Customer Reviews for Metalux 2-Light 8 ft. White Fluorescent Strip Light with 2 T12 Light Sockets

The instructions we very incomplete and made you believe that there more parts to be in the package. The Associate and I opened the package in the store and the package had never been opened. The instructions made you believe that the package should have 6 screws( 3 on each end to hold the channel 2 on each side and 1 on the bottom to secure the channel) and the ground screw! The channel is not secure without 1 on the bottom........

Would of been better if it came with bulbs, but it did the job.

It didn’t include a covering . I can’t find anything to cover the light

Simple easy DIY replacement. I was looking for the replacement Ballast but was not sure what ballast to buy for my existing strip. I noticed it was cheaper to buy the whole strip which includes a ballast. Install was not hard but time consuming as previous strip screw holes did not match this new item so had to drill new holes. Wire connections were very simple. Black to black, white to white and ground under green screw. Don’t discard the metal pin which holds the ballast cover in place.

This was easy to put together, very well constructed.

would have liked to see more openings in base as well as sturdier coupling screw, but all in all, it's mounted and working which is all i can ask.

I did not know prior to purchasing that the electrical plug had to be hard wired before ot would be able to be used. It is still in my garage and mnot in use!

Ok but a bit pricey for what it is.

First unit failed to light. Plastic quarter turn fasteners for cover were unusable. Overall quality of unit disappointing. Working overhead to install was difficult and frustrating when first unit failed and I had to re install replacement.

Perfect replacement.

Poor product for home use. No cord no lights no hanging chain

This unit replaces one I had installed

Easy to install, if wife helps!

Economic lighting for my garage, great quality product, thank you HD!

great price but not thrilled with the light. I had issues attaching the cover plate. The clamp would not keep the cover inplace. I ended up zip tieing it in place to hold the cover plate firmly to the light fixture.

This is the worst made, cheapest quality fixture I've ever worked on. The metal is so flimsy you can't remove a knock-out without severely bending the fixture, and the things the tube prongs fit into broke after removing and reinstalling one tube. Next time, I will buy a new ballast and fix an old properly made fixture.
