Review on πŸ”† ASOKO Dimmable LED Under Cabinet Lights Warm White 3000K: Linkable LED Cabinet Lighting Plug in for Kitchen Counter, Shelf, Bookcase, Showcase - Set of 3 by Steve Rohde

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The light is good and bright but the SWITCHES are BAD.

These lights are really good at illuminating worktops (mounted on the underside of cabinets). At the same time, the switch that turns them on/off and dims them is very poorly made. My first lights were installed and the switch broke the first night they were used. It turned on by itself because the "off" part of the switch failed. Well, I thought, "sometimes things don't work." I contacted the company and told them about the broken switch and that I had to toggle the light on and off to use it and I had obviously lost the dimmability. I asked if they could send me a new switch. The company was very cooperative. They apologized and sent me a brand new set of lamps (even though I had only asked for a different switch). Excellent! Now I have my new switch and it seemed to work fine. then the new switch failed after only 2 weeks. It is clear that the switches are worthless. I like the lights (they actually get a bit warm rather than hot when running at full power, but still cooler than fluorescent lights). However, I have to enable/disable them every time I use them. Another note: if you're using screws to install them, pre-drill them first and use some sort of spacer (like a tiny nut/washer) or the screw will go through the bottom of the case.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
