I had already updated the recessed lighting in our kitchen built in the early 2000s but had not done the single one over our sink.I recently bought a pendant fixture for our breakfast area but it was too short.I had seen conversion kits for recessed lights with pendants already attached but never found a style I liked. I came across this and thought it was a great option to salvage the light I had already bought and add a nice update inexpensively.Installation was fairly easy. I have personally changed multiple light fixtures and fans in our home and others so that was fine. The instructions are a little vague at some parts and the pictures are unclear at times. I managed to do it though in about 45 minutes. So there is a slight curve especially when installing the bracket and drilling into the can. Don’t be intimidated though. I’m a little petite woman and did it while dinner was cooking so you CAN do this too.The light works great. I prefer more ambient lighting for this particular spot. Our other overhead light is bright but I prefer this in the evening while everyone is settling in. If I needed it brighter I just have to do a higher wattage bulb. Everything fits well and it’s sturdy. You can really choose and fixture so it’s a wonderful way you can DIY and upgrade your space. Definitely recommend

The shipping and handling took time, but the fixure was woth the delay. It took me 4 minuets to install in my aapartment's recessed lighting fixture.

Given the small space to work in a 6inch can. The bracket is not as easy to install as expected. But once it was in its seems sturdy

The conversion kit is solid. The instructions are clear, but if you’re like me you want a video and you can find an instructional video online too. So I was doing fine until it came time to screw it in, I didn’t have holes to screw into. Come to find out, you screw through the can. The only problem I came across was the design of the little medallion they included made it hard to install the light fixture I had bought. You don’t even have to use it though and I wish I realized that before installing. It works how it should.

These are exactly what I needed to convert my can fixtures. I did have to drill pilot holes though as the included self-tapping screws didn't work without them.

First, the bad:The self tapping screws are sheetmetal screws that require you to drill a pilot hole for them to work. They are no self tapping.The trim plate does not fit flush against the ceiling. The bracket sits below the drywall and against the lighting can. The thickness of the bracket and the cover ring keep the plastic trim from fitting tight to the ceiling.The good:Once the bracket was installed by drilling pilot holes hte rest of the installation was easy. I would have liked a little more room between the bracket and the fixture stud but it didn'tp revent installation. The screw in socket with t he wire leads seemed well made.
