Description
Round, shallow and quiet once it is in place, this is the plainest sort of downlight: a matt white face, a GU10 lampholder already fitted, and an inner ring that swivels so the beam can be tipped away from vertical. It sits in an 80mm cut-out, which is the common size across most of the range, and it accepts a lamp of up to 50W. We would fit an LED reflector lamp here, and if you want the light on a dimmer, choose a lamp that is marked as dimmable.
The tilt is what makes it useful. Aim a run of them at a kitchen worktop, along a hallway wall, at the shelves in an alcove or across a picture, and you get light where it is wanted rather than a flat wash on the floor. The narrow trim keeps things calm in a low ceiling, so it suits bedrooms and landings as well as busier rooms. Keep it to rooms that stay dry; a bathroom zone or a covered porch needs a sealed fitting instead.
The finish is a flat, low sheen white that disappears against a painted ceiling, and the fitting is light in the hand. Cleaning asks very little: wait until the lamp is cold, then run a soft cloth over the trim and the reflector cone, keeping polishes and scouring creams well away from the white face. It carries a one year warranty. The same round swivel head comes in aluminium, sand black and satin nickel with chrome if you want the trim to read as metal, and there is a square version of this shape in matt white for rooms where the joinery is all straight lines. Lamps are not supplied, so add a GU10 to suit the beam you are after.

Frequently Asked
What size hole does it need?
It is made for an 80mm cut-out. The visible trim measures 92mm across, so it covers the opening with a small margin all round.
How deep is the fitting?
The body stands 24mm from the trim, which is shallow for a downlight of this kind.
Can I dim it?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable GU10 lamp and pair it with a suitable dimmer. Neither the lamp nor a dimmer is included.
Which lamp do you suggest?
A 50mm reflector LED in GU10 form. The fitting is rated for lamps up to 50W, though an LED will draw far less than that.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. This one is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms and use a rated fitting in bathroom zones.
Does it come with the lampholder?
Yes, the GU10 lampholder is fitted and wired ready to take a lamp.
