Review: Life Saver - Super IDEA We use daily! As you age your strength lessens!
Review: Where has this been all my life? - This can converter is amazing. Easy to work with, although some of the metal edges are very sharp. You removed the existing light cover and lightbulb, screw in the pigtail, and attach this device into the can. I was able to hang a pendant light in place of an existing can light now without having to do any ceiling work or electrical work! This is a real winner!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but required some extra work
*by G***Y on August 15, 2024*

This converter kit works as advertised in that it attaches to an existing recessed light fixture and allows you to hang a heavy light or fan. In my case, it was a chandelier in the bathroom which was right over the tub. The can converter works well but I did not have three screw holes in the existing can but four. So that means only one screw hole lined up with the converter. The 'simple' solution in the instructions are to use the included self tapping screws and just put them into the sheet metal. If you've ever done that before you know it's not that easy, especially at an angle, while balancing on a ladder, trying to keep the screw from sliding around. So I had to pre-drill some holes for that which was the extra work. Not sure how to avoid that with the converter kit, just letting you know this did not install in "minutes" as advertised ... more like an hour or so. It's still a great product as I did not have access to the attic at this spot so this was my only option.
