There is very little information packaged with the fixture, including what type of bulbs it takes - on the fixture itself there was a sticker stating that it takes up to 60W GC16.5, which is a candelabra-base bulb. The manufacturer's website lists this fixture as taking standard E14 socket bulbs, which is apparently a European standard intermediate sizing and probably explains why this fixture has a difference socket type. Throws plenty of ambient light, is sturdy, attractive and easy to install. I would definitely buy it again.

After going over the product and checking to determine the correct bulb -- I find that this is just what the Dr. ordered -- looks great and will make a great addition to the small room!

Recently purchased the 3-light light and I'm very happy with it. It was mounted over my kitchen sink and it supplies plenty of light.

We bought two of these lights for our kitchen. I really liked the rounded curves and the low profile (it hangs only about 5" from the ceiling). It's modern, but with a softer look because of the curves. Hubby was able to install it pretty easily, despite the lack of instructions. Luckily, hubby was also able to identify the bulbs needed (as others have reported, no bulbs are included, and the instructions don't identify the bulb needed) -- it's the skinny base candlelabra incandescent (not halogen or LED). Each socket can take up to 60 watts, which you'll need. We tried 40W, and it wasn't bright enough for task lighting in the kitchen.

This is a track light and we've had such nice remarks about it. Light bulbs are easy to install and remove even if you do not have or have lost the rubber suction cup that usually comes with these lights. Add a dimmer switch for extra fun and practical use.
