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 place3. 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 tooI 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.

Painting project forced up to upgrade an old (1960) 2nd floor incandescent hallway light. We labored over what type/style would be best. Were apprehensive at first. This light was PERFECT. Easy installation. Clean design and attractive low profile look. MUCH brighter than our previous 100W incandescent fixture. An amazing improvement. We are considering buying more for other spaces in our home.

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.
