ASD Swivel LED Under Cabinet Lighting 18 in - Directional, Dimmable

Our review of the ASD Swivel LED Under Cabinet Lighting finds it best for homeowners and DIYers who want flexible, quality under-cabinet illumination without complicated electronics. The single biggest reason to consider this fixture is its 50 swivel lens combined with 3 selectable color temperatures, which makes it easy to steer warm or cool light exactly where you need it for tasks or mood lighting. Installation options and the built-in Hi/Low switch mean it adapts to different kitchen layouts and user preferences.

Key Features

• 50 swivel lens: Allows directional lighting or a hidden backlight so you can highlight work surfaces or create indirect ambient light.
• 3 CCT selectable: Lets you choose Soft White 2700K, Warm White 3000K, or Cool White 4000K to match cabinet finishes and tasks.
• Hi/Low switch: Built-in 100% and 50% brightness settings give quick control without a dimmer for simple zoned lighting.
• Dimmable with triac dimmers: Smooth dimming from about 10% to 100% with modern LED dimmers lets you fine tune light levels for atmosphere or task work.
• Hardwire or plug-in: Two installation choices and linkable wiring make it practical for retrofits or new builds and for running multiple fixtures in a run.
• Durable and certified: Aluminum housing, ETL and ENERGY STAR certifications, plus a 5-year warranty offer durability and long life.

Who It's For

This light is ideal for homeowners updating kitchen task lighting, renters who can use the plug-in option, and hobbyists who want a neat under-cabinet backlight or directional beam for worktops, closets, or showcases. The swivel lens particularly benefits cooks and crafters who need to aim light precisely at a cutting board or project area.

Those who need very long runs of linked fixtures should check wiring length before purchasing, since customer feedback on wiring distance is mixed. If you require smart-home networked control or specialty color rendering beyond CRI90+, a different fixture with integrated smart features may be a better fit.
