I have this, and two other motion detection LED night lights, and three different light-detection LED nightlights. All six are different. This is my middle favorite.

PROS:
- LED (saves, energy, money, and does not get hot)
- Bright enough, but not overly bright
- motion detection (on when you move)*
- not completely utilitarian-looking, somewhat decorative
- not distractingly fancy, while also not being "cheap" looking

CONS:
- takes up the space of two electrical outlets (plug into one, unit needlessly blocks both) {I do have an LED that is designed to cover whole outlet wall plate and looks really cool, this is not that type of design. If they had shortened the skinny part just a little bit, the other outlet would still have been able to be accessible.}
- *turns on when there's no motion (often - it's creepy)
- light a little "cooler" than I prefer (and cooler/bluer than my other LEDs)
- no light "direction", just illuminates surrounding area (not bad, but can be if you want light to only light the floor, etc.)

I do prefer my other motion detection LED night lights, but if they were not available, this would do, as well. The PROs are more important to me than the CONs.

I rely on reviews here at Amazon to help me make informed buying choices. I hope this review has helped you in the same manner. If you voted this as helpful, I Thank You! :)

I saw this first at a friend's place, and liked the looks and the soft glow that it emitted. And I thought that it did a great job on motion detection too.I was looking for a nightlight and I was sold. I bought it on Amazon through Ace Hardware, and the buying process was smooth.

While I was 'looking' for night lights, I saw a lot of 'always on' or dusk-to-dawn lights. Well, with ghost powerloss, always on didn't make sense, and I wasnt really looking for the dusk to dawn (most of which had a harsh incandescent bulb). I turned towards motion sensor (that's when I saw this at a friend's). The motion detection is awesome, it is plugged in at the far end of the room and when I walk into the room, as I near the door, it turns on. This is about 20'. And the angle of detection is good too. My bed is at 45 degrees angle to the location of the light and when I get out of bed, it comes on. My bed is raised, and movement in bed does not trigger it. Unlike some others, I have not had a problem with it not detecting room light. When the room light is on and I walk around, it stays off-until my shadow comes in line, when it turns on. It makes sense to me.

I just have one beef with it. Occasionally at night, when my ceiling fan is on, it would randomly come on and turn off soon. It stopped when I turned off the fan. While it could not have been motion of the fan itself, I think it could be the movement of bed skirt that is in its line of sight. I haven't tested it yet. It is not a design flaw, but I have to do something about it.

I recommend this product. Good buy and I have been a happy customer for quite some time now (cant remember, 6 months around).

I bought this night light at my local orange-lable home improvement store, and have had it plugged in for about 24 hours.

The features that attracted me to this light are the motion activation and the daylight sensor. I am, over all, pretty pleased with the motion activation. But I am disappointed in the "daylight sensor." Most light-sensing night lights I have had in past did not light up when the overhead light was turned on. This one does light up with the overhead light on. I'm wondering if it really does have to sense DAYLIGHT to keep from turning on.

My husband wakes up in the middle of the night sometimes, and will turn on a light so he can walk through the bedroom without running into things. Sometimes he is too sleepy to remember or care to turn off the lights when he comes back to bed. This night light prevented that whole scenario last night, as he did not have to turn on any lights to find his way through the room. And for that reason I am glad I bought this night light.

If the night-light's designers are taking requests, then I'd like to see this type of night light have a more directional capacity, such as pointing downward toward the floor. Having light color options would be nice, too, like red, for avoiding night-blindness.

This motion detector light has everything it is supposed to:
1) It is a light (and nicely bright)
2) It comes on when there is motion (it turns on very quickly when you come in the room)
3) It has lasted 3 years without failing

I have this and another motion detector light that is now discontinued. I was looking to buy a few more and realized there werent any reviews.

I'll never understand why anyone uses an "always on" light over these, they are awesome.

These are perfect, they only turn on when there is motion at night. The sensor isn't as sensitive as a night sensing LED night light I bought at a big box store, meaning that this is less likely to turn on when there is low light. These are bright and actually rather pleasing to look at too. The only thing I would change would be to not have a flat top, which will likely collect dust over time.

I have three of these in the house (one in each bathroom and one in the kids' room). Not terribly bright but not too dim either. The motion sensor is not tripped by ceiling fans, but does work when waiving an arm or walking by. Works great!

I tried these out( I bought two of them) and they come on as soon as I come into a room. They also come on in the hall as soon as I leave the bedroom. No more stumbling around in the dark on the way to the bathroom. I have only had these for a short time but they are working as promised. I bought another one to use in the bathroom.

This night lite doesn't put out a lot of light but is very sensitive and works great where you only need a small amount of light.

I bought this motion sensor night light for a dark hallway. It works perfectly! Now I don't have to turn on the overhead light when I walk down the hall, this night light gives off enough light for me to see my way.

Pro.
LED Still work after 6 months
low power consumption

Con.
Motion is not working after 3 months
night sensor is also not working now after 6 months.
not bright enough, with LED tech of today this kind of night light could be better.

I cannot recommend this item since it broke after 6 months.
