Very sturdy and solid. Power base installation requires a good size box or it will be hard to get the base to touch the ceiling. The lamps have very long cords and the splice knot will require some dexterity. The metal rings just sit on the glass and are a bit cheap. I would out a dab of glue on them to keep them from moving. Make sure to tighten the ground screw on each device attached to the rod or you will be unable to screw on the metal base. Make sure you have the correct tools particularly a short right angle screwdriver to tighten the ground screw.

I love the lights. They are exactly what I have searching for to go into my newly remodeled kitchen. The only problem we had was there was a page missing from the installation instructions which made it a little frustrating for my husband. I understand that is not an issue with Lighting Universe but with the manufacturer. Lighting Universe was terrifice, beginning to end.
