Impossible to install
Regardless of how useless the instructions are, the included hardware makes it impossible to install these lights. The bolts are too short to get through the fixture, but if you go and buy longer ones you will not be able to screw the bulbs in. We bought 9 of these for a home remodel and ended up having to pay to have them installed. Once installed, they do not sit flush. DO NOT BUY.

    Do what ChopAgain says and buy the extra nuts!
    I spent a day and a half replacing a light fixture from fluorescent to integrated LED to incandescent because I kept running into issues. (FYI: Integrated LED lights do not work with motion sensor switches. Someone needs to fix that.) Anyhow, I finally settled on this incandescent light. I read ChopAgain's review about buying four extra 10-32 nuts (although I found that 8-32 fit, so be sure to take your screws with you... or dig them out of the box at the store), but forgot to do that while I was at the store buying the light. So, another trip to pick those up. I also bought an updated motion sensor switch that is supposed to work with LED bulbs. By the time I was finally ready to install the Appeal light, I had had enough. My junction box is chock full of wires, which made installation more difficult. But, I finally got the bracket and base on ... somewhat straight. The base is stuffed with fiberglass insulation, so it's a good idea to wear eye protection and a mask. Overall, a decent light at a nice price.

      Fiberglass shower
      Do t waist your money. this is a terrible fixture. It wall shed a substantial amount of fiberglass on you. The paint is so cheap that it will rub off on your ceiling with minimal pressure. Dont believe me go ahead but this garbage!

        Amazing product for the price! I needed lights with a smaller profile for my hallway and these were perfect. They're pretty and more modern. They are 2-bulb lights but I only use one 60-watt equivalent LED bulb because 2 bulbs are too bright. I think two 40-watt eq. LED bulbs might still be too bright. It was easy to install and looks great.

        Easy install instructions
        The instructions are garbage. You'll need some 10-32 nuts that are not included, 4 specifically. Also you will need some 1/2" screws if you have a short (pancake) j box. Attach the long screws to the bracket, screw them tight with some nuts. Attach the bracket to the j box with the shorter screws. Attach the wires with the wire nuts. Push the base tight against the ceiling, poking the screws through the holes in the base. Thread nuts onto the screws and tighten until base is almost tight against the ceiling. Adjust fixture to be straight. Put in bulbs. Put on cover and tighten to hold cover in place. If they had included 4 nuts and decent instructions everyone could install it easy. Do NOT skip the bracket, you'll never be able to straighten the fixture if you bolt it to the j box. Do NOT do what the instructions say and poke the screw head through the insulation and tighten in place. The whole fixture can slip off of one screw, causing extreme cursing the 3rd or 4th time. Use the nuts you bought, the fixture won't come off and hit you in the head.

        Excellent lights for the dollar.
        We bought these lights as part of a massive renovation/ update we did to the house we bought. The hallway in which they are located is a bit more narrow than the common house. However, by mixing the features of the hallway with these lights, we now have a nice evenly lit hallway from one end to the other. Overall, we are extremely pleased with these lights.

        Attractive in simplicity
        I needed a bedroom overhead which I could convert to a pull string on/off easily because the light was on the same circuit as a ceiling fan. Since I didn't always want them BOTH ON at the same time but they ran to a single room switch, I needed a pull string. All pull string lights are pretty ugly basement or closet type lights with no style. This simple clean overhead has a pretty mottled glass cover and a brushed nickel smooth side that was easy to convert with a drill and an adaptor.

                This is a terribly designed product. I ended up returning it because it was impossible to get it mounted securely to the ceiling due to the odd mounting hardware. It was also odd which screws they chose not to include in the packaging (though everything that was on the parts list, was in the box).

                Marshall was excellent. He's very knowledgeable about his job. He's customer service is outstanding. I only come in when he's working. Also the guys who helped me purchase a bathtub and the back surrounding were great too. They knew their job very well too and was also excellent in customer service. The delivery went well too. The gentleman who delivered it was great too. He was very professional and courteous. My experience with the employees was outstanding. That is why I shop at Home depot.

                Poor design
                Don't waste your time. Unable to tighten bolts so it would not sit flush with the ceiling. Closest I could get it was an inch gap. Absolute junk

                  This light is very nice and modernizes many flush mount situations. It is easy to change the bulbs. The install is similar to most flush mount lights and can sometimes be challenging to get the frame tight to the ceiling, but all in all a very good fixture at a good price.

                  Design is poor. You’ll need a wing nut to help with securing the base to ceiling. In the end bought a different LED light that was smaller and a lot simpler in design.
