Reviews
So pleased it comes in the smaller size too!Anonymous reviewerI saw this item in the showroom and it was too big for a smaller room. Then I realised it comes in the smaller size! Beautiful bamboo, and gives a lovely warm light. Perfectly compliments NORDKISA range.
Does not come with all partsAnonymous reviewerBe aware that you will require a ceiling hook which does not come with the light. As well the ceiling black bit is plastic. Electronic bits for the wiring do not inspire confidence.
Looks great but a faffAnonymous reviewerHad to get a sparky out to come and fit it, didn't realise that we needed extras such as the hook.
Lovely Lampshade, Odd FittingsAnonymous reviewerI love the lampshades and the two different sizes make a lovely contrast in my home. However, why is the BIG ceiling fitting in black plastic and the actual electric cable also in black when most homes have white or light coloured ceilings. I had three fitted and managed to replace the fitting with white ones. They would have looked terrible in black. This plastic is now useless and wasted.
Poorly designed fittingsAnonymous reviewerThe lamp looks ok but is complicated to fit and requires extra bits not supplied.
It's really plasticy and not what I would expect from Ikea
Sinnerlig pendant ceiling lamp Anonymous reviewer I had to get someone to help me install them as I didn’t realise it was the full light fitting that was included at the time of purchasing them. Really love them.
Horrible to install but visually greatAnonymous reviewerBy far the worst ikea product I have ever had to install/construction. Absolute nightmare. Now that I have installed it it looks great but I have no confidence in the electrical connections as it required a lot of force to get the wires in place so the base would lie flat against ceiling. There is no way to check the connections aren't damaged without removing from ceiling, but then the same problem would occur when reattaching. There must be a simpler way for it all to fit together. Terrible design and cables are way too long. Now have to weigh up whether to pay an electrician to come and double check the fitting. Very disappointed in the poor technical design but love the overall look of the light.
I agree with a different commenter - absolutely need to just sell as a shade, not the whole fitting!! Then it would be 5/5 from me.
Striking shade Anonymous reviewerWe just needed one more to finish our lounge/dining area .. looks fabulous !!
Makes a real statement .
ChrisAnonymous reviewerReally nice lampshade. Bought two of these and they look great.
Disappointed Anonymous reviewerI’m disappointed that you don’t sell this as a simple lamp shade - forget the light fixture which is so complicated to install.
I would have been happy with this if it was just the lamp shade! At least give the option to buy it with or without!
Looks good but incomplete setAnonymous reviewerNot clear from description / store that this is not just a lampshade, but a whole light fitting. Need additional bulb (screw fitting) and a ceiling plate as the fitting requires a ceiling hook that is not provided.
Alright lampAnonymous reviewerBought this for my daughter's room and it took me a fair amount of time to get up. We had the right attachments but it was very fiddly and quite heavy so I struggled to hang it. Didn't help that the dog was trying to get at my ankles though haha.
Cheap, nasty fixingsAnonymous reviewerI have 2 of these, when up and working they look amazing.
The electrical fixings however are truly nasty, far from being quick, simplified connections to make fixing easy they don't provide a positive connection which could easily cause problems.
I took wire cutters to mine and used boring secure connectors instead.
Ikea for the sake of a pennies you really need to change this aspect as it makes what would be a simple job a right pain!
No hook to fit the lampAnonymous reviewerI recently bought this product and another light and neither come with the ability to fit to the ceiling. You have to buy additional products which are not made obvious at the time of buying and staff who serve you do not mention it. Personally this will be the last light fitting I buy from IKEA. If you don't make it match with normal ceiling roses then you need to supply the hook so people can actually fit the light to their ceilings or as a minimum make people aware of the unusual circumstances that IKEA think is acceptable so they can pay the extra for the hook. What a joke of a system and a money grabbing exercise from IKEA
Looks good in ikea but too hard to installAnonymous reviewerWill be returning as I didn’t realise it required a proper installation. It’s pretty awful that Ikea don’t make this clear
LampAnonymous reviewerBeautiful lamp- perfect size for our bedroom.
Nightmare to installAnonymous reviewerThese light fittings are beautiful but how on earth are they supposed to be installed? I brought the hook that was recommended in a previous comment and it’s still not fitting. I will never buy pendant lights from IKEA again, they’re a complete headache.
Needs to be wired in by an electricianAnonymous reviewerShade looks nice but IKEA please make it more obvious to us that this needs to be wired in by an electrician. Having this major detail buried away somewhere within the product details on the website, is not helpful. For this reason I have to return it.
Will have to bring it backAnonymous reviewerThe lamp looks very beautiful.
Unfortunately I didn’t realise it requires electrical works to connect it. I don’t feel safe to DIY it and don’t want to spend a lot on an electrician, so unfortunately I’ll have to bring it back
Such a lovely light. But awful trying to fit it.Anonymous reviewerThe hook fixture is a nightmare. Hook isn’t included and it’s been a nightmare. Such a same as it ruins the product. If my daughter hadn’t set her mind on it for her bedroom, we would have returned

Material
What is bamboo?
Strong, flexible and one of the world's fastest growing plants – bamboo has many uses that make it an excellent renewable material. It’s a type of grass and usually grows without the need for fertilizers or irrigation. After being harvested, it grows new shoots that are ready for harvesting after 4-6 years. At IKEA we use bamboo for items like furniture, bathroom decor, baskets and lamps – and we are constantly exploring more areas of use for this versatile material.

Designer thoughts
“Design is not always about inventing something new, but about placing things in a new context and or mixing traditional techniques with more modern approaches. Sometimes the best results actually come from using the best of old ideas. I hope that you can both see and feel that every handwoven lamp in the SINNERLIG series is special and that they bring a warm and natural feeling – wherever you choose to place them in your home."
