I am thoroughly pleased with this set of remodel LED cans. I installed 5 in my kitchen (of which I'll take a picture after I patch up some holes where I removed some other lighting) and it took me about an hour and a half with cleanup.The lights I purchased to go in these cans are - also super pleased with those - will be writing a review after I'm done with this one.Another tool I highly recommend in order to do the job easily, with little hassle is A little background..- I am a DIY guy that likes to do home projects here and there - not a professional electrician or anything like that- The install was in a kitchen where I had access above via an attic- I used the stud finder mentioned above to locate the studs in the ceiling and placed my lights accordinglyThe LED cans - some notes that would have helped me a bit:- The cutouts are about 4 1/8" round. A simple drywall saw like this one is all you need. Each can had a round template you could use to draw your circle. If you have a hole saw that'd be even quicker, and depending on how many you're installing, I'd probably spring for this hole saw seeing as how it's inexpensive: - the cheapest one I could find at a local hardware store was $30 and I wasn't willing to spend that nor did I want to wait so I used the drywall saw and it worked just fine. Didn't take more than a couple minutes per hole to trace the outline and cut out the drywall.- The cans are water proof because they have some foam stickers on all the clips and inside the electrical housing. Peel the sticker backing off BEFORE you put these things in the ceiling! They're not so sticky that they'll immediately stick to the housing and it's MUCH easier to remove the backing when you're not reaching over your head to do so! Once you get the can up in the ceiling, you can easily slide the clips into place, then take a flat-head screwdriver and press the clips up further until they stop. Once that's done, use the foam tape to cover all the holes around the clips.- The knockouts on the cans - knowing that you'll likely be daisy-chaining all the lights together that you install, it would be well worth it to remove both knockouts on all the cans that are not the start or the end cans BEFORE you put them in the ceiling - again, it's just easier to do it while you have good access to them. Then, for the end cans, remove at least one knockout on each of those. Additionally, I recommend making a trip to your local hardware store and picking up enough of these to fill all those knockouts to keep from cutting your wire: - I couldn't find a good pack of them on Amazon and you can get a pack of 5 or 6 for pretty cheap at your hardware store so that may be your best bet. Go ahead and install those BEFORE you put the can in the ceiling!- The quick connectors inside the cans - I feel like they are selling themselves short by not having a good picture of the quick connect and how they work in their description - these things were fantastic. Inside the electrical box there are three wires with quick connects - a ground, hot, and neutral. All you need to do is match up those wires with your standard 14 / 2 cable, strip off about 3/4" from the cable and push it into a hole in the same quick connect - that's it! It was so easy and beautiful not having to wing nut all the wires. Loved this feature!One thing I really loved about these cans was the fact that the metal was flexible - the Romex clamps I mentioned for filling in the knockout - those have to be tightened down and likely you'll be inbetween studs in the ceiling so you can't really get a drill inbetween them. But, you can bend the metal slightly that's attached to the can so you can bring the screws down to the drill / screwdriver. Fantastic!Hopefully these tips will come in handy - these things were simple to install (directions left a bit to be desired) and this was my first time doing any recessed lighting. I would (will) buy these again - excellent quality at a good price.About the only negative thing I have to say about them is I wish the instructions were a little better for those of us doing it the first go-around.

Easy install, good quality, so much better and less expensive than the halos from HD store.I tried halos from the local HD store, bought them at $20 ea or $100 for a box of 6. Their cans are aluminum, which meant they were easily bent and torn on install. The mounting clips were very hard to lock in place, had to use a hammer. The junction box was larger, meaning more room for wires. The slide-in connectors were difficult to slide the wires in, but had extra holes for 3 wires if you need them.These Sunco lights were half the price for a box of six. Metal cans mean no bending or tearing. The mounting clips were easy to push in place. The junction box was smaller, but manageable. Was easily able to slide wires in, though they held firm. There's only holes for two wires, but that's all I need. I'll buy these again over the halos any day.I'm not an electrician, just your average DYI homeowner. I installed these in my living room with lights from Hyperikon.

I purchased 6 of these for lighting in a screen porch being converted to a sunroom. They were perfect for this application, closely fitting the 4 1/4" holes and tightly locking in place using the 4 clips in each can. The ceiling is 3/4" tongue and groove pine instead of sheetrock, and the clips handled this additional thickness with no issues. The self-adhesive seal attached to each clip was a little cumbersome during installation, so I removed them and cut the seal strip that comes with the can (which was not needed due to the tight fit in the hole) into small pieces to seal around each clip once locked in place. I found the overall quality to be very good, and wiring was a breeze using the provided quick connectors. I would not hesitate to purchase these again for any remodeling project. Very happy with the results!

Easy install, sturdy, very impressed. Rather they didn’t put the junk wire connectors on, they are know to have issues, just cut them off, stripped wire back and used better wire nuts.
