It's sold as a cabinet light, and I'm sure it's great for that, but I purchased it as a light to illuminate my computer keyboard when working in a dim room. It's absolutely wonderful at that: bright, glare-free and because of the wide span of the LEDs, pretty much shadow-free as well. Add to that the cool light and low power consumption of LEDs and it's just superb. Easy to install and very slim profile, too.

Purchased 25 units to go underneath my kitchen. 100s of LEDs...not a single one was dead.

I wired them up into one large circuit, spliced into boxes (per code) and the result is fantastic.

My wife is sensitive to light and this does not bother her. I consider them very bright.

One note LEDs are so bright that you need more than you think. if going under cabinets, where 2 boxes come together with a lip...this may cast a shadow. Needed a few more strips of lights to balance out the shadow.

glad i went with these. very happy. if considering puck lights, these are 100x better.

When this arrived, I plugged it in right away to see if it worked. Indeed, every LED lit up nice and bright. Then I looked for the on/off switch. I looked all over it. No switch! I thought maybe they had cleverly disguised one of the LED lights on the end to be a push-button on/off switch, but that wasn't it.

Then I noticed the instructions on how to INSTALL the in-line switch on the ELECTRICAL CORD.

This involves taking the supplied switch apart, clipping part of one of the wires leading from the device, and putting the switch in place so that it makes the clipped cord parts connect via the switch. The switch is the kind that is on the cord, with a small wheel you turn with your thumb to click it on or off. One has to be very careful not to cut the wrong wire when installing it, and not to accidentally cut through the adjacent wire in the process.

I am not a "handy" person, and I do not like to mess with anything electrical, so I found this task quite intimidating. I didn't want to risk doing it wrong, or leave any of the wire exposed, therefore creating a fire hazard. I also didn't want to risk permanently ruining the cord by accidentally doing something wrong, so I asked someone else with electrical experience to do it for me.

If you are more handy than I am, you'll need a small pliers made for clipping wires, and a small phillips head screw driver to take the switch apart.

I put them under my kitchen cabinets. But, I bought 3, then 1, at two different times. The light balance between the newer 1 and the original 3 is very different be aware that if you get a different batch of LEDs (I assume) you might see this effect (similar to the difference in light quality between the two different fluorescent types). It is very noticeable in my kitchen, it's not a small difference. We are going to have to move the new one to a different location so that it is not as obvious when you turn the lights on.

Other than that, I love them. This wouldn't be an issue for everyone, but I took off a star as a warning.

I ordered two of these fixtures, one worked fine but the other was defective. The vendor return policy on Amazon was to contact the manufacturer for defective units. I did so and found that they would not honor their warranty. They told me to return it to the vendor, who would not, of course, accept it.

Bottom line. Fifty percent or one of two fixtures being defective is really bad quality. Not standing behind your product warranty shows no faith in the items you produce and is a disastrous policy for your product quality reputation.

I will eat my loss and never purchase a Good Earth Lighting product again.

Too bad I couldn't give it zero stars!
