Always impressed with Kartell Products.

Beautiful design and not too expensive compared to other Designer Brands.

Plastic on FL/Y is very prone to scratches. Installation is a taxing one.

As with most European Light fixtures, the ceiling cap is much smaller than the exisiting hole. The ceiling cap should of been larger and possibly made of aluminum for the the price.

Happy with the lamp even though installation was somewhat of a challenge.

Love the lamp, it´s big, simple and fun.

I do agree with the other reviewers about the cost...pretty expensive plastic. But I love it.

I am a bit concerned about the cleaning/scratching so I´m getting the Kartell plastic cleaner kit to be safe.

Very nice light fixture! The best part is that the bulb appears white even through the shade.

The down side is the cleaning. Use a very gentle, microfiber cloth to clean it. Also, I agree with the other review about how hard it is to string the wire through the top wire cover. But once it is done, you don't have to do it again!

Overall a great lamp!

The Good: Looks awesome, very modern

The Bad: The plastic light shade scratches easier then any material I have ever seen -I cleaned it with an extra soft paper towel and it left a million micro-scratches all over it which are easily seen when the light is on.

Having installed nearly a dozen lights in our house I have to say the light hookup / cording is the worst ever. The actual cord is oval shaped and they expect you to fit it through a small circular hole in the canopy which is nearly impossible to do (took over an hour) -- after that you still have to route it through another bracket which attaches to the ceiling. Its awful considering this light is nearly $300 and $100 lights come with better wiring / bracket devices.

nearly impossible to clean, easily scratched. a bit off kilter, in short an absolute horror. perhap ok as a disposable item at $100, but not worth $300.

Didn't realize how huge this piece is but looks great. However, the price is a bit much for what it is - plastic!

Even though I measured I wasn't prepared for the way the size felt in the space. Also, the plastic looks cheap. I didn't like this light and plan to try to return it.

Cool design. Really shows dust and fingerprints! Electrical wiring/hookup was surprisingly cheesy for Kartell quality. Keep in mind that this lamp casts quite a colorful light (i.e. the orange lamp casts a very orange glow..)

The lamp is HUGE. Which is perfect for our application over the stairwell. We got the orange color and it looks really good. Plastic material not really worth the $300 but the results are.
