Muzata 20Pack 3.3FT/1M Plus-Size Spotless LED Channel Silver Aluminum LED Strip Diffuser Channel with Milky White Cover U103 WW 1M

I've had my led strip lights installed for several months along the top of our cabinetry in the family room. I really like the effect, especially in the evening when we are watching a movie. They stay on constantly. However, I hated the fact that the lights were 'in my face', and looked a bit cheesy, like a casino. So, I bought the Muzata LED Channel and frosted diffuser cover to help solve the situation. It worked very well. I was also surprised how easy it was. Pros: Diffuses the lights and softens the glare (see photos, before/after) Relatively easy to install (see tips). Fit and finish is excellent. Diffuser covers snap in easily Easy to trim pieces for custom installs Cons: A few extra screws would be nice. I stripped the head on one, and needed to replace it since they give you just enough screws for the clamps they provide. A few extra clamps would be nice too. The end caps fit well, but if you need to run the light tape under them, they will pop off easily. I was going to file them to allow space for the tape, but decided to leave them alone for now. Tips: Use the right tools: Drill with 3/32" bit Hack saw Phillips screwdriver Measuring tape Electrical tape Allow two clamps per 1 meter section. Three would be better, but you may run short if you have smaller cut pieces. Drill pilot holes to accommodate the screws. I was installing this into cherry wood. Softer woods may not need the holes, as an ice pick may be sufficient. If smaller sections are needed, saw the length using a hack saw, but install the cover on the aluminum channel. By cutting both together you ensure that both pieces are the correct lengths. File the cut end to remove burrs and sharp edges. Snap channels into clamps, position the light tape (adhesive side down), install the diffuser cover and end caps (if needed). If you have a few led's showing around corners, black them out with electrical tape. It works perfectly.

Worked well for me. Easy enough to install.

These clean up your LED strip light installation quite well in my opinion. Even though we bought the deep channel, I wouldn't say it is completely "spotless." There's no way around it, you'd need to get an LED strip with more LEDs per meter than these to accomplish that. That said, I found these to diffuse the light well; well enough for our application (under cabinet lighting, we didn't want to see the reflection of the individual LEDs in our counter). At low light, you can see the individual spots, but they are still soft. When turned up to full brightness, the spots are nearly gone (first picture shows the reflection in our countertop with the diffuser pulled back on the left side). We cut with a hack saw, and then smoothed the cut edge out with sandpaper (be mindful not to press down too hard on your supporting hand when cutting, these are aluminum and will bend easy). The diffuser slid right in with no issue. We ended up using some 3M foam double sided tape to adhere these to the cabinets. While they've only been up for three days, so far there doesn't seem to be any sign they are going to fall off. I'd say my only minor complaint and reason for losing one star is the diffuser does reduce the amount of light that can get through. If I were to do this installation again, I would definitely still use these aluminum channels, but I would have looked for an LED strip that produce a little more output. What I have is still very usable, but I would prefer the brightness without the diffuser. All in all, I recommend these!

I got these after having to return other channels I ordered because of missing parts, not once but 2 times. These arrived undamaged and included all the parts to mount them and the end caps for the finished look. I can say that 2 things I'm not pleased with. 1. Some are a bit misshapen and have rough edges. Not all of them, but a couple of them. 2. I wanted spotless but they are in no way spotless. Can clearly see the dots under the diffuser. So I'm not 100% sold on their spotless claims. Still have not decided if I will actually keep them since I am not getting the selling point on their spotless claims and that is why I ordered this specific channel and diffuser.

I am 3/4 through installing this product in my living room. The installation is easy as long as you have the proper equipment that is required to accommodate this product. I am having to cut pieces to size and at 45 degree angles, I.E. a miter saw and an metal cutting grade saw blade for the miter saw. 4 stars for brightness. The diffuser cover was supposed to completely diffuse the light so it didn’t look spotty, it did not. None the less this will still work because I am going to use crown molding with AC conduit tape on the back of the crown molding to reflect the light on the wall. All of the pieces, screws and brackets work very well with this product. Overall it is perfect product for use with the Phillips HUE light strip line.

I have used these for multiple LED light installs. Very easy to install. Instead of using the brackets that come with it I drill small screw holes into the channels. Makes it easy to install on the wall level.

Easy to setup, good looking

These aluminum channels with white cover do help to diffuse the light but it will depend how close the leds are to each other if you want to avoid hot spots. Since the channel is so tall I attached the strips to the side walls and ran it on both sides. If you space the lights evenly then it avoids hot spots that are visible if placed directly opposite the diffuser. You should note that each 3.3ft section is cut flat at both ends so you can’t directly attach them but rather just but the next section as close as possible. It would be nice if these had a better way of making longer sections that were tight fits. You also don’t get enough of the clips to make a great hold so It recommend screwing right through the aluminum if you know you don’t want to take these down anytime soon.

deeper channel was great fit for tape light.

Disappointed. This channel does not provide very much diffusion. I can still see the spots on Phillips hue. Don’t waste your money.

Ad says "spotless" doesn't even come close to spotless. Item returned. Do not buy.
