Cons

Where it sits among rivals
On price, Sofary Modern Lighting for Less ranks 43 of 82 brands, with the lowest product priced at $53.99. On returns it ranks 16 of 109, a shade above the lighting ranking median of 30 days and level with the wider sites median of 30. Both placements point to a low entry price paired with a solid return window rather than either extreme. The overall score is 9.4, split into a cost part of 9.3 and an offer part of 9.4.
Pricing
Products start at $53.99, and that entry figure is what anchors this store's place in the price ranking. Delivery carries no threshold to clear: the free delivery threshold is $0, so shipping is free on orders at or above that amount and there is no minimum spend implied by a paid shipping band. Prices are listed in the range between lighting and decor pieces, and the same entry figure anchors both the lighting comparison and the wider home store comparison.
What it does well
Made to measure is offered, so pieces can be ordered to fit a specific space rather than picked from fixed sizes. Returns run for 30 days, matching the median return window of 30 and just ahead of the lighting ranking median of 30. Materials span glass, metal and wood, and products cover lighting and decor, so a room can be finished from one store. Against the lighting ranking, made to measure applies to 39.1% of comparable brands, and free delivery applies to 43.3%.
Who runs it
The store trades as Sofary Lighting LLC and is headquartered in the US. Orders ship to US, CN and CA, so delivery covers the US, China, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. Support runs on email, phone and chat, meaning email, phone, chat and a help centre, and the store falls in the lighting and decor categories. By comparison, chat support sits at 33.9% of brands in the lighting ranking, so live chat here is ahead of most of the field.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the cheapest product cost?+

Is delivery free and is there a minimum spend?+
The free delivery threshold is $0, so no order needs to clear a paid shipping band. Free delivery applies to 73.1% of brands on the site and to 43.3% in the lighting ranking, so this store is on the generous side of both.

Can I order a piece made to my measurements?+
Made to measure is offered, so sizing can follow the room rather than a standard size. Across the lighting ranking, made to measure appears at 39.1% of comparable brands, so it is a less usual offer in this category.

Orders go to US, CN and CA, covering the US, China, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. The company itself is headquartered in the US and trades as Sofary Lighting LLC.

What kinds of products does the store sell?+
Products cover lighting and decor, made in glass, metal and wood. The lighting and decor mix suits a single room refresh, while shoppers wanting a wider finishing range may prefer Sunjoy Group, which lists curtains alongside lighting and decor.
