I bought my light at the local Ace where it was being sold for 30 dollars. That's too much for what you get, so the special 50% off coupon from Ace came in handy. The light comes fully assembled right out of the box, but note that fluorescent bulbs are not incuded. I got a pair for about five dollars. Also included in the box are two chains for hanging and a cord for the pull.

Hanging the light was easy as was putting in the first light tube. Installing the second tube was a little harder because the light bulbs are so close together that they are almost touching. There's barely enough room between the bulbs for the pull chain that scrapes against the bulbs when pulled. I foresee this as a problem down the road. We won't be using the pull chain because the light is plugged into a power strip with an on/off switch that we use to turn the light on and off.

This shop light serves its purpose in our basement laundry area and was bought to replace a fancier Lithonia model with a more aesthetic silver hood. Unfortunately the bulb/holding plastic piece at the end of that more decorative model broke.

Arrived on schedule, worked fine. Nice long cords, each one comes with two S hooks and chains, so you will need another set of hooks to attach the chains to the ceiling or other surface. Purchased as part of a DIY plant starting set-up. Gardening daughter is thrilled!
