Customer Reviews for Home Decorators Collection Kristella 4-Light Chrome Crystal Chandelier

The fixture looks great but the directions were an insult. This lighting company does not have any respect for you. They could've written about ten more sentences to explain the sequence of how to install it. They couldn't even give a proper description of the bulbs needed. If you like figuring things out for yourself, then buy this light. Home Depot needs to demand more for their customers.

100% buyers noticed not all staples were bent to securely hold crystals. Despite my best efforts, pinched both the top and bottom towards each other, nothing in the room but a soft rug to catch anything...one crystal hit my ladder and broke. Suggest: remove clear wrap that secures the padded crystal sleeves in place as it impedes visibility to staples esp. near the support bars, tighten all staples before hanging, then remove sleeves after. Have super glue, replacements are in high demand.

Directions were a bit vague but have to take time with set up and be delicate with the crystals ! Packaging was great !!

The lights came well wrapped and in perfect condition....they look sooooo beautiful in my kitchen... my electrician installed them in about an hour...

I recently took down an outdated ceiling fan and installed the Kristella chandelier in my home office. I have a glass and chrome desk and this light fixture is crystal and chrome which gave me the right amount of glam I was looking for without going over the top. I received my shipment and two days(Thanks HD!) and had it up fairly quickly. It was packaged well without any damage. Each crystal is packaged with a foam covering to protect the crystals. It is best if you leave them on until after the chandelier is hung as this makes it easier to install. Also another little trick is to slide the foam coverings off by sliding inward and not outward as the crystals are less likely to fall off the little holders that they hang from. I had a few fall off and was halfway through getting them off when I figured out this trick. You also get a couple extra hangers for the crystals included. I didn’t need them, but appreciate that I have them if needed. Also I would put a blanket or comforter or some type of soft cushioning under the area you are installing this as some of the crystals might fall off during installation and hit the floor. I added a medallion to my ceiling that I also bought from Home Depot. I am a 50+ female and installed this myself. Definitely recommend this chandelier if you want a crystal chandelier with a modern look.

Very easy to install & Sooo beautiful in person. I have you flush mount & the chandelier & they compliment each other VERY well.

Chandelier is very nice, packing was excellent. Every single crystal was wrapped, The only problem was the wires that were holding the crystal was kind of short some of them were falling down, some are not attached. I had to redo the wires to hold up the crystal. My suggestion is to unwrap that box on top of a carpet to prevent cracking the crystals. Overall very nice chandelier.

I absolutely love this chandelier! It's gorgeous. This was so easy to unpack and install. I was a little hesitant to purchase at first because of reviews saying it was a nightmare to unpack but ours came with foam sleeves around the crystals that pulled right off. So I guess they must have changed the packaging. If you install the supports first, you never have to carry the weight of the fixture while you're doing the wiring. My husband had it up in about a half hour. Total install time including unpacking about an hour. Thank you Home Decorators Collection!

Wanted a simple classic quality chandelier for a project room. Very impressed by the high quality metal construction of this light. Very pleased there was no plastic parts. The crystals are made from all glass and were individually wrapped in placed for shipping, a few came off during unpackaging but were easily remounted other than electrical hook up there was no assembly required. The light was very easy to install and provided clear instructions. Installation took me about 30 minutes. The glass crystals reflect a glimmering light with good light dispersion. It looks great hanging from my ceiling. Very pleased with the look and the quality at this price-point.

When we renovated my wife’s closet, she wanted a chandelier. We bought one from another retailer . While it looked good, it didn’t do much to light up the space . I got this one for her since it had four lights...bulbs are not included. Installation was easy, but I’ve installed many lights in my life. The only problem I had was the crystals kept falling off. This was easily fixed by bending the wires a little more. It came with a chain with several links. Because the door needed to open and close, I cut the chain very short. After that, it was just a matter of attaching wires with the provided wire nuts. The light looks great and the closet is now well lit.

Good looking contemporary chandelier with crystals that scatter the light in a visually pleasing way – the photos cannot really do it justice. The chandelier is already fully assembled in the box and wrapped in reams of padding, paper and plastic to prevent damage during transit. The most time consuming part of the installation was removing all the wrapping. The crystals are each individually wrapped and pulling the covers off can make some fall out of place. The very fine wire that attached each crystal to the frame of the chandelier sometimes needs to be bent over a little more to stop the crystal from separating from the body of the chandelier. The chandelier is no lightweight but it is well balanced so that it hangs straight and level. The candle style light bulbs were not included. The hanging chain is easily shortened if required and the links have a screw type opening/closing feature which is much easier to use than taking a pair of pliers to a regular chain link.

Have been considering replacing the breakfast area lights for a while now however, was looking for something easy to assemble and install. Not only is the Kristella 4-light Matte Black Chandelier easy to install and assemble, it is also stylish, looks high end, made of high quality material and very bright. It took me about an hour to have it all together and it looks very beautiful. One thing I noticed was, leaving the crystals wrapped until the end seemed to make my work a lot easier as I didn’t have to deal with any crystals falling off during installation. Also, be careful when removing the plastics as I noticed some crystals were loose, maybe due to shipping. Other than these, it should be a breeze. I am happy with this product and highly recommend it without any reservation.

Very pretty, paid to have it installed . Love the amount of light, nice updated look.

Such a beautiful light. Original ship to my house came with the light completely damaged. Was able to easily return to store and get a new one!

I showed my friends the pictures and they thought the chandeliers were beautiful and cost so much more than what I paid for them, now they want to purchase for their home.

Will not recommend this. 1 star comes from the look of the crystal chandelier. I want to love this. But the crystals are held by very think hooks, paper clips are stronger that the hooks it came with, so crystals were falling. I had to secure each hook and crystal which took me very long to finish the process.

The fixture brings class to the area in which it is hung. It is both attractive and very functional.

Not a quality product

Very elegant looking

Beautiful and easy to install

Modern elegance! The refractions of the lights are beautiful when it is on. I had the large oval and middle size chandeliers in my old house, and had so many compliments through the past 2 years, that I bought the same ones for my new house!!

Easy to install and SO glamorous!
