Preferred Brands

Shop with confidence with a selection from Lightology’s Preferred Brands. Restocking fees never apply to eligible returns/exchanges on purchases of our Preferred Brands (excludes custom items).

Finding a good place to shop for fixtures often comes down to your personal style and budget. Customer reviews and photos can also be helpful to see fixtures in real spaces and hear how they perform over time.

“You should choose your light fixture based on the size of the room and the furniture in it,” says Sheva Knopfler , co-founder of Lights.com. This can mean one statement piece or multiple smaller ones. “For example, over a kitchen island, you may choose one large fixture or multiple smaller fixtures.” This expands the options available.

Choosing a light fixture is a great way to express your style and add ambiance to your space. But if you’re in the market for a new lighting fixture, the options can seem endless and overwhelming. Not only do you need to consider your needs, but you also have to find a place to buy lighting fixtures that carries what you want.

What We Don't Like
