Maxim 1005BK Westlake 21 Inch Dimmable and LED Bulb Compatible 1 Light Post/Pole Mount I Cast Aluminum with Black Finish I Modern Contemporary Light Fixture I

These lights are the poorest quality lights that I could have purchased . I ordered two of these lights and when I opened the boxes both lights had fallened apart. The lens had come out of the frames and I spent about an hour putting the lens back in the frames. After I put them back together I had to handle them with kid gloves . No quality or craftsmanship at all went into manufacturing these lights . These light definitely were not made in the United States !! From here out I will read reviews before purchasing anything from Amazon !!!! Also under description of lights they say you can use up to 100 watt bulbs, on the light fixture it says max wattage 60 Watts .

Larger glass panes allow for taller bulbs to be installed as opposed to other post lights that block light from top of bulbs. Very classy and elegant looking in yard. I use a 150 LED that uses 22 watts of power and it works fine. The post light base also allowed me to screw in a dusk to dawn sensor and that has worked fine.

The fixture itself looks nice, is of good size at the end of the post. But the socket for the lightbulb is poorly made, thin metal that broke, and never made good contact. You'll need a trip to the hardware store to get one that works.

Upon receipt and unboxing, several parts fell out of the bag that wrapped the light assembly. At first I thought they were extra parts then realized they were from the light. I double checked all of the fasteners and found that most were loose and could not be tightened due to very loose tolerances and or quality control. The "posts" that are the sides id the glass windows are very thin, rolled sheet metal to form a tube to which the fasteners top and bottom screw into. I had to carefully pinch those tubes closed to form a cylinder into which the fasteners could develop some torque/ tension. This was both top and bottom. Once that was completed only then was I able to install the light onto a standard 3" post. Installed it looks good and is fairly solid. Now time will tell how it withstands the weather.

The lamp arrived in a package that did not show signs of damage. When I opened the package it became clear that the lamp had been dropped/damaged and re-packaged to appear like a good product. All the parts were in the box, but the metal arms connecting the top to the bottom were misshapen. It was necessary for me to bend the ends to allow the connective screws to provide support. I added a dollop of urethane caulk to secure the screws/bolts and put the unit together. No.ne of the beveled glass were damaged, but they were loose in the packageI considered returning the product but figured the half hour of effort was worth getting the project done.

This is a really nice looking post light. Installing this on top of a 3" diameter post took all of 5 minutes. Hook up 2 wires and the ground and then tighten 3 screws. The post I got from Amazon comes with a light sensor so the light comes on at night. Picture shows an incandescent bulb but I found a really nice LED one instead.One thing that surprised me was that the item came without wire nuts

I'm giving it 4 stars rather than 5 because the product name claims 100W, but the specs say 60W (it's 60). Practically speaking, I don't care because I'm using LEDs. But it is misleading. Otherwise, this is very good value for the money. It is better that similar priced items that I saw at the big box stores. It's not a piece of plastic, and the aesthetics are better. Quick shipping, no damage, easy installation. It has aluminum wires, but all fixtures in this price range do.

These are great lights that I place at the end of my drive. I have ordered these more than once since the snow plow that comes down our road doesn't have any sense when plowing snow and totally demolishes these off the poles! These are affordable and match our other lights. Love the burnished color on them! Very bright as well when lit! LOVE!
