big enough light for my kitchen?

My kitchen has a single ceiling light in the center of the room, plus flourescents over the counters.

The room is a galley kitchen, 14 feet long and 7.5 feet wide, with cabinets taking up an entire long side, plus most of the other side.

I like this flushmount ceiling fixture--it's an oval, which is unusual, and would look nice in the long, skinny ceiling, I think.

Is it too small? 18" long, 10" wide.

(the sales pitch says "use this in a laundry room or closet")

Does it have enough light? It uses three 60-watt bulbs.


The current light fixture looks just about right--it's 12" at the glass and 16.5" at the outside of the collar. It uses two bulbs, I think.
