Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Almost 5 Stars
The light looks very attractive. I could not give it 5 stars though because the nuts do not thread far enough in to pin the backplate again the wall before it bottoms out. I had to use back spacers on the outside (which blended in well) of the plate to get the fixture against the wall. I even thought about 3 stars because of this but decided to be generous.

damaged goods all the way around
upon opening the box after picking up at the store, one of the glass globes that goes around the light bulb was broken so I was only able to use two globes instead of the full three. it was installed by an electrician and we put regular LED daylight light bulbs in and it flickered so then we had to go find soft white light bulbs which nowadays are quite expensive $7 for two and then 2 weeks later the whole thing stops working. the light bulb is blown so it's essentially a piece of crap

Lack of parts is inexcusable
So the product itself looks fine, but is definitely not the highest quality, which many other reviews point out. But for $80, it's a relatively solid vanity light. I'd say a 4. My problem is the directions/install. Step 2 is to use the included bolt and washer (not included) to attach the plate to the outlet box. Not included?? This is where you decided to cut out 1/4 of a penny? Wow, look at all the money you saved by not including a left over piece of scrap metal. And it's not like it'...

Shattered Globes. Just Horrible.
I saw this vanity light online and drove to a Lawes store to purchase it today (7/9/2026) as we are updating our main bathroom. Opened the box, and all the globes are shattered and broken! Just horrible. Returning asap!

Not much skill, LOTS of success on the install!
First of all, I am moderately skilled at DIY home improvement, and that's a stretch. The install directions were very easy to read, and once I found the right switch on the panel, I nailed it on the first try. I had two of these for a double sink area, and one of the junction boxes was sunk into the wall a bit, but I was able to pull it out enough and had to push the mounting screw out a bit to attach the screw cap. But, that was also easy. Even with that, I did both lights in about an hour!

Not packaged well
This item was an online only item. I ordered online and had it delivered to my house. The light fixture arrived with the 3 glass shades broken. They were wrapped only in bubble wrap and not securely fastened in the box. I returned it to the store and no issues with the return. I then ordered again and had it shipped to the store. I picked it up gave the box a little shake and could hear loose glass in there. The employee opened the box and once again there was one glass shade broken. They ret...

Perfect mix of tradition with a modern touch
I’m very excited to include this light fixture in our master bath renovation. I wanted to incorporate some modern lines with our traditional tile and vanity choices and this fits the bill perfectly. While we aren’t ready for the install quite yet my first impression is a positive one based on the care and details of the packaging! The instructions seem straightforward and I will look to update my review with how the fixture looks and functions once it is up.
