What Customers Are Saying
The light provides bright, adjustable illumination that significantly improves visibility in dark areas. However, many users report the product is not durable, with a high failure rate within the first year of use. While the light performs well when functioning, the reliability issues and problematic warranty process make it a risky purchase.

Love this light! Can be directed in any direction. Put it up in garage. Entire garage is lit up well enough to work in garage after dark. Easy to install.

Good product
This is the third one I have bought. They make a room as light as outdoors.

It gets very bright!
Would RecommendI purchased the light for my garage. I had two initially but after a year one blew out so now it’s brighter than before and so much better then the standard 60 watt bulbs. I’m thinking about getting one or two for my closet. Sometimes you can’t tell the difference between the blue and black suits with current standard bulbs

Not the best value
Would Not RecommendI’ve discovered higher quality 12,000 luman 4 bladed lights on sale at Northern Tools. They were actually $10 cheaper than the ones a Lowes.

Don't be fooled like me
Would Not RecommendI at different times purchased 3 or 4 of these thinking with a long time name like be and Howell it would be a good investment for some much needed light. They are awesome at first but soon each "wing" eventually goes out. I can only assume bad materials, workmanship, and quality control. Everything I've read indicates more trouble than it's worth to attempt reimbursement or replacement. EVERY one I purchased went bad.
Don't waste your time or $
Would Not RecommendI've bought 3 of these garage lights because I was under the impression that they were built with quality. Boy was I wrong. I'm not sure what's breaking down but little by little over about 3 weeks time, each wing went out. I didn't keep my receipts cuz i trusted the Bell and Howell name. After 3 failed attempts I can honestly say they are not worth a plug nickel.

Fantastic light!
Would RecommendThis light is amazing! I put it in my attic, where I used to have one lone light bulb, and it lit up the entire floor.

DONT BUY THIS JUNK
Would Not RecommendWent out one day, screwed in a light bulb and it worked. Took the thing apart, nothing obvious and nothing burnt. Power getting to the board. It just failed and is worthless.
poorly made
Would Not RecommendThey work great for a few months, and then just out of the blue they just fail. Emson, who is the distributor of these lights will exchange these but you have to pay for return shipping, which means you have to pay more in exchange to get a working light. Don't recommend but if you do make sure you use "my Lowes" to save it to your account to help facilitate a return if necessary.
