Description
The Gosmelle is a slim, round LED downlight that sits on the surface of the ceiling rather than being recessed into it. It measures 28.5cm across and just 2.8cm deep, with a white steel body and a white plastic diffuser across its face. The LED is integrated, so there is no bulb to buy or change: it draws 20.5W and gives 2,400lm of warm white light at 3000K, a cosy, homely tone rather than a cool office white. It is rated IP44, which means it is protected from splashing water, so it can go in a bathroom as happily as in the drier rooms of the house.
In a bathroom it gives a clear, warm light without the glare of an exposed bulb, and a qualified electrician will confirm the right zone. It sits just as well in a living room or study, where 2,400lm is a generous output for a single ceiling light and the warm tone keeps the room relaxed in the evening. Because it is so shallow, it suits rooms with low ceilings, where a pendant would hang into the headroom, and the plain white rim sits quietly against a white or pale ceiling. We suggest it wherever you want one neat, bright light in the middle of the room and nothing fussy.
It runs on 220-240V mains and is not dimmable. There is no switch on the fitting itself; it is switched at the wall, so it works from an ordinary on/off switch rather than a dimmer. Its energy class is F. As a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. It weighs 0.9KG packed, so it is light to handle on a stepladder.

Frequently Asked
Can the Gosmelle go in a bathroom?
Yes. It is rated IP44, which means it is protected from splashing water, so it suits a bathroom, and a qualified electrician will confirm the right zone.
How bright is this downlight?
It gives 2,400lm of warm white light at 3000K from an integrated LED that draws 20.5W, a generous output for a single ceiling light.
Is the Gosmelle dimmable?
No, it is not dimmable. It has no switch of its own and is switched at the wall, so use a standard on/off switch rather than a dimmer.
How big is the downlight?
It measures 28.5cm across and just 2.8cm deep, so it sits close to the ceiling and suits rooms where headroom is tight.
Does it need a bulb?
No bulb is needed, because the LED is integrated into the fitting, so the light source is built in and there is nothing to replace.
What materials are the body and diffuser?
The body is steel and the diffuser is plastic, both in white, so the whole fitting reads as one clean, plain white disc on the ceiling.
