I've not used lampandlight.co.uk before but as I was looking for something specific for my home I found them via a search of the internet. I found exactly what I needed and was pleased that the price offered was not ridiculously high as I had seen by other sellers. Finding stuff and adding to my basket was very easy to do. The checkout process was also very straight forward and all without an app and done on a mobile phone. With Christmas on its way I was informed delivery would be in the new year, not an issue as this was for home and not seen as a Christmas gift, however all was delivered very quickly. Packaging was well designed with a seperate box, padded, for the marble base.The only damage I found was a small chip in the marble base but decided, that as it was underneath and not able to be seen or touched when the light was in use, to use it as supplied.

Placed an order, received a Yodel tracking number, but they never dispatched the item to the courier. Then a week later they emailed to say "my return has been processed and refund will be sent within three days"... What on earth...? Wasted several hours of my time reviewing and comparing lighting and then simply didn't dispatch the order. I'm guessing they're just an intermediary reseller and once they'd taken my money they couldn't source the items below the price they charged me. So they simply wasted time. Take my advice and buy from established retailers. Even if it appears to cost you slightly more the reality is you risk not getting the items from a place like this so you end up buying from the reputable place, you suffer an unnecessary delay and you waste hours of your life.

Order cancelled without any communication. Awaiting refund.

Outside the EU you have to import the goods yourself

You must clearly point out on the site that the price does not include customs duty and VAT and that users who are like me in Serbia must organize the import of goods into their own country. The whole site looks like it's a local company and you'll get the goods the same day after 6 p.m. and then you realize that the goods are in the Netherlands and they call you to organize the forwarding and import of the goods to your country. I would never have decided on this purchase if I had known what it was about. I would like to point out that you do not have this information on the site and that according to the law on consumer protection in Serbia, you should have it.

Lovely lamps but two things need improving

Lovely lamps but two things - there was no adjustment clip for smaller bayonet fittings provided as with many other lampshade companies, meaning delay and additional cost before install, this should be a standard to remove as needed, not an additional item. I bought two lampshades and unfortunately both came creased even though the delivery boxes were not damaged. These creases can’t be removed and will have to do our best to hide them but must have occured before / whilst being boxed. Annoying issues but otherwise very nice products and pleased with how they look

Lack of communication and care

I received an email informing me my package would be delivered on the 18th or 19th. As the property it's getting delivered to is empty it's important I know the dates. My husband went to the house today to await the delivery but found it wedged next to bush in front of the house. I checked the tracking and found that it had been delivered on the 16th and I had not been informed. This means my package was out all night and could have water damage as it rained last night. I would not have minded receiving it early if I had been informed.

Order was market as dispatched but never sent

Order was market as dispatched, given a invoice and money taken from my account. Yet 5 days later courier still said they were waiting for the sender to drop the parcel. Had to call and ask for a full refund and was told that they will raise a credit note after a few days and then process my refund “any pay you what’s due”… did not sound like a full refund and I am still waiting for confirmation of a refund being requested two days ago.

Careful about lead times - not UK based

The website makes a lot of fuss about 'dispatch today'. What isn't clear is that despite this being a .co.uk website, the stock is in the Netherlands - so 'dispatch today on DPD' definitely DOESN'T mean it's arriving tomorrow. Very slow to respond to questions, meaning that we had an issue reordering from elsewhere and the items had been dispatched and now need returning. Just be careful about lead times, that's all.
