We have the Mia one. My dad hardwired it for us. (He's a former builder/engineer) He also hooked it to a dimmer switch. Definitely put whatever light you choose on a dimmer! It puts out tons of light when on all the way. And just beautiful. We love it.
We got one as a nice gift from the grandparents from Restoration Hardware. It was not too difficult to install and was definitely bright enough, but make sure you look at what the light output you will have with any particular one.
We don't have a chandelier in baby's room, but I wanted to chime in as we have a 1916 house and are always sourcing items for it. eBay and Myhabit.com are GREAT places to find beautiful chandeliers. There are vintage, antique and new ones and are just unique and cool.
we have the ikea one. It is not on a dimmer. We have a nightstand with a side lamp for when I want/need the nursery darker.
My husband is an electrical engineer and installed it. I think the biggest pain for him was shortening the length of it to get it closer to the ceiling.
