We installed our Solatube back in March 2012 and we are still amazed by how much this product has changed the way we feel about our laundry room/garage door access. No longer do we have to turn on the light every time we enter this room. On sunny days and even moonlit nights, theres a stream of light that pours down that shaft. And lastly, for all you people who abhor punching holes in their roof because of potential leaks....the skylight dome hasn't been breached and the flashing around the dome is intact with no leaks. You'll never regret putting in one of these Solatubes.
