Buyer Beware

I wish I had read the reviews beforehand. I purchased a ceiling fan from Bulb Square that I wanted to return. They have given me the runaround for two months and simply do not seem to grasp the concept that in our market, customers return products for reasons other than malfunction or missing parts. There are plenty of other companies out there that do. Save yourself a headache and avoid this one.

Return of damaged good was fully refunded within days

We ordered three separate items. The first two arrived in great shape and are lovely. The third item, separate order, arrived with a crack. Customer Services was very responsive and provided a full refund (shipping and everything) within days.

Total scam

Parts of my item are missing. In order to return the item you have to pay a shipping fee and you are sending to China... Customer service is terrible. DO NOT BUY!

No electrical approvals and terrible customer service …

Received lighting within expected shipping time, however my electrician wasn’t able to install as there were no documented approvals on the fixtures or with the fixtures. I have contacted the company twice now over the last 2 weeks without any response or acknowledgment. I asked for Canadian approval documentation or if not approved for Canada, a refund (as they shouldn’t be sold to Canadian customers if not approved). I’ve been completely ghosted, wasting hundreds of dollars.

All’s well that ends well!

We got off to a bumpy start in terms of the two outdoor lanterns I ordered as the shipping was delayed. However, their Customer Service Dept was very helpful, stayed in contact with me and the lanterns arrived and look amazing on my patio.

DO NOT BUY!!!

Dearest reader,

I read the poor reviews but went ahead and ordered anyways because I really loved the fixture and was assured by the company that they took customer care and reputation seriously.
Firstly the fixture was missing the correct ceiling installation hardware, so off to wayfair I went to purchase the correct one. Then my electrician was not able to install and he believes the entire fixture is not operational....

So buyer beware, next time I will take heed of the bad reviews.

This company has got to be a scam

This company has got to be a scam. I ordered 2 bedside lamps that were actually on the more expensive side of lamps I was looking at, and when they came they are so cheaply made they can’t even be put together to stand upright. Save yourself the complete waste of money and just buy from a known brand.

Dear Kevin,

We sincerely apologize for the experience you had with our service, and we understand your frustration. We deeply regret to hear that your product arrived damaged and that our response time didn't meet your expectations.

According to our policies, we provide full refunds for any products that are delivered in a damaged condition. We want to assure you that your refund has already been processed in full. If you have not received it yet, we recommend checking with your bank as it may take a few days to appear in your account.

We acknowledge that our previous customer service response times were not up to the standard we strive for, and we appreciate your patience during that time. We are actively working to improve our procedures and are pleased to say that we have streamlined our internal processes to better handle such situations and provide quicker responses in the future.

Your feedback is valuable to us, and we are committed to improving our service based on the experiences of our customers. We're grateful for your patience and understanding, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Best Regards,
John

They Drop Ship From China & Basically Don't Do Returns

I ordered a $165 light fixture knowing their return policy said they'd accept returns within 60 days but I had to pay for shipping back to them. What they don't tell you is that they drop ship direct from China so returning this thing would cost $87 from USPS. So if I ship it back to them I end up paying $87 for a "full" refund (and that's assuming it actually gets to China safely). Alternatively, they offered a 40% discount if I just kept it but that would still mean I am paying $100 for a light I have no use for. DONT ORDER FROM THEM!

DO NOT order from this company

The light I ordered, arrived damaged, and was completely made of cheap plastic and rubber material when the website stated that it was metal and acrylic. I Emailed the website five times, sent pictures showing how it arrived damaged and asked for money back(over 300 cad) and still have not heard anything, not even a generic response email. Do NOT order from this company.

Beautiful leaded glass fixture

Despite frustrating shipping difficulties, that I don't believe were the fault of BulbSquare, the light fixture I ordered was a very pretty, seemingly hand made, leaded glass fixture and I was glad I waited for it to arrive. It is hard to tell online how something will look once you get it, but this fixture was well made. Customer Service answered my questions thru email and dealt with the situation as well as possible.

Excellent after sales support

When I purchased from this company there was a misunderstanding. However, the after sales support was very helpful. They resolved the case and I can enjoy the product. I love the follow up and the way they keep in touch despite the time difference. Will buy from them again.

Do not purchase from bulbsquare. They are a Chinese company. Takes forever to get in and then it’s impossible to return.
