allen + roth Merington 37.5-in 5-Light Brushed Nickel Transitional Vanity Light Collection

attractive light fixtures

i very recently purchased 3 of these to install in 2 different bathrooms in my house. i found the metal finish and the glass light shades to be a good crossover between modern and traditional. it will be so nice to update our 23 year old lighting!

Broken on delivery

Don't waste your time. Ordered two online since they dont have them in any of the lowes locally and upon arrival both had broken shades. The reason is because whoever the genius is in charge of packaging design thought putting the glass shades on the bottom of the box and the fixture on top of them was such a great idea and probably shocked no one else had thought of it yet! I'll take my business to the big orange store who doesn't ship with fedex. It's honestly amazing both lights even got deli...

The fixture is nice, but one of the glass covers was shattered during delivery

Recommended A19 bulb extend below glass shades

The pics featured clearly do NOT involve the recommended A19 bulbs, which extend below the glass shades; and given the light fixture is higher on the wall, the bulbs are even more conspicuous. Would be nice to know which bulbs were used, eh?

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 washers 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.

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

Check before you install

I have this fixture in a different bathroom and love it. We bought it again to install in our daughter's bathroom, and after installing it realised one of the light bulb sockets is broken and loose. It still works, so we're keeping it because she lives hundreds of miles from the nearest Lowes and we don't want to mess with the whole return/reinstall mess.

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'...

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!
