We installed this with the light facing down. It's a pleasant warm light and lights up our small bathroom so well we are disconnecting the ceiling light that came with the exhaust fan and using this as our sole lighting source. It's just modern enough but not stark. Fits nicely with our wood medicine cabinet.

I haven't installed it yet but at this writing, I'm not disappointed

Great quality. Easy installation. Normal lightbulbs which is very nice. Great addition to the bathroom. Put the bulbs down to help with less dust collection - think they can go both ways.

I love this light and it looks great in our bathroom but I am subtracting 1 star because it did not come with cap nuts in a matching finish. 2 cap nuts are needed and are in a visible start - I had a hard time finding any that match well.
