Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many customers were dissatisfied with the product quality, describing items as cheap, poorly made, and not as advertised. Issues frequently reported include products arriving damaged, not functioning correctly, or falling off walls due to inadequate adhesive. Reviewers also expressed frustration with the company's refund and return policies, particularly when items were purchased during a "sale" or if the damage wasn't reported within a very short timeframe. Some people were also dissatisfied with the pricing, feeling misled about what was included, such as bulbs, which often had to be purchased separately despite initial impressions. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with their purchase, finding the products to be of decent quality, stylish, and functional, exceeding their expectations despite initial concerns.

Not the best pirchase I have made. Long delivery if as stated in uk. Badly packaged, lights work when they feel like it. Sometimes to turn them off have to take bulb off. Pricey.

Great wall lights

I ordered a pair of wall lamps and then read the Trustpilot reviews - my heart sank. I assumed that I had been duped and resigned myself to the fact that they would be rubbish, if they turned up at all, and that I'd be stuck with them. HOWEVER - they're here, they're up and they look fantastic. My only criticism is the sales pitch; "ambience-uk" lead me to believe it was a UK company, which it's not. I was also lead to believe that bulbs were included; after paying for the lamps, I was immediately prompted to pay for bulbs at £20. Still thinking that they were included, and that they were trying to sell me additional bulbs, I declined the offer, at which point the price dropped to £10! So I bought them, thinking that £10 was reasonable for a spare pair of rechargeable bulbs. Delivery took a couple of weeks, with little communication, but when they arrived everything was as described. Just the one set of bulbs, so yes, you do need to buy them separately, but do as I did, refuse the first offer, see if they reduce them! (That might not happen when they realise I've told you!). Anyway - lamps well packaged, all present and correct, I scanned a QR code that they'd included which gave me really clear assembly and fitting instructions. I had doubts about the sticky pads after reading previous reviews, but I followed the instructions and they worked perfectly, I'm confident it's a permanent fix. If by any chance they come down in the future, I'll use the screws provided because they look great and work really well with the remotes - they came with 2 remotes. They are brighter than I expected, but can be dimmed. Lots of different colour options as well. Disco bedroom! The bulbs come with USB charging cables which both work. So, after my initial worries, I am really pleased and can recommend the product, as long as you accept that they'll take a while to arrive and that you do need to purchase the bulbs. I think that the company should be more honest about their location and more clear about what's included in the price. They should have more confidence in their product, they should maybe up the price by £10 and make it clear that bulbs are included, it would spare them a lot of negative feedback!

Hello,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We are really pleased to hear that you are happy with your lamps and that they are working well in your home.

We also truly appreciate your constructive feedback. To clarify: our company details and warehouse locations are always outlined in our Terms and Conditions, but we understand this should be made more visible to avoid confusion. Likewise, certain lamp models are sold without bulbs, and we realize clearer communication on this point would spare a lot of misunderstanding. Your suggestion to include the bulbs directly in the main offer is a valuable one, and we will take it into serious consideration.

Your experience shows that when installed according to the instructions, the adhesive pads and fittings can provide a reliable result, and we are delighted you are enjoying the remote features and light options.

Thank you again for your honesty — feedback like yours helps us to improve and gives future customers confidence.

Kind regards,
Sarah – Ambience Design

Please dont waste your money

Please dont waste your money. The website is unclear and leads you to believe the products come with the bulbs and remote- they are not included. The product quality is also appalling. I requested a return and was offered 10% off the bulbs. I replied stating I still wished to return my item, only to be told because I purchased it via promotion, a return would not be honoured. This is not clear on the website, which is clearly designed this way, intentionally. So I'm now lumbered with 2 wall lights I wouldn't put anywhere near my walls the quality is so bad. Please dont purchase via Ambience. Appalling product and appalling customer service.

Hello Lyndsey,

Thank you for your detailed feedback. I want to address each of your concerns.

Regarding what's included with our products - our product descriptions clearly state what comes in each package. I'm sorry if there was any confusion, but the information about bulbs and remotes is listed in the product specifications on each item page.

About the return policy for promotional purchases - I can see there was some miscommunication here. We've been in contact with you since July trying to work through this, and I believe we offered you some options to resolve the situation.

I understand you're frustrated with the quality and that you now have products you're unhappy with. That's not what we want for any customer.

We've discussed potential resolutions privately, and that offer is still available. Rather than going back and forth here publicly, I'd really like to continue our conversation directly so we can find a solution that works for you.

Please reach out to us:

I genuinely want to help resolve this.

AVOID

AVOID.

Before I start I would like to mention there was 2 orders placed on the same day for the same company so I’m disputing both. Ive attempted to speak with the company multiple times but they’re refusing to give me a refund on a “sale item” even though it’s faulty and keep suggesting other ways to use the product when it’s faulty. I’m tired of going back and forth with them as I’m getting no where. The item is a peel and stick wall lamp but doesn’t stick to the wall after multiple attempts and the has also damaged my pampas plant by falling within 2 minutes of being installed. When contacting them they said to drill it to the wall when it was purchased due to its PEEL AND STICK feature. They said no refund on sale items. Which I knew already. However the item is faulty and doesn’t do what it’s supposed to do? They also tried to then say that the 3M tape is not sticking to my wall potentially because of uneven walls or texture or dirt. I live in a brand new built home with perfect walls. I even filmed myself installing the lamps to show they don’t fit properly and they’re still refusing and telling me to drill it to the wall when I have dangerous electrical wiring behind the wall. Hence purchasing these “no drill peel and stick” wall lamps. They even fell onto my pampas plant and damaged them. In the process of damaging my plant the 3M tape has the damaged pampas feather stuck to it to make it even less sticky than it was to begin with. Extremely frustrated. I’ve also noticed EVERYTHING on their website is always “on sale” so that they can never refund customers regardless of faulty items or defects or do satisfaction despite having 30 day money back guarantee on their website. Time stamps are included in the screenshots to show item loose spinning around and coming off the wall with no effort or damage due to lack of sticky pads. Also how the sticky pad is completely inside the product so doesn’t even touch the wall

Update: they’re emailing back offering lights and replacement pads for £9.99 like I would give me ANY MORE of my money. They’re already deceiving and make it seem like the bills are included when they’re not.

Hello Sabiha,

I can see you've had a really frustrating experience, and I want to address your concerns properly.

Reading through your review, I can see several issues: the peel-and-stick lamp not adhering to your wall, damage to your pampas plant, concerns about the adhesive pads, and frustration with our responses.

I want to clarify a few things:

The product is designed as a peel-and-stick wall lamp using 3M adhesive. For it to work properly, the wall surface needs to be clean, dry, and suitable for adhesive mounting. We've been trying to help troubleshoot why it's not sticking in your case - whether it's a surface preparation issue, wall texture, or a product defect.

Regarding "sale items" and refunds - we've been in contact with you since July about this, and we've genuinely been trying to find a resolution. I know there's been some back and forth, which I can understand is tiring.

Your update mentions we offered replacement items for £9.99 - we were trying to offer you additional adhesive solutions at cost to help resolve the sticking issue, not to "deceive" you or charge you more money.

I think there's been significant miscommunication here, and I'd really like to clear it up and find a proper resolution for you. Can we continue this conversation directly?

I want to sort this out properly.
