Boat Reading Light

Our sailboat had some plain, old white plastic lights and we wanted to dress the old girl up, so ordered seven of these lights to replace the original ones The new lights really look great and add a touch of class to our boat's interior. We love the blue nightlight feature, and the lights are dimmable. They are not super bright, but certainly good enough for area use. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

This fixture is smaller that it appeared in the picture, but that worked out just fine. Check the dimensions if you are concerned. The light is fully adjustable so it can be pointed to just one location. I mounted one on each side of the cabinet over the bed. This allows each person to direct the light onto the book they are reading without bothering the sleeping person on the other side of the bed.The light is a pleasant reddish color like and incandescent bulb and not harsh white like many LEB bulbs.It has one unexpected feature. The switch is a small lighted push button at the bottom of the fixture. This makes a nice night light, but can be turned off. One press turns on the night light. The next press turns on the main light while the third press turns it all off.The only problem I had was with the unit that came apart in shipment. The globe is held onto the base figure with a shiny metal ring. One of mine came apart in shipment. I had to disassemble to the other unit I ordered to discover that the metal ring can be installed in two directions. One works and the other does not. I just fails off easily. After I turned the ring the correct way and reassembled, it has worked fine for over 1000 miles of travel.Overall this is was an excellent addition to my motorhome.

On the whole, I love this little lamp: it is very well-made, was packaged very nicely, and is perfect for the corner where I put it, and it looks very nice and warm.What I wasn’t too happy about: Installing it wasn’t the easiest (my husband did it), and the fact that if the bulb burns out, I will have to replace the whole lamp... hopefully it will last many many years. These two reasons were why I didn’t give it 5 stars.

Recently bought an older boat and needed to replace the original plastic lights. These lights were easy to install and have quality construction. I really like the night light feature and the dimming feature.

The round base is slightly smaller then the OEM plastic lights but I made work. Very bright, more like a spot light

Did not ever turn on. I missed the return window but did not install in time and both did not work. I would like an exchange at least.

I love these lights. They look great and function great. The light is bright and very easy to read by it. A tap of the finger turns lights on and off. There is a usb plug in to charge your phone, etc. They have a blue night light if you want one. It can be off too. NOTICE...the size of light...it's small and if you want a large fixture this light is not for you.

I liked the easy installation

Easy to install and user friendly. Very cute in my van conversion.

All the reviews were true! These lights add such a beautiful glow to our DIY conversion van! I couldn't be happier with this purchase, and they took my husband about 30 minutes to install all said and done. So happy with them!

I fitted this to my boat and I absolutely love it. Very classy and provides a nice reading light, or ambient light facing the ceiling.

I bought 3 of these timber look variants. The quality is great. The shade is thick glass which lets some light through to highlight the timber grain effect. It's quite a warm white (I'd guess about 4000k). You can dim it, but not super dim. It's still ok for reading at the lowest setting. The bulbs don't look easily replaceable, so you can't change to a brighter or different colour white. They're not replaceable G4 bulbs like you get in some lights. That suits the lights, as if they were brighter you'd lose the effect of the timber grain look shade.The spread of beam is quite narrow, so more a task or spot light than general room light. I do wish there was a way to change the beam spread and at this price point I would think some way to do that by turning the glass shade should be possible.They're nicely packaged (to the point you think 'how much is this fancy box costing me?'), but one of the 3 was missing the allen key tool and mounting screws.

So nice! I was reluctant to spend this much on fixtures considering there are so many cheaper options. Boy I'm I glad I got these. They're beautiful! My RV store didn't offer anything this nice at this price. If you're on the fence, get them. You won't regret it.
