I'm pretty handy and this by far has been the worst light i have ever installed. Stay away. It's not for a beginner.

This is the perfect replacement for a fluorescent lamp. Comes with everything but the light bulb. Love love love this light fixture!

The glass is not thick at all & the packaging material is very cheap. It appears that the fixture is upended in the globes and the longer of the 3 parts fixture broke the globe. Either glass is too fragile or packaging within box is inadequate.
