Love these panels, but maybe expect to get one year out of them. They were $30 each when I bought them. I have been using two in my office for 13 months until yesterday one of the panels died. The panels seem to have four banks of LEDs as two of the four rectangular portions died first and then all of them. I bought the 4-pack so that I had spares. The newly installed third panel looks great and I can't tell the difference between this newly installed one and the other 13 month old one. Also, after 13 months I can't see any yellowing like I did with the Costco ones (Arika?), but they lasted about 4 years before the yellowing got me to replace them. The old ones would be fine in the garage.

Unpacked product, has some good call outs from potential damage done. They provided two pretty legit holders to mitigate damage. It is steel so if it’s dropped on its side in theory shouldn’t be an issue. That said, minor damage is present, I believe it happened at the point of manufacture since both of them have similar beds in the same spot as seen in picture. Now, it’s not that big of a deal as the damage won’t be noticed once installed on the ceiling. It’s easily able to be on a side not visible as well as the location is on the ceiling. So NBD

I bought this panel to install under the overhead cabinets I bought and installed. The cabinets are up high enough (about 6'-6" off the floor) that the panel fits nicely under the 13" deep cabinets. I will soon install a desk under the area to make it a bench for my electronics work.I would have preferred that the panel offer a 5-color option. I know there are some out there, but a trend I see in these color-controllable LED lights these days is that they omit 3500K. I find this odd because when the wife gets involved in choosing the color of the lights, 3500K is a good compromise between 3000K (women) and 4000K (men). But just about all of the vendors blow through 3500K. It's either 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K. I don't get it, but I needed something under there. These Hykolity panels seemed like a good value for the money.Some people reading this review may be familiar with similar panels that Costco was selling a while back with the "Artika" brand. There are quite a few reviews of them on YouTube. The common complaint about them was that the lamp is so long, that the hanger bracket lets the ends of the panel float, causing the panel to sag a bit at the ends. Looking at the Hykolity panel, it appears to be identical to the Artika except that the hanger bracket is wider than the Artika bracket. Other than that, the panels themselves look to be identical.And incidentally, both the Artika and this Hykolity panel LED light are NOT "flush mount." Due to the nature of the mounting scheme, there will always be a gap between the surface you are mounting to and the top of the panel light, about 3/16". If this bothers you, I guess you could nail some trim around the perimeter of the light, although I suspect that the gap provides some degree of air flow to the top side of the light to help cool the panel down from its 50W power dissipation.When I got everything wired up, including a Maxxima slide dimmer (model MEW-DM600A), I found that the dimming control was awful. Flicker, I could tap the slider and the lights badly flickered, unable to set a minimum dim level to the 5% level that Hykolity said can be reached (it was more like 75% minimum brightness with the Maxxima dimmer), and so on. In short, something was not right between the panel and this dimmer. Which is at fault? I have a couple of old dimmers lying around, so I unsnapped my Wago connectors to remove the Maxxima dimmer and patched in a Cloudy Bay dimmer (model CBLD001WH). Same result: the panel and dimmer did not like each other.I then got out my last junk box dimmer, an old Leviton SureSlide (Model 6672-1LW) and patched it in. This time, it works. No more flicker or jumping around. Success! The only drawback to the Leviton SureSlide dimmer is that there is no "trim" control for the minimum light. The minimum setting does NOT go to zero as Leviton says it will. However, it goes low enough that I am quite happy with it. If I want the light to go completely off, isn't that what the switch is for?The panel puts out a lot of light over my desk area, and I can smoothly control the level with the Leviton dimmer. The 3 colors choices demonstrate to my eye why 5000K is a better color choice if you are concerned about color in your environment. Both the 3000K and 4000K make my light gray walls look yellow and brown, respectively, while the 5000K setting shows the walls to be gray.

The packaging is heavy duty with no chance of damage to the product during shipping.This is a really nice item. The mounting instructions are easy to understand and the mounting hardware complete and excellent quality.

These were better than my expectations... absolutely a great buy!!!

Installed the light and had it for less than a year before the LED went out. Great way to waste $200. Regular switch, not a dimmer and regular power source that has had a light for 100 years before this was installed so no reason for this except that the product quality is poor. Haven't found a way to contact anyone to see if they would assist so leaving this for now. Don't waste your money
