Fast delivery, excellent prices and great communication plus they gave me a discount coupon off my next purchase. I did extensive price shopping and these guys were the lowest on-line that I could find. Just a super vendor all around, highly recommended!

I found this to be the exact same light, without shipping costs, from lightinguniverse.com. This saved me around $70. Thank you.

Customer Comment from New Zealand
Hi Jessi,
I was hoping to get some pictures for you but because they are in a stairwell and hall way they are not coming out too well. All the lights look fantastic up and we have had many comments about them and how unusual they are. They suit the style of our house very well. They travelled well and that was due I believe to the fact they were well packaged. Nothing was damaged or broken. We had to pay some duty at this end but it was still worth while ordering them directly from you as the exchange rate was very good. (Not so good now though so we have been lucky) Thank you for making our experience of purchasing online safe and enjoyable and we will certainly recommend your site to our friends.
Regards
Pamela

Dani,
Thank you for your consideration, the piece arrived and I am very happy. I have a dinner party tomorrow night where I wanted to show off your lovely light. I appreciate your kindness and will not forget it. Your employees are very sensitive to the needs of others.
Again I thank you for your consideration

Lighting Showroom has quality merchandise at great prices. My first
order arrived damaged, but it was handled extremely quickly and
professionally and resolved. Within a few days I had my replacement
mirror, which arrived in great condition. I highly recommend Lighting
Showroom for their merchandise, prices, but most of all for their
excellent customer service.

I just had to let you know that your site is probably the best designed on-line shopping experience I have ever had and I do a LOT of on-line purchasing. Thank you for making it so easy to find what I wanted and I loved the way you allowed me to tag the ones I like and hold them--and even e-mail them to myself and others for their input. I will be back to purchase as soon as I can figure out which ones I like best. Thanks again!

Customer Review
Just a note to express to your company our appreciation for the wonderful service on our recent order. The fixtures came promptly with only one problem, a broken glass shade. A call to your office regarding the broken part was immediately handled and we received the replacement shade in a few days. We could not ask for any better service than what we received. Along
with the excellent service, the fixtures we ordered are very attractive and a wonderful addition to our home. Your pricing was very good and when the time comes for us to purchase additional lighting fixtures, we will look to your company. Thank you again for the excellent service.

I had already selected two pendant lights from a local lighting store, but decided to check on line for something comparable in looks and hoped to save a little money. When I found the Lighting Showroom sight I was delighted at the selection and even more delighted to find two pendant lights I liked even better than the ones I had in mind and at a fifth the price! You're my new lighting center Lighting Showroom!

Hi Dani
No, they are fine. They will look great after they’re installed. No more worries from me. You can file my stuff under “problem customers of the past” and be done with it. You have been a joy to work with, and a rarity too. You never find anyone who’s willing to step up to the plate much in customer service, so I’m always impressed with that.
I will eventually need to order some lights for my hallway (several months to a year away), and I’ll be sure and order through your company. I chose your company carefully, based on reputation, and I was not disappointed!
Thanks again for all your hard work, Dani.

A Lighting Designer Advances Brilliant Energy-Saving Ideas
Have you ever heard of daylight harvesting? The idea is to leverage the available natural light for greater energy-efficiency and esthetic value. If you are green-minded and planning to build a new home, daylight harvesting is an amazing energy saving concept.
Linda Segreto of Schrager Lighting Design in Ridgefield, CT says the first step is to hire a green architect who will have a good understanding of how to maximize natural light and position your house accordingly on the lot.
The second step is to hire a green-minded lighting designer to work in conjunction with the architect.
The direction of the sun and which way your home faces is very important for daylight harvesting, Segreto explains.
For example, bedrooms don't need natural light during the day, making a Northern exposure perfectly acceptable.
On the other hand, for rooms you spend a lot of time in - like the kitchen or family room - facing South or West will provide plenty of natural ambient light.
Another savvy energy-saving idea is to install a dimming system that controls lighting throughout the entire home. According to Segreto, the best system is Lutron's Graphic Eye. This product allows the owner to schedule a sophisticated lighting plan for every fixture in the house with dimming capability. Not only can lamps be scheduled to turn on at a specific time, but at a specific power level as well.
"The beauty of the Lutron system is that you can create and program lighting scenes for each room, judiciously choosing energy levels for esthetic reasons and cost savings at the same time," she says.
Segreto explains how lighting scenes work. A morning scene in the kitchen might include the light over the kitchen table set at 50%, counter lights at 50% and ambient light at 50%, depending upon window size and the available natural light. The evening scene after dinner would be completely different with the light over the table and countertops at 30% and wall washers at 60-70%.
The controls are located in a wall box and are programmed after installation. Then, as the seasons change and the lighting needs change with them, the program will need to be adjusted.
The schedule can also be manually over-ridden when special needs arise, like creating the mood for a party. Using a system like this saves a lot of energy because all the lights are not constantly on 100% power levels. Nor do you need to rely on memory to turn down dimmers or shut off lights. Plus, dimmers extend bulb life, which provides another layer of savings.
A system like this requires bulbs that are dimmable. The good news is that compact fluorescent bulbs, which are such big energy savers, are now dimmable and come in almost every style and size, just like traditional incandescent bulbs. Even though these bulbs cost more upfront, the energy savings make for a quick return on the investment.

Excellent selection and the site was very easy to use. It was nice to have all the lights in the same grouping appear for easier shopping. We saw several other lights we plan to order in the near future for our new home being built.
