Bought 2 of these to mount vertically on either side of our bathroom mirror, replacing vertical fixtures that were original to the house. Since the lights are bright, we could have gotten enough light for this medium-sized bathroom with one fixture mounted horizontally over the mirror--but I like the look of two. Bulbs that came with the lights are still going strong after almost 2 yrs.

I purchased this light for my small guest bathroom to be mounted horizontally above the vanity. It is very stylish and fits the modern look of the bathroom very well. One thing to notice is that the light bulbs matter! At first we ordered T10 incandescent bulbs through Amazon but they were not bright enough. We returned those and ordered bulbs that specifically stated they were 500 lumens each (lumens measure the brightness). This helped significantly! The bathroom is only 30 square feet and has a skylight, so this may be too dim for othersbut they do make T10 halogen bulbs that are 900 lumens each which would work (probably with a dimmer) to provide more light. Either way, the bulb is separate from the fixture, so I still give this fixture 5 stars.

The item description lists this as being an incandescent fixture. In reality, it uses GU24 CFL bulbs (included). This raises two issues: replacement bulbs are not readily available, and CFLs are short-lived when frequently cycled such as in a typical bathroom (turn on the light, get your business done, then back out the door you DID wash your hands, didn't you ...?)

Other than that the fixture is well-made, can be oriented both horizontally or vertically, is rated for damp locations, and is clean and attractive. Can't comment on the quality of the lighting since I didn't get that far in the installation.

I bought the incandescent version to replace this CFL model:

I wanted to buy two lights to place vertically on each side of my bathroom mirror. I've had these for a few weeks and they give off the right amount of light to have two, love them! Just wish they were a bit more affordable, but don't regret the purchase!

The light looks cheap. You can see the screws on the square back base and they're not even screwed in straight. There was also clear dried glue on the metal piece that wraps around the white bulbs.
