| Jan 10, 2023 at 4:15 | comment | added | ThreePhaseEel | @robl45 -- does the lamp not fit correctly with the box sticking out, or is it merely an aesthetic issue? | |

"Oblong" is "elongated rectangle or oval shape" - the box shown is neither.

| Jan 9, 2023 at 15:54 | comment | added | robl45 | The issue is the box is sticking out of the ceiling, I got another box that will be flush with the ceiling but those boxes are all round and as you can see, this box isn't round. Both are 4 inch, but when holding them up to each other in the store, the 4 inch round seems a little bigger so I"m trying to figure out from people that have done this before. | |
