I looked through so many of this type of light, as there are so many out there and I decided on this one. I'm happy with my purchase.
My entryway is dark and I dislike coming home or turning the corner to a dark corridor, to tell you the truth. I wanted adjustable lighting that would soften that part of the apartment. I put it under the top panel of the shoe cabinet. It's great!
I leave it on the lowest setting and turn it up when I'm home. It was so useful during the past winter months when the sun sets so early. During the summer, I'd probably use it less.
Adhesive backing is good. If you have a matte painting finish, it will peel it off.
Heat or burning has not been an issue thus far.
Repositioning wouldn't be a problem with double-sided tape.
One caveat, next time I buy, I'd get one with a timer.
