Hello,

I'm not a big fan of down lighters but there are two in the en suite
and I figured tat I'd keep them for now. However, they both look a bit
tired and the one near the shower has bubbles under the paint as if it
is rusting.

I was thinking of buying some new ones. I see Toolstation sells a
no-name and a Sylvania; the Sylvania is twice the cost (I'm looking at
the IP56 ones because of the shower).

Is it worth paying extra for the Sylvania or do Sylvania have little
to do with the design and manufacture of them; are they just rebadged?

Thanks,
Stephen.

Can't comment on makes but, for the least fuss, you'll need:
a) lamps which need the same size of hole in the ceiling as the existing
ones, and
b) lamps which operate at the same voltage as the existing - i.e. either
240v or 12v with a transformer [1][Do you know which yours are?]

[1] You could probably actually get away with replacing 240v lamps with
12v lamps which each have their own built-in transformer (rather than a
separate one) provided the hole size is right

Go for proper LED Downlights. Look at:
