Comments about George Kovacs by Minka GK Lightrail Eight Light Monorail Kit in Brushed Nickel:
I'm really impressed with this light. I looked at several other stainless steel-looking track lights which all looked cheap up close. Thus I was hesitant to order this one. Was thrilled to see the high quality when opened the box, and love how it looks. I was skeptical if the small bulbs could light up my 22' x 12' office, but it does a great job. Looks fantastic. Only drawback is that it's tough to install perfectly. We laid it all out on the floor then ran a string down the middle of the ceiling to determine the right offset for each support. Quite a project, but well worth it!

Used it on a long entry hall that had a 90 degree bend. It worked great in illuminating the entire hall and leaving no dark areas.

Comments about George Kovacs by Minka GK Lightrail Eight Light Monorail Kit in Brushed Nickel:
We were remodeling our kitchen and were trying to add new light into the area that used to be our kitchen eating area. The hole in the ceiling from the previous light was off-center from the rest of the lights because it was centered over our table. We chose this lighting system because it allowed us to utilize that same hole, while giving us amazing light for the whole space...and we are very happy that we did. It looks AMAZING! We absolutely love it! My husband, the skeptic, is even sold on it now too! It is wonderful! It defintitely was a challenge to install trying to get it to hold it's shape going up, but we finally came up with a good system. We decided to lay it out on the floor just beneath the area where we wanted to hang it. Then we used push pins with a weighted string to pinpoint the exact places to install the braces. If we had to do it all over again, we would have started with just the two end points and once it was up on the ceiling with those, then we would have installed the others in between. We have heard that the lights will eventually turn the lamp shades pink so we plan to upgrade to a colored shade eventually.
