I have a 1970s vintage lake house to remodel. Lots of cheezy light fixtures - globes, spots, tracks - so I needed a quick fixture replacement AND something to allow me to go LED in the process. These Sunco 4" LED Can Housings turned out to be PERFECT for my job. I selected the 4" size since most (if not all) of my ceiling fixture J-boxes are in 4" holes. Once I got the fixture down and the J-box out of the way (which is the only "hard" part, and that's not so bad...) it was just a matter of reaming out my ceiling hole just a bit. I pulled apart one of the Sunco housing assemblies so I could use just the can part for the hole fit. Once the hole is ready to go, just choose a knock-out position, insert a suitable wire clamp, feed in the wires, and push connect into those cool little WAGO-type wire nuts they provided. Super easy! I found it easier to leave the little can clips out while I pushed everything up into place. Make sure you get some clearance if you're up into some insulation. The clips are tight already and will get hard to snap if you get something under them. I selected the Sunco 4" LED lights to go with these housings. They "plug n play" into the can and push right into place. Flip on the AC and admire your work! The pic shows one very sketchy spotlight neatly replaced in about 30 minutes. And I'm kinda old and slow! So there ya have it! I'm buying more! You should check them out too!

I installed 28 of these cans. They are easy to install and fit snugly into the holes cut with a 4†Lenox hole saw (be sure to remove the spring clips before inserting the can into the 4†hole and then re-attach and push them to secure the can). They cans have good build quality and feel sturdy. I like that there are 7 knock outs and push-in wire connectors that make wiring easy and fast. I also like the cans are insulator contact safe and airtight. In addition, customer service is great; it solved my concerns easily and fast. The price is good too.

I installed nine of these cans in our kitchen for a remodel we are undergoing. I used a 4 1/4 inch hole saw from Harbor Frieght to cut the holes in 5/8 inch sheet rock ceiling. You can cut the holes by hand using the template that comes with the can. I did cut two holes by hand and decided to speed things up by using the hole saw, much faster and makes a perfect hole every time. I found out that a 4 1/4 hole size makes installing the clips much easier. I removed the clips, placed the can in the hole and then put the clips back in one at a time. It was easier and faster that way. The quick connects make wiring the cans easier as well. I will buy these cans again. Tape comes with the cans that you use to make them air tight after the clips are in place and wiring us complete.I ordered the 4 inch Sunco LED 4000K lights to go into the can. My wife loves the look and brightness. We already had some six and 4 inch recessed lighting in other rooms that are original to the 1983 house, but these new LED lights are much more attractive and brighter. I'll be changing out the older lights for sure.

Very easy to install, although I would recommend cutting a 4.3 inch hole instead of the 4.5 the instructions say. I found the 4.5 too large and the can had to sit perfect to cover the hole. 4.3 is snug, but I wouldn't go any smaller than that. Seemingly sturdy and well built, and hug the drywall nicely, causing no movement. I deducted 1 star because the way it was packaged, the cans moved around and 3 of my 10 had bent bezels. One of which I didn't catch until it was installed, and it makes it impossible to sit flush on the ceiling. The LED bulbs I used covered the issue and they look fine, but some cardboard inserts in the packaging would go a long way in making them stay put and not move around during shipping.

These were very easy to install. It comes with a template to place on the ceiling to cut around. Before receiving the cans, I purchased a sheet rock cutting tool to cut round holes but would not have needed it- a simple sheet rock saw or serrated knife would have worked fine. You just strip the wires about 1/2 inch and plug them in. I replaced overhead kitchen lighting, four flourecent fixtures (8 tubes), and was planning to use eight 4" fixtures. I found that 4 fixtures was plenty, even dimmed to about 80%. I bought the brightest color sunco lights as recommended for kitchen, but if doing it again would probably buy one shade warmer. The wiring was already there and it took me less than an hour to install all four fixtures. One caveat, make sure you have enough clearance above your ceiling 5.75", the height of the can- and around the hole - 12" in one direction, and about 2 inches all the way around the hole so the the clips can spread out. Since I have a bunch extra, I'm looking for other place in my house to install them.

While I haven't actually installed these yet they seem to be a handy and easy installation process from the directions provided. I ordered these without knowing that I needed to order the additional covers and lamp connectors but that was my mistake for ordering quickly without reviewing everything before placing my order. No big deal, I just ordered the additional items suggested to go with it and I think we're good now. I'm still a bit away from installation but these look like a nice product that you can install and then remove if there is a problem sometime in the future which is a pretty nice feature in comparison to some light fixtures I've seen. Hopefully I'll remember to provide a final review when I've got them installed. So far they seem to be well constructed and will serve the purpose for me. We shall see in the coming weeks as I progress on my room project.
