28 in. Modern 4-Light Black Semi Flush Mount Industrial Black and Gold Sputnik Chandelier

This 28 inch Black and Gold Ceiling Light by Aiwen is an excellent product with nice features. The mix of Black and Gold accent make this a very attractive light. The 4 globe design provides excellent light for larger rooms including Living and Dining Rooms, Larger bedrooms, and entry ways. This light is easy to install on a standard electrical ceiling box. Just remove the old light and change to this sleek modern lighting update (note bulbs are not included)

This flush-mount black and gold Sputnik chandelier by Aiwen features an attractive design with flat black metal tubing attached to a flat black mounting base. Four gold flanges provide a colorful mounting for four frosted white glass spheres. The fixture uses four G9 style light bulbs. Both LED and Halogen bulbs come in the G9 size and will provide varying qualities and brightness of light filtered through the frosted glass. The fixture requires assembly by threading the sheathed wires from each side of the fixture (two lights each) through the hollow attachment tubes. The tubes are then screwed into the connection points before being bolted through the mounting base. All required hardware is provided. My fixture had visible signs of rust inside one of the connection points which made screwing the tube into place quite difficult. I used a wire brush to try and clean out the rust but ended up having to use a pair of pliers to force the tube to screw in past the rusted section. I also then had to touch up the flat-black paint where the pliers had scraped it away. Once assembled and installed into the ceiling, the fixture looked great and the damage from the pliers is all but invisible. This fixture looks great on or off. Aside from the rust, it was easy to assemble and install. I went with Halogen bulbs to save roughly $22 over buying four LED G9 bulbs. The quality of light they produce has a warm yellowish tinge that’s actually quite pleasant. LED bulbs may create a more pure white light.

This light is beautiful. We had very little assembly and it was packed extremely well when delivered. When I received the box everything was extremely well packaged but without lots of excess. There was not a scratch or dent on a single piece. Assembly was quick. We had to feed 4 wires through 4 posts and screw each end of the post in. Even though one of the holes didn’t line up well it was easy enough to force it in the hole and it didn’t affect the look or the ability of the light to work. It is completely unnoticeable now. Once I had the light put together I noticed that it took a different kind of lightbulb. It didn’t say anywhere that this required Halogen or different kind of bulb. That was disappointing. We have never used halogen or this different kind of bulb before and that made me a little nervous. Now that the light is put together it looks great but I am not happy about having to buy halogen bulbs when they go out.

This was a fun project. It needs to be FULLY assembled and wired right from the box. The instructions are a little vague so if this is your first electrical project ask for assistance. But it comes with zip ties and shrink wrap to keep everything together while wiring everything up. It uses four G9 adapter bulbs. The instructions say 35w, but the sticker on the fixture says 40w. So to be safe i went with the G9 35w LED from home depot. And wow it was a good choice. The adapter for the ceiling attached to the previous hardware and all i had to do was line it up and tighten the screws. My previous fixture only had one 35w bulb so we rarly used the light. But this one lights up the whole area and we love it.

This is a beautiful light for the price… the directions were not super helpful, but with experience you can figure this out!

I rarely write 1 star reviews because really, there's always something to like about a product. But this four-light fixture from aiwen deserves that low rating. The fixture had a number of small issues that culminated in a big one...it broke while being assembled under the usual force needed to unscrew a shade. I was initially happy to have found a modern chandelier that hugs the ceiling a bit more without being too small in width. It should have been a perfect solution for smaller rooms, rooms with low ceilings or, in my case, a room where I want to integrate a nice chandelier while also using track lighting along the walls. The size was perfect to prevent visual clutter, and it fit the Midcentury Modern look we're going for. During assembly, I noticed that the fixture arms and bolts were very difficult to thread. I assumed this was caused by the black coating getting into the threads, so I cleaned all the sticky threads with a wire brush. They went on very easily after that, and snugged down nicely with the provided washers. The instructions showed all arm assembly to be done at the same time; in reality, the short arms should be attached to the longer arms that hold the shades first. It is not possible to affix the shade arms if the shorter arms have been attached to the base first. These are relatively small issues and shouldn't have caused issues with the rating. I found the design so cute that I was going to rank it at four stars; it would not achieve five stars as the materials were of a lesser quality, even considering the price point. Then I tried attaching the shades. The glass globes are wonderful, a milky opaque white that keeps the bulbs from blinding people. However, they were very difficult to screw onto all four of the ceramic pegs. The ceramic pegs appear to be so poor that the flanges were deteriorating while the shades were being screwed on. One of the ceramic pegs was so poorly threaded that the shade only caught on the threads for the last few turns. When I went to remove this shade to install the bulbs, the shade would not back off the threads. When it finally did, one of two of the tiny metal pins holding the ceramic to the fixture broke. The light works, but I won't use this due to my concerns over safety. Safety concerns were another issue; while assembling the light, I removed the stickers on all four shades that stated 40 watt equivalent max per bulb. Under each sticker was another warning stating 35 watt equivalent is the max for this fixture. If I were to use it, I would not use higher than 35 watt equivalent just to be safe.

I loved the picture, i loved the packaging, i loved the easy assembly and i love the overall look. think you have to buy specific light bulbs. Great quality easy to install I wish I would have done this in my bedroom also.

This light has very small openings in the globes where the bulbs have to get through. Most LED bulbs are too big to fit. I had to grind down the base of the bulbs to make them fit after I got one bulb stuck and broke the globe in the process. I contacted the manufacturer and they requested $15.00 for purchase/shipping of a new globe. The globe never arrived. The company has stopped responding to my emails. I would not recommend this product. Home Depot did a very good job assisting me with this issue. I give Home Depot a 5+ rating on their customer service.

Absolutely stunning light fixture! The modern styling coupled with the contrasting black and gold colors really enhance the beauty of this aiwen fixture. The round globes are the perfect touch to the fixture's beauty and adds a distinctive yet contemporary look to our dining area. We love the size and clearance above the table that this light fixture provides. And the quality of the materials is excellent. We are beyond happy with it and recommend it highly.
