceiling is only 8 feet high. It warms up the kitchen with a nice glow, while giving light to the area below where I can wash dishes or wash fruits and vegetables. Make sure you use a compact, A15 size bulb or it will stick out below the shade. I went to Lowes and bought the Utilitech 4.5 watt clear LED bulb. Also, be very careful when installing the shade or your fingernails and/or tools might scratch the shade on the outside since the scavo glass is a painted glass shade. Overall, in my opinion, this is a well made lamp and I expect to enjoy it for a long time.

The perfect lamp for well focused light. Very bright. The only thing to be aware of is the light "color" is very white.

Good base and heavy enough to handle the extension of the lamp horizontal.

Very happy!!

I would like to add that this is the perfect light for your bedtime reading. The heavily weighted bases is small enough (5" diameter) to fit on the headboard shelf and the long gooseneck allows you to direct the light where it is needed while keeping it controlled and not bothering your partner.

This light is absolutely perfect for my needs. It's got a small footprint and a bright light that can be moved to exactly where it's needed, leaving me plenty of room for reading materials and lots of light on the reading matter and the keyboard but not on the laptop or monitor itself.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Modern designed lighting can be very hard to find, reasonably priced even more so. Golden Lighting's fixture was well made throughout, which made installation a breeze. I should clarify, if you're comfortable installing a new or replacement light fixture, then installation is a breeze. If you're not, prepare to be adventurous or hire a qualified electrician. Installation should take more than one hour. the size of the shades limits the type of bulbs one can use. Because of the orientation, upside down, and trapped heat, you NEVER would want to use CFLs or even LED bulbs in this fixture. Regular A19 will fit of course, but one can also use j-type tubular bulbs. The tubular bulbs have the advantage of emitting light from a cylinder in all directions whereas an A19 emits light in almost every direction including up. Light travelling up is just blocked by the top of the shade and therefore wasted. A 75W tubular bulb will be as bright or brighter than an 100W A19.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My first impressions when opening the box to a $200 light was that it was packaged sufficiently to arrive un-damaged. The styrofoam inside is the softer kind that can be dented easily with slight pressure, but was sufficient to have kept everything inside in good shape. All the parts and pieces were individually wrapped in plastic and easy to remove from the packaging. Curiously there was a red nylon stranded string under a sticker on the outside upper corner of the box that led to a plastic bag on the inside top of the foam lid piece that contained the nuts, screws, washers and electrical box parts. I have never seen a parts bag packaged this way before. Perhaps they were left out in the initial run of the manufacturing & packaging and added later.

Upon removing the parts from the plastic bags on each piece it was evident that the fit and finish were good. 'Made in China". But good quality. The finish is well done. The fixture has some weight to it. Not too much that installation would be more difficult, but just enough that it didn't feel cheap. The shades are very nice. I had to handle then very carefully as they feel slightly more fragile than your standard round or oval shade. Square shaped shades usually feel more fragile to me anyways.

Installation is pretty straight forward. You attach a mounting bracket to the electrical box. The bracket has two screws that have threads that face out towards you. The screws are aligned horizontal from each other. The fixture then is placed over the screws and secured to the bracket with two round nuts that are threaded over the two screws. One of the more challenging steps in installing vanity lights for me has been to install the shades. Especially smaller or square shades. It is often hard to get your hand up into the shade to screw on the round retaining ring that holds the shade up tight to the light rail arm. The rings are usually thin and awkward to hold while trying to screw onto the porcelain threads of the light socket. Often a lot of friction between the two parts makes it more difficult to get them started correctly without cross threading them and having to loosen and try again. One great thing about this light kit is that it includes a plastic retaining ring tool that makes this installation process much easier. I find that if you add a dab of lubricating oil or even olive oil to the threads of the ring, it will line up and thread much more easily onto the socket. After you get the shades on you can then install the bulbs which would also be a safeguard against the shades falling off as a bulb is larger than the hole in the top of the shade.

Uses standard electrical wiring nuts. It helps to have someone holding the light while you attach the hot, neutral and grounding wires. You can tape or secure a hand towel or like material to the fixture to prevent it from scratching your wall or mirror while it is hanging down. Make sure your switch is off and better yet turn the breaker off. Hopefully you will have enough light from other sources to see well. The base of the fixture is a standard size footprint.

Lit up. They look great. 360 watt bulbs in the white shades makes for a soften glow. I installed them on a dimmer switch and they looked good thru all levels of brightness.

Pros:

Quality materials and workmanship

Appears to be a lasting finish

Looks better in person than in pictures

Easy to install

Cons:

Instructions could be better. Especially for someone who has never installed a vanity light before.

Hope this review was helpful in some way. Goodluck with your shopping.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program How great could a light be?

The most surprising thing about this piece is that the three lights extend out from the wall a bit more than my other bathroom lights, just enough more to avoid that weird bounce back off the mirror, and not so far that they give you big shadows under your eyes. So the lighting looks natural and you don't get glare when you apply mascara.

The glass is thick, heavy, and gorgeous...the base of the glass is designed so you don't see the icky flourescent swirly light bulbs either (good for the environment, ugly to look up at...they get dusty too!). The metal is well finished and doesn't feel like a cheap surface metal covering up plastic. Sometimes a pewter finish can look cheap and dull, this has a matte but luminous finish and feels good.

Installation was a breeze and the instructions and all the parts were actually understandable. Five minutes to install!

My only suggestion (having learned this from a ceiling fan disaster) is to make sure your installation is to an electric box supported by a stud or cross piece, NOT simply into the drywall. This is a heavy set and the electrical box alone may not support it.

I hope you find this review helpful!

Honest reviews on Nelio Vanity Lights

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We have a small, windowless full bathroom that we've partially remodeled meaning that we've installed a cool, modern Italian vanity/mirror, but haven't done the rest of the bathroom. We've tried various bathroom light fixtures in the bathroom with so-so success (great aesthetics, poor light source).

This 3 light fixture is modern enough looking to work with our vanity/mirror. Due to space constraints (the vanity/mirror is narrow & tall), we installed the fixture upside down. It produces a nice, bright, soft light that lights the entire bathroom. The light, even shining upwards, is still good enough to use to put on make-up.

Aesthetics-wise, this light fixture looks similar to those 3 light fixtures that you find in a home improvement warehouse store. The pewter finish is nice and has a modern brushed look. The square openings above the glass shades look fine against our large subway tile. The glass shades are a pretty, muted white that gives the fixture modern, soft look.

Overall, this is a nice fixture that produces good light and is easy to install. If the price and design work for you, go for it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I just recently moved into a newer, bigger house, and while our family loves it, some updates were necessary. The guest bedroom had that hideous 90s style "Hollywood" mirror vanity. We replaced it with the Nelio Three Light Pewter Vanity and we couldn't be happier. It looks very high end and really lends an air of elegance to the bathroom. The light is ample but is softened by the milky glass. We absolutely love the total effect. My husband is pretty handy and had no trouble with the installation. We are considering purchasing two more of the same for the master bathroom. Highly recommended!
