GetInLight LED Under Cabinet Lighting Installation and Review

GetInLight provided me with five LED under cabinet lighting units to install and review in my kitchen. The lights I installed and reviewed in this video can be found on Amazon:

The GetInLight under cabinet LED lighting system is a quality product that's made well and offers a lot of convenience features that other under cabinet lights don't include. Each unit can be powered either by plug or hard wiring, each unit has a bright or dim setting, a cool, warm and "medium" setting, they can be powered together with simple connecting cables and they can all be controlled with an LED dimmer switch.
The installation of the lights was pretty straight forward: you simply choose where you want to place the lights and use the provided screws to attach them to the bottom of your wood cabinets. There are no installation brackets or rails, so if you're doing anything out of the ordinary or installing lights that are longer than your cabinet units (like I did) then you'll probably need to figure out a way to mount them yourself. For me that simply involved gluing little blocks of wood into position using wood construction glue and then screwing the light fixtures into those blocks of wood. It was an extra step, but wasn't difficult once I had a plan.
I chose to hard wire my lights into an existing power line from my previous old fluorescent kitchen lighting fixtures. You can also simply plug these lights in if you have an outlet available. Each unit can be plugged in separately or you can connect them with GetInLight cables. If you need anything longer than 6" between units you'll need to buy extra extension cables. I did this to run the lighting through my cabinets, over my stove and down to the other side of my cabinets.
Overall impressions: wow! These are some quality, professional lights! Our kitchen coutner looks like a restaurant when we use the medium warm setting and the brighter option. There's no flickering, no blinking, they just blink in with the click of a wall switch.
These are not little puck lights and they aren't motion sensitive (which you really don't want over a kitchen counter) but they are bright and clean and really make your kitchen "pop" with that wow factor. They come in multiple lengths and finishes, so you'll have some options. These are quality home improvements and are probably one of the most affordable ways you can quickly enhance your kitchen.

I was already considering this type & brand of lighting but had never heard of GetInLight so I was glad I came across your installation video. Great narrative. It addressed / answered many of my questions. Whether we would use them frequently or not, I think my wife and I would at least have some fun experimenting with the brightness and color options. And you're right, being able to plug the light in before installation is a feature that will help determine placement. Nice job!

I meant 'narration' but the written narrative was also good.

it seems that the fixture uses no separate bulbs? so when the LED burns out, instead of merely replacing a bulb, then the entire fixture needs to be torn out & a replacement fixture needs to be rewired? problem is compounded if a fixture is a member of a daisy chain. sure, manufacturers claim that LED life span is multiple X 10K hours, but the history of CFL bulbs shows that manufacturer claims are grossly exaggerated.

I agree that having non-replaceable bulbs could be an issue down the line, but after two years I haven't had any issues yes. Everything has wear and everything eventually needs to be replaced. These are relatively easy to replace because they're not hard-wired in, they're just plugged into a daisy chain so they are relatively easy to remove and replace should it come to that.

Thanks for making this video. After watching I bought a set of GetInLights under cabinet lighting to replace my old set that are garbage. I was looking to install COB LED but I couldn't find a UL listed strip that would pair with a UL listed dimmable driver, and I didn't want to take a chance on something that wasn't UL listed. So hopefully these drivers last because this certainly is a more expensive way to go. But it looks like you did a great job. Did you ever connect these to a dimmer switch? If so, how did that turn out? Also, do you find yourself using the different Kelvin levels or mostly sticking with one?

after a lot of research have decided to order these under counter lights. like you say in the video... each light only comes with a short 6in connector cord. I'm going to need longer ones than that... where did you get your's? and what are they called? thanks!

[@patriot0971]

Should have used the existing in wall hard wire that you unnecessarily removed in the last video. 😄

[@HomeImprovementVideos]

There was actually a reason I couldn't... but I honestly don't remember why now... 🙃

So weird that you would want to make the units more visible with wood blocks
