Pros & Cons

Pros

Bought 3 of them. Worked as advertised. No complaints.

This product can be installed without the help of an electrician. New light is securely installed. Easy to follow instructions.

Converter makes converting a can light to a pendant or chandelier easy. The ceiling medallion/cover is fine but you might want to spray paint it since it's a shiny plastic white. Took about 45 minutes to convert the recesscan light to pendant light.

It's very sturdy once it's done but * it into the metal is challenging. Drill bit pictured for reference). Holes into it is the hardest part of the process.

Cons

The screws to attach the bracket to the can are too short. The center screw on the internal lock bar cannot be tightened to hold open the crossbar mounting bracket. My cans have the bulb mounting integrated with the can so when the can is gone there i... Read More

Do not even scratch it. Extremely frustrating to use. Surely there’s other products that work better for a lesser price.

Quality

Very easy to install and very sturdy

The bracket designs are well done go ahead and drill a pilot hole for the screws and save yourself some time

These won’t work need self tapping screws to drill and screw into old can

One note and it may just be my recessed lighting assembly but the selftapping screws with the kit did not even make a dent

Price

This saved me lots of since i did not have to hire an electrician to install 4 pendant lights in my kitchen

This converter was an awesome affordable solution to replacing the light

Adapter price is unreasonably high at 40

The kit is worth the price whatever it may be today

Shipping

The install was super fast and easy

I was about to try and improvise and came across this conversion kit just in time ill be returning the items i bought in lowes to improvise

Packaging/appearance

So i decided to find out why which meant i had to take the can out ceiling to get to the junction box where a wire was loose in... Read More

Nice that they come with a big trim ring white

Competitiveness

Went with this name brand version of this adapter vs the orange big box store generic

Picture shows the canlight removed with a pendant light in place of it that i purchased separately at lowe’s

Its a bit pricey but there arent many alternatives out there
