Barbizon Lighting I…read moream a geek by profession and one of my hobbies is electronics so I am always in and out of electrical supply places and always in need of more and more specialized haunts. I recently came across Barbizon lighting on 55th and 10th. I was at a flea market and picked up a Lowell Stage lamp I wanted to convert into a house lamp. I needed to step down the 1000 watt halogen bulb (that could cook chicken) to something more reasonable. I walked over to Barbizon on my lunch hour and the guys were eager to assist me and genuinely interested in my project. This place does some serious stage lighting projects here in the City. While they were assisting me, one of the guys was reviewing an order with 25 line items for a stage lighting company--still, they did not blow me off or rush me out the door. In fact, I wanted to go a different route with my light altogether that would have cost more money and they worked with me to try a few things first which saved me money. I was able to step it down to a 500 Watt bulb, but still that is a bit bright even with the filters I have on it. They suggested a 600 watt dimmer, which I have but I am trying to maintain as much of the original look as possible and do not want to cut into the classic cord it has with the big on/off toggle. My next step is to swap out the FEL socket for a E11 Socket & bulb, which requires me drilling out the FEL socket and replacing it with an E11 socket. I have been calling all around the city looking for one but no one seems to have it in stock, nor were they interested in a single sale. I called back Barbizon and the rep said he would check and call me back. He called back in 10 minutes, even though it was bad news. I have to go on-line and order one. I love this place and if you are looking to trick out your digs, this is the place to go for some cool industrial strap hanging gear.

Was told that the product just arrived at the warehouse and would be shipped out that day. Strike 2 -- dont show an item as in stock if you didn't already have it in stock. Two days later, still no email or tracking info, so I have to call again. Strike 3. This time was told by a different guy that my order was refunded because it was out of stock. But I check online and the product is showing as in stock still with a price 2x what I paid (now in line with the rest of the online sphere's pricing) -- idk how many strikes to count for these events but it would be several. Why am I being lied to? Why have I had to reach out every time instead of proactive communication from the retailer? Why was my purchase price not honored like any good retailer would? On top of that, the guy I spoke to the second time offered to have the guy from call #1 contact me as he was the one running point on all this of this and of course I never received a call. Bunch of lying cowards at the fulfillment department of this company. Everything you dont want in a customer experience. Would never spend a dime supporting a business like this.

On the 31st I finally received the information needed to return the light and mailed it back on August 1st. It was received by them on August 5th and I have still not received a refund and today is September 11th. I have reached out several times to inquire about this and they continue to say it is processing. I have never dealt with such an unprofessional company and would not recommend shopping with them. I unfortunately noticed several other reviews about returning items and the difficulty other customers have had as well. They owe me money and have had over a month to refund me. Illegal.

The beauty of Just Lightbulbs is that they can look at a random bulb, identify it, advise you on the recommended wattage and find the bulb in their stock. If you ever find a better price for a bulb they offer, let them know! They take their craft very seriously and are clearly passionate about the service and quality they offer. Did I ever think I would be reviewing a place that sells just bulbs? Nope, but they are more than just a lightbulb retailer and they definitely merit a 5 star review. Although the lightbulbs I need are pricier than average, the bulbs last long and I've never had an issue in the past 8 years that I've been frequenting them. They are serving the community during COVID-19 and hopefully they will continue to do so far beyond my need of unique bulbs.

I did though remember Just Bulbs being the place to go for bulbs, especially when you need them for more than just light. They did warn me, though technology has produced an endless variety of efficient LEDs, those available today won't last as long as SWITCH bulbs. Anyway, they're located where some of the city best interior designers can be found, East 58th.

Illume Lighting Gem: LUCA…read more I cannot say enough wonderful things about Luca at Ilume Lighting. I called on a Friday afternoon, just an hour before they were closing, hoping to get help with my beloved Artemide floor lamp that had mostly discontinued parts. Luca answered and kindly told me to come by, while cautioning that they closed at 3 PM. I rushed over, and I am so glad I did. Not only was Luca welcoming and professional, but his knowledge was incredible--he had even worked for the Rondo company in Milan and knew this lamp inside and out. What a rare find! A friend of mine once spent four hours unsuccessfully trying to fix it, and Luca solved it in under 20 minutes with absolute ease. Beyond his skill, he was one of the nicest people I've met in customer service--genuine, thoughtful, and truly passionate about his craft. And I have to add: the most stylish and fashionable electrical engineer I've ever encountered! Thanks to Luca, my lamp is shining beautifully again. I will absolutely return to Ilume for all my future lighting needs. If you want expertise, impeccable service, and someone who genuinely cares, go see Luca. He's a gem.
