Did anyone buy a ceiling medallian with this? If so could someone advise what size hole I'd need to purchase?

I did not buy a medallion because it comes with one to begin with. It isn't as ornate as some of those that are available from $5.00 to several hundreds, but it fits with the chandelier. If you get one that has a hole that is 7/16 which is just under 1/2" in diameter, you will be fine. The hole will be covered up by the nut that will screw onto the threaded device that holds the chandelier to the ceiling. It's not like you have a great many choices to choose from anyway. The threaded device that holds the chandelier to the ceiling only has to accommodate 3 small wires going through it, and the metal device in the ceiling that this threaded device screws into is a standard device found at any hardware store.

According to the manufacturer you can do flush mount, straight drop down or "angled ceiling" mount. You should be good to go with a longer rod that you'll have to purchase separately.

Hi, I'm sure that you could use the swag kit. I will attach a web site that may help you. http://www.doityourself.com/stry/instaling-ceiling-fan-with-swag-kit. Hope this helps

If you are talking about the decorative ceiling piece, I would use the 16". It is just a little larger then the diameter of the chandelier and makes a very nice finished look. The chandelier does not need it, the white base it comes with will cover the ceiling electrical box and looks nice as well. One warning, the chandelier will need to be assembled and will take a while. It took me about 2 hours to attach all of the crystals. The directions are extremely poor.

The Bamboo was very easy to put a hole in it. We attached to a dry wall with dry wall screws (3 of them alongside the frame). I can not answer the "ceiling question". It is too small for a regular celing unless you want to hang it from there. Again, no expereince with the ceiling.

Since the ceiling support rod that comes with the package wasn't adjustable besides the standard height, I had to also go to the local hardware store and purchase a new one. I bought one that was fully threaded and matched up the pieces to get the right diameter. You should be able to buy a fairly long rod if you choose to solve the problem this way and just switch out the standard rod with a new one.

I have one that I bought to make corn hole game boards. I think 6 inch might be a larger hole than needed for a ceiling light. Quality was good for the price.

If you are putting it on a wall, make sure you buy the extension kit. Installation goes pretty quick once you get the hole cut. I love it and would recommend it.

I couldn't remember off the top of my head, but this is from the detailed description: Outer Diameter: 10.75"- Cutout Diameter: 9.375"- Mounting Depth: 3.6"There is a template in the box that you can use to cut out the hole. I put them in drop ceiling tiles and it worked perfect.

The fixture comes with a nice little round piece that goes on the ceiling but if you want to use a medallion there is a formula for knowing what size to use. You can go on line and find out what it is. Try putting in "How to size ceiling medallion". I called a lighting store and one of the ladies told me how to do it but I do not recall how to do it. Hope this helps

It's about 5" round but I recently saw these plastic discs at Lowes that you can put above the cover plate to cover a larger hole. The discs are decorative and white plastic but paintable - so can be any color to match your ceiling. There are some awesome metallic spray paints that would make it look very similar in color to the cover plate.

No... Just go buy something from home depot. That's what I did. I spent $15 on quarter inch thick metal plate with one hole so I drilled guiding holes. I ended up returning this

Greg, I bought it just in case I lost a bulb assy on my Christmas Village houses. I haven't measured the size hole but I would guess at about .75-1.00" My village isn't up yet so I can't look.

We installed this fixture directly to a 3 1/2" round electrical box, on a smooth drywalled ceiling. The ceiling plate is about 4 1/4" accross and covered the cut out in the drywall nicely and we did not require a medallion. My husband is a building contractor, and he said that the instructions are a little vague and that hanging the crystals was a challenge, total time took about three hours, mostly the crystals ( not easy for chunky fingers ) make sure the crystals are facing the right direction when you hook them in the fixture.We have it in our spare bedroom, really sets the room off nicely.

I had 47" and it fit and looks great. It was a pain to put in til I bought my own hardware to mount it. Remember you'll have space to bury any excess of the flue up in your ceiling. Hope that helps. Oh yeah the finished height from ceiling to bottom of the unit ended up being 19.5" but I snipped a little off

We have this attractive hood as well. I'm not sure of the shaft itself but the outside box that covers the shaft is an 12 incheby 12 inch. Our handyman tossed the bracket hardware and accordian type vent pipe. He felt both were lightweight and for few dollars did his own upgrade. It is very attractive once installed. We were left with a small ceiling hole and just used a crown molding type trim that matched our new cabinets to close it all in.

"5-3/4-by-8-by-8-1/4-inch housing" This was the item description. The hole in my ceiling is 6 by 8 inch. From the item description it appeared that I can fit it to the hole in my bathroom ceiling. I couldn't make it out that the ceiling hole must be 8 by 8-1/4 inch. I thought that the hole must be 5-3/4-by-8 inch.
