Design House 517268 Fluorescent 4-Light Linear Cloud Ceiling Mount, 6-Inch by 51-Inch, White Acrylic Lens Review

Ten years ago if I bought something this cheaply made I'd give it one star, but I guess we're all getting used to the manufacturing paradigm that you want to make something as cheaply as possible but still work.

On the down side - sheet metal work is poor. Holder for the 'cloud' is a strap bent around outside of the box - not straight or flat - consequently I was not able to mount it so box flush against ceiling, and it shows. (OK - probably could if I took the fixture down, drilled 2 screens into the box near the end that shows, 2 into ceiling and sunk plaster anchors into the ceiling, pulling it very tight against ceiling on the end.) The holders for the sockets clip loosely into sheet metal straps - you have to wiggle them to get bulbs in - not sure it's safe to change bulbs with power on. Instructions include instructions for replacing the ballasts - either they are being thoughtful or do not expect them to last. Instructions warn you that 'cloud' breaks easily. I believe it - that was true of the fixture this replaced and it was the reason I replaced it.

On the plus side - the T8 bulbs light instantly and that's nice. Very bright. Very nice lighting and looks good - if you don't look too close and notice the fixture is pushed out 1/8" from the ceiling on the one corner. (I doubt too many people would look close.)
