Put two in a row over the tiny kitchen island. Light spread is wider than I guessed, so we run them at 60% most nights. Installer said the mounting plate was better than usual Amazon stuff. Arrived safely packed in foam sleeves. No buzzing on our dimmer so far and the wood tone doesn’t clash with our oak stools.
Mine had a tiny rub mark near the edge of the wood, not visible once hung but mentioning it. Customer chat offered a partial refund or exchange; I kept it. Color is warm and the drop length is plenty for our ceiling.
Wanted a pendant that didn’t look cheap and didn’t yell for attention. This one is low-key pretty. Finish on the wood is smooth, grain matches the listing photo. I’m not great with wiring so my neighbor helped; we used the included cap and it was done in 20 minutes. I keep it on a dimmer and it does that soft morning cafe thing, perfect above the small table. Box arrived clean, no weird smell, extra screws included. Kinda perfect honestly.
The Storn No. 16 fits our Japandi vibe. Simple round wood plate, little globe bulb, no glare. Came in under a week and the cord is a nice matte black not shiny. I adjusted the drop a few times and the canopy still sits flat. Only gripe, the instructions font is tiny, but the parts are obvious. Solid buy.
Didn’t want to spend boutique money. This looks boutique anyway. Simple, light weight, and the globe hides the bulb well. Hung it myself in about 30 min after watching one video. Shipping was two days faster than the tracker.
