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 TK354 Brushed Nickel MR16 Round Back Track Lighting Kit

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.
