Getting to know the Under Cabinet Light

Before the 1980s, there were no cabinets in Chinese kitchens. The kitchens include only the stove, table and other necessities. 

After the 1980s, we began to buy or make some simple cabinets for placing pots, dinnerware and seasonings. 

Therefore, Chinese people have no habit of using cabinet lights. Even now, our kitchen cabinets are becoming more and more exquisite and high-end, but we still don't have lights under the cabinet. We install a ceiling light on the ceiling of kitchen, or a light on the wall.

After entering the North American lighting industry, I began to have a preliminary understanding of Under Cabinet Light. Generally speaking, the Under Cabinet Light is to illuminate the area where we prepare food. It's a little similar to the function of a table lamp, in my opinion. It is so convenient to use the Under Cabinet Lights for us to light the areas of cleaning, selecting and cutting the food and it avoids hurting hands when using knives or other sharp tools.

Now, there are more and more stypes and functions of Under Cabinet Lights.
