Ratings & Reviews for Kichler Barrington 14.75-in Distressed Black and Wood Tone Indoor 3 -Light Semi-flush Mount Light with Seeded Glass

Used for my hallway

Bought for my new house for the hallway. Had the same one in my old house.

Nice Design, but installation is almost impossible

I hired a licensed electrician and I am a licenced Professional Engineer and it took both of us 2 hours to install this fixture to replace an old fixture. The tube and components that mount to the mounting plate in the electrical box do not have enough tolerance or length to account for slight adjustments and basically was almost impossible to install. The glass bowl is not perfectly balanced and it is difficult to get it to stay straight.

Very Difficult to install

I've installed a ton of lights in my day and these things are awful. First off the instructions are missing steps but you can eventually get past that. But you get to a point where the screws are too long coming from the mounting plate down to the little brown nuts you tighten mostly by hand. So you have to get new screws and with trail and error you will eventually find the right size. When it comes to mounting the Glass you have thread the top part in like the instructions say but you have ...

It's nice, but a little dim on the amount of light

Fairly easy to install. Nice addition. A bit dim, so if you need a lot of light, this isn't the choice.

Pretty but poor quality control

These looked really nice but the quality control is terrible. I got one that wouldn't screw together because the threads were bad, then exchanged it for one where the included light bulbs wouldn't fit because the metal wasn't bent enough. Out of the 3 I purchased only 1 was made correctly.

YOU WILL LOVE IT.

I am renovating an old house and replacing all the darn boob lights. This light fixture was recommended by a friend. It is perfect in every way from a style standpoint. My only "issue" about it is that the lights it comes with are pretty yellow/orangey. But its super easy to change the lightbulbs. I still think they look great, but I'll change them eventually for a less colored light. I am so happy with my purchase and it its truly a great finishing touch.

Nonfunctional

2 of the brackets between the top & bottom wood ring were snapped off. The center post had been damaged. It angled so badly the glass shade could not fit.

Check the box at the store

Parts were missing and they refused to replace after stating they would

THE worst engineered product ever

Someone needs to tell Lowe's to quit trying to save three cents by getting products designed by people who don't own rulers, and who don't know how to write manuals. I'm no engineer, but I'm smarter than these clowns. First, the manual doesn't say to feed the wires through the support tube. Fortunately I'm smarter than they are. But then the whole thing is supported by the keepers that attach to the screws on the mounting plate. You can either have the rose float 3/8 inch off the ceiling, u...

Meh- There are nicer pieces with easier install.

The piece is pretty. Install was a pain! I’m an average diy-er, but can knock out a fixture change pretty easily. This along with pendant lights of the same brand/style each took me nearly 2 hours to finally complete and get right. It’s almost like the maker wanted to do everything in their power to make this the most difficult thing to change out. I would have returned everything and swore off this brand forever, but I was already committed after the pendant lights took up my valuable time, and...

Missing Light Bulbs

Nice light. Solid build. Easy install. Did not come with light bulbs as indicated. Purchased four of these lights. Missing 4 bulbs out of 12. Have to question quality control.

Almost Deadly

My hand went through the glass while supporting it to change the light bulbs.

Farmhouse Rustic light

Love the wood like bands around the top and bottom.

Too difficult to install accurately.

Attractive style but too difficult to install and too flimsy assembly for weight.

Not worth the time and effort

A light install should be extremely easy and like the manual says 30min to an hour tops to install. Wrong! Every single part was ‘off’, but the worst piece was the glass. It bowed in the middle and wouldn’t sit even so after 3 hours of stressful time spent with my husband we called the store to see if we could look at other glass pieces and see if there was one more level. Sure enough we found one. In the end for $130 piece you get what you pay for, but know it’s going to take you unnecessary ti...
