Maxim Lighting - LED Flushmount - Flush Mount - Prime-32.5W 5 LED Flush Mount-20

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My home was built in the mid-80's and they weren't particularly concerned with lighting or temperature control in my master closet (no HVAC vent). So, replacing the tiny little light in a room that gets really hot in the summer with an LED fixture seemed like a great idea. This may have been a little larger than I needed, but I'm thrilled with the result! It's like I've got a small version of the sun shining in there when the light is on, without any extra heat being generated. Of course, it's much more fashionable than the old light I had, too, so now I may have to update the rest of my closet:-). I have to admit that I waivered between 4 and 5 stars because the installation was a little more challenging than I expected. For starters, the insert tells you to carefully read through the instructions, but there are only a series of pictures - and they really only show the parts and address putting the actual fixture together and not how to install, so while light fixture replacement is a relatively easy home update, I wouldn't try to do it for the first time based on these pics. Also, when I installed the crossbar, either I bent it when I was screwing it on, or it came that way. Be very careful with that, as attaching the fixture is already challenging if the screws are straight, and they will definitely be angled if the crossbar is bent. Also, it would have been nice if the screws used to attach the fixture had been a tiny bit longer. The hardest part of this install was lining up the fixture with the two screws that extended down from the crossbar, as they just had a tiny bit to attach the ball nuts to. Lastly, if you just glance at the directions like I did (because it was minimal), you might miss that you have to attach the outer cloth shade to the fixture BEFORE you attach the body of the fixture to the ceiling. If you don't, you're pretty much put in the position to take the entire thing down and start over. Again, though, I couldn't be happier with the lighting and appearance of the final product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fixture is very well made. It was very easy to install. It looks very modern and puts out a lot of light. I will be changing all my flush mounted fixtures to this because it adds a very modern look.
