Online Light Buying Guide

How to Traverse Buying Lighting Online

Shopping for lighting fixtures and accessories online opens up a large variety of options, but can also be overwhelming to some shoppers unsure of the real-life image of the product. Countless styles, sizes, and price points mean you need to consider much more than you would typically by just going to a brick and mortar lighting store. At Butler Lighting, we understand that buying lighting isn’t strictly about aesthetics - it’s more so about creating the right atmosphere for your space, while ensuring functionality and quality. Let us guide you through a seamless online lighting shopping experience.

Pro Tip:

Be sure to schedule an electrician after delivery is confirmed to ensure the best timing and no surprises!

Research Before You Buy

Evaluate Website Credibility

Before you click "add to cart," make sure the website is trustworthy. Check for clear contact information, proven customer service, and a professional presentation. Butler Lighting values transparency and provides both online and showroom experiences to make your transaction stress-free.

Reviews and Return Policies

Read user reviews to determine the product's quality and service reliability. Also, confirm the return policies to avoid frustration if the product does not fulfill your expectations. Butler Lighting strives to provide simple and user-friendly return options.

Warranty Details

Understanding warranties is important. Check to see if the lighting fixture has a guarantee that covers flaws or concerns. Butler Lighting works with respected brands that stand behind their products with dependable warranties.

Compare Options

Pricing and Hidden Fees

Be cautious of unexpected costs like shipping or handling fees. At Butler Lighting, we aim to provide competitive pricing, often with promotions specific to online purchases.

Style and Material Choices

The lighting in your home should complement its style. Butler Lighting offers a wide range of products, from modern LED pendants to traditional chandeliers, to suit any aesthetic or environment.
