Easy Install; Looks Great; A bit Dim,
This is a great looking light -far better than the plastic lights on the market and I like the rectangle design better than the circular ones.
The installation instructions were well written with 4 sets of instructions depending on your scenario (new construction/replacing an existing fan etc.) I was replacing an existing fan.
You will need Three-conductor NM cable running to a double switch to utilize the full functionality of this fan (contains both red and black “hot” wires) so that you can power on the nightlight (1) Then the fan/main light (2) via a double light switch. If you have a standard 3 wire cable (one black hot), you can just skip the nightlight and have your fan and light run on the single switch.
I have two switches wired, but had no use for the nightlight-a small std nightlight sized bulb required. I prefer to have the fan run separately from the main light, because I like to leave the fan on when I’m out of the room sometimes to keep air moving etc. So, You can just route the hot red to either the fan or the light, and the hot black to the other and leave the nightlight unwired, or just couple it with one or the other, but leave its bulb out. Both setups get routed to the same white (return). The directions assume you want the fan and main light on together and the color coding of the wires can make it tricky if you stray from that plan-especially working in a tight space reaching up to the ceiling. I installed alone, and it’s a bit of a juggling act trying to keep the unit up while threading wire caps-so I recommend a buddy to help hold the case.
I was able to install two standard CFL bulbs (energy efficient curly ones). I recommend those instead of the smaller A15 incandescents. The cover is a thick opaque glass, and it doesn’t allow a lot of light through. I have CFL’s, so that doesn’t help either, but I must agree it is a bit dim. I have another light in the room, so not an issue for me.
The glass cover has two metal rods attached in parallel and they fit into a harness that requires a push up, then over; then it locks down (with gravity into a groove). It can come loose, but it would take a forceful “up and over” push to accidentally knock it down, and it can be installed incorrectly increasing this risk. I would recommend not using this fixture if you have a lot of activity (horseplay/teenage boys?) or a low ceiling. My bathroom ceiling has a slope to it; I was fortunate to inadvertently install it in the direction where the slope benefits the locking mechanism, but if I had reversed the middle platform mounting, I would have a high risk of the cover slipping as described in another post.
Overall it’s a nice attractive light; The fan is nice, powerful and quiet; light is a bit dim due to cover thickness and there is a chance of the cover coming off if installed incorrectly, on a slope or if pushed abruptly.

|beautiful but flawed,
Pro’s:
(1) Very well written installation guide, with excellent drawings to guide the process.
(2) Good looking fixture — not your typical bathroom fan. Better looking then anything available at Home Depot.
(3) Includes a night light!
Con’s:
(1) Uses 2 smaller A15 bulbs instead of typical A19 household bulbs. Necessitated a trip to Home Depot to pick up these specialty bulbs.
(2) Night Light doesn’t seem to work. Tried more then one bulb. Could be a wiring issue but, since the fan and main a15 bulbs work I don’t think it is a problem with the way I wired it. Also, the night lite does not include a sensor so once it does work, I assume it will always be on. This was one of the reasons I bought this fixture — so having the night light not working is a bummer.
(3) My biggest disappointment is how little light the fixture puts out. With two 60 watt bulbs I would expect some decent light — yet the room is still quite dark with only this light on. I do have another light in the bathroom so I plan to use this fixture primarily as a night light and fan unit.
Great on looks but short on delivering lighting.

|Looks and works good, but dim light,
This light works good, I really like the looks, but the light output in very dim…could be due to frosted glass I am guess….Works good in my guest bath as it is small…The dim light is made up by my vanity mirror lights. Would not recommend as a primary light, works best as a night light, would work good for a soft light for maybe a tub soak or such as long as others light were around to brighten the room when needed, and for looks and the fan.
In Summary:
Pros:
Looks good
Good fan
Good soft light
Good night light
Cons:
Way to dim for primary lighting
