This lamp had mixed reviews when it came to installation, but overall, the reviewers stated that it is beautiful and looks as pictured. The electrical cord on this lamp is very long. However, we were fortunate enough to be able to fit the excess amount into the electrical box without having to cut any of it. Most of the frustration with other buyers came from having to reduce the excess amount of the electrical cord. Because we did not run into any issues and the lamp looks great in the baby's nursery, I would personally recommend this buy.
