    Our living room was very dark!

    Posted by Naomi on Feb 27th 2025

    to its location in our duplex, but now it's brighten up nicely and beautifully after getting Solatube. We regret we haven't done this earlier! Thank you so much!

    So much brighter now!

    Posted by Beth Dotan on Jan 24th 2025

    Highly recommend Solatube! I had dark areas in my bathrooms, hallway, and living room, and wanted more light. I found Solatube, I'm thrilled with the results--it brightened the rooms exactly as I hoped.

    It’s a total upgrade.

    Posted by Rucha Kapadia on Dec 24th 2024

    Our living room was so dark and these solar yes brought in sunshine and brightness. This company was easy to work with, reliable and helpful. Though the light doesn’t appear 100% like daylight compared to natural light, it’s brought in much more light to our room. Better on sunny days but overall, very happy with not living in darkness anymore!

    We used Solatube for our condo association skylights (5 total). We decided to use this company thanks to the reasonable quote, product quality, and skylight warranty.

    I am very pleased with my Solatube.

    Posted by Carole Collins on Aug 14th 2024

    I have very dreary north facing living and family rooms plus our kitchen. I constantly had the lights on to brighten up the rooms. I am very pleased with how everything turned out. Two of the 3 sets have solar night lights which are great!! I wake up each morning thinking the lights are on.

    A great light solution!

    Posted by alice iwinski on Jun 30th 2024

    Solatube is the best home project I’ve done since I moved into my house 9 years ago! My kitchen was so dark that I would have to turn on the lights during the day. When I found about solar tunnels, I was originally going to buy a knockoff from home depot. I am already thinking about where I could put my next Solatube.

    The 14" was a perfect fit!

    If you have dark areas in your house this is the way to go. I highly recommend this company! We love how much this changed the brightness inside our house

    I’m thrilled with the sunlight!

    Posted by Tara Izzo on Mar 24th 2024

    My entry room into my house has been so dark and I haven’t been able to get enough light in there to brighten the room. Put three beautiful Solar Tubes in and it looks like daytime in the room.

    Home feels so inviting now.

    Posted by Sam Gupta on Feb 18th 2024

    Have had them in a few times too bring in natural light into the living space. They really outdid themselves this time, brightening up a bedroom that is perpetually darker than necessary!

    Thank you so much!

    Posted by Tracey Robertson on Aug 20th 2023

    OMG these solar lights have changed my life gone are the days of having a very dark kitchen and dining room. I now don’t need to leave the lights in all day during the day or in the late afternoon so these have made such an amazing result and lights up my house all day. I am more than happy with my lights and would recommend you to everybody

    I AM IN LOVE!

    Posted by Sheila Lewis on Mar 21st 2023

    My dark den, located in the center of my house was always like a cave. I have been debating pulling the trigger and now I wonder why I WAITED SO LONG??! It has completely changed my room! The natural light from my solar tubes illuminates the room and provides light that I could not have imagined.

    Never thought to have natural light in my basement.

    Posted by Noah Smith on Jan 28th 2023

    Didn't think a basement could have natural light. Solatube proved me wrong! Highly recommended for game rooms and mancaves.

    This is the second Solar Tube I have purchased from this company. I purchased this to brighten up my utility room. I love it!!! The light radiates so bright with the Texas sun. It lights up my utility room and kitchen.

    Take my money!

    Posted by Irene M. on Aug 9th 2020

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new Solatubes! I live in a smaller condo which has one source of light; it's the slider at the end of the room. When I'd walk into the living/dining room all I could really see was the "light at the end of the tunnel". I do have moderate glaucoma which made the situation worse because things appear darker to me. It wasn't until the late afternoon that I got any real light in the room and it only lasted and hour or so. Now when I go into the living/dining room everything is lit up beautifully! The diffused lighting seems to get every corner of the room.

    I love cooking again.

    Posted by Roseleen Waldon on Jun 22nd 2020

    The amount of light the solatube gave us in our kitchen is incredible, Anytime throughout the day it delivers light even when our blinds are closed we have plenty of light. we have no hesitation what so ever in recommending Solatube to family and friends.

    Thanks Solatube for this product!

    Posted by Jean Thompson on Nov 4th 2019

    Our living room was always dark without the lights on but with our tubes we frequently check to see if we left the lights on before leaving home! They've made an incredible difference.

    Hassle free natural light source.

    Posted by Teresa M. on Jun 14th 2019

    Beautiful, bright natural light in my previously dark kitchen. I used to have to turn on all the lights to clean or cook. Now it is bright and beautiful! There is even a little glow at night, due to a small solar panel.

    Great job! I love our new solar tubes.

    Unbelievable illumination. Our upstairs hallway is brighter with our solar tube lighting than it was with ceiling lights.
