This light is exactly what I needed. Although they retail through B&Q, you can order direct from the manufacturer and it's cheaper! Presumably because the retailer doesn't need to add on their bit o... See more

Excellent Wall Lights, fast delivery

Saxby Severus Landscape LED Wall/bulkhead lights are excellent, and delivery was very quick. Product description would be improved by adding side-on & rear views and full dimensions (L x W x thickness).

Thank you also for the helpful feedback regarding the product information. We’ve now updated the listing on our website to include more detailed dimensions and additional images to make things clearer. Unfortunately, we don’t currently have a side-view image available, but we’ve added everything we have to help future customers.

Poor Customer service- No invoice sent

Brilliant at sending the products which arrived the next day. Did not receive an invoice. Unable to speak to the company on the phone. Can’t access the website and saved password does not work. Can’t prove purchase for my Company to reimburse me or for VAT. Very frustrating!.

Hi Rory,

I'm really sorry to read your review and to hear you've had difficulty getting your invoice and reaching us — that’s certainly not the experience we want for any of our customers.

I’ve checked your order, and I can see that the invoice and shipment confirmation were sent automatically on the day of your order and again the day after. Sometimes these emails can unfortunately land in Junk or Spam, so please could you check there.

We’ve also checked all of our contact points:

Our customer service inbox (linked directly to the website’s Contact Us form)

WhatsApp

Our mobile number

Voicemails

We unfortunately can’t find any messages from you, so it would be really helpful if you could let me know:
• Which phone number you called, and
• Whether you were able to leave a voicemail

We’re currently in peak season, so calls can take a little longer to answer, but we always return voicemails, WhatsApps and emails within 24–48 hours, so I’d really like to understand what went wrong here so we can fix it.

In the meantime, I’ve emailed your invoice again from a separate email address so you have everything you need for your company reimbursement and VAT records.

If there’s anything further I can help with, please let me know — I’m more than happy to assist.

Bought a Muni 60cm dia copper and glass…

Bought a Muni 60cm dia copper and glass pendant light many years ago and recently broke one of the smaller clear glass globes. Finally managed to track down a supplier who had spare parts for a smaller diameter light - Poole Lighting, ordering online (not the exact item needed however) was easy and the piece arrived 2 days later, well packed and protected. My reason for the 4 stars and not 5, is that having left 3messages requesting a call back to discuss on their customer services answerphone, I am still waiting, having sorted out the repair in the meantime - otherwise, very helpful chap at their head office who directed me to the factory shop….

Hi there,

Thank you so much for your kind words about our spare parts service — we’re really pleased to hear the globe arrived safely and helped you complete your repair.

I’m very sorry to hear that your voicemail messages weren’t returned as quickly as they should have been. We’re currently in our peak season, and although we are doing our best to keep up, call-backs are taking longer than normal. This absolutely isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we’re reviewing our phone process to prevent delays.

For future reference, our Contact Us form on the website routes directly to another team who can often respond faster during busy periods — but we appreciate this isn’t something you would have known at the time.

Thank you again for your patience and for taking the time to leave a review. We’re glad we could help you get your light repaired, and we hope to assist you again in the future.

Great Service

Great Service, my lamps were delivered the next day, when I found that few of the lamp shades were broken it got replaced immediately after. I look forwards to buy again from them.

Another excellent purchase

I have bought several lights from this company although this was the first time by mail order. As usual the item was good quality and represents amazing value. Was very well packaged as well. Very happy customer.

Faulty bedside lights.

After purchasing 2 bedside lights we had problems with blowing fuses. Contacted Poole Lighting and explained the problem they put 2lights on test for us and asked for the faulty lights to be returned.
The tested lights were shipped to us with no shipping cost.
The new lights are working well.
Cannot praise the customer service enough. Thank you

Excellent company.

Excellent company.. tried for years to get spare crystals from John Lewis and they've never been helpful. A review on John Lewis website said to try Poole Lighting which I did and an email later they sent me links to the spare parts I needed and they're now happily hanging from the light.

Glass shade replacement

We bought an Edinburgh floor lamp which is really nice in brass colour. As we were putting it together one of the glass lamp shades broke. Luckily enough you can order spares on the website which we did & they arrived very quickly & well packaged. Very pleased with the service.
