Got these lights to replace some pathway lights around my front sidewalk. Kichler makes good stuff, and these are professional grade lights. Better quality than the ones you buy in a home store. They are pretty ruggedly built, and the paint finish seems like it will be durable. They use an automotive style bulb and they are pretty bright. They come with a large heavy plastic base that you can bury just under the surface. In a couple windstorms, they haven’t started to lean over like some others I’ve had. If you want an unobtrusive fixture to just cast light on a pathway or sidewalk, this is a good choice. Docked one star for two reasons:1. These use an automotive-style bulb that can be hard to find. You need to go to an auto parts store, or just order an extra here on Amazon. Basically, it’s the same bulb that is used in turn signals and marker lights. I guess if you wanted amber or red lights you could swap the clear bulb for colored bulb. Getting LED replacements isn’t easy and they are expensive. I’ve tried a couple and they are not very good. I wish it used a more standard landscape bulb.2. The top cover is hard to remove to change lights. there’s three screws that hold it on and you have lie on the ground to unscrew them The aluminum housing always make the screws bind up over time. I put a little graphite lube on them when I run them in so it deposits inside the threads. Makes it easier to get back out later without gumming things up.Overall, a nice choice when you want to step up a bit from the home store fixtures, but don’t want to pay the lighting store prices.
