False Advertising, Inferior Product, Poor Packaging from China, Won't offer a refund as per own Policy - AVOID!
I ordered a dimmable light from Ellese and Co and when it arrived it was NOT dimmable and was damaged due to really poor packaging and having traveled from china. The light was intended as a nightlight for our hall but without a dimmer it is very bright and not fit for purpose. Ellese and Co first offered 10% refund, then 20%, then 50% and then decided to suggest replacing it with another Non-dimmable light and ignoring the fact it wasn't dimmable. Every time I was extremely robust in requesting a refund as per their policy. A point to note that their website and policy makes a big point of 30day money back guarantee. Absolutely not! After 5 email exchanges it was clear they were not going to offer me a refund and so i had to pursue getting the money back through a charge back claim, still ongoing. This company miss-advertises their products and then sells an inferior product, then tried to buy you off with a small % refund. I would strongly advise that nobody use this website. I can't embed links so here is the name of the light purchased: adjustable-spiral-table-lamp-for-modern-interiors-dimmable-led-accent-lighting-for-living-room-bedroom-and-desk-use
