I have installed 3 of these lights in my shop and I am going to put in 3 more. As far as I'm concerned the old 4' glass tubes have gone the way of the dinosaur.

We replaced recessed kitchen strip flourescent lights with these LED shoplights. There is so much light it is like a brand new kitchen! We actually love to go in there now.

I was considering adding a fluorescent light fixture to my shop so I could have better lighting. I saw this at Sam's Club and thought I would give it a try. It doesn't need to be hard-wired. It hangs from the supplied hooks and has a power cord with a pull chain. The light is instantly bright, which is a plus. I was up and running in 5 minutes. I haven't noticed any buzzing sound as another reviewer mentioned. I am very pleased so far. It's also made in the USA, which is a bonus. The lights don't give off any heat, which is also good.

The washer and dryer in my folks house is located in the basement like many are in northern states (MN), and the lighting over the two appliances consisted of a single 200 watt incandescent bulb. I didn't even know they made bulbs of that type in that wattage! Well that bulb produced a blinding light when you saw it, but not very good light for your work space. So I bought one of these led lights and put it up today. Wow, what a difference. The lighting is so much brighter, covering a larger area near the washer and dryer, and colors of the clothes appear much more accurately than with the old 200 watt fire hazard. So they now have better lighting, for about 1/5 the electricity. Mom is thrilled.

Bought four led shop lights at Sams in October to replace the CFL shop lights in my unheated garage. The main reason to purchase the led was for cold weather lighting since fluorescent take very long to brighten or don't turn-on at all in extreme weather. The new leds worked fine until temperature started to get below freezing in November. One of the fixtures started blinking for a minute or so. By December that fixture was blinking for more two minutes plus. A second fixture started blinking for about 15 seconds. Thought I would return these two to Sams for a replacement but decided to wait for the challenge of January/February. Now it is February in NH and last night temperature went negative (-10F). This mornings temperature outside is 7F. The garage maybe a little colder than the outside temp due to last night. Decided to record the timing of the lights turning on steady. One fixture came on and three fixtures blinking. After 5 minutes one of the blinking fixtures came on. After 10 minutes the second blinking one came on. 30 minutes later the last blinking unit was still blinking. This is when I ended the observation. So I have 1 out of 4 working like it should. Dilemma.. return all or try to replace the three.

Wanting to replace my old shop lights because the old "tube bulbs" were always burning out, or flickering and in general, just not a very pleasant working atmosphere.....I was on the "lookout" for these new "LED shop lights but on initial investigation, found them to be to expensive, and so....just put the project on hold....Then online one morning I checked and found them at Sam's club and, at a more than reasonable price....I ordered ( 2), and in a week they were delivered....Now...the "acid test" I was honestly surprised to see how well constructed they were. light in weight, and in 5 minutes were ready to hang.....When plugged in, the illumination was twice or even more than one my old shop lights and 100% better than I expected. I went to Sams in Maine, and purchased 8 more and now my entire shop area...looks fantastic and without a single corner that is not bathed in bright light !!!!! Now on top of all that...they will last more than 5,000 hours left on continually 24/7.....Mine will be on only hours a day so the cost ( now pennies a day for all of them ) will be quite noticeable......Thumbs up on this item !!! More than worth it !!!!!!! You won't be disappointed !

What can I say about these lights. Very good quality, 4500 lumens of white light. I'm very impressed. I installed 6 of these lights in my new 24 X 32 shop/garage. It quite bright in there. I installed 2 more hanging just over my tool box and work bench.

If you're sensitive to noises like I am, this light has some horrible buzzing sounds coming from it that made me feel like this light was stealing my soul. Also has some 60hz flicker. I will test for one week to see if the problem goes away with the buzzing as could be a burn in issue, but would not recommend for a workshop if you're sensitive to the flickering.

What a bargain. After searching on the internet for led shop lights a friend suggested Sam's Club. I got prices well over $150 all over the internet but Sams club had the perfect light for less than $40. No reason to stray, Sam's club comes through again!

I like how lightweight these are and the brightness is more than adequate. Hangs up exactly like the old style T-12 fluorescent shop lights. One small problem and you must be conscious of this flaw. DO NOT HANG THESE LIGHTS PLUGGED IN. I was hanging two lights and one for no particular reason was plugged in and switched on; it shouldn't have been a big deal. Well BAM I was shocked and tripped the breaker. Apparently the provided S hook will make contact with an exposed live conductor in the housing when you try to loop the hook through the hole provided. They should have provided a loop for the hook that will not go near anything that is live. This is a major flaw. I would have given it a 5 star, because outside the near death experience, this shop light works great and a good value.
