Although this product is described as an "under cabinet" fixture, it has a dual design that allows it to be used as recessed, in-cabinet lighting as well. The mounting shell can be removed, leaving a lamp housing with a flush-mount trim ring. It is then a simple matter to cut a hole and push the mount up and in.

This fixture produces a pleasing light with great color fidelity. In our application, it is mounted in a kitchen corner cabinet with glass front and glass shelves, holding wine glasses and other transparent pieces. The pair of fixtures in the cabinet provides even light. The lens has just enough of a matte finish to avoid a glare in the viewer's eyes.

In our application this fixture is connected to a dimmer, and this also works flawlessly. Note well that you need to purchase a transformer separately--this "steps down" your local line voltage to the 12 volt current needed by the fixture. A small, "hard-wire" transformer mounted in the attic above the cabinet did the trick for us. (Electrical codes may require that the transformer and any wire splices be accessible. Since the area above our cabinet is not accessible, we needed to install in this manner.) You should ensure that the transformer has enough capacity--for our pair of fixtures, it needed to supply 50 watts including a safety margin--and that it is compatible with dimmers if you want your light dimmable.

This is a high-quality product.

Much better than the typical plastic pucks sold in home improvement or other online retail. Found that after a few years the bulb sockets on the cheaper ones inevitably fail and the covers distort. Had these several years and they look and work as good today as the day they were purchased. If your looking for a halogen puck light, have not found a better product. An excellent value for the money.

We purchased these lights to be placed under our upper kitchen cabinets. We had our contractor stick a transformer into the corner of the cabinets and centered the lights evenly. They add an attractive modern touch and soft light into the corner area of our kitchen which was too dark. The light beams down nicely onto a decorative glass bowl we that sits in the corner of the kitchen.

Excellent quality. I had the electrician replace and install. It took him only 15 minutes. Great light and good looks.
