Okay, just get the candelabra bulbs, forget about E14 whatever or bi-pin, although it probably would take a bi-pin bulb. Looks nice, gives good light, reasonably priced, should have bought two, just relieved that I finally got the right bulb.

Cheap Eglo 88474A Dakar-1 Matte-Nickel 4-Light Track Light Fixture
This light was perfect for above the kitchen sink. My house was built in 1992 and the sink has a lower ceiling than the rest of the kitchen, therefore a pendant light would not work. This was great, much nicer than the picture appears and you can aim the lights in various areas, it helped brighten up my entire kitchen as well as make it more modern looking. If you are thinking about it, I would highly recommend it. Just a note, it takes the smaller candelabra base light bulbs, but it can use up to 4 60 watt bulbs, which makes plenty of light. It made me hesitate to order it at first, but now that I have it, I would not give a second thought before ordering it again! Love it! Easy to mount, easy to look at, looks great with my new kitchen window too!

I live in an apartment that does not have a light fixture above the bathroom mirror. I wanted a light fixture that could mount on the wall above the medicine cabinet and plug into the nearby outlet without any substantial installation into my landlord's drywall. This lamp is perfect.
There is a transformer on the end of the cord (which may crowd your outlet if you have another appliance with such a transformer). This means the fixture itself is light (but it feels very solid). I drilled one hole, put in a drywall anchor, screwed in one screw with 1/8 inch of the head exposed, and hung this little lamp on the screw head. It has a slot on the flat back for exactly that purpose.
At first I felt like the light was too bright with too much glare. But then I pointed it towards the ceiling. The back part of the shade is a hemisphere of metal with many little holes. This perforated material faces down towards the sink, and the open end of the shade face the ceiling. In this arrangement, the lamp gives off great light, nice and bright, but with no glare. It is almost as nice as if my bathroom had a high quality light installed above the medicine cabinet in the first place.
The cord has a switch on it, which is pretty close to the lamp base--so that I have to reach up to turn it on and off. The switch is the kind of plastic casing in line with the cord with thin plastic wheel protruding from both sides. This is not my favorite kind of switch, but this is such a great light fixture for the purpose that I am thrilled.
Be forewarned that the metal gets very hot and can burn your fingertips.
I would recommend to others
It gets bonus points for being dimmable and coming with a relatively-easy-to-install rotary switch that can be positioned at any point on the power cord. I'm very happy with this purchase!

I purchased this light for a wall in my home office, and it does the job stylishly. The craftsmanship is reassuring, and it looks just as great under close scrutiny as it does from a distance. The small switch on the underside, while not essential, gives me peace of mind: as soon as the base leaves the surface that'll otherwise press the switch (wall, floor), the power is cut and the (hot) light turns off.It gets bonus points for being dimmable and coming with a relatively-easy-to-install rotary switch that can be positioned at any point on the power cord.

I love my new fixture. Looks great. This was the first time installing a light fixture, so it probably took me longer than it would for others. The only pain was the chain. I'm guessing its the same way with all fixtures with chain. I had to go buy bolt cutters to shorten the chain. I couldn't cut the links with any other tools I had. It wouldn't bend at all in a vice grip. I also purchased 2 quick link fasteners instead of trying to bend the chain and then bend it back. Overall, I'm really happy with my new light. Looks great in a breakfast area.

OttLite T92BNT Vero Floor Lamp in Brushed Nickel Review

List Price: $109.99
Sale Price: $89.99
Today's Bonus: 18% Off

I've had this lamp and it's desktop version for several years now and I thought I should offer a review since I'm experienced with them. My parents bought these for me as a birthday present before I moved out to college. That was in 2006 and I still have these lamps. The metal finish doesn't show scratches, and it doesn't scratch easily. The original bulbs are still going and I run them often. The transformer in the lamps originally made a slight humming noise but I no longer notice it. They flicker to turn on but that isn't anything to fuss over. Reading on the computer or in a textbook with these lamps is like reading them out in natural, perfectly bright, sunlight.
I lived in Florida my whole life and then moved to New York where dismal gray occurs much more often. The lamps definitely helped me get over the sun setting hours earlier and the gray days. Having them on definitely made me feel like there was still sunlight outside coming into my room, even late at night.
The lamps get as warm as any other lamp in my experience, and can be quite bright when looking at the bulb. However, the lamps don't put out as much light as regular lamps. I actually use the desk lamp on my desk, and the floor lamp right next to my desk to cancel out the shadows. I have a central ceiling light in my room and use that in conjunction with these to create a brightly lit room. But these lamps weren't made to be really bright, they were made to imitate sunlight coming through a window, and that they do perfectly.
I recommend one change for customers to make to this lamp: assemble the top lamp part backwards from what the picture shows. The difference won't be too apparent, except the felt pad to keep the lamp pieces from scratching won't be in the right position. If you do this, the lamp can angle upward much more than the other way, and spread out the light across a greater area. I really liked this change; if you dislike the dark look that lamps create by lighting only certain areas, you will enjoy it too.
Despite a few set backs (brightness and needing to make a small modification), I still give these lamps 5 stars. They're five years old and look brand new, they are still stylish, they still get compliments for their looks and the light they output. Best of all, they actually do what they claim to do as OttLites: produce natural-looking sunlight. And they are definitely worth this reduced price.
The lighting itself is fine. It takes three or four "blinks" before the light flashes on fully. Guess that might be expected of fluorescent lamps. On one of the lamps I bought, the starter did not fit in properly (loose fit) and needed manual handling before the light would come on.
An expensive affair. Wish they had at least two bulb/tubes in there.
The lighting does look natural.

Ordered this lamp to satisfy several requirements we had. We needed a lamp that was visually almost invisible, was excellent for reading, was floor-standing, and would fit behind a wall hugging recliner in a corner room position. It met all of these requirements perfectly. The only issues relate to satisfactorily tightening of the post to base and of the tilt arm. Concerned with overtightening, both tend to loosen up a bit with contact.Honest reviews on OttLite T92BNT Vero Floor Lamp in Brushed Nickel

I was looking for an Energy Star rated, moderately priced, ceiling fan with light for a bedroom. This model met my needs. This is the fourth ceiling fan I have installed in my years as a homeowner, but I lay no claim to being a ceiling fan expert. It may take me a bit longer than average, but I am persistent and all of my fan installations, including this one, have ended up working just fine.
This fan may be the best designed of those I have installed. First, it was expertly boxed, for both compactness and content protection. The production quality of its parts is superior, and they fit together beautifully. It is shipped with all necessary hardware, in fact, more than you actually need. The assembled and mounted fan is attractive and super quiet (actually, noiseless). With five blades, it moves lots of air, and the lighting unit puts out just the right amount of soft light for general room lighting..
Although I am very happy with the final result, I was very frustrated during its installation because of the confusing, incorrectly sequenced installation instructions. A ceiling fan engineer may not have had any problem, but the average do-it-yourself person will have the same problems I had. If the manufacturer of this fan had simply had a non-professional do a trial installation using their installation manual, the lack of clarity would have become immediately obvious. In an apparent effort to cut corners on printing costs, the instructions combine three scenarios for installation: using a drop-down mount, using a flush-to-ceiling mount, and using Canadian mounting requirements. It was not well done. I would gladly have paid a few more dollars for an installation manual that was crystal clear upon a first reading.
If you buy this product, expect some frustration during installation. But if you tough it out, you will be well satisfied with the end result.

Reviews of Trans Globe Lighting 4581 WB 16-Inch 2-Light Outdoor Wall Lantern
It is waaaayy larger than you can imagine. Our original wall lanterns were 14-inches so I thought it wouldn't hurt to go up two inches. The pictures and description just don't give you the sense of scale this thing has so I ordered them. Big mistake. I could tell the minute I took it out of the box this was too big. You need a large home for this piece and mine isn't that big. I was able to return it and purchased the 12-inch lanterns instead. Much better. Amazon was great on the return process, by the way. My recommendation is to order the smaller lantern if you are unsure about size.
I didn't fully inspect/unpack all the lights for several months after purchase while I waited for our home to be resided. When I did, I found a glass panel broken. The seller responded immediately and hooked us up! Great job! I will buy from this seller again!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We have had these lights in black finish for about a year. They still are working fine and only show minor weather wear when you look up close. They are a nice size for having one on each side of our 2 door garage. The glass is white opaque so it softens the light more than a plain clear glass. You also can't see the ugly bulb if you go with a CFL twist. We like them well enough to get another set.Best Deals for Trans Globe Lighting 4581 WB 16-Inch 2-Light Outdoor Wall Lantern
