George Kovacs Pierce Pendant - P8021-084

Was looking for a sleek, modern light and came across this one. Although the fixture itself is just as pictured, I was highly disappointed for the disregard of style in the rod which is flimsly and takes away from its sophistication. To make things worse, the light bulbs didn't work and will have to return. Do not recommend.

Very happy with this pendant. It's unobtrusive, blends n well with the other lights in the kitchen while keeping its own style.

A grouping of these lights was the perfect choice for our small kitchen island. The one thing we were not sure about from the description was the base shape. The ones we received were just a flat circular base that fits very close to the ceiling with maybe a 12-34 inch visible depth. Perfect.

I really like this Pierce pendant that I chose for its design. It gives off the right amount of light and looks great in the retail setting I put it in. In face, the contractors I used cut it too short and I chose to reorder the same ones again!

Service Review

Ordered from Josh in customer service who deserves an A.

Great quality, simple, clean little pendants. The install is actually quite simple if you DONT follow the instructions. The best way to get these in is to completely break down the transformer unit (taking all housings and covers off) and install that first making connections to your + & -. Then add the screw plate with the transformer and primary connections burried above it. Next you can pull the treaded lead through and re-fit it back into the finished assembly in reverse order. This is way more do-able then trying to force the transformer through a sharp little hole in the plate and fighting with all that hardware dangling above you while you do it. Once you get these fixtures up you can work on the length off line easily because of the threaded/powered connection between the lamp and the housing. These are acually some of the easiest, well built pendants I have installed but with poor, over simplified instructions.

I purchased three of these lamps to replace existing 12 volt pendants in my kitchen. The three challenges I experienced with installation were: 1. The ceiling canopy should be deep enough to house the transformer. Instructions call to place transformer in the junction box, but there were too many existing wires for this to easily fit. 2. If you want to shorten the cable length, you have to ensure that you cut the outer wire braided housing and not the insulation. 3. The lights come with 50w halogen bulbs. You can purchase lower wattage bulbs or install a dimmer switch. I did the latter and it works great!

Printing on light bulb is shadowed on the light cover when it is turned on. Trimming of the wires to hang it is a little cumbersome (has a wire mesh sleeve you have to trim). Smaller than we thought. Ended up hanging 4 lights instead of 3. Puts off a lot of light.

These were better then expected. The mounting assembly was slightly different then the picture. As it turned out they have a slightly more contemporary look since the mounting kit is lower profile and not a dome shape. They look great and I was able to install 3 in about an hour.

I used it over a sink in front of a window. It looks great because it doesn't block the view!
