A happy shopper wrote: "A beautiful light that isnt too bright. Perfect for our cosy living room, and it's timed so we don't have to remember to turn it on and off. Would buy more."

Someone else added: "Great good and fantastic value good collection." A different customer found: "Delivery was quick and had no issues."
Despite this, some shoppers shared less positive feedback on Trustpilot. For example, someone claimed: "The order came in 5 separate lots, 2 were delayed and then 1 of those was actually missing which meant I had to reorder the item. A lot of visiting the store unnecessarily. Store staff were very friendly and helpful though."
Another shopper said: "Really disappointed with delivery time. Although kept up to date with progress, had to shop elsewhere to purchase another until this item was arrived."
A customer who purchased a lamp added: "Now that I have assembled the reading lamp I am quite pleased with it, it looks smart, unobtrusive and works well. However, an envelope within the packaging said 'fixings enclosed' - it was empty, no fixings inside.
"The assembly instructions were on a scruffy, torn piece of paper and clearly didn't even relate to my purchase. Fortunately, it was pretty obvious what was required for successful assembly.
"It was very sloppy and irritating to include the incorrect information, please look at your supplier's quality control!" However, it's worth noting Next's overall rating on Trustpilot is 4.2, which is classed as 'great.'
