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.

I bought two lamps, and one was faulty. I have emailed and telephoned to have the faulty lamp replaced but have not had any response yet.

Unsafe goods

Metal spotlights should be earthed. It says so on the item itself. So why supply a two core cable?

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.

Still haven’t received the parcel but I’ve been asked to review it, it’s with Yodel, perhaps company needs to change courier?

Disappointed wit( the quality.

I was seduced by the offer of a highly discounted bollard lamp but was disappointed when they arrived as they were made of thin steel powder coated and not cast aluminium as most of them are. I guess you ultimately get what you pay for, but am not sure they will last very long..

I was able to place my order my money was taken yet the item was not in stock I had to chase several times before I was told a refund could be given. I was given 10% discount code for new purchase that did not work even after being given at least 4 discount codes.

Our of stock with no communication

Ordered and paid for lights. Had email to say dispatch will be delayed, stating a date. 7 days after that date I rung to chase and the lights were never in stock in the first place!!! Job all finished and work men left with no lights fitted. I am beyond disappointed. Cancelled and got money back.

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

I asenbled the lamp easily but it is absolutely impossible to fit the bulb into the shade(holder) I have emailed and even sent a video of the problem, as requested - but have yet to hear about any solutions. If I can't fit the bulb, the lamp is useless to me-so, am not very happy
