The light is nice and lit the hallway much nicer than my old fixture which burnt out those small global bulbs every month. There are a few things to care for when installing. It took about 10 minutes from start to finish, and I offer these steps to help you do so too. 1. Have a separate light source so you can see what you are doing. 2. Make sure there is at least 4 inches of source black/white wiring to be able to work it in place 3. Do not use the 3 felt feet as it puts a space between the fixture and the ceiling and it wont catch the bracket. I removed the old fixture and pulled the black/white wires out as long as possible. I removed the wire cover from the new light, and the mounting plate too I then used the 2 screws that provided to attach the plate to the existing mounting bracket inside the existing fixture. Make sure the new bracket sits flush to the ceiling and doesn't creep into the hole, else the flanges do not stick out enough and won't catch on the light. I attached the new bracket and stuck the wires into the holes (Black = L, white = N). I gave them a tug to be sure they wont come out. ** While now hanging from the ceiling I tested the light. I then put the wire cover back on. I had to use a stubby screw driver since you have very little room to work, but it only took 10 turns or so to get it in. ** Once it's screwed on test the light again!!! Sometimes the wire may come out if you didn't push it in hard enough. Then I lifted the light over one of the bracket clips (I suggest the one that is "closest" to the ceiling hole). If the light cannot "catch" the first clip, then you need to loosen the screw a few turns to allow the bracket to be less flush to the ceiling. Once I got the bracket under one of the clips , I pulled the metal "bracket release" and lifted the other end of the light and push it against the ceiling with some force to ensure it's flat. I then let the catch release go and it grabbed the light... took a few times. The light was then holding nicely and I was done. People complain about the battery cover being hard to put back on. If the wire out of the ceiling is too short then simply put a longer dongle/wire and you should be fine. People also complain about the light not being able to grab the bracket... you cannot use the felt feet and you may have to not tighten the bracket too hard against the ceiling. All in all it took just some care and an extra try or two to get it mounted. A little more effort but for the price it was worth it.

As others have said, the installation was quite simple. I helped my husband with the install & I have to repeat what others have said. (Do not add the 3 bumpers to the bottom of the fixture as it will make it hard to attach). My only other recommendation would be to mark the area on the side you plan to attach last as it will be easier lining it up to finish the installation. I was worried that it would hug the ceiling too close or not close enough. I’m actually very happy with the look of it. My bathroom is long and narrow & my old fixture would only light up one side of the bathroom well, where as this one throws more light the full length of the bathroom. There are no color options, it is not dimmable and there is no motion detector. This is a very simple light. I can’t speak for its Lifespan as I’ve just put it up. As for functionality, I’d say this is perfect. Not too big, not too small. Just right.

14 months ago, we bought and installed 5 of these in our kitchen, replacing ugly builder lights. They were not easy to mount, and we had problems with one of them repeatedly falling. We would come into the kitchen to find it hanging from its wires. Eventually, this was resolved but 2 days ago we discovered a different one hanging. This one had spontaneously broken a mounting bracket overnight! Nobody bumped it or touched it in any way. I just ordered 2 more since this one has to be replaced and I decided to keep a spare. The light itself is undamaged, but can't be mounted on the ceiling due to the bracket being toast! It is a shame since they are nice and bright and look good on the ceiling. The mounting brackets are badly engineered. August 2. I'm adding to this review and bumping it up to 5 stars since we installed the replacement for the broken one. The mounting system has been completely redesigned and now works just great. I'm glad we bought a spare, since I don't expect the original lights to last as long as the newer ones.

I purchased this for use on a home project and the ease of installation paid for itself. The functionality was what I was hoping for. Really brightened up the area. I will be using this seller in the future.

We loved this light!! Bought it for all our hallways, closets, alcove for a condo reno. I got the Daylight white- really lights up the hallways and closets. So much so that my husband was wondering if it was "too bright" for the closet. Not a bit- I want to be able to SEE all the clothes. So function of a bright light is important. If you have a huge walk in closet the size of a bedroom, where you sit and drink tea while selecting your outfit and want a cozy ambiance, then this light may not be the one in the Daylight White. Also the 9 inch was perfect size for hallway and closet. I bought the 13 inch one for the larger alcove. Installation- done by our contractor-he had no problem. Aesthetic- looks sleek, modern, simple in design. Cost is reasonable and in my opinion looks more expensive than it is. This is an LED light fixture so hoping it lasts a while before it needs to be replaced.

These fixtures spread the light out better than similar products which only illuminate the area directly below the fixture. The frosted light cover directs light down as well as to the sides, so you don’t end up with a spotlight effect. The only negative is the installation procedure. If you have short electrical wires coming out of your ceiling electrical box you may find it difficult to insert the wires into the fixture. Instead of having wire leads coming out of the fixture, these fixtures require you to insert the existing wires into the fixture’s wire clips which is difficult if you don’t have long leads. To rectify the situation I inserted my own electrical wires into the fixture and used wire nuts to secure them to the electrical box wires. One other tip is to be sure to take a picture of the mounting bracket before you remove it from the fixture to begin installation. Pay attention to which way the bracket needs to face. If you accidentally attach the bracket upside down, which I did at first, it will make it very difficult to snap the fixture into the mounting bracket.

It's not a safety compliant light, and I could tell that from the connection box. It seems like they bought some kind of plug in light, took the CORD off, and put a connector on it. The light assembly has no ground, it is just a tiny compartment where you can Only stick the wires through the small hole that looks like it was meant to fut in 16 gauge or smaller CORD, not cables or soft or hard wire. It's not even possible to strip and plug the wires into the connector at the compartment, you have to strip them and Then poke them through the hole, which is completely unsafe. Outside the electrical compartment, there is a Tiny "rail" space for your wires to fit between the assembly and your ceiling. If you have Hard wires, you Will struggle to get the wires to fit so you can snap the assembly on the mount. The space, again, is made to fit a Soft Cord, not wites, and certainly not any splices. I struggled at the ceiling for almost an hour with exactly That, trying to get the wires into a position so that Icould get the light on at all. It was such a struggle that the wires came out of the connector(inside the assembly) and the light fell. Fortunately, it is Not fragile. I had to do it all over again, and I ended up Not even tightening the mount all the way just so I could have space for wires. It doesn't really matter because the assembly is light and the indent space is open anyway, so there would be no enclosure even if you were able to flush mount it. The light itself was "sufficient", but it is Not designed for a bathroom. There was not enough dispersal to reach my bath all the way, and this is not a big bath room. It seems to be better sized for a moderate closet. In terms of brightness, yes, it is very bright and white. The area is well lit. I was an electrician.

This light is a very bright white. Far brighter than expected and very harsh. I took the chance of a 5000k light and learned my lesson! Still, it certainly works well and puts out a lot of light so if that is what you are looking for, go for it. If you want a softer, yellower light, look elsewhere. My real beef is the push-in connectors for the wires. They really do not hold very well and pull out as you maneuver the thing onto the bracket, a process that is pretty tight as it sits flush with the ceiling. Because you have to push the wires into the connectors and then screw a 'waterproof' cover over the connections. This system pretty much requires that you use pigtail wires to plug into the light and then use wire nuts to connect the pigtails to the power supply in your ceiling box. It is fairly tricky to get it mounted on the bracket without putting enough pressure on the wires to cause them to slip out of the less-than-tight push connectors on the body of the light. Another issue is the bracket that screws to the ceiling box is not made for american ceiling boxes. The screw holes do not line up and you can't really center the light on the ceiling box. You can work around it but how hard would it be for the manufacturer to drill holes appropriate to the market to which they are selling? I do give them credit, however, for the fairly clever way the light connects to the bracket and allows it to sit flush with the ceiling. That worked easier than I thought it would. All in all - it is a good (if very harshly bright) light with some quirky installation issues. I would recommend it if you are looking for a very white and very bright light and are moderately mechanically skilled and can deal with the wiring and bracket quirks.

Light weight and bright enough for my toilet.

Vlotte levering en zeer eenvoudig te plaatsen. Mooi resultaat. Zeer tevreden.

very easy to install, very bright, customizable and easy to use.

mooie lamp en veel licht

Es ligero e ilumina muchisimo. Viene con todo lo necesario para poder instalarlo. Si tienes agujeros anteriores, es posible que puedas aprovecharlos, se monta con un sistema que te da un cierto juego para adaptarte, aunque no ha sido mi caso y he tenido que hacer un agujero más. El sistema de acople de los cable electricos es muy sencillo, siempre que dispongas de cierta longitud de cable en el techo para trabajar. Tampoco ha sido mi caso y he tenido que añadir un cable extra. Muy trabajoso para una sola persona que ha de aguantar el plafón mientras hace las conexiones. Salvado todo esto, es una maravilla e ilumina de lujo. Esperamos que dure lo que indica el fabricante.
