We received our two Carson lights for our outdoor porch and they were installed within a few days. Having purchased Restoration Hardware outdoor lamps for two entry doors 1 year earlier, and being please with their quality and construction, my husband commented that these lamps would be hard to distinguish in quality from the RH ones and if we had found these before that purchase 1 year ago we would have gladly bought these instead. I agree! They are high quality lights that are solidly constructed and very well priced. RH has nothing on them in beauty, construction and especially in price. My only comment to take note of is that we bought the hunter green and they are hard to distinguish from black after being mounted to the ceiling.
