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

Easy installation and beautiful

Looks beautiful! Gives off a good amount of light.

Misaligned manufacturing

The manufacturing had flaws about it - the glass and metal cap screw on, it took a long time to get things to not be grossly crooked.

Please read reviews before purchasing.

Beautiful light but terrible design to hang properly. Took a couple of hours then did not work. Got to return it.

Bulbs do not stay lit.

I am constantly pulling out the ladder and tightening up bulbs. I tried replacing the bulbs and had the same problem. I don't have enough reach to tighten without taking off the glass, then there is the hassle of getting it back on. I intend to replace.

Nice looking fixture, terrible design

I got this light fixture for my foyer space that I’m redoing. Out of everything in Lowe’s this was the only one I really liked the style of. I wanted to do a quick upgrade to the old & outdated existing fixture without having to shop all over. This one also matches the chandelier I got for above the staircase. Well I wish I read the reviews first. Install took several hours and I can’t get it flush with the ceiling without modifying the existing hardware. The instructions were terrible. The long...

Almost nice.

The light looks nice from five feet away. Unfortunately the finish was speckled with paintless bare spots that you get when you haven’t cleaned all of the oil or debris off of metal before painting it. Ours also had been opened in the store and we found it missing instructions and the glass had a hairline crack. We had to return it but Lowe’s was great about the return.

Difficult to put up

Looks good, but not a quality fixture. Hole in glass is not centered well. I would not recommend.

Installing is difficult

Installation - was difficult to get cords in correct place

Pieces did not fit together correctly

I bought this light fixture as part of a dining room remodel. While we really liked the look, the pieces did not fit together correctly in order to attach the seeded glass cover (which was one of my favorite parts). Our electrician said they often have problems with light fixtures from Lowe’s so we ended up returning this and buying from a different store.

Light bulbs?

What light bulbs are you supposed to use in this light? The manual only says use 60-watt max. medium base bulbs or LED equivalent, and the photo seems to show edison style light bulbs. But we bought the edison style light bulbs and they are too large to fit inside the glass shade? See photos and please advise.

Kirchler Semi-Flush Mount

My wife loves the light. Only took about an hour to put together and install. I watched this video on YouTube before installing. The only thing I had to do was shorten the two long machine screws that attached the canopy. I used some washers and bolt nuts to shorten the length of the screw. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zVhXUmfSdc&t=122s

Beautiful but a DISASTER to install

Something that should have taken 1.5 hours max for 2 fixtures ended up taking 6 hours. It is nearly impossible to install alone. Luckily I have the experience to alter some of the hardware. Otherwise it would not have worked. The assembly instructions had a ton of missing information. It's a beautiful fixture, but will never install this brand again.

Perfect

This light is perfect for small dining rooms

Looks nice, hard to install

The lamp is hard to install if the glass and bulbs are already in place. If you add the glass after the lamp is hung then the glass is hard to install

Beautiful, Classic, Modern!

I had the lights professionally installed by an electrician because I was adding another light in the kitchen. He had the wire run and the install completed in no time. I love the classic, yet modern look! Effectively illuminates a small condo kitchen.

Literally impossible to install

The included installation instructions omit a critical step (threading the supply wires through the tube and canopy before mounting). Once you get that far, you learn that there is no room whatsoever to perform the connections with around the canopy. You can have it back, Lowes.
