This company takes no accountability for mistakes they make
This company takes no accountability for mistakes they make, if anything goes wrong on their end it will come out of your wallet. I am undergoing a months long renovation for a coop I purchased before I move in. As part of this I ordered 3 large wall sconces for the bedroom. The contractors received and installed them right away. Later on, I ordered 4 more of the same sconces for the living room. The contractors pointed out to me that they were different. I came in to inspect, and it turns out the first 3 I received were 3 of the smaller versions (cheaper, and not LED). I contacted Lumens with pictures of the difference, and they agreed that they had made a mistake. However, since the wall sconces had been installed, they would not take them back. Essentially they choose to blame the contractor for installing the lights they received, rather than taking responsibility for sending the wrong lights in the first place. Furthermore, the CS agent rather sarcastically replied "Thanks for sending the pictures which confirm that you have received your items" when the pictures clearly show the items are wrong. After over an hour of them trying to deflect responsibility, they refunded me only the difference in cost between what they sent me and what I ordered, and closed the ticket, despite the fact that what they sent me will not work. They are firmly expecting me to just take their mistaken delivery. I will have to get replacements at my own cost to make this work. Update: After leaving reviews around and filing a complaint with the BBB, they eventually refunded my order. I am adding another star for that, but I wish their own CS would have simply made things right the first time I contacted, instead of forcing things to go this far.
