Asked them to order a part from manufacturer that was around $100, they quoted me $300 and claimed that they had to add a markup... they tripled the price, the part costs more than the whole item. I can understand a reasonable markup but triple the price, thats not right.
The selection is great. Abraham was very helpful to us and we got a beautiful crystal foyer fixture on a great sale. However, the person who removed our floor model fixture from the ceiling and packed it was HORRIBLE! He banged our fixture around everywhere as he single handedly brought it to the back to wrap for transport. It had a crystal mesh netting and when we unpacked our fixture at home this netting was broken in several places. I have had to hand sew my $5k fixture back together. When I called to complain the sales person said, “Yes, I know he is terrible and this is not the first complaint we have had,” and proceeded to do nothing. So great store, great initial service, terrible packing and response.
Love the new look just doesnt seem to have the same friendly feel maybe its post-covid blues.
Looking for a statement fixture? Need professional assistance with a small lighting project? Need help with a large project? Just have some time to kill in North Austin. Lighting Inc. is a place Ive found that quite consistently meets, and often exceeds my needs. And most of their staff excel in customer service.
Working with Scott Bailey at Lighting Inc was one of the most positive experiences of my entire home remodel process. Lighting Inc was able to fulfill all of my lighting dreams at competitive pricing and believe me, I shop around for the best deals. But on top of that, Scott is truly a lighting expert. On site, he pointed out relatively inexpensive ways to optimize our lighting within our architecture, and we never would have thought of it, but what a difference. He taught me so much about temperature/color and provided incredible customer service from coming out to the house to evaluate ceiling heights and natural light to being in touch during ordering, even when he was on vacation! After getting my best prices matched and receiving incredible advice from a true expert, I highly recommend them.
Courteous and knowledgeable staff, great location on Burnet. Variety of lighting options
We have purchased so many of our electrical needs over here. Bryan has been very helpful to assist us every time we walked in.
Notorious for constantly having all the lights on, even throughout the night. And in this summer heat? What a senseless waste of electricity
Abraham is the best! He went out of his way to have a large chandelier delivered to us the next day. Thanks!!
If I could give this staff less than 1 star, I would. We we’re extremely excited about going to this store because we have a rotunda we need a chandelier for in our new home. My husband and I were ignored by the man with the ponytail at the front desk. We said hello, and he proceeded to look at us and put his headphones in. We STILL continued to shop through the store trying to see past his rudeness. Throughout our walk through, many employees were available and walking around but never said one word to us. This was extremely odd because we were the only customers in the store. At this point my husband was ready to leave. I decided to walk up to another gentleman and ask if he or anyone else were planning on helping or even speaking to us. I told him we were here for a specific reason and we’ve been completely ignored. This gentleman’s name was Mark. Mark, was also no help. Even in hearing the frustration in my voice, he didn’t offer an apology or an explanation as to why we’ve been ignored. He just got up and asked if I had any questions about the product. My husband decided he would give Mark a chance to redeem himself and show us around the showroom. Again, no real help in that area either. During this time, 3 more shoppers walk in. They were greeted... they were helped... their experience was MUCH different. The other 3 shoppers were white. The entire staff was white. My husband is black and I am mixed. Needless to say, we took our business elsewhere. I would love to hear from an executive at Lighting Inc. as to why their employees have failed the company with the lack of customer service to black customers. It’s disgusting.
Great bunch of people ask for Mark Stover or Joe epps
Knowing that we can count on you for the outstanding service, products and value that you provide is paramount to us. There are so many components to building and remodeling that can go wrong. We know that Lighting Inc. provides us with excellent customer service, upfront and also follows up on the back end. Even years after the fixture has been supplied, our homeowners tell us that you go back and take care of them if there is a manufacturer warranty issue. You might notice that I wrote service first. We have found over the years that our owners rarely remember or value the savings they get on poorly manufactured products when they fail or are happy for the savings when the service isnt reliable. You and Lighting Inc are at the top of our vendor list. It is a pleasure to working with you.
Oh my goodness gracious!!! Thank you Alyssa! She is so incredibly knowledgeable! I feel like I just completed a graduate course on lighting in a few minutes. She just made what I thought would be a challenging day problem solving into an easy breezy one! Thank you!
Excellent service from Kiki!
Order cancelled and refund promised within 2-3 weeks - it is now over two months and still havent received refund. I have called four or 5 times and always told it is being processed and I will get it in a few days. Filing with BBB now, guess small claims will have to follow.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Theyre always willing to help and patient with their customers. Highly recommend going in and taking a look around and working with a sales rep. They have fixtures that fit any budget and the sales reps werent pushy towards us at all which we like.
This is a high end lighting fixture store. The staff is spot on and give great advice. If youre looking for something inexpensive for say a laundry room youre going to want to look elsewhere. We bought a beautiful ceiling fan here several years ago and will buy new ones there in the future. AMAZING selection
We recently remodeled our home, and Lighting Inc. was one-stop shopping for all of our lighting needs. From our first visit, Brian was very attentive and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for installation. They have a great selection, and they can order anything you want but dont see in store. Highly recommended!
The staff are very helpful and give you recommendations. They also have a lot of different types of light fixtures to choose from..
Super helpful staff, very knowledgeable. Will price match and provide great feedback and insights into products.
Susan is my go to for all my lighting needs. Her and the whole staff are almost too friendly compared to other places Ive been and the big box retailers. They carry all the brands so you are sure to be able to find the look and style you need. Looking forward to getting more lights from them soon.
Always a great experience here, from design to after sales service, they are always great and very easy to deal with. Definitely worth a visit.
I would give 0 stars if I could. This store has lousy customer service. I walked into the store to purchase lighting for multiple rooms. I thought a salesman was coming to greet me as I entered the store. He wasnt, he was coming to the front of the store to fill his coffee cup!! I wandered through the store, made my selections, and was looking for someone to help me complete my purchase. They were all either on the phone or pretended to be busy so I waited a little longer. I was never greeted, much less acknowledged by anyone in the store! I finally left. If a store cannot greet or acknowledge their customers, they are certainly not worthy of my business. There are many stores in the area that offer the same lighting and great customer service.
Unbelievable! Lighting fixtures so striking they make you want to design and build around the art of the fixture. Look here before you design or decorate. Note: no table lamps. Bring your banker. Its worth it.
Gabriel provided excellent customer service when I called him regarding the status of an order. Very personable, professional and prompt.
An englighting place to buy lights
Awesome people. I purchased ceiling fans and all the lights for a new house many years ago. They were able to help me on some broken Globes that were no longer available
I usually do not post bad reviews, but this one I have to. Alissa Fischer in customer service is so bad. She took more than 2 months to place a fan order for our home. 6 weeks after placing the order she tells me the fan is not available. They still havent processed the refund for me. I am going to take this up with BBB. Horrible customer service!
Really cool place. They have tons of variety and you can get great deals on sales. Good service.
Great customer sevice. Good ideas. Gave me catalogs to take home and decide what I want.
Very cool store with a number of options for any taste.
Lovely selection of chandeliers. Everything was gorgeous and with fair prices.
I’ve been doing business with them for many years. Great products and service
Great showroom and service. Large selection of in stock items.
Super nice staff.
Tad bit expensive for me but lovely fixtures.
