Customer Reviews for ARTIKA Biplan 29-Watt Integrated LED Brushed Nickel Pendant

Awesome light fixture. Used it for my entry and looks great!

It installs quite easily, although the bracket it attaches to sags a little bit as it’s not particularly sturdy. Additionally, I can’t figure out a good way to straighten the wires. The lamp itself isn’t heavy enough to straighten the wire by its weight, so some of the wire has kinks. Looks great though

The lines and design of this Artika Biplan pendant light are smooth, plain and simple. Nothing fancy here. It’s very lightweight which is indicative of the newer LED low wattage fixtures. Although I haven’t had the opportunity to install the light just yet installation looks simple enough with the included screws and quick connect wire nuts. I do believe the 1300 lumens should give sufficient lighting but I’m not sure how big a fan I am of these recyclable lights. The 50,000 hours should allow ample time to that I might be ready to replace it by the time it has expired.

This is a very stylish modern looking light. The only issue that I had was the amount of light that the fixture gives off. Being an LED light, I expected more light. To be used as a dinning room light, I felt that it was dim and is not capable of bright light, only a warm glow light feeling. I ended up using it elsewhere. The center section of the light can pivot, but unlike the outer band on the light that directs downward, the center band reflects light inward. The light fixture hanging design is quite unique and easy to install. It also allows the fixture to be hung from a high ceiling with virtually no sign of unsightly wires. Leveling the fixture can be a little tricky until the cables have been in the hanging position for some time. Good Quality.

This is a perfectly fine, uniquely designed fixture. Decidedly contemporary and minimalist, it would look best in similarly themed spaces. I installed mine in my office where it produces good color (4000k) in a uniform direct/reflective casting. You can angle the inner element if desired, but it looks best in vertical or horizontal orientation. Power consumption is excellent and it's dimmable with the right switch. Hanging it is a little hairy because of its geometry, but they use cinch collar escutcheons for the suspension cables which makes it very easy to level once it's mounted (see pic). The finish is decent - a little rough up close, but looks fine from the floor when hung.

Artika Biplan 29 watt integrated LED brushed nickel pendant light fixture has a height adjustable feature and has a dimmable light option. The maximum hanging length is 60 inches from the ceiling and can be adjust to as little as . Over measurements are 39 inches long, 9 inches across in width, and 3.74 inches in height. This fixture would fit well into either a modern/contemporary setting or a vintage/retro setting with the square lines and simple design that is elegant yet funky. Easy to follow instructions, although I have not had the personal experience of installing it yet. Offers functional use of up to 50,000 hours with 1,300 lumens of light in a warm white lighting ambiance. Actual color temperature is 3000 rating. An extra nice feature is that the center area of the fixture has an angle adjustment.

Unique energy-saving light fixture. I received this light in perfect condition and was impressed with the look. The light can be adjusted to be bi-plane or on a single plane. It has an adjustable length so it can be used in most applications. I installed in a low overhead area and basically made it a flush mount style light on a single plane. The light is energy saving LED and is very bright. I've had several lights in this location and this one provides the most light.

Review summary: “TWO THUMBS UP!” This Artika Biplan pendant is a gorgeous chandelier that brings a contemporary design to a dining room. The center square light can be easily adjusted vertically or horizontally after installation depending on the evening’s mood. This is a bright, energy-efficient LED that can be connected to a simple on/off switch or to “most LED dimmers.” Finally, installation is typical Home Depot DIY: fast and easy. [FYI: “Two Thumbs Up” is a catch phrase from Siskel & Ebert’s TV show that ran 20 years ago. When BOTH film critics gave the film a thumbs up, it was assumed that the file was very good.] [This light fixture is very, very good!]

- two/4 wires not relaxing days after installation + otherwise, Artika. Great design, *pretty* good lumens for all brick walls. +/- center lamp pivots +/- would love cooler k options I now have around 400 Artika fixtures in my all-brick living area and kitchen/morgue, and I think the low k/reddish light gets swallowed whole by my walls -- but otherwise, I remain plenty impressed. Not to oversell what you take out of the box: the aluminum and presumably steel materials are distrubingly lightweight, but that's apparently industry standard for low wattage married LED fixtures (I've got a fixture that swears it's an Artika in every way, including weight, but it's not.) As long as you don't play ball in the house, the materials get the job done. The packaging is giftworthy, but the packing left two of the four wire rope connections to the light itself bent a bit; I don't think indoor temps have been over 62f since I installed the light, and if I cared enough I'd run a hair dryer over them, if I owned a hair dryer, if I had hair. You have the option of pivoting the center lamp up to 45*, which cuts the effective light output a bit at full pivot, as you won't see in the pics from my useless overpriced Google Pixel 3 and its out-of-the-box "Moonlighting" lens. But it turns on, so it's not an iphone.

After seeing this fixture and what it is had to have, new an different. Well came in yesterday and took down the existing fixture and started the install is pretty easy, except if you install close to ceiling, Me did 32" down to that mean 12ft of wire to stuff on canopy, tried setting within like a inch of where I wanted and pulled hang wire in canopy wow even taped together to much. So lets get rid of some "if you do don't cut the wire that has a connection to a small black & white wires coming off driver as that is power to light and am sure will be a pain to fix-what I see is 2 wires very small 1 out & 1 in. so better to just leave it" OK so to wire is just strip fixture wires to 5/8" min for wirenuts, an all new fixtures should have a hook to hole fixture up so you can wire as this one has . Make sure you install the screws to hole up the bar that holds fixture canopy. I did take out screws that fix bar to round mounting bracket as screws in wrong location for my box screw locations. Then is just put in screws to hold canopy, adjust for level and height by pushing up wire into canopy (easy) turn on power and all good. Said 1300 lumens (about a 100 watt incandescent) think is more, 3000K color.
