Unethical refund practices—check your bank statements! I ordered a bedside table that turned out to be discontinued. Online Lighting cancelled the order, but when they issued my refund, they quietly withheld $23.78, attempting to pass their non-refundable PayPal merchant processing fees onto me. When I called them out on it, they initially claimed… Read more
I had to wait for PayPal to send the rest. It wasn't until I formally threatened a PayPal dispute and cited Australian Consumer Law that they suddenly "found" the mistake and refunded the remaining balance. Passing business transaction fees onto a consumer for an order the retailer cannot fulfill is illegal and highly unethical. I wonder how many customers don't notice the missing funds? I will not be shopping here again.
The team at OnlineLighting.com.au were instrumental in getting a last minute project done on time when no other retailer in Australia could! Super helpful and accommodating. Great team, great range of products, competitive prices - what more can you ask for! Thanks guys, you really saved my hide!
One start is too generous. Purchased a product online and had to return as the electrician confirmed that it cannot be installed at my property. Initiated a refund request and they told me all these hidden costs with returns, where this is an online shop?? What kind of online retailer charge excessive fees for returns?? The purchase was $265… Read more
and I got $100 less in refund. If you try to dispute with them they will tell you that it's their policy. I guess scamming can be a policy these days.

Fantastic customer service and description as described in advertising products What see is what you get!! Costs extremely reasonable Great job guys keep up the great work!
I was worried about purchasing bedside lamps online, but I need not have worried, the lamps were packaged so well, and when I unpacked and placed them they were exactly as described. I would highly recommend Online Lighting and Living.
The pendant light arrived on time and was very well packaged. There were no defects at all, and the quality is exactly as described. Very happy with the purchase and the smooth delivery process. Highly recommended!
We finally got our three pendant lights installed, and we couldn’t be happier with how they look! Ordering them was super easy, though delivery dragged on a bit—we had to chase up the courier and confirm when we wanted them dropped off. Once they arrived, though, the wait was worth it. The lights are gorgeous, well-made, and they’ve completely transformed the space. Definitely glad we chose them!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Great Quality and Fast Delivery I purchased two black SAL 20W up/down LED lights (240V) and couldn’t be happier. They arrived in a very timely manner, were well-packaged, and in perfect condition. The build quality is excellent, the lights feel solid, and they look great once installed. Bright, modern, and exactly as described. Would definitely buy again and highly recommend to others.

Elegant and functional Tiffany floor lamp that illuminates two rooms. As promised, arrived with the leadlight intact, as well as the two bulbs ordered. Thrilled.
Great service and fast delivery. The outdoor pendant is better than expected. I will certainly buy again. Show reply
Fits great, delivery on time as expected, product good for value, basic installation
Couldn't be happier. Stunning classy lamps, good communication & delivery times. Many thanks!
Very helpful with sourcing some lamp shades that were no longer in production. Very knowledgeable and fast service. Will use them again
Shopped online from interstate, site is easy to navigate, a great categorised selection of lighting, competitive pricing, goods received in the expected time frame, extremely well packed, very happy with the products they look even better than the photo.

I was very pleased with the help they provided me to enable the purchase of a light shade that would fit a fan we purchased a long time ago. The sales consultant was very polite, when he was not sure I was ordering the right shade, he referred it… Read more

Disappointed about replacement product and service – After searching the internet to find a replacement remote for my Aviator fan. I found "Online lighting and Living" i called them to ask questions about a replacement remote and was satisfied that they would send me a remote specifically for this model fan. Instead i received a universal remote kit and reciever. I called them again to ask why i now… Read more
need to remove my fan from the ceiling, pull apart my fan and install a new receiver? When the whole point of my search and phone call to them was to order the correct remote so i didn't have to make extra work for myself. I expected to receive the remote only, specifically for the aviator model that would pair to the fan without the fan being removed from the ceiling and being disassembled. I paid more money specifically to order the correct remote, for my fan so i can use it straight out of the box. The cost was almost halve of what a new fan cost to buy. I should have just bought a new fan that comes with a remote paired to the fan. I feel jilted and decieved. Before writing this review i called "Online Lighting" to discuss the situation, i was not happy to find out about the refund of 15% restocking fee deduction for sending me a universal remote and sender, when specifically called them to verify the correct remote for my fan before ordering.

Responsive and respectful Customer Service – Amazing customer service. Here's what happened: I placed an order for two pendant lights and want to change the colour. Wrote them an email and got a response instantly. An hour later, I received a call about one of the light I selected being out of stock and the guy was very apologetic. After I hung up, I went to their site and check and viola… Read more
the out of stock items were gone. Now you might think this is all normal for a business to do, but let me tell you, I have encountered online sellers who take days to get back to you and weeks to let you know if some items are out of stock. The speed of their responses to query is honestly quite impressive and that's all anyone can really ask for when shopping online - a responsive customer service operated by HUMAN and able to answer your query respectfully and quickly. I'll post an update once the items arrive. If they are exactly as shown in the pictures, we will be getting our lights exclusively from this place...and so should you!
Edit: light came. Exactly as pictured. Good stuff
LED TO REPLACE HALOGEN – I have a set of kitchen cabinets built 9 years back and each one is fitted with under cabinet lights. All looks great but one light unit failed and I could not get a "one for one" Halogen replacement as Halogen is no longer made. So, a problem ensued. How to match an existing light size and shape as well as the cut out in the cabinet underside… Read more
with a modern LED replacement? After much searching I ended up on the ONLINE LIGHTING page. They had suitable LED lights that would fit in as replacements as well as the LED driver which is also needed for LED. But I wanted to be sure first so, I asked them some technical questions, checked the LED driver was correct and then ordered. The lights arrived and fit exactly as stated and the LED driver also worked 100%. I am very happy to use them again and I was very pleased that they took the time to answer my questions before ordering anything from them, especially since I live in Perth and they are in Sydney. I will use them again should I need LED lights or Halogen replacements with LED.

Negative reviews
Not only was the product absolutely horrendous, I had to pay for for postage of goods, and still not received a refund. To quote the representative who I dealt with " if you don't like the service don't shop here" and then hung up.

Unreasonable turn arounds for returns and then no response to over 10 reach outs for our refund. Dodgy dealings making it difficult for you return, penalizing you with a restocking fee and not responding to attempts to obtain the refund.
Table Lamp KITZAF10385 Zaffero advertised online as 750mm in height, arrived as 670mm This is a much smaller version of the original lamp and NOT what we paid for ! Rude staff advised to complete the online returns form charging admin and shipping fees. This is false advertising, unaccountable faceless organisation - DO NOT USE ! Ara Kopoushian advised he is NOT the owner of Online Lighting
