My designer is in Minnesota and I live in Florida. All the lighting was shipped altogether and arrived all on the same day in perfect condition, including all the light bulbs for every fixture. Randy's patience, expertise and attention to detail is so appreciated. And he was fun to work with too! What a lovely human being. and truly isn't that what life is about, sharing the "light" of your heart with others no matter where you are and whatever the experience? For we all are the Light of the world. Thanks Randy!

I had an art deco lamp (see photo) which I rescued from being thrown out at my office many years…read moreago. The lamp has served me on my home office desk but recently the switch failed. I thought about fixing it myself but decided to hire a pro. Finding a place which restores old lamps which also had good reviews required some research but with the assistance of Yelp. I finally zeroed in on Lightworks. They did an excellent job of restoring my lamp. In addition to replacing the switch they also replaced the cord. They even found a plug which is appropriate to the era (see picture). They are not easy to find. They are located at the back of a rather large building with several tenants. Go north on 14 th Street from East Hennepin about 3 blocks until you reach Winter Street. Keep going straight across Winter on 14 th. It dead ends after about a block and Lightworks is on the left. In addition to repairs they have a nice selection of light fixtures which are restored originals or replicate vintage fixtures. Great if you have an older home. I highly recommend.

I came here with a friend to help her pick out lighting for her home. She needs overhead lighting…read morefor her bedroom, kitchen, and a fan/light combo for her sunroom. I happily joined to live vicariously through her life successes. And damn! I was blown away by how many beautiful fixtures there are! There was so much that was beyond my imagination. There were modern, vintage, mid-century, and luxury lights. Our style is mid-century modern, and we picked out a few that fit that aesthetic. Though, I would say there were just a few lights in the style. They were also somewhat limited on lighted overhead fan choices. But the best part was the customer service. We were able to build a "wish list" with an associate, where every item that piqued our interested was populated under her new account. There, you can review all of the details and customizations (like color, type of lighting, finish etc). There also seemed to be a lot on sale which was a treat!

After doing some research online, I discovered Fan Man Lighting in Apple Valley Minnesota. I called and spoke with a representative describing the symptoms of the fan stopping and when the Inteli-Switch was depressed the blades moved an inch then stopped abruptly. I was advised that the circuit board had apparently failed after over 25 years. Since the circuit boards are virtually nonexistent, Fan Man Lighting has begun manufacturing their own however, a replacement switch had to also be installed to operate the new circuit board. I placed an order at the recommendation of the representative and both parts were were shipped. I received the replacement circuit board and switch within five days. A QR code located in the instruction sheet, which was very clear linked to a video on how to install which took less than 45 minutes. Once installed, I still had the same issue. I called Fan Man Lighting for further assistance. The family business owner Jason offered to FaceTime me to watch what was happening with the fan. He immediately noticed that the fan flywheel was to low and had apparently dropped which impaired the fan blade rotation. Jason spent 35 minutes with me on FaceTime walking me through how to raise the flywheel and then tighten in against the shaft flat indent with a 3mm Allen Wrench. Successful operation was achieved! Jason stated I could certainly return the parts via UPS in the provided box for a full refund. My wife and I are so grateful for the assistance from Jason and his employees Jack, technical support and Alex, in sales. Though it took time to receive the parts, enabling further diagnosis and eliminate other issues, ultimately the Fan Man Lighting owner Jason took the time at no cost to us to be sure we were satisfied with a working gem of a Casablanca Ceiling Fan. We highly recommend this business for any ceiling fan repairs or replacements nationwide. It's great to know that they have the parts, knowledge, experience, and professionalism to service their customers.

Michael's Lamp Studio did a beautiful job in restoring them, with particular attention to painting the brass base of the floor lamp and restoring its functionality. When I picked it up, I was favorably pleased. The floor lamp operates like a vintage lamp living its best life, and its fellow older table lamp is still functioning beautifully after 15 years. The work done at Michael's to restore older lamps is very special. The proprietor's recommendation for a shade and finial were also tasteful and demonstrated his expertise. After the experiences I had with these two lamps (the table lamp repair of fifteen years ago and the floor lamp just recently), I am very satisfied and recommend Michael's. They are the very best for repairs of older, family heirloom-type lamps.
