Review on Parmida LED Downlight Replacement Installation Lighting & Ceiling Fans by Kristi Crooks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Terrible gear system

I bought about 30 for my own house. The characteristics of these LEDs are good. Brightness levels are excellent, colors are pleasing, and the profile is smooth. Compatible with silent smart dimmers. I usually buy recessed lights with spring clips that slide into the glass with a light push. They come in a jar with metal blades. Your setup is a PAIN, killing my fingers after about 4 lights. You never know when they will close completely. Not enough gripping profile to flip them easily. Needless to say, after about 4 months these lights started falling off the ceiling. Scared me half to death meditating in the living room. Once they fall out, the blades are left without a spring, further complicating installation. I ended up ordering spring loaded replacement lights from Sunco to replace the rest that had fallen out. Right now about 6 have fallen from the front and about 3 more are barely holding on.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Something's wrong
