It has covered up the edge of the opening from the builder's ceiling light. I've not needed the converter kits though and will not be able to return them.

Need different size options.
It was hard to install. Did not work well in our existing can light and we had to modify things.

Big Flop
I spent about 5 hours installing this, and I have put up dozens of lighting fixtures. The self drilling screws were not long enough--had to hunt new screws. The threaded pipe was too long and I did not discover this until it was too late. I shined a flashlight toward the top of the can and saw that the sharp end of the threaded pipe was chewing through the wires. The ground wire was completely exposed. Fortunately the red and black wires were ok. Some of the holes in the support plate were drilled too big for a standard 8/32" screw. Poor manufacturing! The edge of the round support plate was sharp. Also poor manufacturing. This is definitely not the way it went on Youtube. The directions for installing for track lights were completely wrong.
The ultimate problem was that, when I finally got the light installed after 5 hours of frustration, nothing happened when I flicked on the switch! I had to take EVERYTHING apart and finally determined that the part that screws into the light socket was not conducting electricity! When I took that part out and put the light bulb back, the light bulb worked fine. There is something in the screw-in part that did not make contact properly.
I would NOT recommend this for a fan. When everthing was complete I was able to easily turn the support plate with my hand. Do you really want this supporting a fan hanging over your head!
I threw everything back into the box for a return. $50 for trash. I'm already coming up with my own version and it is working great. I do not recommend this for a DIY'er! The advise I would give if you really have to buy this is --immediately test the wires with a meter after you have screwed the part into the light socket.

Still a little tricky
The idea behind this is good, but it is still tricky to install. It's hard to describe in writing, but the way the instructions say to do it, you wouldn't have any room to hook up your wiring so you have to adapt a bit. It was frustrating, but it worked in the end.
Pros: Improves Functionality
Cons: Hard To Install

Does the job, but not a "slam dunk"
Be prepared to improvise.... use parts provided plus some extra screws etc.

Works as advertised!
The can converter was the perfect solution to my dilemma of how to secure a pendant lighting structure to my current recessed can lighting fixture. The parts were all well made except for the cheap beveled plastic medallion (which is unfortunately the only part that shows). The directions aren't well written / illustrated, and installation took quite a while and required some improvisation for my pendant light to attach. All in all, a good product, although I think it is a bit overpriced for what is essentially just some fitted bracket hardware.
Pros: Works as advertised, Parts are well made
Cons: Directions poorly written, Medallion is cheap, Not easy to install, A bit pricey

didn't work for me, but good idea.
i couldn't use this because my bucket light wasn't the right kind, i think because i live in a condo with cement ceilings. it seemed like a nice idea, but wasn't able to do it myself. if you had the right kind of bucket light, i'm sure it would be fine.
Pros: Improves Functionality
Cons: Hard To Install

This is a great product idea, but depending on the can light style you are trying to convert, may not work.

There's got to be a better way
I would not use this for a ceiling fan ever. I managed to make it work for a small flush mount ceiling light. I couldn't figure it out, and ended up using the pieces in the kit to make something that worked. Probably not up to code though. Pro: They give you a lot of pieces to improvise with. Con: There's got to be a better way.
Pros: Improves Functionality
