NUVO Lighting 60-7172 Sommerset, 2 Light, Vanity Fixture, Brushed Nickel Finish with Clear Glass

The Sommerset 60-7172 is an indoor fixture with a damp location rating, so it can go in a bathroom where it sees steam and humidity, including over a tub area. It is not wet-rated, so it should not be mounted inside a shower enclosure where it takes direct spray. It is cULus listed.

It takes two E26 medium base bulbs, A19 shape, rated to 60W each at 120V. Bulbs are not included, so order lamps separately. Dimming depends entirely on the lamp you install, since the fixture itself is an incandescent-technology housing with no driver, put dimmable LED A19s in it if you want it on a dimmer.

No. The Sommerset 60-7172 is not ADA compliant, and its 5.75 inch projection off the wall is the reason it will not qualify where protruding-object limits apply. For corridors or any location where ADA projection rules are enforced, specify an ADA-listed vanity or wall sconce instead. Above a vanity top in a dwelling bath it is generally not an issue.

The fixture ships with 6 inches of lead wire, which is enough to make up to splices inside a standard wall box but leaves no slack for a long reach. If the box sits off to one side of the mounting location, plan on extending with wire nuts and additional conductors inside the box.

Steel body with glass shades, finished in brushed nickel, and the whole fixture weighs 3.17 lbs. At that weight it hangs off a standard wall box crossbar with no extra blocking or bracing needed.

There is no CCT selector on the Sommerset 60-7172. Color temperature is set entirely by the A19 lamps you install, so for a property where you want every bathroom to match, standardize on one bulb color temperature across the building.

Yes. The Sommerset 60-7172 carries a Prop 65 warning for lead. That matters for institutional and government purchasers who need the disclosure on file, the fixture is still cULus listed for its intended indoor damp-location use.

Brushed nickel with clear glass is the configuration sold under part number 60-7172. If the rest of the bath hardware is chrome or bronze, this one will not match, look to another fixture in the Sommerset collection in the finish you need.
