Pros & Cons
Pros
Using it to illuminate a 24 x 30 painting. They illuminate the paintings perfectly. It's like having our artwork lit by a gallery. They're halogen lights which is what pretty every art gallery uses.
Super simple fixture, super simple installation. Add a slim cable quick disconnect near the light. A 50 watt bulb was included. Works perfect with dimmer.
Works really well, but was quite a chore putting it together. Replacement for an older model. Update to comment.
Cons
Low volt dimmer is not cheap and is another issue you don't want to deal with. The transformer powering the light will not work for mr16 led's as it causes light flickering. Super flimsy and inexpensive looking.
Highlights
Quality
Assembly instructions were excellent and therefore easy to install
Clean bright and very effective for picture lighting
However the light stopped working 8 months after purchase
Currently it only comes with a simple rotary onoff switch that you screw into the power cable where ever you would like it
Price
Best we could expect without paying double
I saw an ac plug extension with a switch on it at a hardware store but did not want to spend the money
Wish they had charged a few dollars more and send it more in tact
Shipping
I contacted the seller and they promptly sent me a new light without having to jump through hoops
Packaging/appearance
Amazon warehouse deal was in perfect condition with no parts missing
Looked through the box carefully and it was missing
This came with a box to hardwire into the current electrical system
Without the silver bulb cap it looks much better
Competitiveness
Also we changed out the light bulb to a warm white led from lowes because i was afraid the halogen would get too hot and it works great
After buying and returning 3 different picture lights i found this option which was the least expensive and best option

The instructions suggest a 50 watt halogen bulb but found it to be too bright for my art

I decided to switch it to a 35 watt led halogen still too bright
