Default under cabinet kitchen counter lighting?

HATES the old under cabinet fluorescent fixtures with the buzzing,
flickering, etc. Last weekend I cut a box in the ceiling above her sink
so she could ditch an old surface mount fluorescent for a pendant type
fixture, you'd have thought that I painted the whole room for her as
happy as she seemed. So given that, are there any attractive fixtures,
either LED or fluorescent (with electronic ballasts of course) to hang
under your typical kitchen cabinets that can be hardwired and are not
extortionately expensive? what are good brands these days? I can do the
work but am not tapped into the world of electricians so I could use
some ideas to get started.


thanks,

I use string lights behind my countertop back splash. Lights up the wall
and undercounter. Can be used on a dimmer.
