Tools and Hardware Reviews of Archipelago Lighting 20020 120-Volt 48-Inch Shop Light with 5-Inch White Reflector ItemCustomer Review: Cheaply made and broke during shipping Summary: 1 Stars
We ordered 4 shop light fixtures. 3 did not work. Two were broken in the mail and the third did not work and the connections were very flimsy. I would not recommend this product at all.
Customer Review: Four-star light, 1-star packaging Summary: 3 Stars
These are nice, well built lights at a reasonable price. The problem is in the packaging. They are shipped in a very thin cardboard box. They will probably get damaged, at least a little bit, on their way to you. So far I've bought three. The first was mangled, the second dented only slightly, and the third arrived in perfect condition. Obviously I think the quality, once I receive a light that is usable, is worth the headache of dealing with returns/exchanges until then. You'll have to decide if that's true for you as well.
Customer Review: How about some styrofoam? Summary: 3 Stars
It's a good cheap shop light. It does what it's supposed to do just fine. However....it was damaged when I received it. I was able to bend the sheet metal back into place and it works fine but looks wobbly. The light is packaged in a box, no packing material like styrofoam. Because of the size and long shape of the box it's going to get beat to hell in shipping.
Once you get the metal bent back into place the lights are going to be a little tight when you insert them. Mine also had a little of the plastic housing cracked but it works so I'm not sending it back. -2 stars for the OEM's crappy packaging otherwise a 5.
Customer Review: Not exactly as advertized. Summary: 4 Stars
The product description from the manufacturer doesn't match what's shipped. The shop light I received was the model SL-2 from Archipelago Lighting. There is no pull chain switch. You will need to plug the 5' power cord into a switched outlet -- or plug it in and unplug it when you're finished. It comes with a chain hanger assembly and instructions for hanging it from the ceiling. Fluorescent lamps are not included.
I gave it four stars because it wasn't what they said it was. In the end, it turned out to be exactly what I needed, so I'm not the least bit unhappy.
Customer Review: Nothing about this was real. Summary: 1 Stars
well it does not have a pull chain, if its under the plastic, then they should have sent a screw driver with it. The cord i have is only 3 foot long, it is only rated for 118V with a total of 75 watts. I had this thing plugged in for 30 seconds before it started getting hot, so hot I burnt my fingers taking the bulb out. Mind you I did not burn my fingers on the bulb itself, but the ballast. right away the lights were flickering. The way it was shipped it came all bent up. this light is far from quality.
