Anyone who has installed these in place of old can recessed lights, how difficult is it for someone with low experience?
It's extremely easy. Just replaced 6 existing can lights with these in about 15 minutes. Unscrew light bulb, Unhook springs holding old trim in place, screw in new socket without light attached. Slide the metal tab tensioners to make them slightly smaller than fully extended (very easy to understand/do when you have a light in your hand). Attach new light, push into place and give it a slight turn to add some extra resistance to keep it flush to the wall.
Anyone have used both these and slim care to share if the slims are worth it?
Have both in my house. Slims were bought recently to install in a room that did not have recessed lights in the ceiling. Once installed, they both function the same as you would expect. I haven't seen the slims on sale though so would have been cheaper for me to buy these and the cans to install.

750 lumens is more than enough, 1100 above is an overkill imo and not worth the premium
