The Can Converter R4 Recessed Can Light Conversion Kit - Home Improvement for 4" Cans, Hardware Converter for Flush Mount Light, Hanging Pendant, & Light Fixture, up to 50 lb Capacity, UL Certified

This is a great product if you want to remove a can light and install another form of lighting. We had a can light over a bathroom vanity and wanted to replace it with a pendant. Worked perfectly and was easy to do and cost effective.

I had bought the cheaper can conversion kit made by Westinghouse and it was garbage. I was about to give up converting these two entry can lights over to flush mount chandeliers but I thought I would give this can converter kit a shot. This kit is what you want folks, I had these up in no time at all. The self drilling screws, just take your time and don’t apply a ton of pressure and let your drill do the work.

You have to be really handy with tools as well as have a battery operated impact drill. Have a second set of hands for help as well. In a difficult scale of 1-5 I would give it a 4. Be aware that you will also need to drill holes or have a better type of self tap screws on hand as the ones provided just won’t cut it. I will give it that once assembled the change makes a big difference.

The instructions and videos make it look simple. It's not. Problems: 1. The "bracket shoes" that are supposed to tighten the device into the can are impossible to budge, and the wrench that's supplied to do this isn't deep enough, so it's useless. 2. The "self-tapping" screws meant to hold the device into the can are not self-tapping at all. I had to drill a hole for them. 3. These screws need to be tightened with a 90º screw driver/drill adapter. 4. The grounding screw gets in the way of the mounting bar that's part of the fixture being installed. I used this to install a track light, in case that matters. If there's a better-designed device for turning a can light into a standard electrical box, I'd love to see it.

This thing worked great. We had a can light in our closet that limited the brightness. We switched it to a track light using this. Took my husband all of five minutes to install.

There is a step to use a wrench to adjust the width of the bracket. This step is not possible as the bolt/nut holding them together was welded, so using a wrench you have to find yourself, does not work. I'd look at an alternative if I were you.

So easy to use. Also 4” which is hard to find

The bracket was not adjustable - the adjusting screws were soldered to the metal bracket making it impossible to turn to adjust the size.

We bought the Woodbridge Lighting Can converter to change out two pot lights in our kitchen to pendants. First we ordered the wrong size, and found Amazon to be as efficient with the refund process as they were with the shipping process. We could have sourced them locally but the ones available locally were rated for 5 pounds, these are rated for 50 pounds. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and the parts were sturdy. The process was very simple and the pendants look great!

Successfully converted pot lights into fans.

worked wonderfully, installed in minutes,very pleased
