LED or Xenon

Hello!

I'm in the midst of a kitchen reno (gutting)and need an unbiased opinion from the experienced. I would like hardwired dimmable LEDs for UCL and think I'm going with the Philips eW Profile Powercore LED for its simplicity. My electrician is fine with LED but thinks I'm going with Kichler which he is intalling on his current project (he is currently on vacation so I haven't consulted with him on the Philips choice).

My DH, who has access to many electricians, said he has been advised not to go with LED. "LED is not there yet- LEDs fail, go with Xenon" this particular electrician told him.

The prices look similar. I like the LED for the savings on electricity. I have read that Xenon is hot which I don't have an issue with.

What are your thoughts? Thanks!
