Crystal 2 Ball Raindrop Chandelier

This is absolutely stunning. Instructions are a little odd if you’re not used to putting up lights this definitely is on the tedious side of light projects. That said so worth it. When I got it I almost returned it for a replacement, several of the glass balls were busted and the top layer of the box was missing 12 balls. Then I went through and counted out that I had all I needed still so I went forward on building it. That said about 5 of the balls had some good chips out of them however the way it hangs you cannot see it. Night one it took us 1.5hrs to get the light plate up and Night 2 we worked on the strands 8pm-3am only because of all the up and down it took on the ladder “we have a 20’ ceiling” and my hands kept getting cut up. I tried to use the gloves they gave but it was two slick to get the metal mounting piece through the hole in them. In the end totally worth it, if you have the patience, a little experience in putting these types of projects together, a bit of time and are okay being detailed in your work I highly recommend this gorgeous light. As far as the main plate mount goes, the wiring harness is one of the easier ones I have installed. Getting the plate lined up on the pegs that stick through did take a minute when working above my head. We love it this light and with the bulbs that change color and can dim it’s so extra festive and pretty. It fit our entry way perfectly

This light is just as everyone says, more beautiful than the pictures show. We are glad we read the other detailed reviews about using additional security screws. We didn't have any problems with broken or missing parts. This took my husband about 30-45 minutes to install the light mount. That includes trimming up some pieces and finding those additional screws to secure this better to the ceiling. As far as the actually crystals go we found the instructions and organization to be very user friendly. The process was tedious. We thought we would just get started, maybe work on it for thirty minutes or an hour, but once you start you can't bring yourself to stop. We enlisted the help of our kids, and they did great. I HIGHLY recommend having this be a group project. My 6 year old removed all the crystal balls from their packaging, no small task, and then would give them to me when I was ready for them. My 16 year old untangled the wires, and my 12 year old would take each finished strand to my husband on the ladder. I put all the crystal balls on the end of the wire hooks, my fingers were pretty sore by the end but it's not like I needed Band-Aids or anything. Working together with all 5 of us we had the light completed in 2.5 hours. We all started by wearing the gloves to avoid getting finger prints on the crystals, but we took those off about 15 minutes into the project as they were slowing us down. If the sunlight hits the crystals directly and you're standing right next to the light then you can see smudges. Otherwise this is high enough on the ceiling that none of that is noticeable. I will say that when we had it all completed, and it was just before midnight, that I was giddy with how beautiful it looked. However, in the morning I was unpleasantly surprised to realize I forgot to take into consideration the sunlight that came through our front window in the morning and that our entire entry way was filled with rainbow colored lights all over our wall. The effect of this light fixture went from classy to tacky. However, once the sun rose a little bit higher in the sky the disco ball effect passed and our walls cleared up. So now that will be an added bonus, a fun little morning party for whoever is awake early in our house. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. The amount of light this puts off is quite high. So if you have an option to buy low watt bulbs I would definitely go that route. I did some serious price tracking of light fixtures similar to this one and from various companies and I found this fixture and amazon's price to be the most competitive. There were some other fixtures I liked better, but they were 2 or 3 times more expensive. And this one does the job perfectly, especially for the price. Good luck to anyone who buys this! Be sure to read other people's reviews for additional tips and tricks.

Many reviews stated this is a beautiful chandelier with good price. Indeed! It is indeed time consuming to put it on. It took 5 hours for me and handyman to work together. Use a scaffolding is very necessary. I read one review to suggest buying small hooks. It is an very wise advice and I bought this hooks, link here, Shappy 300 Pieces 0.55 Inch Small S Hooks for Hanging Mini S Hooks Connectors Silver Metal S Shaped Wire Hook Kits with Storage Box for Jewelry Tree Tags Crafts DIY Hanger Ornament Hook https://a.co/d/hJnZ203, and hanging the tiny key chain like ring on the hooks on the plate. It saved at least one hour effort. I bought this light in 2018 and waited for 5 years in 2023 eventually decided to get it on. I do not know if new versions has the hanging box plate, but year 2018 version do not have the plate. The instructions advise to use the drywall nails in package to fix the plate on ceiling. I do not think it is a good idea. My handyman drilled two holes on the chandelier plate to fix it to our existing metal box which is intended for heavy nights. If new versions do not have the plates, I suggest you do the same. This light definitely need to be fixed to a metal electric box. It takes time but the results is rewarding. The crystals used in this product are high quality glass, not the cheap plastic. This makes the final looking very high end looking. Hope this helps. I reviewed others comments prior installation. They are very helpful. Here is my paycheck to those. :).

The finished product is fantastic, as other reviews have noted. The directions and packaging for the item are horrific. Here are some suggestions and tips for this item. 1. Some of the reviews are totally off the mark as Amazon is combining reviews of multiple products from this manufacturer. My review is for the Spiral Sphere Rain model but there are other models that are much smaller and simpler to install so pay attention to what item the reviews are for. 2. Amazon provided contractor will want much more than the quoted price to install this item (Spiral Sphere Rain model), especially for a high ceiling. Amazon quoted me $132 in Los Angeles for the install but contractor wanted $200 more plus another $60 to install the switches. Considering the install is easily a 6+ hour job for high ceiling, this rate is pretty reasonable but be aware about this. Unknowing contractor may agree to the Amazon terms but you don't want angry contractor installing this item. 3. If at all possible, do the assembly yourself. Have the electrician do the base install and electrical work but assemble the fixture yourself or have someone that you know is good at these kind of things do it for you. Electricians are not trained to assemble crystal chandeliers and they will have all kinds of problems with this item. Mine kept forgetting to use the gloves and tried to rush the job which led to cloudy crystals that will never get cleaned and tangled wires that added to installation time. 4. Absolutely wear gloves when handling the crystals - I can clearly tell the difference between the ones that were handled without gloves. They provide a pair of medium/small gloves with the package but it is worth getting some nitrile gloves which are much better than latex for this kind of job. 5. The instructions are pretty lacking. Take a picture of the diagram with HD camera, enlarge on your computer and print it out. The image that they provide is very small and hard to read. The enlarged instruction diagram was extremely helpful for everyone. 6. Prep for the install as this will save your contractor HOURS - this was the best thing we did for the install and it made all the difference. I used two tie hangers on a tall coat rack on top of an ottoman to unpack and hang the crystals, grouped and sequenced by their numbers. I also used the floor to organized the unraveled crystals but be careful to not step on the wires which can bend or tangle easily. When it came time to hang the wires, we just had to hand the contractor the number that he wanted, one at a time, as everything was all set up. This will minimize mistakes and delays from unpacking during the install. DO NOT let the contractor try to install more than one crystal at a time as they will tangle and cause long delays. 7. If the install is for high ceiling like mine was, use scaffolding if possible. My contractor used a tall slide ladder and he had to constantly move it around for the install which damaged the paint on walls. This is not a big deal unless the damage is 16 feet high. Now I have to call in a painter to clean things up.

It look so good the size is way big u need have high ceiling to install this it does take about 4-6 hours to install but it worth it looks way nice in house

Beautiful and breathtaking, this piece really is a statement. I mean this chandelier looks magical. I am so in love with it and it is perfect size. The balls are heavy and great quality. The only thing I can say is I wish they sent tools in install them into the tiny slots, that is very time consuming, because I do the work myself as DIY, but worth it in the end. Pictures do not do this justice, buy it and see for yourself, this is a masterpiece!!!

If I could give it a zero star I would. I bought this a few weeks ago and it took a little time to schedule a contractor whom had experience with a fixture of this type. Got it all installed to notice that the top sphere is separated in half with the bottom half inverted. It's as little hard to see in the picture however the bottomed two spheres are in the correct shape so I am inclined to assume that the installation was correct. I am trying to contact the seller and guess what... neither have they responded or has Amazon been able to really help since the order issue window is closed and Amazon didn't have current seller information. I will keep this updated as I find more. This fixture took a very long time to hand and is very complex, do not get caught like I did without some type of resolve. UPDATE: No resolve to date. I did hear from the company who said they would send new crystals that were not upside down however I have not seen anything and they have since stopped communicating. BEWARE! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I am sure it looks amazing if it was not defective however since it is one massive project to hang it is not worth the risk. UPDATE: I did get a replacement sent to me a while back, just have not had the stomach to get it installed. I did have one comment telling me that it was installed improperly. IMPOSSIBLE: Everything other than the top sphere lined up perfectly... how else could it have been hung to ensure the bottom half of the top sphere lined up?

Looks stunning. It took nearly 4 hours for fixing the chandelier. I got smart ecosmart lights from home depot with color changing option. Spending 4 hours was worth for this. Removing the strings and attaching to the fixture was the complex and tiring job. But worth it.

I recently purchased this chandelier, and while it took some time to build, the end result is absolutely stunning. The chandelier's design is both elegant and sophisticated, featuring crystals that reflect light beautifully. Assembling the chandelier required patience, However, the effort was well worth it. Once installed, the chandelier transformed the space totally. The crystals are of good grade, ensuring maximum sparkle. This picture is before taking the protective film out. Once we took out the film, it turned out more beautiful In terms of value, this chandelier exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this crystal chandelier.

As above

It’s very pretty and classy. It’s a bit hard to assemble but it’s worth it when you finally see the finished product!. I absolutely love it!

Se ve genial.

This is a ton of work. Actually thought at the start, I've got to box this up and send it back! But I continued and put it up. Everyone says it's outstanding. They can't believe the beauty of it. It is the most unique light I have ever had in my home. All smiles now every time I look up. lol Make sure the numbers are on every item. I hung metal coat hangers at the tops of my door trim. Hung each wire with crystal on hangers. Kept them straight and not tangled.
