This is a great fixture I had a handyman install it, which did not take long. The only issue I really have with it is because you can adjust the spacing of the lights on the track, at first some of them would wiggle loose and cause the strip to go out had to reach up and jiggle it around to get it back on but once in firmly no issues. It looks great with a dimmer and is easily adjustable.

Received the product today and it appears this item was already returned as the power supply cords and mounting hardware were missing. One light had a pretty big dent in it as well. Item has already been packed up and ready to send back. Hopefully round #2 goes better.

Honest reviews on Nuvo Lighting TK349 3-Light Line Voltage 50-Watt MR16 GU10 Base

After installation I discovered that none of the lighting fixtures made good enough contact to work properly. I had to twist the track to alter the profile and managed to get two of the lights to illuminate while I held the track twisted. I've never seen a track lighting kit with such poor workmanship and quality. I would suggest that you not bother to purchase this kit for it would be a waste of money.

I bought this because the MR16 fixture in our old place needed to be replaced, and when I took it down, I had four LED bulbs with the small two needle-style prongs left over.

So, rather than spend the extra money on new bulbs for what seems to be the universal GU10 fixtures, I thought, heck, let's search by bulb type and get a fixture that way.

This seemed perfect. The title says "Nuvo TK354 Brushed Nickel MR16 round back track lighting kit". The description says MR16 bulbs. The Nuvo product website says MR16 bulbs for this product. So I expected to have a lighting fixture that showed up, with three fixtures, that were intended for MR16 light bulbs.

I mean, it makes sense, right? You order GFCI power outlets, you expect that they are, indeed, rated for GFCI usage instead of, say, double-pronged holes with asbestos wiring from the 1920s. That's the whole "has what it says on the tin" theory. What is in the box is what should be in the box.

So what shows up? A busted, torn box with two GU10 fixtures missing screws and attaching hardware, instead of my expected fully-equipped, 3 fixture MR16 track lighting.

Not only is the box busted (and appears to have been retaped, which is never, EVER a good sign, especially if it's been shipped for a Saturday express delivery SERIOUSLY, GUYS) but it's also supposed to come with three, not two lamp fixtures. A careful count and recount results in a grand total of TWO fixtures for this product. I think to myself, well, it says MR16/GU10 on the box, so perhaps the fixture plugs actually mean it has both MR16 AND GU10 adapter holes?

Nope. These are GU10 fixture heads, NOT MR16. Even poking the holes in a sad, futile attempt to think to myself, "Okay, maybe if I duct-taped the bulbs it would work and not catch on fire" made me realize that whoever put this thing together has a very low comprehension of things like "appropriate part compatibility labeling" and/or "Truth in advertising". Specifically, I'm looking at Amazon for the last one, because I purchased it with the express note that this was NOT a GU10 track system.

No, really. There is NOTHING on the Amazon site that implies or suggests it could possibly include GU10 fixtures instead of MR16. I checked a few times just to make sure I wasn't imagining things. I also checked the box a few times to make sure I wasn't imagining that there weren't any screws or caps included, and that there were indeed only two fixtures.

And you know, if I, say, OWNED GU10 bulbs, or felt like spending another $80 on new bulbs for the fixture instead of using the existing bulbs I have, I might be okay with that.

But right now I'm short a fixture head, some screws, and I have a product I spent extra money getting shipped so I can finish a project over the weekend that is not what is advertised in the product label or in the box.

I'm positive that if you expect GU10 bulb fixtures or don't have a specific MR16 fixture requirement this would probably suit you just fine. At this point, though, I'm thoroughly irked with the product and do not recommend it simply based on the fact that even the BOX says "MR16/GU10". So if you have your heart set on this, don't buy new bulbs until you get the fixture itself and decide that you're going to keep it.

It's also entirely possible that somewhere out there someone with a bunch of GU10 LED bulbs is going, "THE HECK IS THIS? I wanted GU10 fixtures, not MR16 fixtures! This is crap and totally not what I wanted at all!"

All I have to say to that guy is: I completely understand where you're coming from, man, and just do what I'm doing: Return With Prejudice and let people know how you really feel.

Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

This lamp is not what you may think it is from the photos and description. It is quite small which was hard to ascertain because there was only a weight given (they are quite heavy) and no dimensions. This is quite a tiny lamp, about 14" tall and the brim of the shade about 7" across. Also, the photo shows what the lamp colour is like when it is turned ON. When off the shade is very, very pink with a very purple edge. Not the more white and blue tones shown. I have kept the lamps as they are nice and luckily still suit the room I bought them for. They most definitely were NOT what I thought I was going to get though!

This thing is bright! We live on a dark street and this thing is at least twice a bright as the city street lights. My neighbor said she no longer has to turn on the lights when she gets up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. Nobody else seems to be selling these but they are the best. I just bought a second one for another property. Another neighbor put up a couple of HomeDepot's $75 lights and this is much brighter than those.

This is the fourth Hunter Low Profile ceiling fan we've purchased for our home. This 42-inch four-blade model is perfect for smaller bedrooms with eight-foot ceilings. The housing fits nicely on the ceiling where the light fixture was, it doesn't hang down too low, and it's very quiet for sleeping. Hunter suppresses the motor sound by using rubber bumpers between the mounting bracket and ceiling, soft rubber grommets for each blade, and of course a quiet motor. We're very satisfied with this product, and our first two are still quiet after three years.

We love the new Hunter fan. It is very quiet and has the lowest profile of any fan we saw. It is great for low ceilings like ours.

Best Deals for Hunter 23866 42-Inch White Lowprofile II Fan

This is a nice ceiling fan, but a design flaw in installation components can complicate its installation. Unless you can cut an 8" hole in your ceiling dry wall and recess the ceiling mounting bracket 1/2" into the drywall you are going to have a 1/2" space between the top of the fan housing and the finished ceiling. This is caused by a poorly designed mounting bracket. The only other way to get around cutting a larger hole in your drywall is to purchase or make a decorative ceiling circle to fill in this 1/2" void between the finished ceiling and the top of the fan housing. I made my own, but that turned a 2 hour job into a 4 day event. Sometimes I wonder if the people who design these products have ever tried installing them. By the way, this fan is advertised as having plastic blades-actually the blades are made of MDF (medium density fiberboard). 4 stars instead of 5 because of the installation difficulties.

Honest reviews on Hunter 23866 42-Inch White Lowprofile II Fan

This is a no-frills ceiling fan for smaller rooms. No remote, no fancy chain plugs but it works and is VERY quiet. I did not need to balance the blades at all.

The installation is a little strange. The fan does not come with screws for your electrical box but instead comes with screws to drive up through the wall covering (drywall, plaster, etc.) and into the structure beneath. When I remodelled I installed metal boxes for my wiring mounted between the joists with a 2x4 and 3" wood screws. Luckily for me I was able to drive the screws up through the drywall and into this 2x4 I extended between the joists. For anyone else wanting to use their reinforced box they will need to purchase their own machine screws or hope that the ones that came with their box are long enough to reach through the mounting bracket. Mine were not, however, I was able to use the wood screws included with the fan.

There are four bushings that sit between the bracket and the ceiling that make the bracket feel much more "sturdy" and allows you to tighten the screws quite well to prevent any wobbling or vibration.

The blades install to the decorative arm with "grommets" inserted into holes in the blades. The screws will not tighten all the way down but will instead leave some "wiggle" in the arms and fan blade. I was concerned about this at first but after installing and running the fan at full speed my concerns were unfounded. The fan is sturdy and quiet.

All-in-all this is an excellent product and really fits the bill nicely when you want a flush-mount fan with no light kit. Keep in mind, however, that this fan leaves about 1/2 to 5/8" of space between the ceiling and fan shroud, so if you have a rather large hole you're trying to cover you'll need a ceiling medallion. Thankfully I finished my boxes with no gap in the drywall around them so I did not have the need for a medallion.

If you do have to use the box machine screws to hold your bracket and feel less than comfortable with how secure your bracket is I suggest buying some red Loc-Tite for installing the screws. Apply liberally to the threads on the screws and, once dried, your screws will not back themselves out no matter how much the fan vibrates.

One excellent idea that the manufacturer did was include extra fasteners! If you drop one of the pretty blade mounting screws you will have an extra one. I had an extra blade mounting screw, bushing, and blade to bracket screw in each of my three fan kits.

These bike lights seem to be approaching HID headlight performance. This light has enough brightness that I believe I could use it on the high setting to safely ride a motorcycle going up to 40 mph. I ordered this light, but the one I got was branded as Sky Ray S6. After checking with the supplier, I was told that my light is the same as the SecurityIng, but just branded as the Sky Ray S6 instead.

The 1st button push is 33% bright. The 2nd button push makes it 100% brighter than the first. The 3rd button push is 33% brighter than the other two. Then strobe, then off. It has ample brilliance to ride on the first single lamp only if you would rather save battery power.

The one drawback is the black mounting bands. The light has a tendency to slide downwards from the vibrations and bumps. Another thing I didn't like is that there was no documentation that came with the light. (No receipt, warranty card, or instructions) Just plastic wrapped in a SecurityIng box. However the supplier said that this light carries a 1 year warranty.

Is it worth $70? To me...yes.

I purchased 2 of these lights, each with a 6600mAh Battery and charger. The light itself is very powerful and will certainly brighten any situation you find yourself in. The head strap works -but the cord gets in your way. WARNING: The battery that ships with these lights are suspect at best. One battery will NOT hold a charge -which makes this battery nothing more than a small brick. I am very hesitant to buy another battery especially from ePathDirect.

Kathy Ireland Amor Collection 26" High Accent Table LampThis lamp had good reviews, and I liked the style of it, but in the photo of it it showed "regular" light bulbs. When I received the lamp it had been reworked to use the "new" type bulbs that are very expensive. Also the light bulbs almost touch the glass shade. I didn't want to bother to send it back since I had used my Amazon points to purchase it. It looks nice, but if I'd bought it at a local store, I would probably have returned it. I really don't like being forced away from using the type of bulbs I prefer. I don't care for the look of the ones they want you to switch to. It is fine to offer the option, but the consumer should be able to choose and not have to pay $5 for a bulb! Pretty lamp, but the description should state what bulbs to use.
