Pros and cons

Pros

  • Free returns on eligible items within 60 days of receipt, long enough to see a fitting in the room before deciding.
  • Free delivery on orders over $49 anywhere in the contiguous United States, covering all items rather than a selected few.
  • The entry point sits low, with a Swatara Brown curtain panel set listed at $47.30.
  • Show it a lower advertised price on the same item, shipping, handling and taxes included, and the store meets that price and goes below it.

Cons

  • Orders under $49 in the contiguous United States pay a shipping charge, so a single small order costs more at checkout than the sticker suggests.
  • Free returns are limited to eligible items and to 60 days of receipt, so check the item before a large purchase.
  • Shipping and delivery terms are written for the United States, so shoppers in other countries arrange their own freight.

Who it suits

  • Decorators covering a whole room, from pendants and table lamps to rugs, curtains and mirrors, with free returns on eligible items within 60 days to take the risk out.
  • Shoppers whose basket clears $49, since delivery is then free anywhere in the contiguous United States.
  • Value hunters who check a lower advertised price before buying, because the store meets it and goes below it.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Shoppers placing a small opening order, since baskets under $49 in the contiguous United States pay a shipping charge.
  • Readers comparing renewal prices on membership plans, since prices here sit on products rather than subscriptions.

Plans and prices

Lighting New York is a store rather than a plan, so nothing renews after checkout and the figure to weigh is the product price. The starting figure on the home side is $47.30, quoted for a Swatara Brown curtain panel set that had been reduced from a higher price, so read it as a single line rather than a floor for every category. Lamps, ceiling fans and furniture carry their own prices, and a whole-room order moves the basket well past that entry point. Delivery is free on orders over $49 anywhere in the contiguous United States, while a basket under the threshold carries a shipping charge. That threshold decides whether the saving survives checkout, so it matters as much as the price on the tag.

The company behind it

The legal entity is Lighting by Jared, dba "Lighting New York", which is the name to look for on an invoice or a delivery note. The store operates from Selinsgrove in Central Pennsylvania, and the site is set up for the United States. Customer care takes phone, live chat and email, backed by a help centre, and that desk covers ordering and shipping, returns and order status, so a question after delivery has a clear route. The business is family-owned, and the people who answer a return enquiry work in the same operation that packed the order, which keeps the exchange in the same hands.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to order, and is delivery free?+

Delivery is free on orders over $49 anywhere in the contiguous United States, and a smaller basket pays a shipping charge at checkout. Product prices sit separately from that, and a Swatara Brown curtain panel set was listed at $47.30. Lamps, fans and furniture carry their own prices, so a room-sized order reads higher.

How long do I have to return something?+

Returns are free on eligible items within 60 days of receipt, which is long enough to live with a fitting in the room before deciding. The qualifier matters, because the cover runs to eligible items rather than every order, so a check on the item page is worth doing before a large purchase.

What happens if I find the same item cheaper elsewhere?+

Lighting New York meets a lower advertised price on the same item, including shipping, handling and taxes where those apply, and then goes below it. Sending the comparison in is enough to trigger it, so a curtain panel set at $47.30 is the kind of line worth checking against other listings.

Where is the store based and where does it deliver?+

Lighting New York operates from Selinsgrove in Central Pennsylvania, and its site is set up for the United States, so orders are packed there. Free delivery applies to orders over $49 anywhere in the contiguous United States, and the free shipping wording covers all items.

How do I reach customer service?+

Customer service runs on phone, chat, email and more, so there is a phone line, a live chat window, an email address and a help centre behind the same desk. That team covers ordering and shipping, returns and order status, which is where most questions land after a delivery.

What kinds of home products does it sell?+

Lighting New York is a family-owned authorised online retailer, and its store categories cover lighting, furniture, decor and more. On the home side the range runs from pendants and table lamps through rugs, curtains, mirrors and wall art, so a room can be finished without opening several sites.

What are the table lamps made of?+

Table lamp bodies are listed by material as glass, metal and wood, so the construction of a given lamp is visible before ordering. It is the quickest way to tell whether a lamp will sit comfortably beside wood or metal pieces elsewhere in the room.

Is buying here a one-time purchase or a plan?+

Nothing renews here, because the price is a per-order product price and the threshold worth watching is the delivery line. The starting figure on the home side is $47.30 for a curtain panel set, while delivery is free on orders over $49 in the contiguous United States.
