Kichler Benno 34in 4-Light Vanity | Polished Nickel Steel & Opal Glass | Bathroom Vanity Light | 4 x 40W G9, Dimmable, Damp Rated | Model 55173PN
A 34-inch wide, 4-light bathroom vanity light in polished nickel steel with opal glass orbs, designed for damp-rated bathroom use.
The Benno collection combines clean modern lines with subtle industrial detailing. Four milky white opal glass shades sit on a polished nickel steel frame, creating a soft, diffused light. The fixture can be mounted with the glass shades facing up or down for versatility in your bathroom layout.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 inch vanity, mounted 75-80 inches above the floor
- Damp-rated bathrooms, including those with steam from a shower or tub
- Modern, transitional, or industrial style bathrooms needing ambient light over the mirror
- Double vanity setups where two fixtures are used for balanced lighting
Not ideal for
- Small powder rooms under 3 ft wide - the 34-inch width may overpower the space
- Spaces needing bright task lighting for grooming - this is ambient light (4 x 40W max incandescent)
- Outdoor or covered patio areas (rated for Damp, not Wet locations)
How bright is it?
Uses four G9 base bulbs up to 40W each (incandescent), for a total of up to 160W. Brightness depends on bulb choice - expect approximately 600-800 lumens total with standard incandescent bulbs, suitable for ambient bathroom lighting rather than primary task light. LED equivalent G9 bulbs will produce higher lumens per watt.
Light color and feel
The opal glass shades diffuse light softly, eliminating harsh glare. With warm white bulbs (2700-3000K), the light will have a cozy, flattering tone for skin tones. The fixture is dimmable when used with dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch.
Sizing and fit
Overall width 34 inches, height 8.75 inches, extends 6.5 inches from the wall. Backplate is 5.25 inches diameter. The 34-inch width works best over a single 30-36 inch vanity or centered between two sinks on a 48-60 inch vanity.
